Nintendo doesn't have the best track record when in comes to non-Pokemon major motion picture releases. 

There's the most glaring infraction that comes in the form of the John Leguizamo and Bob Hoskins variety, and what's amazing is that a Legend of Zelda film seems ready and packaged for a big screen release. This test footage from a 2007 CGI Zelda  pitch from Adam Holmes shows what might have happened if we had been treated to a full length feature in Hyrule. The clip is only 90 seconds, but it's more than anything else we've seen resembling a Zelda feature. Take a look and let us know what you think.
