Link " gets stabbed in the stomach" smiling as he pulls out a meal made from 2 mighty bananas and 3 hearty durians
Actually that would just cancel out the two effects
@@notnaanbread wont it give u damage boost and extra hearts
@@emirkrso3447 no if a meal has two different effects they'll cancel each other out and you'll end up with no effects
@@notnaanbread I didn't know extra hearts counts to an extra effect.
Thanks for telling me this I haven't played in a while
Or just a few apples

Oof if that had happened wow 😯
That's exactly I was thinking in that moment 🤣

funny how the antagonist has a more badass costume than the protagonist
Green is the new black
That's like 80% of most games though lol
I personally thought that what ruined Dork Lonk’s costume was his weirdly black skin and colorless wepohns
Well, the 98% of people like black clothes combined with black coat and scarf. In fact .....*BLACK*
It's the edgy version of the protagonist of course it's going to have more badass clothes
Though in the games he has exactly the same clothes as link

Or is it shadow link
I love how at 2:19 Dark Link mimicked Link's movements, as afterwards Link noticed it and looked concerned and puzzled, he really is Link's shadow. Nice attention to detail!

Who else loved all of Link's hyaaah's?

Meee
Hraagghh
*HIP HAP HUP*
Dark link is blackfaceing
I know there will never be a Zelda movie, especially not one so violent, but this makes me want
Guess what
@@Josuh Chicken Butt
Habra una xd
Who's gonna tell him?
@@TwiggyShei just looked it up: apparently MGK considers himself the only possible choice for Link, and that kills any possible hype.
so what if dark link actually saw link as a whitish green light, opposite to how we see him? what if hes just from an alternate world where ganon is good, and evil is normal and hes trying to restore dark hyrule back to what it once was?
Killian Sebastian Craft But hey, THat's just a theory, A GAME THEORY.
not a theory. its a what if scenario. i want a game like that.
That actually might be the way Dark Link sees it
Gabe Busch id like a game with that. although i dont think nintendo would do it due to the dark nature of it.
then a what if fierce deity link was the missing tri-force piece and chose to become mortal like hylia to be there by her side. however his powers got locked in a mask when he did so?
Killian Sebastian Craft The bearer of wisdom usurps Ganondorf from his rightful rule with illusion, trickery, and lies. That actually sounds pretty cool. I want one too.
Well, looks like link is dead now
*pull out fairy bottle*
“On your way”
He just sacrificed himself to save your ass and you just tell him to be on his way?!?!
I was about to make the argument that most hylians probably have fairies to revive people but...probably not so XD
Just like in majoras mask, Link saves everyone then is told to go his way without going to the festival
1:47 YOU SHALL NOT PASS
LOL 😆
3:18 Fly, you fool.
Nothing will impress me after that Majora's mask thing
This was pretty impressive though
Yes that was amazing
It was called terrible fate
Agreed, that was a top notch short. I just don't think Link looks good EVER in the live action shorts. If they ever made a movie, it should be animated in 2D or 3D.
Which video are you talking about?
@@angie-ko7mw Majora's mask- terrible fate, you should watch it, it's REALLY GOOD

ghost plays it's an incredibles joke ;-;
so true
i would love dark link as a serious villain.
+Grace Bruckman I really want it to be really really dark
+leon2550 Well technically he was the final boss in Adventure of Link =D
+leon2550 I disagree. By making it just a small appearance out of nowhere in a very serene setting like the void-like room in Water Temple adds to the mystery and subtlety of the character. Is it a character? What does it want? Why is it here? Is it just Link struggling with himself?
+leon2550 that's one reason i love him
leon2550 He is the Final boss on The second game of Legend of Zelda

I would like a zelda game where dark link is the main antagonist
OMG yes
you mean zelda 2😂
+@@sandwichking6180 There's not really a main antagonist in Zelda II. Dark Link is used as a final test for Link by the king of Hyrule; I'm guessing to see if he's truly worthy. The main *threat* would technically be all the monsters over the area because they're all out for Link's blood so they can revive Ganon
zelda 2 exists
You want dark link to replace ganondorf ? or do you mean protagonist
I always hate how no one can get links hair right when they dress up.
lintlickerben
Agreed
Dewani90 the hairdo is correct. Usually it's mostly just the color! It's too bright a blonde in this vid unfortunately
you guys complaing about anything and everything...
Lone Knight yup
@Lone Knight Bcs no one can actually achieve the real feel for "Link" and this Video is shit and commercial
The old man seems kind of calm for someone who just lost his travel companions
Well seeing the way he resurrected Link near the end, I wouldn't be surprised if he could do / has already done the same for all of them.
@@charlesbargone7274 true
Charles Bargone idk man the guy is probably too old to be catching these fairies tho
True
Michael Gallardo I’m sure they prepared
That was actually pretty good. Makeup, costumes, choreography, special effects, sequence of events, actors, everything.
You guys should consider doing something like a mini series
Everytime someone got pierced with an arrow I was yelling "OH. OH JEEZ! OH MY GOD."
..And then Dark Link sent an artown straight into that man's mouth and out the back of his head and I was screaming "OH! OHHH! OOOOOOOOHHHHHMYGOD OOOOOH MY GOD WHAT?!"
oh my gosh me too!!!!
Well.. I mean.. i know rhis comment is 2 years old now, but what exactly did you THINK would happen if you pierced some one with an arrow?
link vs edgy link
Ikr?He's such a dick
At least I didn't leave Princess Ruto or Malon behind...

Is that a jojo reference!!!!!!!!
I love everything about this but Link... The actor just doesnt work as him. But i think dark link should be the main attagonist of a zelda game. (Sorry for my poor english)
+Antsa;-; I agree. I felt that the costume was off namely the hair and the ears were obviously cheap from the costume shop. Come on guys!!! at least put serious effort into the MAIN CHARACTER!! BUT everything else seemed spot on!! Thanks for the film
+Antsa;-;
Yeah, the actor who played Link kinda looked more like Kurt Cobain in a Link costume.
it's ok !!!📣
+Antsa;-; I no right? Xd
He si the final boss in Zelda II, I think it counts
Still just as good almost ten years later. Glad this came back across my dash.

First 5 sec: god these graphics are really good
After 10 seconds: ...oh wait

To those whom say that Zelda can't be a film or TV show, here is the proof that it can be done.
I agree. It could be an incredible movie. Can't be done? Look at Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit, or the Avengers for instance.
It can be done, but story was never Zelda's strong point.
Solid Snack What are you talking about? Each game built an entire world! I would hold "A Link To The Past", "Ocarina Of Time", and even "Link's Awakening" as better stories than some games we get now. There's enough story in these games alone for an entire TV show.
BigGator5 What I'm talking about is these games are made gameplay first, story after. A Link to the Past and Ocarina of Time have very generic stories. Link's Awakening's story is pretty crazy but it can be summed up in a few sentences. The stories in Zelda are fun to EXPERIENCE, not when they're told. Could they make a good adaption? Sure. Out of all the video games that could be adapted, is this the one I want? Not so much.
Solid Snack Besides, what would Link ever say?
Dark Link is so much cooler than the real Link xD
ikr
Who else has returned to this video after hearing the latest Zelda news?
I watched this when it first came out. I come back to it every once in a while for nostalgic purposes. I still love this.....
I love how dark link's attack strategy is so different from Original Link's in the beginning. keeping the shield on his back to cover himself and using the sword for front defense thanks to his reflexes and skills. and instead of tacking them on with his sword up close, he decided to fight them with his bow.
Simply amazing.
7 years ago.
Still one of the greatest pieces of film I have ever laid my young eyes on!
No matter how often I watch this, it's still as amazing as it was when it was new
Lets hope this is what the Zelda netflix series is going to be like.
***** It doesn't necessarily have to be family friendly. I mean, the zelda series went from E for everyone to T for Teen.

If they did do the series, corridor digital should be the editors.
+bluevoid Hold the phones, there is a TV series coming out? *dies*
Crap. I was so excited. Hopes built up and crashed.
Its funny how Link dropped his hat at 2.26 and it magically came back on his head.
Marvel: Uh we'd like to form a contract.
Dark links my favorite

Oliver Bengtvig Krog boi
I was waiting for the old guy to yell "you shall not pass" and beat the crap out of dark link.
Lol thats awesome
i was thinking the exact same thing ;)
Its 2019 and this is still a masterpiece and makes lots of sense is you have played breath of the wild
Edit: this was made 6 YEARS AGO and is now on my recommended!?
How does it make more sense because of BotW? BotW added like nothing to Zelda lore.
What about it makes more sense if you’ve played breath of the wild? If anything, it would make more sense if you played Ocarina of Time
Finally
There are two mistakes here:
1) shadow link won't attack other people, in zelda ii, he was created from link's shadow to challenge link, his purpose is to decide if link is worthy to receive the triforce and awake zelda; dark link is an evil entity (like demons) created to complete ganon's purposes (like phantom ganon) dark link is different from shadow link
2) link, dark link and shadow link are left handed
Who. The hell. Cares.
so? this video is the best!
Fercho210991 read the description
how do you know Link is Left handed? He holds a sword with the right (in any LOZ game I've played that is lol)
Ultra Sexy Chipotle I’m totally not trying to be rude and the video was super cool but link is actually left handed . But it’s whatever ,u know
Dark Link's cooler, mostly because of the Dark part.
Thanks... *grumble grumble*
Francis luther ;-;
Yeah.
But just good ol' Hero of Time Link is always awesome.
Michael T. S. I'm glad someone cares...
Honestly, dark link is just link's shadow. He's there to copy Link's moves and doesn't even go off doing his own things like the hero.
Link The Hero Yeah duh :P
the old mage is my fave. Behind the scenes he was funny & drinkin his whiskey
Ain’t his shadow just blackface link
That's racist
But you are right.jpg
Triggered
Nah man hes just got really bad skin condition
He's not imitating a black person, so no?
And yes, I might keep replying to year-old comments.
Literally shadows are black
I like Dark Link better than the actual Link TBH
Pretty much everything is perfect BUT Link
Agree with you 100%
yup
IKR
link the gamer He looks ok. They could've just AT LEAST gotten someone with actual blond hair and blue eyes. It's not that hard to find those people.
I hate to disagree, but the whole storyline of the video sucked. Where did Shadow link come from? Why was Shadow link there? What was the point of the battle? Who in the actual f*ck is the old dude?
The video quality was on point, but as far as the video as a whole it lacked serious luster and story.
I came back to this after a long time... Just because. I still love this little short. And I noticed for the first time in years just how expertly done this story is. I love how neither of the Links say a word, but they still do a great job at conveying emotions, like when Link noticed Dark Link is basically him and the look of confusion on his face. It was a really great animation that still has rewatchability today.
Remember watching this years ago. 10 years later and this is still awesome
2:07 LEGOLAS!
XD
I almost feel like dark-link was the good guy in this; I mean I'm sure he assassinated someone or something and they had a reason to be hunting him like they were; but he's still a major underdog in this scenario
he killed a chicken in riverrun
TrainLe Choo What a monster! :O That was someone's wife!
i killed that chicken one time and a dragon spawned in
They weren't hunting him though :/
Potato Pieception Gaming ah, but why would they have flares that signaled for link to come and deal with him? I get the feeling this was one of multiple search parties that had flares to signal capable fighters to stop dark link. Plus there were more men arriving aside from Link, meaning there were several parties. :P
2:52 both fall on the ground and Dark Link actually falls on his arrow and it looks horribly painful dude
Even after so long, I come back and it’s still great.
It really is awesome
was half expecting the old man to take the sword and hide it in a cave, where he would await a new hero of the land to come along so that he would speak his last words.... "...it is dangerous to go alone..." thus starting a new era.
The amount of awesome in this video is too damn high.
link, getting stabbed in the stomach: tis but a flesh wound *pulls out a whole meal from his pocket*
I'm happy that it came in my recommandation
Nintendo needs to take the pussy out of Link by giving him an M rating and making him badass.
Idk about you but Link has always been a badass.Just because he does not have a M rating does not make him a badass i mean he is a badass in all the LOZ series ive played except the Nintendo Ds games like windwaker they make him look weak.
ya its not like Link ever saved time and space..hmm They don't need to make it M rated, All they need to do is make a zelda game as creepy and deep as majora's mask... or an open world.
I agree to make it more badass, but the next person I see talking bad of WW will have serious trouble.
Even more, the gameplay in the legend of zelda games always has been the strong point.
Honestly, they just need to have good gameplay and make it realistically eery like Majora's Mask with at least double the story and lore hidden away than in majora's mask. If you don't understand what I mean by hidden away, look at dark souls for example. Just about all of the lore is hidden in item descriptions and LoZ had the stones and seemingly 'pointless' dialogue moments.
john rodriguez wind waker didnt make him look weak it just made him cartoony and a bave bold way of introducing new elements
He was pretty stupid to not have a fairy with him XD
At 2:33 they ACTUALLY start to kill each other
5x Combo 👌
That's the only way we'll get a Legend of Zelda movie.
Dark link was perfect but the person who played link shouldn't play him
Old Man: "I told him it was dangerous to go alone"
Kaaaaaaaahahahahshhagahhagahgahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahhahahahah I don't get it
I remember watching this ages ago. Still holds up, even after seeing the stuff you guys get up to these days.
That was so awesome. The FX, the costumes, the choreography. My hat's off to you.
Dammit link ! You forgot your fairy!!
gosh, Link is left-handed. Everyone knows that :/
Jk, great video! Wish it was longer tho
Well, TBH I am 90% sure that in at least most of TP and SS he uses his right hand... But maybe that's just a Wii thing? Maybe he is just ambidextrous (equally strong in both arms).
Lily Pike he's right-handed in ss cuz of the general public
Uhm there is different links between different generation and time. That is why in different game there is usually different designs but other Nintendo games don't do it
LINK IS TOO AWESOME TO BE STUCK WITH ONLY ONE ARM AS HIS DOMINANT ARM HES JUST THAT AWESOME DEAL WITH IT YALL WHO COMPLAIN BOUT THIS LITTLE DETAIL!!!! HE IS JUST THAT AWESOME!!!!!
Well TP had the motion controls and they have him mail despite their being dark link so I think they took more inspiration from TP
When i was 6 years old i was terrified with the arrow on the man mouth
Idk why but this video is so satisfying to watch
Dark Link: ha! you can't kill me! I can reflect every attack you do!
Link: *puts out hammer*
Dark Link: god damn it! not again...
2:06 I'm sorry but at first I thought that was Legolas xD
I was just thinking at the start of the video "Is this Lord of the Rings, or...?" XD
Yall are fucking stupid to think that :/
Luis diaz you might have just called people who never played legend of zelda games stupid
Lol
Nostalgia anyone? This was amazing for its' time and still holds a candle to today. Very well done, and I still come back to watch it every week or so to gain motivation for Legend of Zelda again.
As a huge zelda fan, i think it looks great. Good job.

Really loving the score
link is left-handed
wrong. Link's shadow is
NO
Maybe the actor is just used to right hand
MAYBE
In Skyward Sword he's right-handed
The only problems are that Link is left-handed and has no beard/five o'clock shadow.
+Sophie Ng (ソフィ) Link is right handed in twilight princess Wii, and maybe skyward sword?
+Sadenjaro he's actually still left handed they just flipped the screen from left to right in the artworks he's still left handed. Because most people were right handed they had to change it on the wii. But Skyward Sword is the only Link that is right handed. Because it was a Wii exclusive.
But good luck finding a suitable actor that also happens to be left-handed.
+Sophie Ng (ソフィ) The second I saw Link, I thought "Wat, Link is lefty. Time to look in comments for others complaining." And look what I found, nice to meet you.
Raymond Liu Nice to meet you too (^-^)
the least you could’ve done was made him left handed
maybe this was played on the wii version :)
@@dudlecore7358 we don't speak of that
If the actor isn't left handed, it would be difficult to pull off. Also, Breath of the Wild Link and Skyward Sword Link are right handed.
I think this has always been my favorite Corridor video
