I love franchise movies.

Well, except for the travesties that are Ep. 1-3 (and don't get me started).

And that Dukes of Hazzard trash. Daisy was INTELLIGENT you MORONS!! And no, you can't just cast someone who builds her ENTIRE PROFESSIONAL WORLD around being an idiot and hope she can act smart.

Anyway, as I was saying, I especially adore movies based on series I loved as a child. I mean, I cried with joy watching Transformers, cried with sadness that Thundercats was going to be CG animation, and STILL want to be one of Charlie's Angels.

Being such a fan, I was delighted to learn that IGN.com has just as much love for these movies as I do:

To laud the highly anticipated release of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for Nintendo's new Wii console, we thought we'd have a little fanboy fun and play studio boss... plotting our own movie version of the long-running fantasy videogame franchise. While there isn't an actual film based on the game series in development, we think it's high time that Hollywood and Nintendo got hip to the idea of a Legend of Zelda movie. Who knows? Maybe they'll read our picks for writer, director, cast, etc., and get inspired.
Whether it's true or a classic April Fool's prank, I want the movie!
