A Look At The Legend of Zelda Animated Series
The site Gamers with Jobs has up an article discussing the merits of the Legend of Zelda TV series DVD set, and reflecting on the show itself. From the article: "As a rational inquirer who is interested in my own role in the world, I am forever bound to the task of describing just what factors make me what I am. I am therefore thankful for this DVD release; for I am indeed a product of my time, and, in spite of my more conscientious wishes otherwise, I cannot deny that this animated Zelda series represents an important formative component of my own personal history. For anyone who can say the same, the modest purchase is a no-brainer." Totally worth sitting through Captain Lou Albano for.
There are some cartoons I just LOVED from my youth that I've since realized are not quite as good as I remember them being. I downloaded some Captain N and Thundercats about a year ago and never realized just how bad those shows really were. I'd hate to see Zelda fall to that same fate. I'd like to remember Zelda as the cartoon that I fondly watched just before going to the video store for my weekly video game rental each Friday, not as I'd see it today if I watched it.
