Punching Up, Episode 14 | The Zelda Movie: Nintendo and Sony Team Up (Patreon)

This Is Dustin. We have created a new episode of Punching Up and it’s ready for you to listen to right now.

The Legend of Zelda movie is real, but there are some deep concerns. First, is live action the right approach for the franchise? Second, are the people attached to the project the right choice? Lastly, Nintendo has opted to make the film with Sony instead of their recent partner, Universal. Let’s break down all the details and see what we can glean from the information we currently have. In addition, Nintendo’s recent financial report shows the Switch is still thriving seven years after its release, and the company shows no signs of slowing down. This may be the most jam-packed episode of Punching Up yet. Please enjoy!
