Should a Zelda movie be all CGI or live action?

Should be like this. Would be glorious.
Just don't get Ryan Reynolds to do Link's voice.
One. It needs to be hand drawn. Two. It's needs to be a tv show, not a movie.
Basically they just need to do what the castlevania show did, just fitting within the tone of Zelda.

That's a neat idea and works well with the "legend" idea that the games do as well. +3 respect points.
CGI is the most versatile. I understand the desire for traditional animation, but this being a video game franchise that has been married to 3D graphics for over 20 years, I'm sure they can find the ideal CGI art style that makes everyone happy.
Kubo is the best Zelda movie we're gonna get.
I say mix of live action, Henson puppets, and fantastical CG.
I'm sure the same could be said for comic book characters. People will accept modifications for live action adaptations.
Whatever that doesn't limit the posibilities of the franchise.
Unlike Castlevania, I don't think they could pull off having Link do a lot of dialogue, so it would probably need to focus more on the sense of discovery/mistery/exploration and then some action, so I don't think Live Action would work that well as it'd look more like our regular world with some cgi monsters and buildings on top.
Having different styles and mediums also sounds like a nice idea if they were to make a series instead of a film.

As long as he doesn't look like in the Palutena reveal for Smash, maybe. Something more flat looking that puts an emphasis on fluid animation and the setpieces could be interesting.

Yep. That Miyazaki style is the only acceptable option for Zelda
