Hey, everyone. We just wanted to let you know that Dec. 31 was the last day that The Hero of Time was available for viewing. We came to an agreement with Nintendo earlier this month to stop distributing the film. In the spirit of the holiday season they were good enough to let us keep the movie up for you to watch and enjoy through the end of 2009, but not past 2009. We understand Nintendo’s right to protect its characters and trademarks and understand how in order to keep their property unspoiled by fan’s interpretation of the franchise, Nintendo needs to protect itself — even from fan-works with good intentions.
This has been quite an adventure for us and we have a real sense of peace bringing the project to a close. Between the screenings and the online release many of you were able to see the film and we hope to not have only inspired those of you that live, breathe and dream Zelda but we also hope to have inspired all of you aspiring filmmakers out there! Thank you again for all your patience with the project and we hope you had as much fun watching our movie as we did making it. Thanks for all your wonderful messages of encouragement and support! I’m sure our next project will be right around the corner! No, it’s not Majora’s Mask : )
Hey everyone, we will not be releasing the DVD files for download at this time; but you can still head over to dailymotion.com/theherooftimemovie to watch the film online! So sorry for the inconvenience.

GREAT NEWS! On September 12th, 2009 we’re bringing The Hero of Time to the Tribeca Cinemas theatre in NEW YORK CITY!!! We are planning on two screenings – 7:15 and 9:15PM. Doors open for the first showing at 7:00PM, so be sure to show up early! For those of you not anywhere near New York City; don’t fret. You can still sign up for HoT SPOTS!
Sorry it has taken us so long to organize these next screenings. We know some of you are annoyed that we haven’t announced a list of places the movie will screen. As we’ve mentioned from the start, this is a not-for-profit venture from Legend of Zelda fans. We hope that if this screening works out, the HoT SPOTS will build momentum and everyone will see it on something other than a 20-part-low-res-Youtube-playlist : )
Thanks again for your support and for being patient with us!
Thank you so much to everyone who came out to the World Premiere here in Atlanta! We were astonished to hear the great many miles many of you traveled to attend. It meant a lot to us. We had a fantastic turn out for both screenings, and had a rather encouraging response from the attendees! If you missed the event, don’t fret! Cause A.) you can watch the event video, and it will be just as though you were there; and B.) you still can sign your city up for a HoT SPOT!
A great many of you have been asking if the film will be released online or on DVD at this time. We plan on it, but not quite yet. We want to hold at least a few more screenings in a couple cities and festivals first, so at least some of you have the chance to see it on the big screen! (Sign up here)
Because of the feedback and turnout during our world premiere in Atlanta we became very confident about the HoT SPOTS idea, and are more excited than ever to bring the film to your city! The only problem is that we still need a lot more people to sign up. So, start spreading the word to friends in your city! We could use your support! If you are interested in helping,
you can:
Post the trailer anywhere online and put the poster anywhere! Online, at your school, or on your local billboard!
Send us recommendations of websites to get in touch with! (info@theherooftime.com)
Volunteer to showcase The Hero of Time material on your website!
Thanks again, and remember, you can register for a screening in a city near you on our HoT SPOTS page.
