" A Legend of Zelda documentary looking to explore the franchise&amp;#039;s cultural influence is seeking funding on Kickstarter. It&amp;#039;s Dangerous To Go Alone... The Movie is seeking $50,000 in crowd-funding ahead of its planned launch in December.   Created by Joe Granato, the documentary aims to &amp;quot;examine the pervasive fascination for 8-bit gaming beyond nostalgia&amp;quot;, all the while exploring Zelda&amp;#039;s international appeal across cultural divides. &amp;quot;From the time most of us first touched the 8 bit cartridge, our lives were changed,&amp;quot; reads the Kickstarter blurb.  &amp;quot;As children, the fantasy game contained in that golden plastic NES cartridge was our initiation into our own imaginations. Years before we were able to delve into and appreciate the worlds of Tolkien, we became the heroes of this adventure story.  &amp;quot;The game franchise continues this day to inspire and compel new generations. Our film will be its own narrative adventure story through which it will explore the games&amp;#039; far reaching influence.&amp;quot;  Backers who pledge between $5 and $250 will be rewarded with digital stills from production, copies of the DVD, T-shirts, movie posters and more. Pledging the maximum amount of $250 unlocks the Master Sword Package, which includes a custom NES movie box, as well as bonus footage and a movie manual. Nintendo recently announced Zelda: Link to the Past 2 for the Nintendo 3DS, as well as eShop releases for Zelda: Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages.
