You two already said your opinions to each other, the same ones, why say them again... ever? What, memory not so good these days?
The thing about Zelda is that the mood IS like Lord of the Rings. It's neither totally "dark" nor totally "light". It's a mixture, like a good story should be. That's why Spawn and the like SUCK, because they stay on that same note of "tortured soul" the WHOLE TIME. The great thing about Zelda is it is light and happy one moment and then suddenly plunges into the dark, only to see the light again. Wind Waker shows that off perfectly. (Wait until you have gotten further, or maybe beat it, to see what I mean ABF.)

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
