Doing it digitally removes far too much fun from a film! not to mention, it's less flexible, and more expensive. Imagine, no red carpet for the premiere! no behind the scenes footage/out-takes! A zelda film CAN be done with actors, keeping in mind it has to fit the character. eg - not brad bitt, or orlando bloom.

I'd not use main stream actors anyway.

Setting it before any game is probably the safest bet, and the smartest.
And i think i do agree with Link talking in a film, just be careful with this one, Link talking isnt usually dealt with well, "I'm so hungry, i could eat an Octorock" and "Well Excuuuuuse me princess" Come to mind. But im sure you could do a better job, + TP felt weird with Midna confronting Ganon and link standing by.

Well of course not the 'stuck in tower' idea, but eventually, it's going to lead to that on a bigger scale. Ocarina of time was the same scenario, she was in need of saving wasn't she?

My advice is to read the OoT manga books. His innocent yet boyish character is played well. Your going to hate me, but i DO like Link's over confidence in th e cartoons. I don't mean to portray it like that was, but he does know that he's above some enemies, and isn't afraid to show it. spider-man is the same, and it works.

The films would show and include -
Links destiny as a hero (as much as he denies it)
Ganondorf's rise to the throne.
Zelda's tollerance of Link (an example would be han solo, princess leia.)
How Link's acts of heroism affects Hyrule,
and how it benefits him against Ganondorf in the end.

I don't want to give away too much, but i do have a lot already thought out.
