The Legend of Zelda: The Abridged Series

The Legend of Zelda: The Abridged Series is a series of YouTube parody videos created by adamwestslapdog based off of the video game The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Clips from online speedruns are used to create the footage, and the creator provides all voiceacting, leading to a very low-quality feel. However, despite the poor animation, the videos have become incredibly popular on YouTube.

Outset
Being a parody of Ocarina of Time, the plot only barely resembles that of the source material. The series begins with the Great Dooku Tree sending Navi to awaken Link and become his fairy (and get a squirrel out of him in exchange for a sacred Emerald). However, before Link can get too far into the tree, he lights a fire with his Dooku Stick and burns the entire forest down, blaming the incident on Ganondorf -who was saving children. Before Link can get away, however, he is confronted by Saria, who gives him a Fairy Ocarina and confesses her love for Whoopie Goldberg, causing Link to run away and head for Castle Town for no apparent reason.

The Great Cataclysm
After narrowly escaping from Kaepora Gaebora, Link and Navi arrives in Castle Town and meet Malon and Mario. In order to gain access into Hyrule Castle, they steal the broken milk cartons and get a job for the Royal Family. However, before they can do so, Link sees Princess Zelda for the first time and falls in love with her (though the infatuation is one-sided). Zelda then instructs Link and Navi to get the three Spiritual Stones for her to stop the evil orphanage builder Gannondorf (though only because she thinks they're pretty). With that, they are escorted out.

Soon, Link arrives in Kakariko Village and climbs Death Mountain (though not without some delay from a soldier) and meets with the party-happy Darunia, who tells him to feed his giant pet Dodongo and listen to his 74 songs about partying. During their efforts to feed Dodongo, though, Link accidently feeds it a Bomb, but still gets his Spiritual Stone. Later, in the Zora's Domain, Link and Navi meet King Zora XVI, who sends them into Lord Jabu-Jabu to retrive his daughter, but they wind up killing the giant fish's brain. However, Princess Ruto is rescued, and hands over the Stone (and her heart) to the pair.

With all the stones in hand, Link returns to Zelda, but finds her on the run from the well-intentioned Gannondorf, and has to go into the Temple of Time to await his punishment. Unfortunatly, Link's curiosity cannot be contained, and he pulls out the Master Sword, giving Gannondorf access to the Sacred Realm while Link is frozen. When he wakes up 7 years later, Rauru makes him go and get the other six Sages to build a magic bridge (even though he could hire a bridgebuilder) because he has the Triforce of Courage. Before he sets out however, Sheik shows up and informs Link that Gannondorf found out his ancestry and turned Hyrule into a nightmare.
