It stars Robin Williams and his daughter, Zelda Williams, named after the titular video game character. Robin Williams himself has been a long-time Legend of Zelda fan. In fact, the idea to pass the name on to his daughter came from his oldest son, who loved the games as well. Now Zelda, who also grew up loving the games because of her father, shares the spotlight in this new commercial.

Fans nationwide logged on to vote for their movie, music and television favorites in the months leading up to last night’s ceremony.
The People’s Choice Awards were fairly low-key this year, no doubt a result of how the awards were pretty much cancelled last year due to the writer’s strike. Even though the People’s Choice Awards don’t really act as a harbinger for more prestigious awards, the night went very well for a few stars in particular.
