Final Fantasy VII - Advent Children

I know there's a thread in c0r about this already, and that the majority of internet savvy forum trolls that we have here on TA most likely saw this film months before it's US release, but I figured with it's official release we could get a discussion going on in here... I'm about to sit down to watch the flick for the second time, but here's a cut and paste of my initial reactions to the first time watching:

Definitely a gorgeous film... Storyline was OK, but clearly trying to be a little too much like a video game with all the cut scenes, and none of the game. I really dug it, but I'd doubt whether or not people who aren't fans of the series would get into it. A couple things I wondered while watching it:

- Who the is Denzel? :wtf:

- I'm assuming it's because the film was made in Japan, but I wondered (note, I wasn't bothered by this, just thought it was odd) why they seemed to decide to change the more European featured character models from the game to character models with more Asian characteristics.

- The 3 "Remnants" seemed more like irritating school yard bullies than genuine enemies.

All in all, i was very satisfied and I'm glad I got it, though I think my expectations in some regards were perhaps a bit too high for certain areas.

Oh, and I will, without doubt, never, EVER listen to the English dub of the soundtrack again... Japanese + Subtitles FTW! The english dub was so bad it was laughable at parts... It's funny, because a few of the English voice actors (Cloud for one) were terrific, but the ones that were bad, were TERRIBLE... :haha:


Will be back with more complete thoughts later today...

amazing. my fav scenes all include Aeris, it's great to see her back.

a few comments

- story is avg, at least better than FF:Spirits Within
- won't be appreciated by ppl who havn't played FF7
- this movie could have been made into a game, which would have been FOCKING AWESOME!!!!
- TIFA is a babe! (do any of you guys remember her bounce for the ending of ff7? hehheheheeheh ;)
- love the matrix-y special effects

9/10!

Also, anyone have any new developments/word on the supposed FFVII remake coming to PS3?

I am really curious, considering Square Enix is working with Microsoft as well as Sony this round, to see if that FFVII remains exclusive to PS3... if it did, it'd sell a boatload of systems at any price.

the ff7 intro demo redone for the ps3 was supposedly just a demo. i read an interview somewhere from the lead square-enix guy that was in charge of it, and he said it was mainly that.. a demo, to show off the ps3 capabilities


if the demo becomes a remake, i will be the first in line to buy the game, maybe even camping out like star wars nerds to await the 2nd coming! :crazy:

OK, I had read something similar to that, but I could have sworn that I had just recently read an interview (also direct from Square Enix) where the prospect of a remake was seriously teased...
