i can't find a date for it to come out

All I've heard is sometime in 2004 for the Japanese release, likely sometime in the spring. Nothing on the U.S. front at all as far as release dates go, but Square Enix HAS bought the United States title protection for Advent Children. This means that if they wanted to, they could bring the title over. It's unknown whether they'll go through with it or not.

James It might be better to put spoilers in a dark text that is not easily caught by the eye as one is scanning the posts.

CaptainBubba Spoilers

Ya, the guy with short hair in leather is Seph's clone and so is the dude in the wheelchair. Basically he fights the clone for 45 minutes and thats it. :/

Or thats what I've heard from other websites and boards. I still haven't even played ff7 yet., being without a PS and all. :/

oedipus_wrecked The best way to spoil a great game is to make a crap sequel. I will probably see this just for the hell of it, to see if it will actually be any good. Though thanks to FF:TSW, I do not have high hopes.


As to what the movie will be about?

SPOILERS:






Cloud vs. the Sephiroth clones, I think. It's kind of difficult to think of a reason why a guy who looks a lot like Sephiroth with short hair in the trailer would NOT be a clone, though (unless we get some frighteningly odd revelation like "SEPHIROTH HAS KIDS!") Or FF:AC might end up having no clones and just THE Sephiroth with a new look. Who knows.

I would like to think of it as Cloud vs. Clones for now, and then see what other information comes up about the plot.

James Yeah. Like I said, I think that FF7 was never meant to have clear-cut answers to everything. You were supposed to just think about the whole experience, about life and death, and about the world and the effects our technological advancements have on it. It was more about reflecting on our own world and lives, than it saying, "OK, here's what happened."

But even so, it's better they made it into a short movie, than a whole new game. I think this way, they can really focus on some main points, rather than having to refill the whole world with quests and characters who will just break down everything that FF7 did.

timrpgland I agree that FFVII wasn't meant to have a sequel. No FF should even if they seem to scream for one. It's the concept of the series. The story of FFVII was so planned out and twisted that just by us seeing Sephiroth or Cloud, it muffs things up. Hopefully they totally stun us with incredible answers to all of our dying questions. It'll be interesting that is for sure.

Now I have to clean this mess I made on my keyboard.

Rongi Who the fuck is the dude in the wheelchair?

I'll see it, but I won't expect much. Especially after The Spirits Within
Oct 7th, 2003 07:02 PM
James It basically takes place 2 years after the events of the game (just like FFX-2 takes place 2 years after FFX). And it seems that Sephiroth has returned. That's all that's known right now.

budgetjiggalo Have any story details been released? I love that its being made, it's by far my favorite rpg ever, but I'd really like to know how they are going to continue the story.
Oct 7th, 2003 05:49 PM
Carnivore Yes, you are. You are dismissed from the conversation.

All I have to say to the new pics is

Keep us updated, James!

James Make sure you realize there's a second page of images.

Edited for scrolling, now that the image has been up for a while now.

Ninjavenom :O

I'm interested now, it's gonna be full of eye candy.

i can't wait to hear The Planet's screams.

James Just for those who didn't know, some nice quality pictures have been put up on Gamespot since the 3rd.

The recreation of the characters and scenery looks really friggin awesome. Aeris' church.

James I can like and admire the game for all that it did. But I still stand by my opinion that the game was never meant to have a sequel, while something like FFX did. And for them to make a sequel to FF7 is more of a way to appeal to fanatics of the game and make some money, rather than have any respect for the art involved in the game's story.

I'm sure it'll be great and all, but some things are better off without sequels/answers to questions not meant to be answer.
Sep 27th, 2003 07:42 PM
Carnivore Given my opinion that Final Fantasy VII is the greatest console game ever made, I'm sure my opinion on this is fairly obvious.

I have to go squeal with excitement like a little girl now.
Sep 27th, 2003 04:59 PM
timrpgland I'm not really to sure what to think of this. I'll greet it with open arms, however. The name Final Fantasy has lost its meaning recently with this and FFX-2 coming out.

James Well, the ones that showed up in Kingdom Hearts talked (aside from Cid), and it worked out pretty good.
Sep 26th, 2003 10:19 PM
Cap'n Crunch The only problem I'll have with the FFVII movie is the voices. They don't talk in the game at all. I hope they don't fuck THAT up.
Sep 26th, 2003 10:16 PM
Poxpower Seriously though, if you actualy played the games intead of following the usual "sequel < original" and "old > new" rules, you'd enjoy many more things.
Wow I so am losing my time with this, with a site filled with nostalgia driven people.
Like me.
