Final Fantasy XII: Advent Children (2 Viewers)

Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children

The dvd will be released in Japan on September 14. The english version is rumoured to be coming out in november.

I've actually just watched this movie (thank god for bittorent). AND ITS AWESOME!! Well worth the hype and wait that has led up to its release. If you played FF7, you'll love the movie. I felt quite nostalgic and teary seeing all the FF7 cast on the screen; tifa, cloud, barret, vincent... makes me feel like playing the game all over again.

Graphics were amazing, so were the action scenes.

Too bad they didnt choose to release Advent Children as a full featured movie, rather than just releasing it on dvd. I guess its because Advent Children does focus on Final Fantasy 7 alot, so you'd need to know you're jenovas, life forces, shinras, makos... etc to fully appreciate it.

But yeh.. dvd should be coming out at the end of the year. Get it.. it's worth it.

Yeah the movie leaked (or was it an early release?)

Heard it was good too but I think for the die hard fans only.

 

[fantasia]

^ I guess it was leaked 1-2 days early on the net.

Even if you didnt play FF7, you'll still be able to enjoy the action/graphics and about 50% of the story. But yeh those who did play the game would have a better understanding of whats going on.

I think a lot of people are put off by the last film Final Fantasy that left Squaresoft bankrupt.

Its really a carry-on story from FF7 and you get so much more out of the film if you know what FF7 is.

 

[tempco]

bah, i haven't played ff7, but who cares. looks awesome.

 

[Lavenderpup]

the story is nothing compared to ff7's, but that's alright because i wasn't really paying attention to it. this movie is just damn beautiful to watch

ff7 plot is alot more complex and would have confused the jeepers out of people new to ff7. The ending kind of leaves some room for FF:AV 2... but i dont know.

Yeah there might be a sequel, given the ending and if your thinking what I'm thinking. (I wish I knew how to do those mouse-over to reveal messgae tags).

But yeah, just watching it, if you've never played FF7 or know what the story is about and who the chracters are then your going to be VERY confused. It is not meant to be a stand-alone movie but it's great to watch nonetheless.

I've been tempted so many times to do that.

As for the spoiler.

Spoiler

If there was to be a sequel it is most likely to evolve around Rufus (that was kinda obvious)

 

[funniboi]

oh man i just watched it.


pretty awesome.

i love how everyone gets back together, and works together again!

i hope there is no sequel, it might ruin it!

You do realise that XII = 12, not 7....

 

[fantasia]

^ oh yeh... its been a while since i used roman numerals.

 

[Kazuya]

Haven't seen the movie (are they releasing it locally?) but oh man the trailer is amazing, especially seeing all the characters in action around the 1:30 mark - Yuffie, Vincent and Cid = cool as ever. Even seeing Reno and Rude was something. And nice choice for One Winged Angel as the bgm.

 

[fantasia]

^ yeh they should be releasing it locally.

the english version will be coming out in the US in around November. So it should be coming out here at around the same time.

Hahaha, never noticed that.

ALl I know is there are five Rocky films, and Rocky V is the fifth film (Adrians Revenge?)
