Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children is the perfect way to complete the story, as well as make up for the error that was "The Spirits Within". Personally the story could have been done a bit more meticulously, but the execution of the existing plot is flawless. Scene transitions from present day Midgar to flashbacks of Meteor to the destroyed Midgar Cannon the bewildering transformation of Kadaj to Sephiroth are all beautifully done. Even a Shakespearesque comic relief is implemented in the chapel as a familiar tune echos in the air as the fight scene between Tifa and Loz ends.
Any fan of FFVII will recognize various characters, scenery and landmarks from the game. Each character is beautifully crafted, and Square made sure an appropriate entrance did each character justice. (Just wait til you see how Vincent enters the movie, you'll crap yourself) From Cid's decent from the skies to the dark figure of Vincent (once again, worth crapping your pants and feeling no remorse over it).
The highlight of the movie personally, wasn't the fight with Sephiroth. Near the middle of the movie, the cloaked figure in the wheelchair (if you don't already know, I wont spoil it here, but PM me and I'll tell you) angers Kadaj the lead gang member who summons Bahamot. Bahamot then begins to attack Midgar mercilessly.
Without a doubt, Advent Children is going to be a movie video game fans will be telling their grandchildren about. I know I will.
I think it comes out in Spring of this year.... but these things are always delayed. Damn you bastards. But it is a good movie, I've only seen it in subtitles though.
I watched it last yearin Japanese w/ English subtitles. I think it's how videogames should look and play like today. It's much better in terms of story then the first Final Fantasy movie and soooooo... many other CGI movies that have come out and are just lame like Chiken Little, Ice Age and others. This movie will be out on April 6th or 16th in the US and even though I want it for my psp, I already have it on my psp and the DVD version contains so many more extras that the umd doesn't. We should all write to Sony and tell them there is nothing wrong in selling 2 umds for a movie, 1 for the movie itself and the other for all the extra features, deleted scenes, etc.
