    Ff Vii-2

    *****POTENTIAL SPOILERS AHEAD*****


    Yeah, I noticed that there wasn't a thread on this yet(I think...)

    I read about it in Game Informer, and saw these beautiful screenshots. I think it is only going to be a movie, but Square Enix is going to re-release FF VII on PS2 (hopefully with updated graphics). The movie might come boxed with it...I think.

    Screen Shots thanks to GI

    Yeah, that's the pretty mean CG movie! I saw the trailer for it on my friend's computer a while ago, and it looks nice as well as hyping. "THIS is what the first Final Fantasy movie should have been" is probably the magic quote everyone is gonna be saying.

    I didn't know there's a chance for a game version of it. They probably will just only stick to the movie.

    I read they are not re-releasing the game with updated graphics. And the upcoming 2004 OVA is called Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children.

    Those screen shots look pretty cool and it would have been good if they were planning to release this as a game but i guess yu can't have everything. By the way is it me or does the new model of Cloud look almost a copy of Tidius from FFX.

    Could be. It does, kind of. But, I think he works great for Cloud. Too bad a game this great wouldn't ever happen to work. . . But. The FF series hasn't really put me down once yet. Suu. I'm not complaining. ;P

    Well. I won't lie. FFX-2 ish a little--. . .

    FF:AC updated info

    Music

    On the official FF: Advent Children site it states Nobuo Uematsu will introduce new music themes into the movie however he also said that the three most famous themes from the game 'One Winged Angel, the main theme and Aeris's theme' will most likely play a part in areas of the movie.

    Characters

    Cloud as we all know is featured as the main character except he wears a slight change in clothing.

    Sephiroth's role is unclear... most likely will feature as a flashback but this is uncertain. In the trailer there is a white caped man on a wheelchair... rumours say that this 'could' be Sephiroth.

    Barret will feature... little is known about him, but he has a modified right arm weapon

    It is unclear if the cloaked figure jumping from the sky is Vincent in one of the screenshots, but some japanese magazines has already stated that this is Vincent for sure.

    Aeris's was in one of the screenshots floating in the water in front of Cloud.

    Grey haired enemy... seen fighting Cloud. Cloned Sephiroth? Controlled by Sephiroth? we are yet to find out.

    That's the cast lineup thus far. More info will be added as more is revealed about the movie.

    Keep an outlook for updated news on this thread.

    That for sure would be a great. The only city known at the moment is Midgar as shown in the trailers as a half destroyed city. Wutai would be quite grand come to the think of it but I doubt it'll feature unless Yuffie is in it. Nibelheim is likely to feature too. Now what will brighten up the movie are chocobos.

    I wonder if we will see different colored chocoboes in FF:AC? Not just the usual yellow chocobo, but the blue, red, black ones.

    Some fansubbers have released an english transulated sub of the trailer, which explains a lot. :D

    Been reading through the theories section which is newly posted up.. Some nutsey ideas about, but it's all plausible. The main mystery is the wheelchair person... Spethiroth? Aeris? or Hojo? these seem to be the main ones mentioned.

    As for chocobos, I think they'll be more of a background cast rather than in th movie itself (if any that is...) but there's too much unexplained things about to even start thinking about possible character appearances. One way or the other it is established that Barret, Vincent, Aeris, Septh and Cloud are in it.

    Is Aeries in it as a character? Or just as a memory that one of the characters, most likely Cloud revisits?

    Also, on Vincent, I thought it was just a theory that the guy jumping at the camera was him? Has it been confirmed? 'Cause he was my second favourite character in it, and i'd love to see some of his transformations from the game given more story tbh.

    Personally, I'd prefer to see my favorite character in there. I know it's not goign to happen, I know for a fact that they won't have him in there. Because no one gives him the credit that is due. ;_;

    That character, of course, is the one and only Zack.
