Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children

[Sockstickler]

This thread was inspired by comments on the "Ultimate Showdown (Of Ultimate Destiny)" thread, and I wanted to steer it here so that one didn't go off topic.
Anyways, this movie has been out in Japan for a while, and it's going to be coming out here on April 25th. Who else is psyched to see this one?
Oh, and Ethereal, so you don't get worn out watching the trailers, I came across a few other videos I thought you might like. Don't watch them unless you want to know some of what happens.

But yeah, who else is as eager to see this one as I am? 😀

 

[Ethereal]

let's pretend this is KOTOR
let's pretend that you're an alien with the option "get advent now or wait."

let's also pretend i'm a dark jedi.
trailers are no longer sufficient
i have dark side points.

BUT SQUEE ADVENT CHILDREN *salivates*

I'm not too excited. Heresy for the faithful, I know. I'm more excited about that new x-men movie that is coming out in a month (which I am only somewhat excited about). 😀

 

[Sockstickler]

Actually, I had planned an X3 thread as a follow up to this one, but it's nice to know I'm not the only one eager to see that one too 😀

 

[a1532b]

Haha, ST, we seem to be on the same page with many issues. You are a pretty cool guy. 😉

 

[Sockstickler]

As are you man 😎 I saw the cast list so far for the new movie and I have no idea how they're going to fit that many mutants in there.

 

[Ethereal]

well, yes, X-3, but half of me thinks they're going to tank it by putting phoenix in it

phoenix was a bad character implement in the comics at least..
but advent children is how we say.. more.. accessible right now 😉

 

[a1532b]

I wonder if they will all die and come back to life over the course of several movies...

 

[Sockstickler]

Aye, exactly. I insist on an on topic...er...topic 😛

 

[Ethereal]

someone should have yelled V for vendetta to off topic this again.

but advent children: nothing beats motorcycle swordfights.
I sort of wish I actually played through more than one part of FFVII

 

[Sockstickler]

Yeah, the motorcycle swordfighting looks kickass. And hey, at least you've played part of it. I'm trying to see if I can even track down a copy of the game in my area.

I ordered Advent Children from Play.com thinking the release date was February 24th. When it didn't arrive I checked the site again. Then I discovered what "disappointment" really meant. 🙁

You all do know that you can download a Japanese version with subtitles? The movie is awesome, excellent battle scenes, especially the Sephiroth fight at the end. They actually added more to the US edition because of the fact that it was downloaded over here so much, that they figured out a way to make us actually go out and buy it if we already have it downloaded. It's like.... An extra 45 minutes I believe. Still can't wait to check it out. On the X3 note it sucks that Nightcrawler won't be in the movie, he was one of my favorite X-Men, along with Bobby Drake, yet the movie version is so gay, lol.

Well, if they think they found a way to make me go out and pay for the US version, then I've got news for them!
They're right!!!
Oh, I'm guessing from your name you are a gamer. In that case, you'll want to keep an eye out for the X3 game coming out around the time of the movie. It's actually sort of a prequel, and it explains where Nightcrawler goes.

 

[Ethereal]

that's what i was hinting at when i used all those subtle hey socks im a doark jedi look at me stealing things hehe

 

[a1532b]

nightcrawler gets eaten by a fish! 😀

 

[cyclypse]

Already have Advent Children. It's fantastic! Excited about the dub as well.

Lol well you do know the reason why is because the actor who played Nightcrawler won't sign, hence the reason why for the X3 Official Game, which is all about Nightcrawler, Wolverine and Colossus. Looks pretty good though, not sure on the game play yet, but maybe it'll be like X-Men Legends, loved the game it was definitely worth picking up, specially since it had Deadpool in it, lol.

Actually, it's about Nightcrawler, Wolverine, and Iceman. It won't be quite like X-Men: Legends. Each character has his own stages. They don't fight as a team, like in Legends.

Hey Socks, I got a copy of FFVII, perhaps We could talk in IM or something, and I can mail it to you or something. I'd want it back though.

 

[Sockstickler]

Thanks for the offer, but I'll see it when it comes out. I'm going to preorder a copy tomorrow hopefully.

 

[TheChameleon]

No no no no... I'm talking about the GAME... Final Fantasy VII.

 

[Sockstickler]

Ohhh my bad. For PS1 or PC?

 

[TheChameleon]

PS1, of course.

 

[Sockstickler]

Ah. I might have to wait a bit on that one then. I actually don't have any Playstations yet. I might be getting a PS2 soon though.
