I CANT WAIT ANY DAMN LONGER!!!!
Wouldn't it be hilarious if this turned out to suck goatballs after all this?
That's what I'm most afraid of.
You and every other FF VII Fanatic
after all this, if it does suck then the FFvii finatics are going to go on a running rampage.
Nah, I would probably run down naked on the streets, and spray paint all over my body saying that FFVII sucked.Quote:

SQUARE ENIX ANNOUNCES RELEASE DATE OF FINAL FANTASY® VII ADVENT CHILDREN"
Highly Anticipated Feature Film will Ship September 14, 2005, in Japan
LOS ANGELES, California (May 15, 2005)
Square Enix, Inc. (Square Enix) the publisher of Square Enix" interactive entertainment products in North America, today announced the release date of the highly-anticipated, feature-length CG film, FINAL FANTASY® VII ADVENT CHILDREN" (ADVENT CHILDREN). ADVENT CHILDREN will be released on September 14, 2005, in Japan, followed closely by a North American release. ADVENT CHILDREN is part of the COMPILATION of FINAL FANTASY VII, a collection of titles based on FINAL FANTASY VII, the seminal 1997 hit on the PlayStation® game console.
"Following the great reception we received at the Venice Film Festival for our special edition version, I am pleased to announce the official release date of ADVENT CHILDREN," said director Tetsuya Nomura. "Not only can our fans follow the fate of their friends and allies after the great battle of FINAL FANTASY VII, they can also enjoy this new visual expression that is the result of the technological challenges that we overcame."
FINAL FANTASY VII, originally released in Japan for the PlayStation® game console on January 31, 1997 and September 7, 1997 in North America, redefined the standard for role playing games (RPGs) and has since achieved record-shattering sales of over 9.5 million units worldwide (3.9 million in Japan and 5.6 million in North America and Europe, as of September 2004). Fans have long requested a true sequel, and with FINAL FANTASY VII ADVENT CHILDREN, their wishes are granted. The stunning quality of the imagery in ADVENT CHILDREN earned the title a special invitation to the 61st Venice International Film Festival and the Montreal Festival of Nouveau Cinema.
FINAL FANTASY VII Story
The story began in Midgar, where a corporate superpower known as the Shinra Electric Power Company used its monopoly on mako energy to dominate all aspects of life, securing political power in the process. Shinra's mako reactors dotted the city. However, mako was not the "wellspring of happiness" Shinra claimed it to be, but rather the vitality of the planet itself - the source of all life. Some began to realize: If we let this continue, the planet will die.
These individuals set up an anti-Shinra organization called "Avalanche," and began resistance efforts using guerrilla tactics. Among Avalanche's members was Cloud Strife, a former member of Shinra's elite guard, "SOLDIER." Though Cloud showed no emotion and was bound by no principles, a mission with Avalanche awoke in him the need to confront the holes in his past and question his very reasons for being. And that journey, perhaps, took the heaviest toll...
ADVENT CHILDREN Story
Two years have passed since the fated battle.
Though Midgar - city of mako, city of prosperity - has been reduced to ruins, its people slowly but steadily walk the road to reconstruction. However, a mysterious illness called -Geostigma- torments them. With no cure in sight, it brings death to the afflicted, one after another, robbing the people of their fledgling hope.
Cloud lives a quiet life with orphans, running a delivery service to get by. The loss of those dear to him during the great battle has left him with scars that do not heal. Overwhelmed by feelings of guilt, he carefully guards his heart.
Then, one day, a phone call comes offering work. The client is requesting protection from a young man named Kadaj. Before long, Kadaj's young and vicious gang preys on the orphans living with Cloud. But why the children? And more importantly, why Cloud? Faced with an inevitable battle, Cloud wavers: Are sins ever forgiven?
After a long struggle, the true battle with Kadaj - a battle beyond human understanding - begins
wow... that story sounds kinda bad. but then i've been sort of skeptical of advent children since the first polar express-esque glimpse of it. i loved the original FFVII game and would've loved if they stuck with the original stylized look and feel of the game. AC seems cold and the character designs look like lifeless barbie dolls. pluss it looks like they used mocap and i hate mocap. i just hope when the movie comes out they blow me away and prove me totally wrong.
is the movie going to start just like the game?, i mean when cloud come out of the train with barret and the 3 other useless moron lol
I don't think so. Unless they begin the movie with a flashback. The story takes place 2 years after the defeat of Sephiroth.Quote:

So is the September 14th release date still in effect?
