TGS 2003: Square Enix announces Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children

Original CG movie set in the FFVII world slated for next year.

At a second press conference today Square Enix announced a new twist on an old favorite with Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, an original CG movie using characters from the franchise's first appearance on Sony hardware. The announcement put to rest the months of speculation on a remake of Final Fantasy VII with the revelation that Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children would revisit the characters from the classic game. A brief clip of the movie was shown that gave glimpses of Cloud's and Sephiroth's new look and the high level of detail going into the CG. At present, the movie is expected to run roughly 60 minutes. How it will be distributed and what the final incarnation of it will be remains to be seen, since Square reps at the conference didn't provide many specific details. During a Q&A session following the presentation of the movie clip, the subject of a proper Final Fantasy VII remake was brought up. Those involved with Advent Children stated that if the original FFVII wasn't playable on current hardware, remaking FFVII would be something they would consider. However, with the backward compatibility of the PlayStation 2, it is still possible to do so, which lowers the need for such a project. Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children is tentatively slated for a summer 2004 release

WOOT!

Here's the excerpt from a magazine in Japan.

Sweet. Is this a movie or a game? I thought from the article it was a movie and the remaking of the game was a possibility, but at the link they were reveiwing the game... :confused:

I really think a game would be a lot better than a movie.

Reviewing the movie... Even some screenshots from it... AMAZING!

PS: Is it just mean or does Cloud look insanely like Tidus?

I wish I could understand spanish.

It's french, I think. I'll babelfish the article for you guys.

"Final Fantasy VII Advent Children, here finally the response to all waitings of the FF-dorks concerning the rumours which turned around FFVII for some time. Behind this name that would not disavow certain groups of RPG Making hides a film in synthesized images whose exit in DVD is planned for the next year. The history proceeds two years after the destruction of Sephiroth which is... euh... of return and which will rub once more in Buster Sword de Cloud. Final Fantasy VII Advent Children is the logical evolution of the series, there is CG so much that that is not used any more for nothing to make a play around (the malls of insult it is here , thank you).
"

Try to make sense of that. I can't really.

Yeah, it's french

Ive known about this for weeks...like maybe 2 or 3....

Anyway...It is a movie and Sephiroth has short hair...hes gothic (Wears Black Lipstick and Mascara) and Cloud has boobs....Any other questions?

I've seen the handful of screens they've got at IGN, and I'm not sure how I feel about it. First of all, Sephiroth looks like a homo. Literally. I've got a gay friend that dresses exactly like him, only without the eye makeup and lip liner. Second, I've been reading that apparently Cloud is the villain in the movie. That would mean Sephiroth would have to be the...not-villain...one way or another, it isn't kosher. The plus side is that it looks really pretty. The CG is amazing. I just hope the story doesn't eat a cornucopia of balls.

Yea Sephiroth looks like a homo...i mean....HE CUT HIS HAIR!!! and he has LIPSTICK and MASCARA....And when you see Cloud from the side...he has boobs...

They should make a FFVI movie as well, that'd be awesome. Nothing wrong with FFVII though, I just like 6's storyline more.

cloud looks like a male yuna. the fuck is that about?

I agree, FF6 movie would be nice, but they probably wouldn't do it since the game is pretty old.

Yup it s french and i totaly agree ff6 movie would just be great!

Dear god, the greatest FF villan ever, Sephiroth (IMO)...

Has been turned into a homo.

Well, some of those pictures aren't of Sephiroth. The short dude fighting Cloud has a double edged blade, and we all know Sephiroth is taller and doesn't have a double edged blade.

Sephiroth was defeated at the end of FF7. He might have lost the Masamune between now and then.

Sephiroth without Masamune is like Emeril without Essence.

Even more evidence of why this movie could turn out to be enormously gay.

All final fantasy movies will be gay anyway. They aren't meant to be movies, they are meant to be games/interactive stories.
