Advent Children

[gokuDX7 2,871]

I don't know if I should post this but If it's braking rules then just delete the thread

Anyway Has anyone seen it yet? If so what did you think? I think it totally kicked ass to the max.

Cloud's Sword's where so cool at the end when he does that attack, I think it was omni slash? Also I didn’t understand are cloud and Tifa married or are they just housing orphan children?

there's already thread in games and movie section.

am i the only one here thinks it was matrix rip-off? fighting scene didnt impressed me at all.

[Ladywriter 7,783]

They were all fighting in haste X'D

Cloud and Tifa

were just looking after the kids together, she even says something like 'because we arent a real family?' when they argue a lil.

[gokuDX7 2,871]

@slippers - ya your right It was somewhat like the Matrix.

I found it funny when they where tossing Cloud up the building.

Hmm ya but

The young girl thats not effected by the disease looked somewhat like Tifa and theres a photo with Cloud, Tifa and the young girl. Thats the only reason why I asked. Just seemed weird at the time.

i don't know.. the story was decent, but nothing spectacular.. but the visuals were great, and i rather liked the fight scenes .. in spite of the fact that they looked overly choreographed..

[Pchan 5,162]

The movie looks super eye-candy and the fight scenes are well done, sure.

Especially the fight scenes with Cloud on his bike against those two guys.

yeah, i got kick out of that. especially when he lands safely afterwards. didnt flower bed break his fall last time? you know, when gravity still worked.

story could have been better if there were some type of closure between cloud and tifa. that's what i felt was missing at end of ff7. however, they dwelt too much on cloud's personal struggles, which i thought he got rid of already before the final battle.

on the other hand.. barrett looked complete different person, vincent with unusal eerie big nose(maybe it was the angle?) and sephiroth looking like dracula, other than that everyone looked amazing. although i was so mad that they give red 13 only one line out of the entire movie.

but i do admit, teaming up on weapon(or rather bahamut(?)) was nicely done. i can imagine that's probably how they fought in games..without those mad flea actions.

my personal fav part of the movie was

when tifa seemed to defeated loz, there was strange tone coming out of nowhere, but we all know, that's victory dance music! X'D strange enough, it was played over and over and found out it was loz's cell phone. haha. that was nice touch.

[ByeByeBeautyful 100]

yea i was dissappointed by it too its just a matrix rip off

I agree some closure between Cloud and Tifa would have been nice.

BTW. If any of you havent seen Advent Children please watch "FFVII Last Order" first. If you don't you will have some black spots in the story or you will be kicking your self later.

For example I was wondering why Cloud and Tifa ran a delivery type service that did just about everything and anything. In Last Order it was Cloud's best friend, Zacks who wanted to run a company that does anything; just before Cloud was about to be shot Zacks said that and moved in front of the bullet.

Also Last Order ties in how Sephiroth jumps sides from Hero to Evil Guy fighting for "mother" and how Cloud was put into all this mess because of a selfless act of passion to his family and village people (he killed Sephiroth, Turks found out and turned Cloud into an experiment).

Btw. The reason Cloud is always around Tifa is simple because he promised her that anytime she was in a “pinch” he would save her. There is a slight sense of love in Last order.

I believe Last order takes place right before the video game. So almost all the questions you’re asking your selves up to this point should be solved after watching this then Advent Children.

BTW. Last Order is only 25 mins long and it’s got all of the characters from the new FFVII cell phone game coming out called FFVII Before Crisis. Btw the unnamed blond guy in the game is Cloud you just won’t find out till later on.

Hahaha ya the music was funny in the Tifa fight. I thought it was my friends cell phone at first.

for the people that saying stuff about filling in black spots....you wouldnt have to WATCH that first to understand if you had paid any attention to the storyline in the game -P

and for whoever said the young girl (marlene) looked like cloud and tifas kid....you too...PLAY THE DAMN GAME silly people

[Pchan 5,162]

What'as more satisfying - the FF games or the movie series ? Sometimes, they both can't always be on the same boat.

If you play the game theres parts missing that Last Order fills in. Your basicly supposed to watch Last order, play the new cell phone game, play FF7, watch Advent Children. You don't have to do it in this order but its alot better then watching Advent Children then going back to the start and watching stuff that you should have seen before Advent Children.

Its basicly like how .Hack was set up with all there movies and video games in a way.

As for the Marlene looking like Cloud and Tifa's kid. It seemed like it was there kid. She didnt look like Cloud or Tifa but she certinly acted like they where her parents, but shes not so o well.

[Ladywriter 7,783]

the cg was amazing. Reno was animated the absolute best w/ Cloud a close 2nd. Reno's facial expressions were priceless yo

there was closure w/ Cloud and Tifa. Cloud decided he wanted to be forgiven and he wanted to go home ~ scene w/ Vincent.

[slippers 3,168]

by closure i meant "so cloud and tifa are hooking up or decided just to be friends?" they didnt venture too far. all they had was an arguement whether facing foes was worth dying for.

all of last order took place in-game in FF7. theres actually a huge amount of content that can be overlooked while playing it. did you know that aries and zack were engaged? they didn't mention that in last order.

[Ladywriter 7,783]

aye and ya can play the game thru w/o ever getting Vincent

Ya most is in the game but your right you skip through most of it since the game is to damn long lol. Its still better to watch Last Order before playing the game if you wanna understand what your playing for.

And my friend told me Aries and Zack were engaged but I didnt know it from playing the game or watching last order.

I cant wait till the other games come out.

[Eppy 3,446]

the game has been out for god knows how long...how could you not played it through once to get EVERYTHING

[gokuDX7 2,871]

I dont like long games. So I played it almost half way through them stoped . Then after a few months id play somemore and then stop...and so on. I know alot of people that played it and dont remeber everything about the story. they where simply playing it becuse it was another FF game.

[Eli 474]

Oh My Fucking Godd.

1: This movie rocked all existence.

2: Thank you Eppy, for those of you critiquing the movie for aspects of fillers and such, play the Goddamn game and shut the hell up until you do so! *growls* They could have made that movie 9 hours long and still not gotten everything. That was by far, the greatest, movie ever. EVER. *nods proudly*

Pay attention to the storyline when you play the game. Damn.

My Godd... My heart is still pounding from watching that. I will defend this game, movie, and everything "VII" til the day I die! *stands guard*

[Ladywriter 7,783]

I showed some of it to Lonnie yesterday and created a fan X'D We spent the next 1/2 hour discussing what makes asians so sexssy

Except... none of the characters in FF7 were asian. Except perhaps Yuffie.

But yeah, I haven't seen the movie yet. I wanna though. I should download it.

[Vincent 2,861]

everyone in the movie has a Japanese style hair cut.....except Barret....and Red XIII....and maybe Cid

[EVA-01 1,796]

I thought it was very well done, it makes me like FFVII somewhat more now. I loved the way everyone threw him up higher when he was fighting Bahamut Sin. >.<

But...Even thought I know this won't happen but, they now need to make a FFIX movie.

What ticks me off though is, that new people all of a sudden love FF games and act like their the shit and know everything.

[Ladywriter 7,783]

That was the scene Lonnie liked the best. We got into a big convo about expression in the arts after that but yeah.

Whos useing my materia!?
