I'm surprised no one made a thread about this yet:

http://www.square-enix.co.jp/dvd/ff7ac/

It doesn't look like it contains much new footage (if I remember the past trailers correctly), but there is some new stuff. I don't remember seeing Red XIII before, and he's in this trailer. Of course, my memory could just be foggy. Regardless, it's definitely worth checking out if you're interested in Advent Children.

 

[duckroll]

I saw this a few days back. Looks like they've finally run out of footage to show in the trailers so now they're repeating. :lol

Although the one thing that makes this trailer worthwhile is that

Spoiler

you can see Sephiroth in non-flashback form for like 1 second at the end.

 

[AndoCalrissian]

Good God, finish the movie already!

Unless of course this is all a facade and AC is actually a PS3 launch title...

 

[BatiGOOOOOOL]

Sorry for asking a question that' I'm sure has been asked many times before, but I haven't follow the news regarding this movie.

Is Advent Children being released on DVD(or only UMD)? If yes, when?

 

[Jonnyram]

DVD (and supposedly UMD, though it's dropped off the release radar).
Sometime this year. Was supposed to be summer last year, though... like FFXII.

 

[LakeEarth]

I don't remember seeing Weapons before this, sweet.

 

[Greenpanda]

I'm not watching this unless Cait Sith is in it

 

[Docpan]

So, um, when the fuck is this thing coming out?

 

[Prince of Space]

Does anyone else have more than just a passing interest in this thing? Seriously, if not for One Winged Angel playing in the background, I wouldn't really care less for it.

 

[EGM92]

I just creamed my pants.... I WANT TO WATCH THIS NOW!!

Anywhere I can download the trailers instead of watching them on a small website window?

 

[Zeenbor]

I am the biggest FF7 whore. I want this so bad. SO BAD.

 

[Ironclad]

I am the biggest FF7 whore. I want this so bad. SO BAD.

So I guess you're happy that Squenix is whoring FF7? I know i'm not.

 

[Leguna]

I'm in the same boat, I'm looking forward to this film more than any other. I haven't anticipated a film like this since Matrix Reloaded, but when in 2005 is coming out??? I'm wondering why SquareEnix isn't making much noise about the film here in the US. I hope it does really damn well so that it introduces a new audience to CG films other than kids.

 

[Karg]

The last part was worth it.....

 

[Aika'svyse]

Swoon

 

[CloudNL]

FF VII: Advent Children trailer #1 + #2 + #3 + #4 + stills = full movie

 

[Guns N' Poops]

They handle it like a video game, release screenshots and videos galore :lol
On that way we'll see the entire movie before it's finished.

 

[Zaptruder]

The movie that spirits within should've been.

Bastards! I bought the DVD! It has NOTHING TO DO WITH FF!

 

[LakeEarth]

The movie that spirits within should've been.

Bastards! I bought the DVD! It has NOTHING TO DO WITH FF!

I know that if they just made a CG version of FFVII instead of Spirits Within, the movie would've been sucessful. I just know it.

 

[Prince of Space]

I almost feel stupid for asking, but that is sarcasm, right?

 

[LakeEarth]

I almost feel stupid for asking, but that is sarcasm, right?

What? Me? Well maybe it would've still bombed. I'm not a psychic. But if they based it on FFVII (though leaving out any stupid/confusing parts/gave a real ending), it would've been much better. I mean, the movie was all CG, but all the action sequences were standard gun fights. The beauty of full CG is that you can make them do anything. Swordfights, magic, shit you see in the Advent Children trailers. That would've been way better.

 

[neptunes]

Trailer looked awesome.

 

[mrkapawutzis]

Where's the drool smiley when you need it?

 

[jiggle]

Woah, I missed the very very last part the first time I saw it.

Can't wait to see more.


The trailer's resolution is slightly taller than PSP's native resolution. But I can totally imagine watching this on one, and liking it.

I don't mind the constant delay, as long as they're adding more length to it

I just hope they're not doing so to shorten the gap between this and Core Crisis...unless they're gonna throw in a trailer or demo of the game

 

[whytemyke]

man, tifa's hot.

haha, watch them screw this up and cast awful people for the english voices. Chris Rock as Barret, David Schwimmer as Cloud.

 

[Drakken]

Update: The trailer has now been subtitled and is available for download here. So, now you can actually understand what's going on.

 

[Defensor]

 

[Tarazet]

And now I will have four DVDs. Yay.

 

[EGM92]

Does anyone remember how long the movie is supposed to be? The movie is looking freakin AWSOME.

Hrm.. I just get green garbage and sound -- how are you guys viewing this? I don't think I'm missing any codecs.

 

[Chrono]

Mine crashes 2 minutes in. =\

 

[bitwise]

mine crashes too after a little bit.

 

[Drakken]

?

I downloaded it, and it works fine for me. That's odd.

 

[EGM92]

If you're getting green screens with audio, or it plays but it has some sort of "run-off" you need codecs or a newer version of the codecs which is you need to update your current Divx Decoder Filter

 

[Jotaro]

Do you think that the character that was taken out of life that you all moan about will make an appearance in this?

 

[EGM92]

Do you think that the character that was taken out of life that you all moan about will make an appearance in this?

It's pretty obvious! If anyone has a close eye for detail they can easily tell that he's in the movie. Especially from that last trailer. If you're talking abotu whom I think you're talking about

Spoiler

Sephiroth

 

[Jotaro]

The character I'm referring to definitely did not died in the end of the game.

 

[Takuan]

Not bad. I still wish they made a direct sequel for consoles, though.

 

[3phemeral]

Hrm.. I downloaded some new divx codecs but nothing happened -- same error. Anyone got an idea where I could find the appropriate file?

 

[Ragnarok]

Not bad. I still wish they made a direct sequel for consoles, though.

Fuck that. Just give me a remake with next-gen graphics and I'll be the happiest person in the world.

All this sequel talk with Vincent Valentine is just pissing me off. Vincent?! You're going to revolve the game around Vincent? You might as well piss on my face, Square.

 

[Dujour]

It's pretty funny seeing as how there are some people that played the game without unlocking Vincent. I just wish they'd give Sakaguchi a second chance.

 

[Jonnyram]

Keep on top of the interviews and you'll know that Dirge of Cerberus and Advent Children happen in the same timeframe, but in different parts of the FF world. I think it'll be interesting if there is some kind of final sequel that brings them altogether and rounds everything off (again).

So we have so far:

Before Crisis: Final Fantasy 7 (Mobile) - Takes place 6 years before FF7
Final Fantasy 7 (PSone)
Final Fantasy 7: Advent Children (UMD/DVD) - 2 years after FF7
Final Fantasy 7: Dirge of Cerberus (PS2) - 2 years after FF7

Has Crisis Core's spot in the story been revealed officially. I know there were some reports of it taking place directly before FF7, I don't know if that was confirmed though.
