Stop screwing around with sequals and new movie ideas and just make a movie on what has made them the most money so far. Get the same friggin people who made Lord of the Rings to make a trilogy based on the exact storyline of FF7 (or FF4). They can animate it or use real people, however, they will need to tone some things down if its animated. I was a little turned off by the last fight scene in Advent Children when it seemed everyone was just flying and throwing Cloud around in the air. In a game it's fine but in a cinematic setting you have to adhere to the rules of gravity at least a little bit...it's not like it'll kill the storyline and it'll attract more people if some realism is added.

I have long wanted to see a movie version of FF4 and FF7. I rented Advent Children with high hopes but was kinda let down...I shoulda known after being sorely disappointed with TSW.

maybe taht's why it's Final Fantasy it's not real, and doesn't follow laws of gravity... but i do agree with you on the fact for newer movies. i don't like teh fact taht they're making all these sequals on ff7. it gets rather old

i agree with you 100%

Making spin offs for 7 does get old, but it doesnt stop FF7 fanboys and girls going crazy over it. They know that anything with a FF labelled slapped on it will sell, and seeing as though 7 is the most popular it makes the most profit.

It's sad really, i thought square wouldnt stoop so low

Its money isnt it? Even though you may be one of the top selling games companys in the world (I dunno that for a fact though) money still makes your world go round. It seems to me as if SE are giving up. Personally I thought it all started when they transformed into Square Enix. But thats just me.

They merged, not transformed :p. Square and Enix still have their development teams separated, so it's not really affecting their games. Stuff that people generally blame Enix for was already in development before they merged anyway, like FFX-2 and FFXI, probably the AC movie too, though I don't know that for a fact.

Thanks for clearing that up for me Mirage

Thats what Ive been doing. I remember my boyfriend having a heated debate with a guy from a v game shop. He showed the guy a copy of FFX and FFX2, pointing at the names when the guy was saying they are both great and the same. My boyfriend repiled, no theres the different and pointed at the SS and SE's logos. So I had thought Enix had ruined Squaresoft.
