Final Fantasy VII LIVE ACTION film?

If FFVII were made into a LIVE ACTION film, would you like it? If so, what would your picks for the cast be?

No, not a good idea.

This has been a perennial topic on this forum.

I agree that it wouldn't be a good idea, mainly due to that stylized video games don't translate well into live action movies (Super Mario Brothers and Street Fighter come to mind). Also there's an utter lack of need, since AC was made and computer animation seems to suit the setting and story.

That being said it's a crying shame they didn't tap Denis Leary for the English dub of Cid in AC. He's done voice-over work before so I'm suprised nobody thought of it.

its not actually happening, its hypothetical.

after watching Sweeny Todd i think Johnny Depp could pull of Vincent.
And Jason Isacc's would be a good Sephiroth.

Re-read the original post. And anyway, it's not even a good idea for hypothetical discussion.

That's probably because we have more advanced technology than they did back then. Perhaps they can now better emulate the appearances of the fictional characters.

And they did make a Transformers movie, and it sold well. What's the difference?
