An idea for an awesome FF movie

[Vivisteiner]

The movie would bring back the main villains and characters from previous Final Fantasys and the plot would centre around a powerful crystal. Each character would have his own motives for wanting the crystal, and certain alliances would be made. It would obviously involve a lot of epic battles and it could have an interesting storyline if expanded further. And FF fans would love it.

1) I love your sig, thats awesome

2) Doubt it would ever happen, considering to get any ounce of character involvement (from all the games mind you) and any hint of a plot involving all the bad guys, in a single movie, would be impossible.
More likely would be another sequel to a game, or the actual game story itself, made into cinema.

Think back to AC, which only involved the characters of ONE game. How much time did the non-main characters get in the movie? Tifa got 1 solo fight scene (which only lasted about a minute), you had the Bahamut fight which involved all the characters from FFVII for what, 3 minutes? before Cloud climhazzard'd him. So 4 minutes out of the entire movie that gave the spotlight to the secondary characters (Tifa got a bit more non-combat scenes due to her closeness to Cloud). Imagine now trying to cram not just 1 games characters into the story, but 5-6 games worth, AND all the bad guys?

1) Heheee, thanx. You should get the game when it comes out.


2) Yeah, thats true. Although FFVII:AC did waste so much time focussing on only Cloud. If they made it longer I think it'd still be possible, with a relatively simple plotline. But then again, designing each character would be expensive. Maybe if they only used a few games?

It would probably be better as a game though, as you said.
