[Shoeberto]

When is it coming out in [insert your country outside of Japan]?
It hasn't been announced yet.

Update - The North American release has been set at 01/10/06.

Is it coming out in theaters?
No theatrical release is planned outside of Japan.

I heard it's only coming out on UMD for PSP!
You got lied to. It's coming out on DVD and UMD.

Is it going to be in English or Japanese with subtitles?
It will be released with English voice acting.

Was the movie leaked?
Yes.

Can you give me a link to it/can I post a link to it?
No. Any requests or links to the movie will be removed.

Post any amendments if you think there are any more FAQs worth answering.

[Painless]

Just to be annoying they have the Australia date (or say some dvd shops).

[BackRoomKid]

Is Aeris going to be resurrected?

...........................

lol, j/k

maybe there should be links to official websites/trailors and such in this FAQ

(did someone add mirth and merriment to my post? i don't remember putting that on there....hmmmm....idk, i really don't remember)

[KoShiatar]

I volunteer to answer to any possible F.A.Q. regarding characters and such.

Hey mate i just preordered it on ezy dvd and it seems it comming out in December 7!

[Shoden]

If Australia gets it then that means the UK and US release dates arent so far off.

I'm tempted to ask a couple of stupid questions lol.

[Weimar Pluto Knight VII]

Yeah, this release date is annoying. Several sites say Sept 14, and the Japan date is today, according to the Japan site. Wikipedia says it was pushed back to sometime in November or October. The American official website has no useful info on release dates. You guys say it's not announced, yet. I'm so confused. Oh, and the adventchildren.net server is screwing up just when I need it to see what they're last news says, so that's frustrating.

OMG, is it out in 5 hours or 29 hours or what????????????

Square should make a clear announcement, like in the official trailer, and then stick to it instead of pushing it back and forth and thinking about thanksgiving sales and confusing the heck out of American fans. Did they change the official trailer? I could have sworn it said 18th, but I just checked it again and it says 14, but that's Japan.

What the hell... It used to say October 26th, but it's changed to Dec 7th... :confused: :mad:

[OminousShock]

I've heard it's released for US on Sept. 13...wait...*Checks calender* Isn't that today? So is it released in the US today? :eek:

[Craig]

I think you'll find that's Japan, not USA.

[OminousShock]

Yes and I've heard it was released in Japan the 14th which is the 13th for us because of the time zone diffrence.

[Vyk]

They bailed out on the dual-release thing. Japan gets it on time. But we now have to wait.

It did and i checked again and they changed the date, it must be something to do with the delay!

Erg, this is worse than FFIX. November 15 or 16 was with FFIX or something. But with AC, this is ridicolous; they're not even sure.

EDIT: oh, best buy only has the umd.

EDIT: Amazon is talking about the DVD.

[ffxfreak93]

HEY I KNOW THE EXACT DATE IT IS SEPTEMBER 29 2005 I AM SURE OF THIS :D TRUST ME

[Weimar Pluto Knight VII]

Amazon says November 29, not September. Why would Amazon put that? Are they guessing?

[The Filecreator]

i didnt wait for the dvd to come out in europe...
i got it from a classmate.
i wont spoil the movie by saying what will happen
but trust me, it worth seeing.

[ffxfreak93]

WELL THEY ARE WRONG :mad2: OR IF THAT IS WHEN THEY WILL PUT AC IN
THERE STORE??? :confused:

[Winter Nights]

Well, considering that it is 3 days from your release date and no official word has come, I highly doubt it will happen that soon.

[Cloud__Strife]

[!]Hey I just saw Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I'ts Japanese but with English subtitles!!!!!I have it on my hard drive saved if any of you guys want to see it, just tell me how to pass it to you!!!!![/!]*snip*

I think what you're suggesting is illegal. ~ Leeza

[*ETERNAL FANTASY*]

Another delay here down under!

I checked the same site and to my sadness its pushed back till February next near!

[here for a limited time]

well thtz a lie too!

[Weimar Pluto Knight VII]

If it doesn't come out before the end of the semester, I'm just gonna download it. Square is being ridiculous.

[here for a limited time]

same here dude, they had it coming

[Destai]

If it doesn't come out before the end of the semester, I'm just gonna download it. Square is being ridiculous.
I dont think Squares said anythng about February next year.

[*ETERNAL FANTASY*]

No No No thats for the aussie release im sure you guys will get it before us!

[Destai]

No No No thats for the aussie release im sure you guys will get it before us!
But Im not sure Square know when theyll release it in Australia either.

[shiningblade]

Ive heard rumor its going to be relesed sometime in November for the US. But Ive also heard as far as January or february.

[Kiero]

damn

[yukina]

Hey guys im just new anyway i already watched the movie and its so great!!!!

[Sincerity]

On amazon.com, the release date listed now is January 10, 2006. I got all worked up, thinking it was November, but now it's January, but it might still BE November, no one knows what's going on, blah blah blah. MAD irritating.

[Blitz Ace]

that is RETARDED!!! why is it being pushed back so far?? how long does it take em to add voice overs? although i cant complain, having already seen it, but i really wanna see it with the english voice acting

[Odaisé Gaelach]

They'll probably lip-sync the characters properly for English as well as adding the English voice overs.

[Weimar Pluto Knight VII]

That would be a good use of the delay.

[-N-]

I know what a bad use of the delay would be.

It's two words and rhymes with "flacid strip".

[Weimar Pluto Knight VII]

Hey Hsu, update the thing. They announced January 10.

http://eyesonff.com/

Let's pray for a theatrical release!

[Horton]

I have the movie on a dvd with english subtitles, THE MOVIE IS AWSOME!!!!!!! To view the spoiler about the movie highlight past the part saying spoiler thx.I found it somewhere but idont want to say it starts off with a helicopter and the turks, lets just say that sepheroith comes back near the end, and their is 3 new brothers of cloud. Weapon also comes back and they have a cool battle sceen too. You do see Zack and Aeris again, but aint tellin how. Well the movie is great and Rufus is still alive and holds a secret with him about Jenova. 10 out of 10 but this movie when it comes out in the u.s of a.

Let's not spoil the movie for everyone. ~ Leeza Ok Deal

[Weimar Pluto Knight VII]

*notices Hsu hasn't updated*

Huh? You mean it doesn't count? I cited eyesonff's news.

[Mookies]

PM him, or go to the submissions.

[Weimar Pluto Knight VII]

Oh, ok. I'll do that. I just assumed he hung out here.

[The Spirit of Aeris]

Actually Horton, Its Bahamut not Weapon. I thought that too but Weapon is not a summon. And for some reason, the guy (I forget his name) uses a blue coloured Materia to summon it.

[Randgris]

Is Aeris going to be resurrected?


:save: Nope... :crying: But You WILL see her a couple of times (I believe 3 or 4, the 4th being the best)... Watched it a couple of times... actually 10x, nice movie... It's in Japanese with English Subs... Damn... Kick-ass fight scenes... :fencing: :shoot: Was that Bahamut? :sweatdrop: Maybe I should let you watch it instead... :riiight:

Actually it's a green Materia (heck green is for magic, that should have been red)... His name is Kadaj... He uses a katana/kodachi with two blades... The other two are Yazoo (one with the GunBlade?) and Loz (one who fought with Tifa)...

[chaos9071]

This is what they should have done with the Final Fantasy Movie from the get go. Just make movies of the games...

[ThroneofDravaris]

That’s right, BOO ORIGINALITY!

[six underground]

it's a gorgeous flashy movie. :) 20 minutes of talk and the rest of is duking it out with everyone else:) near perfect direction, and even non-fans, though they won't love love it, will think it's cool. something tells me it's too big to be kept on DVD version (but too close-market storywise to have a theatrical release) :)

[Deathchant]

i wonder how far the movie will match the actual FF7 game...FF7 is a 3-disc huge storyline which cannot be viewed in an 1,5 hour movie....
I an a great FF7 fan, but I hope the movie doesn't dissappoint me. I live in the Netherlands (Europe) and I believe no official release is out yet...

[Starcrest]

it's not summing it up, it's continuing, and i'm totally buying it the day it comes out for the U.S., i'm totally excited, i've waited for this for ever

[Adam 77]

:( ok i am getting so annoyed now..... it was coming out in the us on 10/1/06 this month but now according to playusa.com it is TBA all of a sudden :mad2: there better be a gd reason why they are pushing back the release again.... hopefully being english voice acting ...... if any one knows when its coming out let me know thanks ;)

[Winter Nights]

Why is everyone still on about the Jan 10th address? It was long stated that the date was pushed to March, due to Square wanting a limited theatrical release. There was even a thread about it.

http://forums.eyesonff.com/showthread.php?t=74701

[Seto Fett]

So, what's the deal these days with the English AC release? According to the the FAQ, it should be out now, but that's just a projection of course. Has any news surfaced for its release or are we still being left in the dark about it?

EDIT: March huh. Well, that's not bad...

[LionHart]

So...looks like we're finally going to see Advent Children in the US on April 25. The countdown is back up on the Square-Enix AC website, so I'm assuming that this information is valid.

[Dark Paladin]

In the UK its coming out on the 24th April.

YAY!!! Can't wait!!!:D

[Tifa's Real Lover(really]

thtz the us release

[Weimar Pluto Knight VII]

I don't think so. Wikipedia claims the UK will get it that day; we get it the 25th. But that's wikipedia, so I wouldn't be 100% about that.

[nirojan]

hold up that's today!!!! is it really being released today??

[Weimar Pluto Knight VII]

No, it's the 24th? (EDIT: Oh,...but you don't live the UK) Anyways, I got an email from animenation a few days ago stating my order was shipped. I know it's extremely hard to believe, but, guess what the order was!

EDIT: Hey guys, guess what just came in the mail! And guess what I just watched!

[Roto13]

I think this FAQ should be updated.

[Cruise Control]

Make sure it states that Aeris is still dead.
