I noticed while watching the movie the main characters have a red ribbon tied around their arm. Did they mention anything relating to that in the movie? does anyone know what it was for? did this topic come up already? or what do you think it means.

I think it was to pay respect to Aeris after she died. People do thing like that in memoriam for the people they love who have passed, I believe. Wikipedia has a nice list of what different colored ribbons represent: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_awareness_ribbons
Yeah, Medi got that spot on. That links quite useful!
I think the Ribbons symbolize the party members' mutual friendship since they're all wearing one (you'll see a lot of Ribbons when all the characters lift Cloud to Bahamut). When Cloud goes to fight Kadaj near the end, he removes the sleeve and you'll see his Ribbon, so in a way that shows how he longer wants to be alone, but with his friends. The Ribbon is also there for Aeris' memory, as far as I know. Finally, Ribbon was the ultimate protective accessory in FFVII, protecting you from nearly all the status ailments.
so many thoughts! I sort of thought it was some sort of respect towards aerith or the planet (but if it wasn't I didn't want to sound stupid).
According to the creators, it's in remembrance of Aerith, and the gang + Marlene all have one.
This answer is better than any other on this subject matter.Quote:

^^haha, ribbon hogger. you know i was wondering if the ribbon in marline's hair is spost to be the same as the others, or if its just the way her hair is done.
one thing that confuses me is that all of them have the ribbon on their left arm except for vincent proabbly because of the claw but i didn't see one on his right am i just missing something or is he not wearing one?
maybe it's closer to his shoulder so u can't see it (the whole cape thing and what-not).Quote:

I don't know why anyone would want to remember her. :Oo: I thought she was an annoying pain in the ass, and my sister and I couldn't wait until Sephiroth stuck his sword through her!!! :mwahaha: :thumb:Quote:

AND IT CAN BE A RIBBON THAT PROTECTS YOU FROM POISON AND STUFF!
thankz much ^_^
They could be promoting AIDS awareness. :P
I thought this died a long time ago i guess i wuz wrong.
maybe its geostigma awareness but i doubt it.
Vincent's ribbon is probably on his right arm due to his claw.Quote:

Isnt it because they are all part of AVALANCHE?thats what myself and me cuz have been thinking, itsa pretty logical, considering Vincent actually wears a pink ribbon.
Marlene was never actually part of AVALANCHE.
Besides, the creator's have stated their fiat that the ribbons are in memory of Aerith.
I didnt realise Marlene wore won?
of coarse they would want to remember her aeris was special to all of them especialy cloud, she saved the world twice (ff7,ac)she cured clouds stigma she was the most beautiful any powerful character in the game and she isnt anoying even when she was alive she didnt have alot of monologue she was the nicest character in the game and the creators probobly give you a fat lip for for saying stuff like that about their most beloved charaterQuote:

Cloud Strife - upper left arm
Tifa Lockheart - upper left arm
Marlene Wallace - wears a large pink ribbon in her hair, which is braided into a ponytail
Barret Wallace - lower left arm
Nanaki - lower left foreleg, above his bangle
Yuffie Kisaragi - upper left arm and on her shuriken. As far as we know, she is the only other character who sports two pink ribbons.
Cait Sith - upper left arm. It is unknown if Reeve also wears a ribbon.
Vincent Valentine - lower right arm
Cid Highwind - upper left arm
Aeris Gainsborough - one large large pink one holding her hair up and another smaller pink one tieing her braid.
You forgot the most obvious one: Aeris also has a pink ribbon in her hair.
