    There are a lot of real world references in Final Fantasy VII. What's your favourite?

    As an extra topic of discussion, do you think this is the real Mona Lisa?

    Oh wow, never come across that one before. It would have to be fake; FF7 isn't even set on Earth.

    Maybe this was the original, and Da Vinci copied it. Maybe OUR Mona Lisa is the fake.

    I think it is clearly real. If you look closely, you can see that it has that one identifiable pixel that marks it as authentic Da Vinci. It's there. Trust me.

    But no it was clearly stolen by the Shinra. They were going to send it into space, but, uh, yeah...

    If I've witnessed that scene, I was likely so confused as to the barking mad hell Tifa was talking about that I ended up dismissing it from memory. From that angle, that portrait looks more like Tower Piza.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    Best real world reference in FFVII? Either the My Bloody Valentine - Loveless poster, or the Shinra cannon being called the Sister Ray.

    No doubt about it. It's real.

    All this time, I thought it was meant to be a painting of the rocket. What the hell is wrong with me?!

    Gotto be the part where Cloud found Tifa's underwear. I wasn't expecting anyone from the FF VII world to be wearing underwear.

    Not that time! With Cid, originally! It was going to be the first space painting!
