    Default Would you pay to visit SqueeLand?

    Square Enix Land amusement park, home to such exciting rides as Strife Bike, ChocoMotion, Elevator Arsenal, and entertaining characters like Cloud, Lightning, Squall, Cecil, Vincent, and Auron.

    Get your hands on timeless Square Enix memorabilia such as Cloud's Buster Sword, Squall's Gunblade, Jecht's Chain, and see a to-scale recreation of Sin and Meteor. Have your kids dress as Vivi, Eiko, Cactuars, Moogles, Tonberries, and Pupus. Collect all 12 sixteenth-scale SOLDIERs. Have a date Aerith and share a laugh with Kefka.

    Okay, so I'm not a good salesman and my knowledge of Square Enix is limited in scope. I only know of their properties subconsciously. It doesn't help that I'm currently playing FF7R. Still. The thought occurred to me that Final Fantasy has nearly become as important to our culture as Disney or Marvel or Star Wars or KISS. It'd be great to see it get the veneration it deserves at something other than E3 or some annual convention.
    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.

    I mean they do have themed cafes in Japan...

    Not sure if I would care to go to an FF themed park like Disney Land. Probably cause I know it would most likely pay only lip service to the entries I'm not the biggest fan of.

    No. I probably won't purchase the inevitable stream of poor quality sequels and remakes SE produces to recoup costs either.
