FFII = Star Wars
Has anyone else noticed this? Think about it, you are a Rebel group led by a Princess trying to defeat the Emperor (which is of course the most obvious simalarity) who has a Dark Knight (much like Darth Vader) who(SPOILER)just happens to be related one of the main characters, Maria. Also, (SPOILER)his Dark Knight kills him, much like Darth Vader. I was just thinking about the new movie when I realized this. Has anyone else noticed it?
Huh... Never thought of it that way. Interesting.
Yup, it's even more Star Warsey than FFVI. The destruction of worlds/towns, a mystical force considered dead, the last jedi/dragon knight, and small furry critters that help out.
Lionheart doesn't kill the Emperor; Frioniel and company do. Lionheart's only in on it when they re-kill him in Hell, and even then it's a team effort.
Which is why it's similar but not an exact match. All the same Lionheart has a hand in defeating the Emperor. The ONLY way that it particularly fails is that (SPOILER)Lionheart doesn't particularly seem to be swayed back toward the light.
Note that both he and Cain in FFIV go off on their own at the end of their respective games. They should get together.
You've given me this horrible urge to photoshop the two of them together in a compromising position. Thanks a lot.
Where's the camp droids? Where's the starships? How come Leon doesn't have breathing difficulties? How come you're not taught at some point by a small green lizard with bad grammar? Star Wars nothing doing!
EDIT: Scratch that, I just found this.

There is no signature here. Move along.
Final Fantasy creators are notorious Star Wars fans. Do the names Biggs and Wedge tell you nothing? So it just might be.
I think the first thread I ever made here was about how FFVIII = Star Wars. This one probably makes more sense.
Proud to be the Unofficial Secret Illegal Enforcer of Eyes on Final Fantasy!

Ah, yes, the one everyone wanted to die.
I didn't want Jar Jar to die, what a horrible and grotesque thing to utter so freely.Originally Posted by DarkLadyNyara
I'm just going to write every connection I can think of.
Firion: Luke or Anakin Skywalker (he is the hero, after all)
Maria: .... Padme? I don't know!
Guy: Chewbacca (tough, and can talk to beavers, like Chewy who speaks a completely different language)
Princess Hilda: Pricess Leia, of course.
Minwu: Yoda, for his all-knowingness.
Josef: Someone else think of that.
Gordon: The earlier mentioned Jar Jar.
Cid: Hon Solo (because he gives you his airship, and sort of reminds me of Hon in other ways)
Leila: Hmm... Fighter Padme. I can't think of anything else.
Ricard: Obi Wan Konobi (for a number of reasons)
Leon: Darth Vader.
Thats all I can think of at the moment.
Jar Jar was cool. (and Gordons okay if you train him)
