    Default FFVII AC soundtrack (please avoid spoilers)

    To those of you who have seen the movie (either by downloading or by buying it from Japan tonight), how is the soundtrack? It's composed by Nobuo Uematsu, but I heard the music will be quite rockish whereas FFVII's soundtrack was epic, using lots of strings, brass and other orchestra-style synth instruments. Does the music fit into the movie? Do they reuse any of FFVII's songs? I've heard the Black Mages version of One-Winged Angel in the trailers, but that's it. How about the opening song (Calling?) or that Latin choir music used in FFVII AC's Japanese homepage? What's the music style like, and is it orchestral or synthesized? I'd like to get that soundtrack, but first I'd like to know if it will be worth getting. If anyone knows when or where you can import the soundtrack, it would be helpful if someone posted some information about it here.

    "One-Winged Angel" is far and away the best final boss song ever

    It uses a lot of tracks from the game. Some of the music is taken directly from the piano collections and black mage albums, actually.

    The music is sort of a combination between the epic style of FFVII and a more rock oriented style.

    "Calling" is played at the very very end, and the choir music you refer to is used throughout

    As for how well it fits in wih the movie; Yes, it does fit, but it was kind of distracting every time a familiar song played that I knew all the music to

    I can't wait for the soundtrack to come out... I loved the way that the new (SPOILER)one winged angel sounds like. Final Fantasy 7 and Rock go very good together.

    the songs on their own are decent. i especially like the remixes of one winged angel and jenova. however they oftentimes totally do not fit into the movie at all. very poorly done.
