This is what you've been doing in your room for 50 hours at a time??? You're so gay!' Let's face it there aren't alot of people out there that play FF...Yeah millions probably do but think of the billions that don't. That's why hollywood and critics bashed the movie...they just don't understand what all the fuss is about. For some of us, we grew up with these characters and some of us probably even instilled some of their values in ourselves (bravery, honesty, dressing up like a girl to save someone...well maybe not that one) The point is that these CG characters on the screen actually mean something to us, to everyone else its just crap.
You're right, I can't find any Final Fantasy fans either. There's only like, 2 of them.

I wonder why people thought Kadaj summoning a huge dragon from the sky was perfectly acceptable but Cloud jumping up and hitting it was completely unrealistic O_O

Anywho.. Yes this is a continuation of the story, anybody watching is expected to already know why the characters are they way they are... It's a sequel, not a new franchise.

I like the LotR reference, which nobody had a problem with. Frodo was the same wuss-ass at the end of all three just like at the beginning, no character development at all, Cloud had freakin more then him, so what's the problem >_>!
If you don't like it though, that's cool too, no biggie. It is what it is now... Don't watch it if it doesn't float your boat.
