I am not, but even if I was, I thought that his whole entrance into the movie as a character was weak as shit. And his exit from the movie was laughable. How much more money do they plan to milk with the FF7 Sephiroth/Cloud crap.

as much as they can
and yeah, the ending of that final fight kinda suggested a (most likely corny) sequel
(I'd watch that anyway)

I totally didn't get how come Cloud just didn't use that attack thingy in the beginning, but then again that happens a lot in movies in general. It was okay, I just thought that the whole cure to goestigma thing was random...unless I missed something.

Come on, he was building his limit break up. You just cant go crazy, you have to be hit a bunch of times. Did you play 7? (JK)

You have to get smacked around for a while to do cool limit breaks like that.

Ah, don't be a hater. :P

Although, if it had been up to me, I'd have cut some of the other shit and made the fight with Sephiroth longer and more impressive.

I thought the fight with Sephiroth was the highlight of the movie and i wish it was longer.

Also i just ordered FFVII, i have alwasy liked the little i played of FF games except i hated FFX except Auron.

I bought FFVII to see if a FF game and i can be the right mix.

If i like FFVII,i plan to buy FFVIII too i liked it more FVII when i played it.

Dont think that i bought FFVII cause of this movie that i didnt understand much of,i have always wanted to play it more than i did the first time i saw it.

Don´t buy FFVIII.
Compared to FFVII it´s crap.
And yes it was a little disappointing that Sepiroth didnt have a bigger roll, I was kinda a little disturbed also about the fact that Cloud was the only one that could even hurt the Bahamut. Everyone else´s attempts just ran off him like water...

FFVIII was one of the best games I have ever played. I enjoyed every bit of it.
FFVII doesn't run unfortunately, even though I tried to make it work on three different comps...this is just how lucky I am

I meant the game, not the movie...I've seen that and drooled...

about FFVIII: avoid the spoilers and it will be great fun
I don't know how much I would enjoy a second play now that I know the story...but I'm sure to try once... :)

Nah never played it, will see if I can get my filthy paws on it now.

Took like forever but it was many fun hours spent there.
Well just to say something on topic again here, I just saw the 25 min episode and have to say it entertained me :D

Wow i just saw AC.... im sorry but that movie completely sucked. Story was meh. The movie was just one big CG that was visually appealing. Reno and Rude saved the movie a lot for me. When we saw the first fight flying around in the air was cool, but 45 minutes of it and that shit got boring and lame.



IMHO FF7 is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo overrated.

is it me, or did anyone else think that tifa looked alot like rinoa??

Well I´ve also had some complaints about the movie myself Halfn. It´s eye candy the most off it.
But still the story is better (somehow) then in the first movie Square did

Edit: Ohh and by the way, "last order". That´s taken straight from the game (Well they twisted one or two things around, but a few parts are from it).

I know it is, and did you see what Sephiroth said at the end? Hello Adeven Children 2! they will juice it until people get tired of it, and i think that will be sometime so get use to all the 7 love.

EDIT maybe Tifa looked like Rinoa to appeal to the 8 fans out there
