One thing is for sure, I´m going to see this movie, the trailer at http://www.finalfantasy.com is awsome!

I know.. that latest trailer blows my mind. Even if the movie turns out to have terrible plot, voice acting, and characters, I\'ll be buying it on DVD for the visuals and sound.... bwahahahah.....
BTW I think that (having read the new plot synopsis on FinalFantasy.com (http://www.finalfantasy.com) that they put up in the big update) this movie will have an amazing plot, characters, and voices - to go along with it\'s superb graphics and sound.

I hope it will be a good movie. Because if it won\'t the
critics will, illogically, say videogames are nothing good
when related to the silverscreen.

this is what i really dont understand... why would a videogame be made into a movie? ok, mabye a movie can be made into a videogame, but the other way around???i dont think itll do well.. yes, the trailer looks great... alot of psx owners will go and see it.. but other than that... ah whatever.

Actually, the graphics alone tend to impress most people, however, people who hate fantasy/sci-fi genres are probably gonna pass on it. The reason this time they can make a movie from a video game, is that this video game has a truly amazing universe, and the storylines have been pretty damn sweet.... Add in the fact that each new chapter involves new characters and situations, means a movie can be made easily.

I saw the new trailer today in a real movie theater, and it was damn impressive. The editing was a little too fast to allow you take everything in, but I guess they figure that\'s the way they have to make trailers to keep people excited. You know, the want to use the MTV video editing style to remind people that this is also an action film.
I got to thinking... These computer generated characters look so real, will they appear in other films? I mean, could the cg character produce enough interest and empathy from the audience that the producer or director would reuse the character (as an "actor") in another film? Not just a Final Fantasy sequel, but something else entirely? That would really be fascinating. I think it will be quite a while before a CG actor can hope to generate the appeal that an outstanding well-known human actor could... BUT... it could shorten the careers of many lousy actors in hollywood who are cast only because of their looks. ahem... Catherine Zeta Jones...? She should be computer generated, because she certainly doesn\'t know how to act.
