| Quote: | FFVII: Advent Children Comes Home For the Holidays
U.S. release delayed until November.
by Shane Bettenhausen, 08/24/2005
It's that time of the month again: Today, Electronic Gaming Monthly subscribers will begin finding the latest issue (October, #196) stuffed into their mail slots. Along with the usual informative previews, controversial reviews, and ads for cell phone wallpaper, the issue boasts a massive cover story of the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII project, featuring in-depth information on the multiple FFVII spin-offs headed your way.
You'll have to pick up the issue for the full scoop, but here's a bit of sobering news: Contrary to previous reports, the full-length CG motion picture FFVII: Advent Children will not be launching stateside simultaneously with its Japanese counterpart on September 13th. Instead, Sony Pictures plans a U.S. release on both UMD and 2-disc "Special Edition" DVD this "holiday season." What does that mean, exactly? Probably a mid-to-late November release, as the publisher wants to get those lucrative day-after-Thanksgiving "Black Friday" sales.
No official theatrical release is planned, although Square Enix has hinted at the possibility of one-off promotional events in major markets. We'll keep you posted.
Oh, and the 2-disc DVD will feature some trailers, bonus features, and behind-the-scenes stuff, but not that cool 'Last Order' anime short that's included in the ridiculously expensive $300 Japanese limited edition. Sucks to be us! |
f*****g whores!!!

what? I can't blame Square for anything.
And on a completely unrelated note; when the f**k did people start using "one-off" to describe unique events? I've heard "on-off" but "one-off" never made a bit of f*****g sense.

THANK GOD, I usually only go to the movies once a year.. after Thanksgiving. I would have missed this movie otherwise.
Im sure there are other Die-hard FF7 fans who wouldn't have been able to make time anywhere in September to see it in theatres.

This will be fansubbed on the internet faster than Square can count their missed money.

Usually when America brings over a huge-hit anime from Japan like this and dubs it with American VA's they do a really good job (like on Princess Mononoke for example). So im sure buying the DVD will still be worth it.

The DVD release is the same day in Japan and America isn't it? The only theatre release last I heard, was about 4 days before release until a week or so after in one theatre, and to even get into that, you had to already be a member of the Shinra website.

No the release is not on the same day anymore. That is the whole point of the thread. America is getting the DVD a couple of months after Japan is.

Kadaj and Yazoo annoy me. They're not hot enough to be noteworthy. Tifa, Rude, Loz, Cid, those are who I will be watching the movie for. And of course my boy Cloud.
Edit : Actually I don't think Kadaj is very androgynous at all. I think Yazoo is, more than is good for him.
-Nah-

Oh come now.. when was the last time you had to have a movie actually come out before you knew everything about it? Granted the names may still change but for the longest time there have been oodles of spoiler sites out there with a ton of information about the movie. Regardless how accurate it will be in the end, it's at least enough for now.
-Nah-

Here's one for starters.. it's official too. As a rule they don't give much away but at least here you can see that Square-Enix uses the same names.
Edit : durrrr....

No he's fighting Rude. There's apparantely a scene where Reno and Rude take on Yazoo and Loz, respectively. I can't imagine they end up winning, seen as how Loz kicks Tifa's ass, and that's no easy feat given the complete ass pounding she first gives him.
-Nah-
