    I have heard today that the dvd has leaked online with english subtitles. probably a very bad thing as most people who are into FF are geeks and understand how and where to get it.

    The Jap onw with subtitles? September 14th I think it'll be available. Might be a bit after that before it starts appearing on ebay and other places.

    Thing is that people, me for example, would prefer subtitles to crappy dubbing any day.

    I reckon I'll just wait it out though.

    but i tihnk it was delayed here and the US so it wouldnt have crappy dubbing.

    I heard about it being leaked, but I think the subs were made by a fan, so the translation could be rubbish.

    It wasn't leaked per se. The DVD went on sale in Japan and it was released onto the net. All english subs are fan subs - there are no english sub on the japanese DVD, unfortunately. I've heard it's good. Looking forward to getting the DVD shame it's delayed so damn much. I don't care about dubbing. Just want the Japanese DVD with english subs. *sighs*

    Translations would be pretty good I'd imagine. Fans do this a lot - people translate Japanese anime etc regularly. These are the sorta people who'd be doing a translation.

    Think I may have to talk to the cousins in japan about this for research purposes.

    I'm hoping my cousins aren't evil and actually give it to me with subs.

    I got it today, only took like and hour and a half. Need to download a seperate subtitle file.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 141 ✭✭Hanginthere


    Possibly ,one of the greatest movies... ever.. visually stunning and a treat to watch, good subs too :p


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 53,901 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Is the story any good or is it just pretty. I hope they don't contradict the story of FFVII, which I'm worried that they will.

    BTW: You shouldn't be referring to your cousins in Japan by calling them bittorrent

    Yeh noticed that in one of the first trailers... just pops open holding about 12 swords, handy as hell... and he has a smaller dagger-esque one on him too

    Guy / Girls, if your interested in FF get this, especially if you love FF7...
    I got it in less then and hour and was a little aprehencious but it was all worth it.

    The English translation is very near perfect and I bet better then any dubs that will come out.

    PS. The sample's and trailers are nothing compared to the whole movie.
    One hour and forthy miuntes of the charactors we all love. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,121 ✭✭✭The Free Man


    man my cousins are taking ages..... i cant wait!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,257 ✭✭✭✭Rabies


    My 90yr old granny in Japan sent me the FF dvd but put the wrong movie in the box. Don't you just hate when that happens :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,688 ✭✭✭grimloch


    I wonder who will be playing the the English voices on a seemingly unrelated note.

    I may be imagining it but I heard Justin Timberlake is playing Cloud, I'll take my subtitles thank you very much.

    Eminem is on IMDB as playing Mr Coates.
    Anyone remember Mr Coates? What a minor character, how the flip did he make it into the film? My guess is he's now king of coral or some such.

    So anyway i flew over to japan earlier and watched this with my distant family.

    AMAZING. ppure genius
    I laughed my ass off after the first tifa fight when the guys phone rang

    amazing animation too.


    the subs were in the file i got already. very easy to figure out how to work em tbh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,945 ✭✭✭Anima


    Good movie. Bit confusing in places. Can't wait for the english version to come out.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,554 ✭✭✭herobear

    Just hope that the english version is as good in terms of voice acting.

    Just watched first half of it on my lunch break. Looks excellent so far. Took nearly two days to get it "sent from japan". I had to get seperate subtitle file. Then from VideoLAN media player, went File->Open and selected the movie file to open. Beside that there is a "Subtitles" check box. Select this, then browse to wherever you saved your subtitles file. VideoLAN player is free if u don't have it.
    Subtitles seem spot on too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,920 ✭✭✭evad_lhorg


    Id well do Tifa tbh ! :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,300 ✭✭✭airetam_storm


    Oh i havent seen the film so i dont wanna read the threads spoilers :(

    ...so...tempting :(

    Glad to hear its great tho, i was quite worried they might make a meal of the story written in VII. Eminem as Mr. Coates is alright as he's only a v.minor character, but so help me God if Justin Timberlake dubs Cloud :mad:

    In my humble opinion, Advent Children was utter crap. Great visuals, nothing about the story I didn't see coming.

    It's not bad, nothing wonderful but a good enough view.

    I suppose the rest of this post should be in a spoiler tag.
    I didn't like the shockingly little amount of time some of the characters had on screen Cid, Yuffie and Red for example barely have a paragraph between them. Fair enough it was only an hour and a half but it didn't feel like they were really needed there.

    Extra screen time would really really have been a plus.

    As mentioned before, predictable bits like the last fight with Sephiroth. Not too much of a story to string the fight scenes together but then again I'm sure the constraints of time kicked in there.

    Visuals were bitchin' and the fights were very nice indeed.The last bit with the sword thingy is very snazzy and the Bahamut fight is very impresive indeed.

    For an hour and a half it was good, like I said I'd have liked another 45 minutes slapped on but I liked what they did with they little time they had.

    Anyway I'm sort of looking forward to another look at the yoke.
