Advent children leaked with English subs apparently

kdoc

Just watched Advent Children last night with the fan subs, holy **** its awsome, the perfect game movie, the fights are insane and the moves they pull off (motor bike chases for anyone who's seen it) All iv too say now is WOW, am off to watch it again. later

i watched it 2 and a half times last night...i'm wrecked

Pretty much all of the music in the film was a revamp of the original FFVII game music, however the only one track that I can't find is the tune that kicks up as Reno & Rude fight the gang members. Despite the FFVIII game battle music already being revamped for the Tifa Church fight, the Reno & Rude fight music sounds as if it's the same tune, yet given a completely different remix. I could be wrong, of course, but to me it sounds very similar to the game battle theme also.

If anyone happens to know the name of the tune, please throw it my way. It's a cool track.

ya, the characters were way overpowered....but then again, give me 2 years to lvl up my ffvii chars, and they'd be able to do it too

My favourite track, utterly fantastic. Is it an AC original or a originally from the game?

ok i dont think this is against the rules so im gonna ask. if it is just delete it.

I have the bien.xvid file of the movie which i thikn most people have. i am lookin to burn it to dvd.

i usually use mediostream(neodvd) to burn avi to dvd. but i was wonderin if someone could tell me how to do so with the subtitles to0?

I only got around to watching it now.
My overall verdict: It was a cool film; not a good film. It looked great, but the story was really really superfluous.
I think the film could've stood to have been 30 mins to an hour longer (without additional fight scenes).

I got AC....ummm from a friend? Anyways, I haven't watched it yet and it hurts! Because I want to put subs on it, how do I do that?

I regard FFVII as my favourite game ever and I was utterly disappointed with this film. The plot was nonsensical, the majority of characters appeared to please fans and the ending was trite and disappointing. I don't know what has happened to Square since they released FFVII, it seems they peaked with that game and then started to pump out filth.

The ending of FFVII (the game) was perfect and this film was tacked on as a cynical marketing ploy, simple as. Everything was resolved at the end of the game!, what purpose did the films story serve?, why did

Sephiroth

get resurrected?,

his soul ceased to EXIST at the end of FFVII as the only place he remained was in Cloud's mind and Cloud clearly destroys him at the end in the one on one confrontation.

Fallacy

Thank you for spoiling it, sure you censored his name but you could have done the whole sentence. And did you have English subs? If so how did you get them in?

Too aerodynamic and over the top for my liking... Fair enough it was based on a game that contained amazing and outright impossible fantasy special moves and characters, but the majority of the film just seemed to focus on dancing and prancing. I found the main plot line painfully uninteresting, and spent most of the time wondering when the 'real' characters would come into it, and was dissapointed at them merely obtaining a cameo role, except for Tifa. As for the fights, the only one I enjoyed was that between Reno & Rude against the 'other' two, where you could clearly see what was going on. All the other ones involved nothing more than flying around with sparks in the air, or jetting around like a matrix remake, which was sickening.

Also, they seemed to focus more on 'sub' characters besides the main ones, sub characters being Reno, Rude, Rufus, Marlene, Denzel etc... Anyone else just appeared, spoke a line or two, then started dancing around.

I'm a fan of FFVII, but I feel that no matter what they try, they will 'never' obtain anything remotely as epic as the game, and the appearance of Sephiroth was, despite being 'mildly' entertaining, too short. I mean, for the number one most popular game bad guy to appear for about seven minutes of fighting in a film remake of the after events of the game is, simply put, a disasterous choice. If he was to come back in any shape or form at all, he should have come back in full swing, and if they had used him properly, you wouldn't have cared about what your initial thoughts of the film where, because you would have been completely roped right into it regardless.

However, I won't deny I did enjoy watching it the first time, despite the translation also leaving something to be desired, but I certainly wouldn't hold it in too high a regard.

PS. I hope none of the above is regarded as a spoiler. I've no idea how to envelope text, but I didn't think any of the above was too revealing. If it is, please edit accordingly.

PSS. I fully understand that all of the above is merely my 'opinion'.

And this post DIDN'T spoil it for you Fallacy?. Give me a break.

Fallacy

I didn't read that one.

RopeDrink

So, just so my posts aren't used as such a reference again, how do I envelope the text?

Also, you can tell Sepiroth was going to make an appearance in the film from the trailer, anyway, considering it showed him in the infamous 'Wading Through The Fire' clip from the game... Otherwise, it would have been one dissapointing pimp method.

type spoiler enclosed in [] then the message, type /spoiler enclosed in [] when finished

Like this?

Innnnteerressting.

Yeah he was listed as providing a voice over for a character named Mr Coates (the corel prison chief in the game), seeing as this character isn't in the movie, it's a hoax alright.

Eva24

MY Brother saw it in DCU last week. Despite the 'wrongness' of it all and he said it's absolutely brillant but will mean nothing to anyone that doesn't know the Game :rolleyes:

Cy_Revenant

I saw it and loved every last second of it!

But I didn't like that Sephiroth was so EVIL. After all, we all know that he was just misunderstood!

Dinh_Gunslinger

I got it from a friend a few weeks back when he came back from Japan. We coded the subtitles to English and hey presto...Awesome movie!!! Huge fan of the FF series but VII is definetely my favourite, hands down.

Can't wait to buy it when it's released with the voice overs

If rumours are anything to go by I can imagine the European release being of incredibly poor quality in terms of voice acting.

SeantheMan

Seen it, watched it 3 times, and its amazing every time
The 2nd time i watched it with a friend who had never played FF before, and he could appreciate how brilliant it was and really enjoyed it

Though for us FF fans it will mean a lot more and youll cop on to a few things a lot quicker and understand more

Also, for anyone who hasnt seen it, get "Last Order" aswell
That follows the events of Zack and Cloud and Sephiroth during the Mako Reactor episode

Cy_Revenant

Last Order?
Never heard of it. Is it a fan vid? An anime?
You've piqued my interest, were can I find out more?

Vokes

Its an animated short that accompanies AC on the Japanese dvd. Its set in the intervening years between VII and AC.

SeantheMan

Yeah, its a 20 min long japanese Anime that revisits the Mako Reactor Event in nibelheim Mountains

Retr0gamer

I edited your post. Don't mention filesharing programs please.

Kakistos

I'm a huge ff fan and i wasn't really blown away

the fight with bahamut was way too overstated. cool. but overstated.

Retr0gamer

The general concensous seems to be that the film is a load of crapola. Bad to fair reviews all round even from the FF websites with mature reviews. The only good reviews I've seen were on about how FFAC 'ROCKS' or the 'awesome'ness of the action sequences.

Laguna

Indeed RetroGamer, I read the reviews prior to seeing it and, as you say, all the mature reviewers said it was bad, all the goth/hate the world American teenage reviewers said it "RAAAWKKED!"/"TOTALLY AWESOME".

I saw it myself and thought it was terrible, this coming from the ultimate fan of Final Fantasy 7 (if I do say so myself )

airetam_storm

The first 45 mins or so was quite good as the story was reasonable and the fights were new and flashy but after that the story just faded to nothing and the fight with Bahamut was long and drawn out

Final Fantasy VII for the PS3 might do something to remedy the poor state square-enix have reduced the FFVII badge to...
