FF Advent Children

[nikko76]

Final Fantasy is now available. It is 1hr. 40++ mins.

Here is the basic plot:

Set two years after the events of Final Fantasy VII, Cloud now leads a solitary life traveling the Planet as a transporter. The office of Strife Delivery Service is located in 7th Heaven, which also functions as an orphanage for children stricken with Geostigma.

Three new enemies make an appearance in Advent Children. Kadaj, their leader, is in his teens, while Yazoo and Loz are known to be in their twenties. In them, Cloud sees shadows of FFVII’s fallen hero, Sephiroth. The three are after “Mother” and refer to Cloud as their “Brother”. Having obtained Jenova’s head, their purpose appears to be to start another Reunion.

A non-contagious disease known as Geostigma is spreading across the Planet, with Kadaj claiming that it is due to Jenova’s cells working hard in the Lifestream. Children tend to show signs of Geostigma first, though adults are susceptible to the disease as well. Symptoms of Geostigma include mental weakness, pain and even death. Cloud is known to suffer from this disease though he hides his affected arm beneath his sleeve.

Here are some points:

1. Cloud's friends are back. Barret wears a white army vest and a 3 barrel gatling gun. Yuffie still has her large shuriken (I like how CG of Yuffie). Red XIII is accompanied by that little cat from that gambling city. Cid is still cid. Vincent is still vincent. Tifa and Marlene looks good.

2. We get to see one guardian force Bahamut Sin

3. Cloud rides an upgraded form of his Harley Daytona. The bike also conceals Cloud's different bastard swords.

4. There were some familiar scenes from the game that was incorporated into the movie.

5. We get to see 2 of Cloud's finishing moves. He has a new move, more like FF8's gilgamesh. The difference, Gilgamesh must choose one. Cloud, on the other hand uses his 5 or 6 bastard swords.

-The CG of Advent Children is somewhat an upgraded form from FF X and FF X.2.

- Overall, I grade FF Advent Children an 8.5.

- Malamang I know why mahal ang Advent Children Cloud toy line. The figure of cloud will come with his bike and his swords. Oh well....

Aerith....what happened to her?

[Chaoz]

[UchihaItachi]

Naalala niyo ba yung rumor na puwede daw buhayin si Aerith sa later part ng game? Hehehe, ungas yung Rumor Monger na yun kekeke.

[fenrir72]

There was a clip which showed her in a dream sequence with Cloud.

Additional bonus, there will be an anime scene/extra called Last Order. It details the events that occured prior to and during the time sepiroth went berzerk and sliced up Tifa and Zack's death.

Correction: Zack didn't die from Sephiroth. He died from saving Cloud.

[archaznable]

well interms of bootleg hehehe yes ive seen one as usual .... ;D

[ulquiorra]

where can i buy FF7 AC DVD?

[patacat]

oh man! i just finished watching FF7 AC and it-was-aw-some!!!!! fights scenes were fast and furious. so fast and furious that it may be too fast and furious for some to follow, especially while reading the subtitles.

cloud is sooooo powerful!!! he uses seven swords (i think) that combine into one. and has a limit break with it that he uses near the end. that one you gotta watch out for.

tifa rocks! her fight with loz was feirce. she fights matrix style. and of course, she was hot.

vincent? everything about him was cool. his john woo shooting style, his cool new power with his cape, the way he stands in the corner and says things, all cool.

barret is still my least favorite character. his attacks barely did anything to their opponent.

yuffie is cute jax. gotta agree with you on that.

red XIII showed off his luna attack limit break, i think.

and cid (my favorite) didn't do much , except stab bahamut sin on the head several times and introduce his new airship, the mark sierra.

the shinra posse were awsome in their own right. though reno did look a lot like hoawarang from tekken.

aerith and zack are there but they were more like extras than anything else. though aerith is an integral part of the story, on cloud's part anyways.

and of course, sephiroth. he is still as mean as ever. powerful and mean. like bite-your-head-off-and-spit-it-out mean. SEPHIROTH: "think of the thing dearest to you. now let me take it away." see what i mean?

the story was good but not great. it'll not get you bored and easy to understand and it'll leave you wanting more. and that's the problem i found: it was too short. plus, as much as i liked it, it kinda felt like i enjoyed it partly because of the nostalgia. but hey, it still is a great watch whether you've played the game or not. but you'd appreciate it more if you've played the game.
