I'll be back in 6 weeks while I let my beard become unkempt and pound 10 Thunder Cloud subs a day. But when I return prepare for a treatise on why Austin is the most amazing city on earth and a blue haven in a red hell.
This movie deserved to bomb so hard, and it did so well. Let's take a very successful games, and make a movie that has NOTHING TO DO WITH THEM! Swords, magic, airships?
Fuck you, will make a sci-fi movie with alien ghosts! But still talk about Gaia! See! It is Final Fantasy!
Agreed on Final Fantasy - the CGI was very impressive, the tech on display was great, the story was lousy. I know next to nothing about Final Fantasy games save for screenshots and cutscenes I've seen on the web, but where was all that cool shit in the flick?
There was no way in hell it would ever be profitable either. They damn near bought some small island in Hawaii and built a MASSIVE server farm on it to make the movie. Who knows the real budget on it.
