I want to see more Quina too. Especially since we figured out the neuter they since publishing the game.

be careful Mr Ballman, remember that some time in the 2000's there was a ff movie, that felt nothing like final fantasy, some type space adventure. Fool me once, shame on me, fool me twice... that's a strike

I enjoyed the film since it tried to blend science fiction and fantasy elements. The team at Square Pictures should have kept a tighter control on the story to keep it from getting overly convoluted though. It shouldn't have been called Final Fantasy at all, that only served to confuse and disappoint fans.

Hey they got movie theatre money out of me for that. It is everyone else who didn't see it that is clearly at fault for that blunder.

[–] mushroommunk@lemmy.today 1 points 1 day ago

If you aren't aware they've released two other movies since then. The FFVII sequel film "Advent Children" and "Kingsglaive" set in the FFXV universe.

Yeah it was terrible. Pretty but not a good movie at all. I was excited for that one too and when I saw the reviews decided to rent it instead. I'll do the same here.

Wait, I only just now looked it up to realize spirits within didn't do well... People don't like it? I thought it was really good. It felt very much in-line with a final fantasy type story, just without the grinding combat for hours part. Hehe.

[–] mushroommunk@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

A lot of people mindlessly expected more fantasy and don't really understand that the underlying theme for like every final fantasy game is environmentalism, anti corruption, legacy, and fellowship, not just chocobos and crystals

excuse me but I WANT TO RIDE MY CHOCOBO ALL DAY

[–] mushroommunk@lemmy.today 1 points 22 hours ago

Have fun. I'll keep napping in my moogle cuddle puddle

My nostalgia is screaming with joy today. Vivi is my idol.

[–] ashenone@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 day ago

Hell yea I need more Vivi in my life

[–] popcar2@piefed.ca 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Surely this means they'll announce the rumored FF9 Remake soon so they both release near the same time... Surely...

[–] Cheems@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Remake or remaster

[–] NoTagBacks@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

Hoo boy. My favorite FF. Considering how specific many of the design and aesthetic elements were, doing the game justice won't be easy, requiring an amount of effort that I'm not confident will be honored. I'd love to be proven wrong, though.

I hope this is an 8-bit theatre spinoff.

[–] mycodesucks@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

So... this is an anime about Bobby Corwen, right?
