I kinda hope the will not be one, but i'm not against it entirely, i mean FFVII had an open ending so i wanted to know what happened next but i can't be sure about this one as i have not played it yet. This is not like the FFVII one as each game will take place in a different place and they have no ties to each other besides the crystals where as all the FFVII titles take place next to each other and are in the same world.

All of the games so far are unrelated with the exception of the Mythology and universe...they could do a movie that stands alone in the same way and im actually expecting there to be a movie or anime of some sort.
It's possible but fitting the entire story of a Final Fantasy into a movie without any prequels to help would be hard. Spirits Within suffered from that. I think an Anime would be a better route to go but FF Unlimited was pretty bad....except for the credits.
Well a CG movie completely unrelated to any of the games doesnt need to have a huge story backing it...just a flashy CG movie...Im shure Square would have no problem with that

Well...not sure how confident they would be doing that again. Nah it doesn't require an epic story but I think many fans would expect one.

Square might be bad at anime, but you gotta remember - they're with Enix now. As far as I'm aware, Enix are responcible for Fullmetal Alchemist.
Fullmetal Alchemist was definitely one of my favourite animes, probably one of the best ever made imo. If Enix can make a FNC anime at the same quality as FMA, I'm all for a FNC anime.
I think that they could, and probably will do a movie eventually. It's hard to say atm though, guess we'll have to wait and see.
Seeing as I've seen Advent Children all I can say is... PLEASE GOD NO. I don't want to see another film with only a passing attempt at narrative punctured by fight scenes every 8 seconds.

Advent Children wasn't planned though, so of course it's gonna be a half arsed narrative. If it was planned from the very start, it could've been amazing - like a FNC movie could be amazing.
What I mean is, Final Fantasy VII was released without a sequel in mind; so making a good narrative is always going to be awkward.
I agree it was probably the whole pointless sequel thing and also the fact that there was no character development because they didn't want to 'ruin' VII, so we just got random cameos.
However part of me does feel that they'd develop all this pretty new CGI and they won't be happy just to use it to create good facial animations and movements to covey feeling and yadaa yadda yadda, nah they'll mainly just use it so some guy can fling himself around on a sword for 90 minutes.
Élan, thats the exact reason I didn't like it. It was so unrealistic (narratively I mean, before any smartass goes on about 'well people can't fly about and use magic and blahblahblah!'). Two years can't pass as well huge events drawing people together without SOMETHING happening to them.
It reminded me of those reunion shows that pop up from long discontinued TV shows; pointless, grubby and totally unneeded
To be honest as long as it has a good concept, a FNC film would be able to avoid all these pitfalls, seeing as it will have new characters and such. Still don't trust them though
