Yeah, Spirits Within only managed to impress visually (meaning my mom would have loved it, I'm rather surprised how many of those stupid iMAX demo "movies" she went to before they started putting REAL movies in there). It just had nothing that made it FF at all. This'll be the 3rd Final Fantasy movie made, and the 2nd decent one it seems. One day I plan on actually getting that first FF movie, the one that takes place a century after FF5 (it was anime).
Wow, that's barely a paragraph at all. Anyway, Spirits Within... Imagine FF, but take out the totally original world, magic, incredibly deep story and deep characters, and anything else you can think of, and then add a cheesy action movie storyline and a pathetic badly designed "villian", oh and toss in Gaia just to kinda pretend it's Final Fantasy-ish, and you have that movie.
I certainly think this'll be better since it's not going to be written by some Japanese guy who thinks US action movies are deeper than they really are or whatever he was thinking.
