In all the sensibility I can be arsed to muster at this present time...

FF:SW is better for story/movie/something to actually sit down and watch

FF:AC wins for being mashed and seeing Tifa and her gargantuan dinners get all Chun Li in the best animated battle scene ever
Thats fair comment
But if your a hardcore FF7 fan then AC is the only way really
I have just installed FF7 on my PC and found a XP patch.

The next 6 weeks of life will be a blur... :icon32:
>:E do i really have to keep telling you? play it on psx; the music's nerfed on the pc version :G :G :G

FFVII AC is just FFVII the movie. right onto Cloud doing his Climhazzard limit break with matching stance :eek: if you never played the game, dont bother. if you did, watch it >:E

Lord of War

8/10

There's a pretty powerful message in it and how the arms dealing business is fucked up.

I ALMOST switched my PS on straight after the film. Until Chunk's wise reminder that it would just look shit.
Plus I couldn't find the power cable.

Really though, watch this then FF.SW straight after. One is oh-so high quality cutscenes glued together to last 2 hours. The other is a film.

One point is the actual animation and facial expressions. FF:SW looks real and the characters are acting.

In AC, Cloud spends the entire movie with an constant expression that explained nothing more than it probably hurt an awful lot when he took a piss
want a copy of the PC version?
Hardware rendered?
Sure there will be a way to up the rez
640*480 atm which is twice the rez of the PS1 version?

Dark Water - 2/10

People always try to talk me into watching that japano crap.

If you had played the Final Fantasy 7 game it would have. I just watched this yesterday, and it was excellent. 8/10

Japanese people are the worst movie makers ever. I have yet to see a japanese movie (or a movie based on a japanese story or whatever) that wasn't complete and total shit.

you have yet to see an actual jap movie then.
Dark Water is a remake, and as with The Ring and The Grudge; its plagued with hollywood scares and influences :(

It's a personal opinion, of course. But somehow japanese movies always seem very, very clichéd to me. I always go into a movie thinking "Wow, this is japanese, it's going to be totally different!" and I come out thinking "WTF? I thought making the bad guy look ugly went out of style in the 30's?" Seriously, it's so predictable.

Go watch something from Takashi Miike or Kinji Fukasaku.

Like Ichi the Killer or Battle Royal.

(i'm actually only recommending that Fukasaku guy for Battle Royal. I recommend most of Miike as it's fucking brilliant)

I wouldn't exactly call Battle Royal a good movie. A rather shocking concept yes, but in terms of quality it doesn't score much higher than the average Rambo movie.

Don't listen to him or anybody else who ever wants you to watch a japanese movie.
