If it was a movie based on the exact same plot that was in the game, perhaps, although I still think it's too much of a love story to impress me. However, I just thought the developers would have been more motivated to do a movie on a new plot, but with FF8, the ending isn't entirely open ended.

But this is a thread concerning a Final Fantasy 8 Movie , not a game making your post irrelevant . Also the FFX movie is just a rumour that has been circulating on french sites .

You could, however, apply the concept to movies. Graphics don't necessarily make a good movie. Throwing together a bunch of cool looking effects wouldn't make much of a movie. A quality plot with well developed characters, a central theme that can be discussed and interpreted and good focus are still the main elements of a movie or a game. They may be different, but as media, the same storytelling elements and appeal still apply.

What possible plot could they make with Final Fantasy VIII? I heard the ending concluded the game. So I don't really see how it could be made into a movie. Then again, what's with this thing about Final Fantasy games being made into movies?

I absolutly agree with you. Theres no point in making any other FF movie. They all concluded. So it would be pointless to think what they could do.

I don't want to see continuation movies, there's games for that. I would prefer to either see a remake for FFVI, VII and VIII or a movie based on these games. Maybe the reason AC wasn't worshipped too much is because it was a sequel, with no foundations for a good movie. Also, SQURE hadn't written a movie script before.
Conclusion: Remake or movie based on the actual games, not sequels or prequels.

final fantasy VIII was a terrific game. noone gives it any credit and continues to go on and on about VII. i liked ff8, the characters, storyline, and length of the game was perfect. i'd love to see a movie on it. if they can do one for VII, then why not VIII?

If it's all about taste, then saying that FFVIII is good is subjective. Perhaps if they can make a movie off of FFVII they can make one of FFVIII. But as said before, the ambiguity in FFVII gives a good reason to make a movie off of it. I realize that AC was a bit of a fanservice, but I'm quite sure that wasn't the only reason they decided to do it. If all FFVIII has going for it is "fanservice", then maybe the only reason there isn't a movie on FFVIII is because the developers don't want to or don't feel like making a movie off of FFVIII.

It has romance, action and comedy. But everything was wrapped up at the end of the game and I dont know what the movie would move around. Maybe a new cast of characters? But then it wouldnt be Final Fantasy. I dont know.
