Erm yeah, why is this film named after final fantasy, what the hell does have to do with final fantasy?! Im guessing it was made/directed by someone who creates final fantasy...
I reckon they just used that as an excuse to call it 'final fantasy' so they could actually make some money out of an average film

Square Soft made it...and they decided to call it Final Fantasy....

But i bet they called it Final Fantasy just to attract fans of the series and milk some quick and easy money

Yep, it was just a money spinner. Square's team basically raped some poor programs on their computers, and gave the child a nice name to make it look better. It's disgusting

Agreed. Its a damn shame. The movie wasn't even that good. What pisses me off the most is that someone not familiar with FF in general check this movie out and say "Dag Final Fantasy games must suck". It just puts a tarnish on the whole FF name.


Thats why I was so glad to see Advent Children

Then you see Advent Children, and realize you didn't get anything out of that either. Maybe Squenix should just stick to games.

Yeah. Games.
That's their main selling point.
Mind, I thought Advent Children was good, not great, good. But only eye candy though.

As for the Spirits Within, I basically stopped watching it a quarter of the way through. It was boring, to be honest.
