Synopsis:
The magical kingdom of Lucis is home to the sacred Crystal, and the menacing empire of Niflheim is determined to steal it. King Regis of Lucis (Sean Bean) commands an elite force of soldiers called the Kingsglaive. Wielding their king’s magic, Nyx (Aaron Paul) and his fellow soldiers fight to protect Lucis. As the overwhelming military might of the empire bears down, King Regis is faced with an impossible ultimatum – to marry his son, Prince Noctis to Princess Lunafreya of Tenebrae (Lena Headey), captive of Niflheim, and surrender his lands to the empire’s rule. Although the king concedes, it becomes clear that the empire will stop at nothing to achieve their devious goals, with only the Kingsglaive standing between them and world domination.

The main problem of that other Final Fantasy movie was that it had the name Final Fantasy

 

[CathyRina]

i got some shit because of that opinion on youtube but Idc.
If FF15 ends up sucking just like FF13 did then I hope Square will start making CGI FF movies instead of FF games because god damn look at this CGI.
At some points I were confused whenever its real or computer generated.

Those cars look so out of place.....

I pre-ordered the Ultimate Collectors Edition when they announced it and omg my brain is melting. This is going to be so much better than that CGI Warcraft movie!

You get paid when you donate blood? Damn.

All my local blood bank gives me is pizza and orange juice for donating.

I may just donate an egg to get myself a 4K smart TV, a PS4, and the collector's edition.

I believe it has better storyline than FFVIIAC since they are releasing this before the game? AC also had good graphics on its day(didn't it?) but it lacked good story and relied much on the fame of the game. This time it seems they're trying to attract people to the game with the movie, which means we can expect something better than AC.

Don't forget about final fantasy: the spirits within. I remember most of my friends going "wat" after having finished it.

Yea it just had no relationship whatsoever with the Final Fantasy universe honestly. The quality of the animation was crazy at the time. It was an ok animation film apart from that.

Fancy graphics aside, this looks as dull as balls. Am I supposed to watch before, during or after the game?

before

 

[the_randomizer]

As long as it's not like the other Final Fantasy movie that was FF in name only, I'll watch it for sure.

 

[Taleweaver]

It features Sean Bean as a king. I wonder...will anyone in the audience be surprised when he dies in the movie?

In any case: I'll pass. The trailer and prior knowledge of final fantasy tells me that this isn't so much a movie as it is spectacle porn. and I prefer movies where the action scenes are the means to an end rather than that the plot serves as a thin excuse for the action.
