[B]I'm sorry, but that movie made no damn sense to me at all.... Now, the visuals were absolutely spectacular...I spent half the movie just watching the animation. It won't be long now before we can't tell the difference between a CG person and a real one. Maybe another 5-10 years, if that long.

Anyway, having never played the Final Fantasy games, I may be missing some key elements to understanding the plot. Are the movie and the games connected? Some examples (and I'll try not to be a spoiler): What the hell are these "8 Spirits" things? How are the humans tracking them? How do they even know there are 8 of them?

Does any of you guys worked on the FF Movie Project? The graphics is absolutly fantastic. I was wondering what kind of programming languange (or programs )and machine that use to render the whole movie. I bet it must takes forever to render those shots.

Anybody?

Heh heh, I was wondering if you were going to notice that .

As for the movie, I just wish they had bothered to provide a little more background...all they said was "It's been 30 years since the Phantoms came here." Well what the heck happened in those 30 years? How'd the humans figure out what was happening, since the Phantoms are invisible? How'd they develop the hardware to see them? How'd they develop the guns? And the shields? How bout some more info on the relationship between Aki and the Captain? Aki and the Doctor? The need to explain what's happening when someone gets "infected" too. There was so much potential for a really cool setting and all they gave us was skin-deep.
