If they don't do well with AC, they wont get the sales they want on the rest of the FF7 compilation.


That's what I'm afraid of. For this reason, they may end up doing pure fanservice instead of challenging viewers with bold and decisive storytelling.

They WILL be getting the sales based on hype alone. People are going to think AC is fanservice no matter how it turns out. Personally I will be happy with just a continuation of Cloud's story and I hope they don't do anything with the love triangle. It would lower my view of the real story of FFVII in my eyes. It's about Cloud, Sephiroth, etc. Not OMFG CLOD LURVES TEEFA!1

Oh yes, that I'd have to agree with, Jenova. I wouldn't really want the love triangle to ruin everything for the movie as much as it ruined the game. After all, Advent Children isn't a love story, right? Although don't you guys wish sometimes that they'd make a side story (and I don't mean the 20-minute film with Cloud and Tifa in it).? :unsure:

And I remember hearing that Nomura himself was the one who wanted Aeris to die so he could bring up Tifa. So, I'm just scared beyond hope, providing a cynical voice of reason to hopeful AC fans - just kidding :angel: .

I know the quote makes it sound like he prefers Tifa over Aerith, but bear in mind, impressions can be wrong-- I've heard that he was quite mad at how flippant the magazine made it sound, actually.

Regardless, whatever Nomura's personal feelings are about the characters, I doubt he would let it cloud his judgement over AC. These are professionals, not fangirls blatantly pushing for their favourites at the expense of a good story. I'm hopeful that, as a professional, he would know how to write a good movie and use each character in the best way possible to expand the story.

If that means Aerith gets only ten seconds of screentime, well. So long as it works in furthering the plot, and is properly done, I will probably be happy. Be pissed off that that will mean less icons of her and stuff, but nevertheless, not wondering if SE had "taken sides".

Exactly.

As for a side-story-- I'd actually thought the date mechanism was a bit of a side-story. ^^ I don't know if I could stomach a whole 20 minutes or so of Cloud wondering which girl he liked... I'm more in favour of throwing vague hints a la the game. ^^
