Movie - Final Fantasy: Terra

[Salem_Rain]

Here is a pretty impressive trailer for the fan film Final Fantasy: Terra based on Final Fantasy VI of course - my favorite game from the Final Fantasy catalog (XIV:ARR not withstanding of course.)

One could nitpick that some of the actors do not necessarily look like the characters, but I applaud their effort, the quality of the project, and the production value - and most importantly, I'm pleased with Terra's casting if nothing else - at least from what little is shown here.

And auto-crossbow!

This is really cool, I so hope it gets made!

This alone should be proof of the insane fandom for this title, serving as more than enough incentive for 6 to be remade on a modern console, even if the game is so large in scope that it has to be broken up over several episodes. They went crazy mad on 7 and made upteen different versions and spinoffs and for some strange reason only remade kiddy versions of 6 on the PS1 and Nintendo DS, still mimicking the 16 bit graphics instead of translating these characters and their stories into the modern video game medium.

Cue Square Enix hitting them with a Cease and Desist order.

Looks really cheesy, but if nothing else the effort is commendable. xD

It's nice and has a lot of passion involved but, this has a LOT more GoT/LotR feel to it as opposed to FF. Music especially, final fantasy's music has been compared to Mozart, this is almost insulting IMHO.

While I think the plot to FFVI is one of the better suited for a movie and I do like their vision, the trailer was meh. The idea that they will produce the film based off using the trailer to coax SE to allow them permission to make a movie off one of their masterpieces is slightly whimsical. Even though Square pictures and SE clearly failed at their own attempts of making movies as impacting as their games I don't see them allowing others to have a go at it. Also, I fear that a kickstarter movie would be of lesser quality and if they make the movie of the same quality as the trailer I think I would rip my eyes out because it is just bad enough to piss me off. I've noticed they have another movie Divination, I'll watch that and see if they are worth spending a bit on helping the kickstarter.

Even with all that said, I'm excited for any FF making it to the big screen. I grew up on these games and always hoped of a good list of them making it to a movie format. Maybe a kickstarter would provide them with enough funding to make an immersive, enjoyable film. Unfortunately history has taught me not to get my hopes up. I still wish them the best though.

I would have liked it better if the actors who portrayed Kefka and Edgar actually looked more the part. But nonetheless it's... Okay at best.
