Now Viewing: final_fantasy_vii_advent_childrenTag type: Copyright CG film sequel to Final_Fantasy_VII. It is the second CG movie Square has created, but this film was much more successful than their previous attempt Final Fantasy The Spirits Within which was a major box office flop. It was released on September 14, 2005 and received a rerelease for Blu-ray titled Advent Children Complete that adds more footage to the film and is also bloodier than the original which had virtually no bloodshed despite the frequent action. It is directed by Nomura_Tetsuya and written by Nojima Kazushige. Uematsu Nobuo returns as composer and rearranges many of the themes from the original game into orchestral pieces and even heavy metal pieces. As the film is a direct sequel, it treats certain plot twists and surprise revelations from the game as common knowledge. It has been two years since Cloud Strife and co. have saved the world from Sephiroth and JENOVA. The heroes have gone their separate ways and Cloud is living with his childhood friend/love interest Tifa Lockhart in the city of Edge, located close to the city Midgar, taking care of various children including their friend Barret Wallace's daughter Marlene and orphan Denzel. Yet Cloud is still deeply troubled by the events of Final Fantasy VII and on top of that he, Denzel, and many other citizens are infected with the terminal illness Geostigma of which there is no known cure. A new threat also arrives in the form of three white haired young men who are reminiscent of Sephiroth: Kadaj, Yazoo, and Loz. They are looking for their 'mother' JENOVA in order to revive Sephiroth. The now apparently handicapped Rufus Shinra asks Cloud to help him defeat them, but Cloud is initially reluctant. Things soon grow more personal for Cloud once Loz defeats Tifa and the three white haired men manipulate various Geostigma infected orphans into accompanying them to the Forgotten Capital of the Ancients. Cloud tries to save the children, but fails and is instead saved by his friend Vincent Valentine who informs Cloud of the men's goals. Cloud decides to face the white haired men head on and cleanse his inner demons. The film provided new outfits for quite a few of the returning characters. Cloud and Tifa sported their looks for this film in the game Kingdom Hearts II. Tifa also wears her Advent Children outfit in the crossover animation Dead Fantasy. For the fight scenes, Nomura Tetsuya told the animators to go with anything that they think would be coolest resulting in the film's numerous and very exaggerated fight scenes. The film was originally intended to be much shorter though it would have still involved Cloud, Tifa, and the children. Strong fan interest in the project convinced the filmmakers to expand the project into a feature length film.
