I agree. We can all here along right? Oh thanks Jkozzy for telling me where you got the cool pics! I think when seph killed her it made him one of the most evil characters in video game history. 😮 I think the reason I wasn't a fan of her was because Tifa was my fav from day one and then Aries came and fell for cloud really fast!
Guys, talk about the movie, not about the game, nor any smalltalk. This isn't a social thread, as I said before that happened.

I'm assuming so. The MSRP is always like thirty bucks for DVDs, but stores luckily sell them for much less. I could see AC being $16.99 (at least at Target, this is how most DVD releases go) for the first 5 days, and the next Sunday it'll be $19.99. UMD movies seem to be, for older movies, about $14.99. More recent movies are about $24.99 on average, so I can see AC being that much, but maybe $19.99. It really all depends on the store, but the trend is for the UMD movies to include less in terms of special features and content, and more on the priceside. Personally, if I were going to get a portable, I wouldn't have based my decision on the UMD movies. It's great and all, and yeah, you can bring it anywhere, but honestly. It's a nice clear screen and all, but the battery life blows, and... it's a tiny screen. Someone said on another forum, well, would they rather watch it on their dusty 27" TV or their PSP? They fail to point out that the PSP screen is like a 3" widescreen. At such a bloated pricetag, I would, and have, invested in a portable DVD player with easily 4x the screen size for half the price. Bit of a rant there, but eh.
UMD will probably be more expensive. That's where Sony makes their money. 🙂

just wanted to add. dvd would be better cause you would be able to watch it on a big screen tv and pump up the system to for maximum experience! W00t!!!
nothing can compare to that, except maybe if you were in a cinema but, its not coming out in cinemas... so this is the next best thing

Actually its very long to read but ill just read the intro!Spoiler:
A distant noise, the galloping of hoofs that grows nearer and nearer. A desert plain, a red and ancient beast followed by his trail of children are running towards a peek. Then the creature jumps higher and higher, climbing the peak in no time followed by his little kittens. At the top of the mountain, the ruins of an old human city covered with grass stand as the dominant landscape. Seaguls take fly while the beast, Nanaki, emits a powerful roar from his mouth that means: " The Planet is alive just like me and my children! "Then a text line appears on a black screen:
Spoiler:
" 498 YEARS BEFORE ".The Northern Cave. An elicopter with the Turks on board flies over it, sent by the Shin-Ra to retrieve a precious " object " that was supposedly left there (Jenova' s head) . We see the elicopter descend, and then we just hear the voices of the Turks in alarm, just like they found something unexpected and dangerous down there.
" What the... "
" Be careful, it' s... "
Shots from a machine gun are heard, then other voices, among them Elena' s:
" Senpai, watch out... aaahhh "
And then silence.
Marlene, with her candid voice, speaks of the events that occurred two years before today, events that involved the Planet and all life on it, while a Gregorian Chant (the same on the official Japanese website) plays in the background.
" Lifestream. It flows all around the Planet, and it' s the origin of all life forms. The origin of everything. The Shin-Ra company exploited the Lifestream to turn it into an energy source, improving our lives.
But there were people who believed that by draining the Lifestream from the Planet, the Planet would wither and die. Those at Shin-Ra tried to silence those voices of protests that opposed them. And therefore, SOLDIERs were created by infusing the cells of the Calamity from the Skies, that had fallen into the Planet many years before.
And among them, the greatest of all was Sephiroth. However, he soon discovered his true, cursed origin. And because of that, he began to hate Shin-Ra... then he came to hate everything... Shin-Ra as well as those fighting for the Planet.
Sephiroth, drenched in hatred, began his scheme to destroy everything... And those who were struggling for the salvation of the Planet confronted him... Everyone was entangled in a bloody war.
It was then that the person we all cared most for perished, becoming one with the Lifestream.
Then the Planet, in order to stop its enemies, used the Lifestream and created WEAPON with it. The Lifestream gushed out and enveloped the Planet, and every feeling was enveloped the same way... hate... sadness... sorrow... ambition...
They said to me that sadness was the price for the Planet to be saved.
But it seems the Planet is way angrier at us than we ever thought."
for storm only!

Spoiler:
Another great fight takes place between Cloud and Kadaj, a sort of final showdown that couldn' t be faced before. But first, Cloud asks Kadaj:" When the Reunion takes place, what will happen next? ...You wouldn' t know, would you? After all, you' re just a Remnant, you cannot possibly know. "
Kadaj gets irritated by those words, and replies to Cloud:
" So I' m just a puppet, right... but so were... you!!! "
And another powerful magic blast is launched from his arm, but Cloud avoids it by jumping high and coming towards his opponent.Cloud' s friends have come aboard the Sierra, and are now watching the fight. They begin discussing Kadaj' s existence.
" Kadaj' s a Remnant, and he is destined to eventually become Sephiroth. Is Cloud aware of that? "
" Maybe. " answers Barret.
" I' ve brought a lot of Materia for Cloud! " says Yuffie, trying to hold within her arms a whole bunch of colored spheres.
" If it' s Sephiroth, then it' best for Cloud to face him alone. " says Tifa calmly. Then she adds: " In the final battle of two years ago, a particular strength we managed to use... Remember how it felt? Remember how it was like? Well, now I believe that Cloud has remembered those emotions... what it meant to be strong. "
" I' m giving him 10 minutes! " gruntles Barret, impatient to join Cloud in the fighting.
The battle is indeed hard, but in the end, Cloud wins again, Kadaj loses his sword which fall down for thousand of meters, and he too would be destined to follow it. However, he does not fall, for Cloud stretches out his hand to grab Kadaj' s and save his life.
Nevertheless, the boy lets go Cloud' s hand, and holding tight to his chest the small box he had retrieved he entrusts his whole self to his " Mother " . Something begins to change in Kadaj while he floats in the air, and Cloud jumps to try and reach him before it is too late. But when the two land on some platform, the transformation takes place: long hair begins to flow from Kadaj' head, his outfit morphes, his face turns into another thinner and more adult, and a long katana takes shape horizontally from one side to the other." Long time no see, Cloud. " says a malicious voice, that is no more Kadaj' s, but is instead the voice of Cloud' s nemesis, the voice of the one he could not get rid of yet, from his body as well as from his mind. The voice of Sephiroth.
