Advent Children Complete North American Debut Trailer?

[Tennyo]

I think SE just has those form letters so that when something really does piss them off enough to actually give a shit they can act upon it. That's usually what disclaimers are anyway; just a way to cover your ass when it all finally hits the fan.

So does this mean the no one will actually take the time to read what I wrote? D:

 

[Isabella]

Maybe. Sometime after April 16.

Well, where does GameTrailers get their trailers from? Do they just accept them from anyone?

 

[Tennyo]

I've often wondered that myself. I always assumed they had higher standards but I guess not?

 

[KuraudoStrife]

Tennyo what makes me get amazed is...this trailer was posted by GT Staff...it wasn't a user movie....take a look here...they say that it's official. And also...their logo on the video...make things lots more suspicious...

[Tennyo]

wtf Game Trailers seriously sucks. And you can't even comment unless you sign up. I see their evil scheme. They probably have so much money from advertisements that they must not even worried about lawsuits.

Grr...

 

[Isabella]

I wonder if those poor German guys really are in the dark. heh. And what does GT stand to gain from making a fake trailer? Just the lulz? Or is it just for the traffic it generates?

 

[KuraudoStrife]

They have a name to care.... It's really strange thing comming from GT..

According to Tet who messaged the band on Myspace, they said that it was official and that they were honoured to be featured. :/

 

[Isabella]

That band's getting a lot of exposure to their music that they otherwise wouldn't have gotten.

I wonder what they mean by "This custom edit was provided by Media Magik." Is this the company that made that crappy trailer? I'm not sure what other edit the band would be referring to.

Too bad that song is so generic it hurts

This is the second time this year that sites gives false information about SQEX titles. First was the Dissidia and KH 358/2 Days US release...who SQEX said it was fake... now comes this atrocity...what comes next?

Final Fantasy VII remake rumors? Personally I miss them...

 

[Shademp]

FFVII Remake rumours FTW. This remake certainly has a long history, going back to the remake plans before Spirits Within. Did you know that had not Spirits Within been a failure, we would have seen remakes of FFVII-FFIX for the PS2?
I am glad it never happened. Would have been too soon.

But Nomura and Kitase better get the team together soon. I want my FFVII Remake; that way I'll be even more motivated to finish my perfect game challenge of the original.

Hey Tennyo, did you see he answered your vicious attack on MySpace?

Standing by the story that it's official. He could be lying, but I have a feeling he's either unaware, or *gasp* it's a real ad.

 

[Tetsujin]

I think they are actually unaware.

No way really? XD I didn't realize I was really that "vicious."

And I hope you are joking with the whole considering it may be real thing.

EDIT: Well I guess he was being nice about it. It seems to me like these people really do think it is legit. XD

But wow. So I guess we should all start watching MTV or whatever networks Viacom owns to see if this trailer is really running.

I was teasing you, hence the wink.

I thought you meant that the guy thought I was vicious. I knew you probably wouldn't think so.

 

[Isabella]

I almost feel sorry for the band. They don't seem to know what's going on either.

I don't understand why Viacom would request its own custom trailer to air. Unless Viacom and SE are associated somehow, which I doubt, Viacom would just be selling ad space. It should be SE requesting an ad for Viacom's target audience and not the other way around. Unless there's a big, gaping hole in my knowledge of mass media, which is entirely possible.

 

[Tennyo]

Yeah I think I'll leave the poor band alone. They seem really genuine, which to me says that they are being taken advantage of and lied to. Poor things. :'( But I might be tempted to mention to them what you just said Bella, if you don't mind.

Anyway someone posted this screencap on GT of an email they got from SE:

http://www.cloud1414.entitys-arena.co.uk/cutenews/data/upimages/email.jpg

Why do they get a a real reply and I just get a form? Unless they are getting so many messages that they just decided to say screw it. XD

 

[Tetsujin]

You should know that gametrailers.com is actually owned by MTV Networks.

Also, that was just a form as well. I got the exact same answer.

 

[Isabella]

Well that puts a new spin on things. Still, if SE says there are no plans then there are no plans. It makes for an entertaining mystery, though.

SE has come down hard in the past on people who use their footage, haven't they? Not sure why they're dragging their feet now.

 

[Tennyo]

Dammit I don't like being 100% right... :/

I'm so confused...

I wish SE would make an official announcement about it already.

 

[Strangelove]

Media Magik are a post-production company (lately they did The Spirit and Confessions of a Shopaholic, apparently), so normally they would deal with music. That trailer seems to credit them for post-production on ACC too. Though I don't see what they could be doing on the film. Square should be doing the editing for the film and soundtrack (which is being done by Square so there's no need for them to make it), there's no need to add special visual effects since the film is all CGI.

Are Viacom and Sony related? Sony did handle AC's distribution, so if they have some connection that might have something to do with it.


Those Japanese trailers made me want to get ACC. But if I'd have been watching TV and saw this, I doubt I'd be rushing out to get it Cheap old-time-film effect is very cheap, crappy misleading narration is crappy and misleading.

 

[Tetsujin]

Media MagiK apparently made this trailer. They didn't work on ACC though.

 

[Strangelove]

Bit egotistical for them and Larry Webster to shove their names in the credits right next to the makers of the film, then
