What if it had been live action?

[Masamune]

Wouldn't Johnny Depp be an obvious choice for Vincent?

I'm not sure if I'll like the compilation the way I do now if it were live action. That being said I just have no actors in my mind that I see fit to play the characters :/

[quote author=Cthulhu link=topic=653.msg30023#msg30023 date=1236981209]In a real movie, they'd get rid of pretty much all major characters except maybe 4 or 5, so they could still fit in some character development / origins (which was pretty much absent in AC, mind - everyone minus Cloud and Tifa and the bad guys got little to no introduction whatsoever) and have time left for a movie, but even that would be pushing it.[/quote]

What if it spanned more than one movie? Like say two or three? Then I bet a lot more would fit.

Yeah, they'd be able to introduce more characters in the second / third movie. Vincent, for example, would be fine if he was introduced in the second movie (since that's pretty much how it goes in the game). Same for Yuffie, Cid, (asdf) Cait Sith, and maybe Red, although I can't remember for the life of me where he's first introduced.

 

[Tennyo]

Red XII was found by Cloud, Tifa, and Barret in Hojo's lab when they were rescuing Aerith, so he'd come into play early on.

 

[Cthulhu]

Yeah, he would. Still though, his intro could be done relatively fast (since not much is known about him early on, he just 'tags along' and does the smartass comments from time to time.

I really don't see Johnny Depp being able to play someone who's really depressed. Depp plays more accentric characters. I could see him playing some sort of villain.

PS I kep Tennyo in mind while writing this.

 

[Max Payne]

The man has more range than that.

He played a depressed, disturbed individual quite well in "The Secret Window".

 

[looneymoon]

Depp is as good a choice as Boreanaz imo :-\

and screw the Buffy hate, Buffy is a badass muthafucka

Oh I agree, I was just commenting on the man's acting skills.

Hhahahahhahahahahha.

The show should have been named Buffy: Vampire fucker.

Friends was a crappy show.

 

[looneymoon]

Agreed, but video is still relevant

 

[Max Payne]

Not it's not. Shutup you

I agreed with someone who thought Jonathan Rhys-Meyers would be a good Kadaj.

He plays violent and crazy well enough; as well, he has the looks, except for the hair.

Criss Angel perhaps for Vincent? Though I think the guy's a total man-whore...

Honestly I'm baffled why people even bother if they aren't gonna put any effort into it, they just look stupid and get laughed at by people on the net :-\

Also is that poor excuse for Sephiroth just holding a bent pole?

As for a live action FF7...

No. Just No.
[/quote]

I just came across this...!!! ;D ;D ;D I'm crackin' up over here!

What the hell is with the hair on Aerith?! Sephiroth?!? Cloud?!?! A duck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

You just ruined my life... Oh! I slapped my own hand 'cause I felt so bad laughing...

But come on - I agree! If you're not even going to give it a serious try... I wonder if they really did; or, did they mean this to be a mock up?

I think the girl playing Tifa and the guy playing Barret look decent. Not perfect; Tifa's not so large framed or dark skinned.

 

[namakemono]

Holy...How do you unsee that picture?!

@Live FF : I don't think anyone can pull it off. FF characters are too hot to be real.

That guy is spray painted black, just like old movies

Hot, but no.

Shouldn't have used toilet paper for the bandages.

Ahaha, exactly what I was thinking. xD

Charmin Ultra is sexcellent though.

Agreed. Nearly everything else looked great except for that detail; the sword looked off a bit too.

 

[Masamune]

Cloud #1's face looks Photoshopped, for some reason. Aaand I'm guessing Cloud #2 is a girl? All of the semi-acceptable Cloud cosplays I've seen are girlies.

^ Please do not consider this an endorsement of cosplay.

 

[Makoeyes987]

You don't like cosplaying, Masamune?

 

[Masamune]

To be curt: I think it's childish and makes a mockery of the fanbase. But to each their own.

 

[Makoeyes987]

Stick in the mud

Although to be honest, its not something I'd ever do. So I kinda see what you mean.

Seconded. I experience some wicked secondhand embarrassment every time I see cosplay pics. And that just pisses me off.
