Now those are very good news.

I've read too that bonus features will be in the DVD version? Sweet, it will be very entertaining seeing the making of =)

Does anyone know if the original Japanese audio will still be there? I can totally see me dispising the American soundtrack...

Tifa: Gee Whizz Cloud! Look out!

yay! good news!...The voice actor of cloud is the same person from Kingdome hearts!(happy happy joy joy...XP) Anywho...i was wondering when the canadian release date was anywhere to be found?(because i have heard no word of it over here...and is making this fan really sad.) So if any info please tell me.

You guys this site, the immense energy I feel it attracts is both great and powerful. These pictures portray my memories, just as Sora, and Sephiroth; a past that lives, for it is never forgotten as it lives in the darkness of my heart.
Sora and I happen to be the same age, with the same senarios in our lives.

Hey Flame,

If you follow this link to Amazon you will find that Japanese is one of the listed soundtracks. I had to check cuz I see myself hating the American one aswell.

WTF man that better not be true i cant stand soras voice!!!! its so stupid!!

oh btw i heard that there is only going to be 77777 copies of the special edition made

Wait a minute... Sora? Who said anything about Sora?

Finally, the release of the DVD. But I am very concerned about whether the Japanese voices will stay too. I'm not a fan of dubbings, unless they can prove that they fit it well.

Now all I have to do is wait for Singapore stores to have them. >.> That makes my blood soo warm. >.>

YESSS!! *punches fist in air* i've been waiting for this for sooooooo long! the animation looks fantastic too. i just hope the story is good though it sounds good i was'nt a big fan of the game but i did like it so i hope i'll like the movie too!

kingdom hearts 2 has some little dissapointments...for example the way they talk...their like ROBOTS.....but the battle scenes was SO AWESOME!!!!! i hope they make another kingdom hearts........not like in the first KH....it sucks cause..the combo is kept on reapeting...like slash...thrust...slash.......thrust......and jump slash.........man it really sucks..........but..........nahhhhhhhh.
[size=6] right now i finished 47 RPG'S,My dream is to finish 100 or 200 RPGs....thats alll

FF VII DIRGE OF CEREBERUS
im looking forward on it............i hope no disappointments

the movie is so good. i laughed, i cried, i crapped my pants.

YES there still are the original language voice actors as well as the english!!!

i have only seen the japan import so far and it was oooohh so good.

I bought the movie last night (havn't seen it anytime before) and I really liked it. I've yet to watch the extra disk but on the movie disk, there is something called "Remeniscing FF7" and they pretty much played a bunch of cutscenes of the game (jap version) with english subtitling. This was good becuase I got to remember all the good times I had playing the game lol.

Ya the movie was good and I feel that I made a good buy.

I got the special edition too, but I only payed 19.99 for my movie

Can you belive i found someone who started a topic saying how bad the movie was? Admin locked it before i got to tear him a new one...

COULD NOT HAVE BEEN BETTER! No,it really couldn't. I mean it. I've watched it three times in less than 24hrs. And the upcoming games look damn cool.

When i got this movie i almost weeped cause i no longer had to watch it in japanese
-But then as I watched it I realized that the eng. voice actors arent as good as th JP ones......
-still the best movie though XD
