FFVII: AC English release

Jazz · Posted: Fri Apr 21, 2006 3:44 pm Post subject: FFVII: AC English release

The previous topic for this is about 6 months old, so new one it is! Anyway, this sucker is coming out this Tuesday, so wondering who's planning on picking up a copy.

Has anyone heard the English voices? There are few clips you can find on YouTube if you really want.

Actually, my store already receieved the DVDs, but it's street-dated for Tuesday, so we can't sell it yet. But that didn't stop my bud and I from having a little private screening in the store last night after we closed. :D

I'm very pleased with the English dub, both the overall translation and the voices. I've always liked Steve Burton as Cloud from the Kingdom Hearts games, and he doesn't disappoint here. Rachel Leigh Cook is spot-on for Tifa. I was not a fan of Mena Suvari's Aerith in KH2, but she does a very good job here. And Sephiroth rocks all.

The only questionable voice I found is Cait Sith...who is Scottish for some reason. Oh well, no one likes him anyway.

And I have to give praise to Steve Blum (as always) as Vincent and Quinton Flynn as Reno. Man, first he does Axel, now Reno - he's racking up the points!

Ah, I'm glad that Axel's VA will be playing Reno. I almost didn't wanna see the dub, just because I thought the original was so darn good. They totally messed up Sephiroth's voice in the dub, which makes me sad. ;-;
Oh, yes, and MENA SUVARI SUCKS.

The store where I live has it in stock also but its £20 so I'm waiting till Monday when I can buy it in ASDA for £9.

The voices are pretty good, whats wrong with a Scottish voice for Cait Sith any way? I haven't heard Sephiroth yet so I'll judge that on Monday.

The movie looks great, the CG is perfect.

Considering KH2 isn't out here that video ws pretty handy. I like his voice.

I'm skint so me and my brother are going to rent the film out before we buy it. Is it worth buying or renting though?

Well, being the uber fan of Sephiroth that I am, I thought he'd have a different voice. Something along the lines of Orochimaru, or Itatchi from the Naruto dub. It's just...not a deep enough voice. At least for my tastes.
The few battle crys that the KH1 Sephiroth had sounded better than KH2 Sephirtoh, to me.

Ill agree with Jazz, the Dubbed version rocked and was practically almost dead on with the original script in Japan, just with tweaks to fit our culture in the states. Good job Sony Smile

I got my copy of it from my walmart & it came with FF The spirits within. I tell you, I cant wait for the FF7 game that they are making, I kinda hope that they remake FF7 since I havent played it really & I just cant get back into PSOne games. This movie was insane, I loved it

Good Film. The second half of the film was dissapointing. The fight scenes could have been better. But none the less it was a great film.

Was it me or was some of the BG Music louder than the speech?

CFZero a friend informed me that they might remake FF7 for PS3. But I doubt it.

I was talking about the English Dub. Like when Kadaj made the Children drink from the LifeStream and when Marlene talks about the LifeStream you could barely hear it over the BG Music.

The fight scenes were good. They could have been better though.
