almighty_frog: (SHIELD THE BRAIN!)
I'm trying to figure out how to customise the layout of this thing without either tedious hexadecimal code amendments or saying "screw it" and nabbing a free layout meant for lj. Eh, I'll try again in the morning.

ANYWAY. In other news, I have now seen Advent Children: Complete. You know, that remake of Advent Children, since someone in Squenix actually noticed that its plot made no sense. (Although I guess that's giving them a lot of credit - personally, I'd subscribe to the theory that they decided it wasn't pretty enough for Blu-Ray, and since Nomura had thought up some more fight scenes/gratuitous shots of Tifa's boobs they decided to give it a shot.)

However. Despite my well-honed cynicism, Advent Children Complete actually manages to make things make sense. It even explains what the fuck the geostigma was about and how it was connected to Sephiroth, instead of expecting you to psychically know!

Plus they worked out how to make people bloody and dirty, which makes me happy because Cloud actually looks injured when he is injured! Although his top still suffers from the magical ability to mend itself. His fight with Sephiroth is also much less of an anti-climax because they extended it and made it look more like, I dunno, Sephiroth is actually difficult to beat.

And there's more ZACK. Having now played Crisis Core, I heartily approve of this. Zack is AWESOME. Screw resurrecting Aeris, I wanna ressurect Zack. And then set Yuffie on him, because I'm one of those freaks who actually like her.

Will ramble more later.
