Is ACC Blu-Ray exclusive, or is there a DVD version also? Not a huge issue to me, since I have a PS3, but it'd suck if people who don't have blu-ray players couldn't watch this cut.

From what i've seen and heard, it's only coming out on Blue-ray.

However.. I've also heard and seen that if people download a torrent or something, you can convert/watch it on a video player. Possibly burn it onto a DVD-Disc if you want (if conversion is possible)
 
From what I hear, it has a totally different story and a totally ending that is far inferior to that of the original Advent Children. Is this true?
 
No the story isn't totally different. It's Like the directors cut of AC. All the missing story pieces have been put back. The ending is pretty much the same just allot better. It is a great movie that makes watching the original kinda pointless.
 
There's a bunch of short scenes (1-2 min) added, most of them about Denzel and Marlene. The last fight scene has a bunch of new shots, and ends completely differently, but the movie itself ends mostly the same after that fight.
 
Whoa! It was all untrue!

Sometimes I can't believe how some people are capable of lying. You see, I was told a convincing story that the fight between Cloud and Sephiroth is totally different and ends differently; and that Cloud is killed but Aerith revives him in her church and then phones(!) everyone to come and see her power! I'm told that 30 minutes footage is added!
 
30 minutes is about right.  And if I'm not mistaken, they also took the time to add english lip sync'ing to the new clips as well.
 
I hope they also fixed the captioning for the undubbed version. Cait Sith basically speaks gibberish in the original captions.
 
Fleetcommand I don't think you were lied to that sounds kinda right. They added some to the end of Cloud and Sephs fight, but it isn't totally changed. Cloud still dies exactly like before. Then they add a scene of people getting a phone call to go to the church. Cloud is revived as before and the movie ends.
 
(Hurrah! I can once again access this forum!)

What? Have we actually seen the same AC? In the AC that I watched, (Japanese, DVD, Region 2), Cloud didn't die at all.

He dies when Yazoo and Loz create that explosion after he fought Sephiroth.  Aerith doesn't allow him to enter the lifestream, so he is reborn.  Also, I think Great Gospel revives downed allies
 
Bear thanks for spelling that out, for some reason I just didn't want to.
 
Yes, I guess that's enough spoiling movies. ACC is surely an unsettling movie, in comparison to AC.

Anyways, good luck extracting clips. I think the 30 minutes additional footage should have some usable frames.

And by the way, what is the format of ACC movie on Blu-Ray? MPEG-4 or VC-1?

Hey Grimmy, I've been away on vacation and wondering, how are things going with the cutscenes?
 
Hellbringer: Honestly I got bored of Editing vids. I will probably do some ACC scenes, however not right now. I'm much more interested in models atm. Plus I'm trying to help out on the BC translation project.
 
Ah alright, well no worries, we have all the HQ vids to work with for now.  :-D
 
So, I understand you edit videos, grimmy307, don't you?

Please tell me: Is it possible to do something like adding a lightening-shaped tattoo on Cloud's forehead in videos or paint a logo or insignia on Highwind in FMVs? If yes, which programs can be used to do this? Any advice would be appreciated.

Just out of interest, WHY do you want to do this?
 
I use flash mx so doing that kind of addition would be possible but extremely difficult(even with flash cs4). Also matching the original lighting would be close to impossible. I'm sure there is software available to do those additions easily but I have no idea what they would be. I would expect that with adobe CS4(the full suite) you'd be able to do it fairly easily.

Flash? :-o You mean the same program which creates Shockwave / Flash (.SWF/.FLA) contents? Wow! I'm intrigued! Actually, I expected anything (even Photoshop CS3 Extended) but not Flash.

Thanks for the comment. Yes, I guess Adobe CS4 pack can do it easily but I also expect that it'll cost a few million dollars or so.

I'm inspired by three things: Curiosity, curiosity and it-which-must-not-be-named that killed the cat. But if you don't believe me, you can safely presume that I'm trying to replace Cloud with Harry Potter and I'd like to replace Shin-ra insignia on Highwind with that of Lord Voldemort!!!
