Magic and media are much easier to explain than half the shit that happens in that there book.
 
Not at the moment you see it, you can only guess how the trick works or what the truth behind it is. And I suppose you believe more in your guess as what your eyes do told you. I only want to say that the way 'I only trust in what I see' is the same dangerous way as 'I only trust in what I believe'.
A healthy mixture of both is necessary.

We can explain the universe with math, but we can't explain the soul with it, for this we need philosophy. By the way this is an elemental question for the future: Where does living begin?
For your eyes a computer is a thing, but in future when you talk with him or when he makes his own decisions, would you still call it a thing or would you believe he is more?
It impossible to live without to believe in something, which needs your imaginary to let it exist and maybe that's why a computer can't live.

So a joke at the end because I didn't know if computer is either masculine, feminine or neuter.

A computer is masculine. Because that's how it is in French. And because someone said it in a book, so it must be true!

Some Black Mages tracks I uploaded years ago, basically its a band Uematsu formed which does remixes of classic FF tracks, including OWA from Advent Children. If you haven't heard them before here's a few of my favorites:

Dancing Mad from FFVI, their best one IMO:

Assault of the Silver Dragons (awesome throughout):

FF7 Opening Bombing Mission:

You can check out all 3 CDs they released too via my playlists:

Hope y'all like :)
 
Well, the Advent Children music was played by the Black Mages (although not alone), not remade. The Skies Above is their best IMO.

Sorry, that's what I meant, they did the AC OWA track. Who else performed with them? Any members from Earthbound Papas?
 
It’s crazy that Quentin Tarantino still watches VHS!

Nice! It's all middle east what's left to blame in the end I guess... while the real extremists are appearing as peacemakers and politically correct in front of the eyes of the people!

If that title doesn't tell you what kind of shoddy piece of strawberries this is likely to be, nothing will. HAHAHA!

I dunno about that. I mean, yeah, the title is crap, but I'd not be surprised if it was chosen by marketing goons. But the screenplay itself is being by Abrams (who is very hit or miss, and not really a reliable indicator of good or bad) and LAWRENCE FREAKIN' KASDSAN, who was the driving creative force behind The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Kasdan's involvement can only lead to a good movie.
 
I am less optimistic. I don't think it's likely that you can make a self-contained story carry on without immense skill.  I see this being more of the same - action sequences at the expense of narrative.  I will be happy to come back here and eat humble pie if wrong.

I completely agree with this, but allow me to point out that Star Wars was original conceived as a self-contained story in the first place (in spite of what Lucas may have claimed later), modeled point-for-point after Joseph Campbell's Monomyth. And you know who successfully carried it on? Lawrence Kasdan. See, re-opening a closed story is specifically a skill he has experience with.

But among other things, I get the distinct impression this isn't even meant as a continuation so much as a completely new story set in the same universe, with some common characters. If this is indeed the case, it'll be much harder to mess it up.

At any rate, there's no way in hell it'll be as bad as the prequel trilogy, because Lucas isn't being allowed anywhere near this.
