Square Enix has announced that it will screen a special preview edition of Final Fantasy VII Advent Children at the 61st Venice International Film Festival, held from September 1-11 in Venice, Italy. The 70-minute movie will be released on DVD, revisiting Midgar two years after the conclusion of the video game. In addition to the old characters including Vincent Valentine, Tifa, Cloud, Sid, and Tarks, new characters will be introduced, as well as a new "menace" causing the spread of a mysterious illness.

"We are honored to be a part of Venezia Digitale, this exciting new category that highlights the values of innovation and artistry of digital imagery," said director Tetsuya Nomura. "As we continually strive to create digital entertainment that pushes the boundaries of technology and art, we welcome the opportunity to become a part of the world cinema community through the Venice International Film Festival." The movie will be shown as part of "Venezia Digitale," the new digital image category of the Venice International Film Festival. Since the movie is still in development, it will only be a preview of the actual movie.

Is this illness by any chance AIDS?

Horny Bastards

That really sucks. And Venice of all places!! Doesn't this kind of stuff get to Europe at a later date if at all?? Soon, FFXIII will be sent to Europe first!! DAMN IT ALL TO HELL!!! What happened to the intrest in the US?? We are Japan's biggest buyers! And this is the thanks we get? Don't we have some kind of gold card for Japan? We're their respected customers while Europe is last on the list! WHY!?!?! We are usually the people who eat this stuff up! Hell, we made Spirits Within a smash hit and it sucked!! We're usually the general opinion because we are the most gullible and retarded nation on the planet. We will let something even as horrible as Gigli try to rear it's ugly head upon DVD.

Lucky bastard. Be lucky you live at least within a 500 mile radius of Venice...

500 miles! hell no... I like about 300 miles from London... Venice I bet is pushing 1000 miles.

qwerty: calm down though... It's not like they are showing the full movie.

They're probally showing it at Venice because there are no major film festivals before that here in the U.S. When a big one pops up, Im sure they'll show it.
