"Christmas, 1985, I'll never forget those memories. I was still a teenager then, and I had all the self importance that comes with it. And as my friends and I walked through the cold, snowy city streets, one of them stopped us all to look at something. The local cinema had a couple of new movies out. Goonies. Back to the Future. Commando. They all looked cool, but kind of corny. And... huh? 'Final Fantasy VII'? I was confused by that weird title. Looked like another one of those crappy sci-fi movies. Wait? 18 rated?! There was no way. That fantasy stuff is for kids and losers!! How could laser beams and fairies and robots be for adults? But then I looked closer and it looked so cool...so different... Motorcycles. Cute girls. Dudes with guns on their arms and giant knives on their backs. And that guy with the white hair, what was his deal. We had to see it. We had to!! And there was only one way it was going to happen.
We had to convince my older brother to take us. He was the family golden child. White collar worker. Real mild mannered. And to top it all off he was a huge poindexter, a sci-fi nerd. Damn I miss him. I'll never forget the shock I felt when he agreed to take us there. This guy never did anything wrong, he was a people pleaser. Why did he say yes? He must have known about it already from those weird conventions he'd go to, I didnt really talk to him much because we didnt have much in common, so I was just confused. He just seemed... happy and eager that I was interested. And he even agreed to not tell mom. I think after that was the day, we really started to hang out more...
He took my friends and I there for the 10pm screening. We were excited as hell, like little kids. And we were still kids, even though we wanted to believe so damn bad we weren't. If only we'd known how good we had it back then... And as we started crunching on the candies and snacks we'd snuck in through our oversized coats, the movie started.
I'll never forget how that entire cinema was bathed in this neo green mist as the narrator started talking about "mako reactors" and the planet. It was like nothing I'd ever known... i couldnt describe it. The best I could come up with was a blend between bladerunner, a david lynch film, that 1984 apple advert and a horror movie, all coming together to make something next level. The special effects of Midgar, Nibelheim and Wutai made our jaws drop and blew our minds. That dark synth soundtrack was top notch. The anti-corporation message and hopeless atmosphere just spoke to my wannabe, rebellious teenage self. The entire Wall market scene, especially Cloud's actor rocking a dress and still looking so damn cool, was absolutely unheard of in the era of Schwarzenegger and Stallone, really ahead of its time and had us laughing out loud. The way the movie just transfomed into a blood bath during the nibelheim scene was chilling. And when I saw Aerith die in the last scene and the "to be continued" flash on screen as it faded to black, I didnt know whether to cry or get angry. A movie had never moved me like that before. It looked so real, the blood, the sword, the life evaporating from her eyes. Its no wonder the scene, the movie and the actor all got an oscar just for that. Too bad she just disappeared from acting afterwards... all that drama between Zack and Cloud's actor unfortunately. I knew I'd seen something special that day though - and when the guys who directed Predator, Batman '89 and Full Metal Jacket all point to this film as inspiration, you know its real. The wait for those second and third movies was unbearable. You couldnt go two miles without someone quoting Barret's pizza line for a whole year. It was a true blockbuster and I'll never forget it. No one thought anything would be bigger than Star Wars, and this proved them wrong. It was a romance flick, a slasher film, a mystery movie, a cyberpunk piece, a kung fu classic, a comedy and a psychological horror all rolled into one and it somehow worked. How? I dont know. But it changed cinema forever....it changed me forever.
Thanks, bro. I'll never forget that experience you gave me. I'll watch that remake for the both of us."
Everyone must read this. Thank you for sharing your otherdimensional memories with us
@@GianlucaMurru It was a pleasure! Absolutely loved this video!
@@GianlucaMurru this was reallly cool video dude. i think when single people can make whole movies, we will finally start to see some amazing entertainment again
This essay was created by an AI
Holy crap this was good. Congrats man!
This is a weird mix of Labyrinth, Blade Runner and original Dune and I love it.
and Mad Max
@@lakecityransom and FF7. Cmon guys get it together
And the highlander
There can be only 1 Final Fantasy…..🤓
Masters of the Universe.. it's pulled from literally all of them. its wild
I love that the chocobos look like practical effects. This is too good!
“AI-generated practical effects” is something I am very ready for.
This is just insane. It's also kind of creepy that we've reached the point where AI can generate these stills.
I bet soon AI will be able to combine these stills into full length movies... and the only way you will be able to tell it isn't live action is the fact that everybody will have 12 fingers

@@MrReubenTishkoff humans already have 32 so 40 ain't too bad
Stills?

Perfection!, and thankyou for giving Vincent some love. He has been sadly neglected.
final fantasy 7 meets David Lynch dune, I never knew I wanted this!
“We”!…. “We” never knew we wanted this!😂
I saw Sting in Cloud !
@@benoitodille5617 Yep. FFVII + Dune+ a good pinch of Labyrinth
@@leeharveyoslik and Neverending Story, honestly this REALLY nails the aesthethic we used in the 80's for these movies
So true 👆
This was mind blowing! This look would have been a lot more magical than what they went with. This gave me heavy nostalgic vibes that was at the same time fresh like seeing and feeling it for the first time like I was a kid again!
Michael Bolton as Sephiroth was definitely a genius move by Cameron.
Ahahah genius 😂
HOW CAN WE BE LOVERS IF WE CAN'T BE FRIENDS
A beautiful man is required to play me. We wouldn't want the audience to get the wrong idea would we?
@@captainkaiii THIS IS THE TALE OF CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW
@@onewingedangelsephiroth1561 I always pictured Henry Cavill in the role.
I can’t stop watching this…. this is hauntingly beautiful on so many levels
This gives off the feelings I had for the game when I was like 5.
Imagine how much harder Tifa would hit with two extra fingers!
This is the most satisfying, perfect depiction or 1) what 80's fantasy/sci-fi movies stand for, and 2) how FF7 would look like as a movie in the hands of a master (Lynch, Gillian, Scott). To echo the sentiment of many comments, this is a better version of what I was dreaming about whenever I'm remembering my awesome time in the 80's. Thank you Sir.
This banged. It's a really nice feeling, tracing these images back to childhood nostalgia and then seeing them reframed and produced in such a way that they feel like reality.
Generate images of what a Final Fantasy VII movie shot in the 80s might look like.
AI: Sure thing! No problem! I'll blow your mind!
And make sure the hands of the human characters have 5 fingers.
AI: ...numbers are just an arbitrary concept, right?
lol, so true
Joke's on us, computers start counting on 0, telling it to do 5 fingers is giving it permision to do 6!
@@jaimemarrero3982 wanna hear something funny? Recently some people have discovered that if you ask Midjourney to draw a hand with 6 fingers, it will often generate a reasonably well-drawn hand with 5 fingers. I think AI is kinda trolling us
When Nobuo Uematsu composed the origenal soundtrack, he used all of his 12 fingers playing the piano, too!
I'm seeing this a lot. People with 6 fingers is a thing in our world. Also "webbed" hands and toes. I have about a 1/2 inch web between fingers but mine are practically invisible.
I have never been inclined to leave a RUclips comment. This is a work of art. It’s my new favorite anything.
Thank you, so much
Man the finger thing being the give away that it's AI art is kind of a creepy phenomenon with foreboding existential connotations. Imagine if we woke up tomorrow and Mandela effectively had six plus phalanges and only kind of remembered having five.
Wanna know something wild?
It’s a common LSD trope that while tripping hands are weird.
Like… it’s hard to explain. But you can almost see them the way AI seems to see hands.
@@jackroyaltea5034 that's wild. What a strange correlation.
You have no idea how badly I want this to exist.
The honeybee dance sequence was the best part of the movie ngl
5:16 I'm in love with Tifa's dolphin limit break, seriously.
Ya that's what I'm looking at
Tifa's "Dolphin Blow"?
It looks hilariously awesome but those shots of Wall Market and Gold Saucer are STUNNING.
Words can’t express how much i want to watch some of these movies haha
The Chrono Trigger one was so good too
Chrono Trigger?
Please give a link
Yeah bump... link pls
I want a link too!
@@lonelytaru ruclips.net/video/o3EZpn7K8SU/видео.html
A.I. imagery may still screw up with hands, fingers, and toes, but this is still way freaking awesome
If I had the resources I would make this movie happen.
Marlene must have got some Mako poisoning cause she's got six fingers!
Did you see Tifa's hand in the image before? 😅
@@GianlucaMurru no, but the one with Cait Sith was hilarious. He's got like, two thumbs and 5 or 6 fingers. Awesome.
::edit:: okay, I went back and looked at Tifa's hand. Wow. It's amazing how detailed and realistic faces look, but this AI just can't figure out the hands.
tifa has like 8 haha
Cloud has like 10 when he's holding materia in Wutai
MIDJOURNEY
No lie, I would 100% watch this. That would be amazing.
As a real FFVII fan in can only say....
I want this!!!!!
I've seen other 'as an 80s' movie videos but this one really looks like a movie from the 80s, Cloud looks 80s as it can be.
I just keep coming back to this because of how incredibly awesome it is, both visuals and music.
That dolphin is sure...a dolphin
This gives me power ranger movie vibes with a bit of Ghostbusters. I wasn't born in the 90 but I did love the style and art direction
This was SOOO AMAZING. I friggin' LOVED this.
HOLY GUACAMOLE I'M IN LOVE WITH MY FAVOURITE GAME AGAIN 😍 - Really, you're the best. Thanks for making and sharing!
I really think the Remake could've benefitted from a healthy dose of a totally fresh interpretation, which is what this is. The high drama, the gritty fantasy darkness, steampunkish aesthetics heck even the hairstyles work surprisingly well here!
I just know that I need a full version
The remake was generic and sterile
Agreed. You can also 100% tell no one is going to die.
They're making it more child friendly and safe than the original story. They couldn't even add a trail of blood leading to Jenova. Completely backwards remake removing anything actually badass or having stakes and worries for the characters.
Seeing this video makes me more upset about the "remake".
Looking forward to seeing the next part! Almost every image was instantly recognizable! Loved how badass bugenhagen looked
THIS VERSION OF CLOUD IN A DRESS OH MY GOD I LOVE IT
AI art is controversial but you cant deny this is truly an artform. This is like FF7 in Star wars style
a must watch movie if it was ever made in this style
All these 80s AI film renders complete me in a way I didn't know I needed.
1985 Vincent played by Bruce Campbell, huh?
Groovy...
Lol, that's true.
Also Cloud looks like Dolph Lundgren
This is one of the craziest things I have ever seen
I was so engrossed in my childhood movie that I didn't notice the finger thing everyone else was talking about. Like seriously, some of these shots are exactly how I saw it in my brain
It hurts to know this film could exist and does not.
Maybe is just a matter of time, we aren't so far away from totally AI generated films.
I was smoking and watching a bunch of these AI generated pictures and wonder if maybe the AI is pulling these from an alternate dimension where its actually real.
I gotta stop smoking so much 😂
Can't wait for Disk 2! This is truly amazing 80's aesthetic for FF7!
I think in 10 years time if not sooner we will be able to create movies with AI or recreate our dreams, it's gonna be insane.
Omg Sephiroth looks freaking Badass. Love the 1st Chocobo too
These are absolutely spot on
Man this was such a great experience. I‘m fkn mindblown right now. Great job!!!
Just got done watching... yo...this is gold. This is instant classic. Dude. Great job man! To all the actors in these...bravo!
This vision of Gaia is incredibly rich. It really nails the poverty and desolate the world was outside of developed ShinRa urban centers. Good prompting the AI.
Given that FF7 came out in 1997, a movie based on it that was shot in 1985 would've been a really impressive bit of prophecy! 😉
Its funny how the AI got the importance of Cloud's hair but let the sword go. Lol
Rufus is the only character that looks like he could wear the same thing forever. Tifa would still be the the girl next door and Shiva still looks good. I'm suprised Barret doesn't look more like Mr. T. The disco ball at the Honey B. Inn was perfect. For some reason I feel like I'm looking at Legend of Dragoon when it comes to Sephiroth and Cloud.
saddest part is, in 100 years, no one will catch this vibe anymore
That Tifa next to the sand dolphin sure makes herself some rump roast, ay?
FF7 is just a forever thing now. It will live on forever. This needs to be real.
"give me a scorpion tank". "give me a seashell house"
This was magnificent
It looks like the kind of movie that was heavily criticized during its release but slowly gathered a cult following as time passes.
Brings tears to my eyes. Well done. Let’s get some 80’s Xenogears in the thread!!!
Those special effects are crazy for year 1985.
This is way cooler then the original version. Wow
Thank you so much for non include the " REAL " end of disk 1 , i cant bear it
I like the idea that this movie existed first and FF7 was a game adaptation of it
Damn, screaming Barrett is accurate for how he came across in game. Just perfect.
I remember, every time I got to the video store the tag to rent this was missing off the hook. Never did get to rent it.
1985 Tifa is flatter than a glass of Sprite left out in the sun for a month.
This movie needs to be made now. I need to watch this. Someone call Paramount. Awesome vid man!
never seen something that was so dope and disturbing at the same time lmao.
This was an incredible treat. Spectacular.
That was nuts! I've never wanted to see a movie so bad!
tifa looks weird as hell
This movie is real from an alternate timeline
These are some badass images so cool.
almost frightening but amazing how this could be real alternate dimension versions of FFVII
I want to see this become a reality some how. Wow. First of it, it really kinda points out how weird FF7 really is. But that aesthetic is just so awesome!
This looks like something that they would have let us watch on the last day of school in 1992.
Holy moly that was an awesome re-imagining! Pleeease disk 2. Subbed
Ngl. Would have watched this if it were made. This is awesome. Thanks for sharing this.
Holy hell, that was a goddamn rollercoaster of emotions. Cloud with a mullet is best cloud now.
Edit: 1:32 that is the best aeris (aerith) I ever seen by 1985 standards. AI Is scary man.
It's funny and creepy.. FF7, especially remake is a game that is all about memories, altered memories and fake memories.. And this AI art of the game creates fake memories in my brain.
I'm now convinced that FF7 was based on a screenplay from the 80s.
I love how giant the train is.
Hojo, the Buggy, and Vincent are just perfect. Yuffie was close, but that last image of the forgotten city makes me dream of the possibility of a live action
Dude. Amazing job. Lets go Disk 2!
Funny I can tell who each character is by just looking at them.
Cloud's hair looks better in this than in advent children. I want to see this movie almost as much as Grouch SNL Joker parody.
i know that this is insane on so many levels but there is one thing that A.I can't get it right almost everytime is the fingers and human teeth
Loved every second if this. Please make more
these ai designed reels are like if the backrooms accessed your childhood. I'm terrified
WHERE IS DISK 2??? WHERRE EISSSS DISSSKK TWO!!!!???
this is a beauty
That child had six fingers on one hand.
Marlene has 6 fingers. You cannot unsee it now.
4:47 "Hold on to your drawers and don't piss in 'em"
The Music in the second half slaps super hard! Also very cool Images.
How beautiful, I'll look for the movie, thank you very much for making this video 😍😍😍
I would love reading your prompts for all of these. xD;;
This was really cool! Well done.
This looks so awesome! It's like a mash-up of He-Man/MotU (Cloud and Sephiroth), Blade Runner (Midgar), TMNT (esp. Red XIII), Starship Troopers (the helmets of the Shinra Soldiers), David Lynch's Dune (desert images and Gold Saucer), Double Dragon (the appearences of Tifa, Aerith and Yuffie) and many more 80's/90's movies. I love it. Can someone please go back in time and produce this?
This is the best usage of AI
Well done! But a lot of content was skipped, including the slums, a lot of the Shinra building, Kalm, the Midgar Zolom, the Mithril mines, Fort Condor, Junon, the boat trip, Jenova, Costa del Sol, Mt. Corel, North Corel, and Gongaga, at least.
This would have been an expensive movie with all those sets and locations! Makes me appreciate the game even more. Again, well done!
I'm convinced this needs to become a reality.
this thumbnail is RUclips Gold!!!
Awesome! I was enchanted to recognize each part of the game!
