Some bored people from Squeenix used the leftover Spirit' s Within models to make a MJ Thriller parody

And wouldn' t you know it! It' s at least TWO TIMES better than the actual movie!

Wow! So those characters can actually display some personality after all!

Dear me! Didn' t that come wih the special edition of Spirits Within???

That clip is tres wrinkley...

Stil funny though.

I loved Spirit' s Within. Though I did love this Thriller video they made.

" Spirits Within" was an excellent movie if you weren' t expecting Final Fantasy. Which, really isn' t fair given the title, but I liked it.

Far enough, but then, yeah, they should have just called it ' Spirit' s Within' =/ All things considered, those character models aren' t as creepy NOW, considering what we see in the Mass Effect videos and GoW...

I always referred to the movie as Battlefield Earth 2

..Sprits Within was pretty revolutionary in being the first proper all CG feature film (disregarding kiddie movies like Toy Story ofc) and without it, i doubt Advent Children would of ever seen the light of day....

...technologically, it' s still VERY impressive visually... ...especially the opening sequence... ...you might wanna rent the DVD if you don' t own it, cause it' s about 1,000,000 times better looking than either Mass Effect or Gears of War...

...too bad the story was disappointing... ...but i guess that' s what you get when the bulk of the material was a sub videogame cast off (Sakaguchi over rated? ..surely not)

...despite all that i also think Sprits Within is a decent move, i just wish they hada got in a real director like a Mamoru Oshi...

Japanese post-apocalyptic/apocalyptic science fiction rarely makes sense once translated. Thank the guys who piloted the Enola Gay and Necessary Evil for that.

ORIGINAL: Bishonen

I second that. Ghost in the Shell is one of my favorite anime movies. Still haven' t seen Innocence yet!

I liked Spirits Within. Yeah, it had a lot of wasted potential, but it was visually stunning.

Oh. And the main character should' ve been voiced by Ben Affleck. It looked just like him, anyway!

Spirits within was a coo concept and at that tie animation was never as good as that for human characters. Looking forward to this " thriller"

I had never seen this before, Byakko. Thank you.

...shame on you, Innocence is actually better than the original...

...you know, i always thought that the cast should of been unknowns (apart from Ming-Na) ...half the Hollywood voices don' t really seem to work... ...apart from Donald Sutherland maybe...

Umm... I think grown-ups prefer movies like Toy Story before Spirits Within so calling it a kiddie movie is kinda weird.
Spirits Within was a decent sci-fi action movie, aimed at teenage kids. The greatest thing with it was that it was CGI. Otherwise, as a movie, it was mediocre.
Toy Story contains some really fantastic character designs and the humour is great in multiple levels. Everyone, from kids to adults can enjoy the movie.

It seems I never stop getting surprised by how many people concider products to be " kiddie" just because it has a cute surface or lack violence.

Not a Final Fantasy fan at all but I really liked/loved Advent Children and hated almost everything about Spirits Within..

I second that! I' d laugh at the person who believes the Fantastic Four movie was better than The Incredibles; in terms of storytelling, writing, and visual style, the animated movie is hands-down the winner, and it got its own nomination. Edna Mode pretty much pwns the FF movie all by herself.

Plus, you' d think GAMERS would know better than anyone that just because something chooses a ' kiddie' visual style means it' s meant for kids. Invader Zim had a cult following bigger and beyond its 10-12 demographic, and who can forgot Psychonauts!

Oh, and about the visuals of the movie. They' re still stunning now, but something about the overall art direction and presentation now seems ' dated' compared to GoW or the Advent Children movie. I didn' t mean in terms of polygons or lighting techniques...the whole movie just didn' t ' gel' visually even though the individual parts looked fantastic.

Anyone watch the 3D animated segment in the Animatrix compilation? They reused some of the character models and stuff for it. Personally, I thought it was more impressive than the movie in that short alone...

I think Advent Children' s animation was clearly superior over the animation of the Spirits Within, don' t know if that' s what you mean.. In terms of individual frames, Spirits Within looks stunning no doubt, but it kinda falls apart when in motion..
