Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within is a 2001 American computer-animated science fiction film directed by Hironobu Sakaguchi, creator of the Final Fantasy series of role-playing video games. It was the first photorealistic computer-animated feature film and was the most expensive video game-inspired film until the release of Prince of Persia in 2010. It features the voices of Ming-Na Wen, Alec Baldwin, Donald Sutherland, James Woods, Ving Rhames, Peri Gilpin and Steve Buscemi.

"I don't see gender only money"
And this episode is already off to a great start.
As soon as I heard that line I checked the comments, 99% sure it'd be mentioned in one of the top three. Clearly I am greatly in tune with the flow of the internet.
animals don't have genders, they're animals
Now it's 2024, and everything is about gender.

- Dr. Cid
- Chocobo keychain easter egg
- The name
Don't forget about Diet Lifestream!

Best comment ever!😂
"She screamed! It was scary! I shoot scary!"
... Isn't that like everybody's reaction when playing a horror game.
I feel he went the wrong way with this movie.
Reminds me of the time every youtuber first played fucking FnaF and thought it was the "scariest game ever"......
Or shooting civilians.
My stepdad was watching me play Doom 3 when it came out and he asked me "Why the extra shots?" after I shot a couple of corpses. I answered, "Just making sure." He understood when he played it for himself and realized how many corpses were actually sleeping zombies.
@@JT044-iz1cv it wasn't. i mean sure the first time or 2 the jump scares were a little scary. but afterwards they got old fast. now if you want a truly scary game i suggest playing through RE7. and if you want an even scarier time with it play it in V.R. i've played it both ways. and i gotta say that the V.R version almost made me sick a few times. not that is was badly made but how immersive it makes you feel
I woke up as an 80 year old man.
WHERE IS MY YOUTH.
Then why does your pfp look like you're in your late 20s early 30s and trying to look like you're still 19?..
Man, Seth MacFarlane would be proud of that needlessly dragged out joke.

The joke may have been dragged out longer that it probably should have been yet it was still funny.
"I don't see gender. Only money."
Nostalgia Critic, circa 2019.
Best quote....this is the most fun episode to watch for quite a while

DONT GIVE THEM IDEAS! > : C
@Javelin Melody I still prefer Advent Children, personally.
Dog: "Meow"
WHERE IS THE WOOF???!!!
That was more terrible then a doggy style joke, only critic can do that since he apologizes in the end.
Wouldn’t virtual actors in a virtual world just be an animated movie?
I’m looking at you, “live-action” Lion King remake.
And it would, ironically, be more expensive for every time they have to re-render the video and other crap
Brilliant
I get it's a joke but this whole "it's not live action, it's animated" thing for Lion King is beyond annoying.
Jay Arby I can’t wait for live action finding Nemo
@rockman fan a movie you have yet to see is dogshit and its existence that doesn't affect you in anyway is annoying.... well alright.
Best annoyingly drawn out joke ever made.
I knew the punchline, but I still laughed like a madman.

"Doug you piece of shit!"
This could've been Mulan fighting Hades. But it wasn't.
Oh I get it.
Sometimes, you just get those MANLY URGES!

There’s a book about that, actually. A for real book about Mulan going to the Underworld.

WHERE'S THE FLOOF!?

More importantly he beat Family Guy for annoyingly drawn out joke.
Only a joke if you laugh. Otherwise it is a microplot self-identifying as a joke
@@fearanarchy lol well said!
Which one?
Admittedly, the annoyingly drawn out joke looped back around to being funny for me the moment he screamed "WHERE IS THE TOOTH"
I have to admit the same
- "As you know, pink is a color, salt is salty, and the writer for this is never getting hired again"
- "AS WE KNOW!"
😂😂😂
I knew the tooth joke was coming, but I was still giddy waiting for the payout.
It wasn't worth it.
"I'd like to thank God!"
I was totally expecting Monty Python's God to appear and say, "Don't rope me into this."
That would have been amazing.
well he roped me into this!
"I am not talking to a camera right now, I'm just insane" had me laughing so hard
best part of that whole bit...plus he kinda looks like Al Roker
But, technically he was talking to a camera.

Did you make an entire review just to put Jim in a tutu..........

I'm pretty sure the movie "Tooth Fairy" was created for the sole purpose of putting the Rock in one.
Barbie does that. Barbie presents in which Barbie plays a character. But in some Barbie movies Barbie is herself and her job is an actress who played those characters in the Barbie presents movies
They even make a joke in Toy story 3 about that.
"It's not that I understand it, I just don't care"....this just sums up the entire movie
DIO!!!!
Eh, I used to like it.
That's a Homer Simpson quote infinitely useful today.

WHERE IS DON BLUTH?!!!!!

@Cody Smith Uh, no. Don is still alive.
@@AnonymousFrogNG Wikipedia says he's still alive. So I'm going with the more hopeful idea, and just assuming he's not been up to much that's noteworthy in recent years.

The sponsorship was more entertaining than that drawn out joke.
I dont understand this one but I still watched. It was better than the annoying drawn out joke.

For me, it's critic and Game Grumps. Seriously, when marketing people will make commercials, not suffering?
Nah, I love the 10 second jump function for that. Quickly skipping it

@@Cowboyking92We might have to kill a lot of people now.
I actually did forget about it until this video.
15:50 Ok, He will do a "Where is the tooth joke next."
17:50 At least he is honest.
That was 2 Minutes.
I actually went to sleep and then come back to it the next morning to draw out the joke some more.
I used to work at a small Video Store a few years ago and I would always run older obscure movies during my shift to get people talking and renting old things. I threw this on one day and everyone was entranced by it and then shocked to learn it came out in 2001... it rented quite well.
Damn
6:56 Ming-Na Wen!!! I love her!!! She’s the voice of Mulan and she plays Melinda May on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.!!! She is F*UCKING AWESOME!!!

Yet she wasn't in here...as the video showcases.
She was Chun Li in Street Fighter the movie

"Virtual actors" aka just reusing models in 3d animated movies and pretending that makes it revolutionary instead of lazy.
Who will care about models? People will only care about the voice actors.
Yeah like James Cameron's Avatar
stick figure animation is also very cheap but with dramatic special effects and cgi can be transformed into something truly amazing
Saves money too :D
I still find it funny how people genuinely believed that could've ruined the actor industry or something
That ending tho...
What a twist!
- M.Night Shamalamadingdong
Well. That got Meta.
Shamalama is legit a prick in real life, I saw him on the street once in LA and he actually kicked a stray dog. Hes walking back to his car and this cute little pupper just trots on toward him and he sees it and literally just fucking punts this little dog like 5 feet with people around and everything. This whole time hes carrying a starbucks cup in one hand and his douchey 300$ sunglasses in the other. Anyway, really reflects bad on him as a person, but I saw this right before I accidentally hit the dog so I dont know if I really have room to talk.
M. Night Shamamalamba
Cinematic Excrement calls him M. Night Shambleson.
I'm convinced Hironobu Sakuguchi only directed this so he'd have a reason to resign from Square.
Maybe he did. But then again, directing a game and a movie are two different animals.
Wait Sakaguchi directed this shite????? What???????
@@authorrobjohnson3178 Not really. The only difference is that directing a game's actor and writing the story takes more time.
@@pedroxruz6032 Is it? Oh okay. I thought with a game script, there was more filler in between because of game play.
@@pedroxruz6032 Except for the whole pacing, screentime, things that can be told with gameplay, things that can actually be expositioned with an exposition dump without being boring because youi can choose to actually read/watch them or not... Yeah, except for all that, they are practically the same.
And that's only from the art perspective. Then you add the technical part (that also need to be directed).
But sure, besides that, totally the same.
Sakaguchi is a good videogame director, but a movie director he isn't. And that's fine. It's like Nomura, who is a good art and character designer, but a really bad videogame director. Noone can be good at everything.
I was FAR more entertained by the "WHERE IS THE PROOF!?" drawn-out joke than this entire movie so good job, Doug. xD

@@thischannelisdeadso3701 it was that offensive. And how dare you laughed at that joke! That was too far!
If you ever played Life Is Strange, the game which produced by Square Enix, the main character, Max ever said this line:
"Final Fantasy The Spirits Within is the best Sci-fi movie that ever made. I don't care what everyone said. It has the best visual effects that I've ever seen in my life."
Jeez, Square Enix doesn't want to admit their mistakes, huh?
Dontnod made life is strange. but Max herself was a strange girl and into peculiar movies.
@@hecatomb1864 that's crazy. I'm glad they survived though. Just goes to show that taking risks doesn't always pay off. I personally liked the movie though
I thought of it as an inside joke like REMEMBER THAT AWFUL MOVIE THAT ALMOST BANKRUPTED US *wink* *wink*
@@hecatomb1864 its said that to this day, square is still attempting to kill themselves.
Are you cereal?
To be fair, while the hair, clothing, and environmental textures in this movie look awful, the actual faces on the characters are still pretty impressive, in my opinion.
I'll still say, for a movie that's 18 years old, the animation still holds up.
I like the random Archer outbursts. "OH MY GOD YOU KILLED A HOOKER!" was my favorite 🤣
Honestly Archer Is funnier when you take it out of context... Because outside of Archers performance i don't find the rest of the show that funny because the characters are too anoying to be likeble and the animation Is not really that fun to watch in my opinion. Look phatom Strider video to find out my problems with the show.
@@motor4X4kombat It would be a complete shit show without Archer being a smartass. I also liked Krieger, the rest of the characters were annoying, i agree

I liked the film as a stand alone film I just would have liked it alot better had Final Fantasy wasn't slapped on it, that was it's downfall.
Super agreed. I remember going with a friend to see it in theaters and we both are huge FF fans, so it was kind of a slap in the face to us. But I watched it a few years ago, and as a standalone film, it's definitely not horrible.
Disagree. On it's own merits, the movie is boring and badly written. It has no redeeming qualities at all.
For me Final Fantasy was all about the four elemental crystals. I'm sure somebody would know what final fantasy is aside from the spiky blonde guy carrying a big fat sword.
Glad to see others who liked the film. We're rare.

I’m actually a little surprised it was not mentioned on how influencing this movie was for sci fi. Sure it was a total flop but it’s influences were seen for quite a few years.
Mass effect specifically was heavily inspired by the movie with things like the Omnitool heavily inspired by Aki’s arm tool from the start of the movie.
Wow, the movie is so forgettable that I didn't even realize this

As a huge Final Fantasy fan, I must say this movie felt nothing like Final Fantasy...
Dull world, dull characters, generic uninteresting plot.

I dragged my mom to this movie cuz i loved FF so much and I felt like apologizing to her afterwards. Soooo boring.
Yeah i felt exactly that way even back then, when the movie very 1st came out~
I've never even played any FF games, and even I could tell that this had nothing to do with Final Fantasy.
The only thing FF about this movie was a character named Sid.

@Cynical Joker true and that's because of the uncanny valley the more something tries to look human the weirder it looks
That inclusion of the FFX laugh was genius, Doug.
Twice.
It's so weird seeing how this animation was friggin' GROUNDBREAKING for 2001, but nowadays games I have on my steam library have these graphics or better and they were sold half-off.
Disney's Dinosaur came out the same year and it's better.
Plus, this animation looks better than the Scorpion King in The Mummy Returns.
@@Alejandroigarabide its easier to animate anthropomorphic dinos than it is to animate photo realistic humans without breaching the uncanny Valley
