The term RPG get\'s tacked onto everything, when most really are RWG\'s, especially on the console. It\'s just a matter of a tradeoff between emergent and scripted gameplay, except it\'s existed in that genre for a long time, whereas it\'s now just an issue in other types of games. FF VII is a revolutionary RWG, if only for it\'s cinematics and graphics, that brought the genre into the mainstream, which I don\'t think is a bad thing. But Chrono Trigger is still the best game ever.
Oh and about the movie, don\'t really care, overall the game had one of the worst casts in FF history. Well then again all the character casts on the Playstation have overall been marginal except the amazing cast of FF IX.
