I thought <em>Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within</em> was a muddled, incomprehensible (but very pretty) mess. @Greg — I can’t back you up on that one, I’m afraid.

Only in the case that had he watched all game to movie transrations.(Yes that is intended.) Such classics as Mortal Kombat Annialation, Double Dragon, Mario Bros, Street Fighter the movie, Blood rayne etc.... Most these movies, and more all share two things in common. 1. All have crappy camera angles living up to the posts arugment. 2. All Directed by an individual that couldn't direct his way out of a wet paper bag, with a hack saw. Actually this article has merit.
