Line 27:
'''Jane:''' [[Lampshade Hanging|No shit!]] }}
* [[Collision Damage]]: Touching a Phantom is almost always fatal. Hell, most of the bigger Phantoms don't actively attack, but rack up a body count just by wandering around.
* [[ColourColor-Coded for Your Convenience]]: When visible, the spirit energy is this. Phantoms (and anything else native to their planet) show up as red energy. Humans (and other creatures native to Earth) show up as blue energy. When the Phantom particle sealed with Aki's chestplate makes its [[Heel Face Turn]], its energy color changes from red to blue to signify its new loyalty.
* [[Combat Tentacles]]: Most Phantoms possess these; in particular, the [[Hand Cannon|Hand Cannons]] of the Phantom Soldiers had a variety of pipes and tubes which ''became'' their deadly tentacles upon their passing.
* [[Cool Car]]: Aki's ATV, armed with gel missiles for soft landings and an anti-Phantom [[Sphere of Power|barrier generator]].
Line 34:
* [[Death Is Dramatic]]
* [[Decontamination Chamber]]: The domed cities have decon protocols to keep out the phantoms that haunt the outside world. Though, for some reason people with enough clout get to skip them if they feel like it.
* [[Doing inIn the Wizard]]: When you see people complaining about the fantastic elements of the series having been "stripped out" of this movie, what they actually mean is that they are disappointed that Grey and company aren't casting Watera and Meltdown on anything, and Omega Weapon isn't the [[Big Bad]]. If you pay attention, magic (of a form) is pretty much the ''only'' element of the Final Fantasy mythos that isn't left out, beyond lip service.
* [[Domed Hometown]]: The City.
* [[Dynamic Entry]]: Gotta give it to DEEP EYES --they know how to make an entrance.
Line 53:
* [[If You Know What I Mean]]: Sid to Aki: "And stay away from your friend, the captain. He saves your life, you save his life... I was young once too you know?"
* [[Large Ham]]: James Woods plays the [[General Ripper]]. Expected hamminess ensues.
* [[Kill Sat]]: The Zeus space cannon.
* [[Kill Them All]]: {{spoiler|Only Dr. Aki and Dr. Sid manage to survive in the end.}}
* [[The Lifestream]]: The planetary gaia force is pretty much directly modeled after the ''[[Final Fantasy VII]]'' concept.
Line 71:
* [[Preview Piggybacking]]: The soundtrack contained a preview for ''[[Final Fantasy X]]''.
* [[Psychic Dreams for Everyone]]: They started haunting Aki at first, but then she shared them with Gray...
* [[Putting on the Reich]]: The Soldiers under the leadership of General Hein.
* [[Random Encounters]]: One of the few things seemingly taken from the source material, the movie comes up with an explanation of why monsters can just pop up out of the ground at any time.
* [[Real Is Brown]]: A sad foretelling of what many video games would be.
Line 91:
* [[Soft Glass]]: Played straight.
* [[Soul Cutting Blade]]: The phantoms.
* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: {{spoiler|Hein, quite literally so. Gee, you don't think overheating is a concern on a massive [[Kill Sat]]? Enjoy Hell, [[Jerkass]].}}
** He gives the impression that he thinks he is doing a [[Heroic Sacrifice]].
* [[Vasquez Always Dies]]: Jane Proudfoot, the tough [[Space Marine]], gets eaten, while [[Hot Scientist|Dr. Ross]] survives.
* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: Suicidal tendencies + access to huge freaking space cannon = BAD THING.
