> That seems all wrong, but maybe it makes sense

<spoilers>It is wrong by the original story, but Remake doesn’t follow the original story - it is more along the lines of “what if sepiroth projected himself back in time to mess with the timeline and ensure that his original plan succeeds?”. Most of Part 1 features weird ghost things which block any attempt to stray from the original timeline, but they die at the end of Part 1, so I’m expecting Part 2 to go far further off the rails</spoilers>

Hm, that’s interesting. That could be awesome. And although I loved the idea of a remake, it seems right to have fun with it and diverge from the original a bit.

See also Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, in which time fuckery-duckery is involved to tell a different story with the same characters. I rather liked it, but I guess I was in the mood for something different from seeing a rehash of the comic or movie.

The same characters… without Scott pilgrim though.
