Wow, I just found a 35mm trailer for Final Fantasy VIII

Post by onemanfilmcrew »

I knew I had a lot of game related stuff, but I honestly have no idea where I got this from. From what I remember you can't sell 35mm stuff on ebay (like movies and movie trailers). Anybody have any idea if there is a marketplace for this kind of stuff? It's like a 30 second trailer for the game that they would show before movies.

You can buy and sell 35mm on Ebay (shot or not). Now I would be wary to try and sell a film (since typically they are rented and not sold so you could get in legal trouble there).

I am curious to how this works. If you were down here we could have fed it into one of my old mans projectors.

I know that years ago they banned 35mm films and trailers because they are tightly controlled by the MPAA and movie studios. I assume that's still the case.

I did a search on youtube but couldn't find the trailer in question. I've never watched this one because I've never had access to a movie projector, and i'm not sure i want to break the official Squarsoft seal.

It looks like it runs about 30 seconds though.

If I recall this is the same trailer that was shown as a secret bonus on the FF7 promotional VHS that was sent out. Epic music in it!

This is a pretty neat item to have in a collection.
