well, i don't really use the term emo that loosely that often anyway. just didn't know how else to describe that stupid piece of crap kadaj and his useless gang. also, sorry that i got your gender messed up.
i'll admit that advent children may have been better than spirits within, but i still thought it sucked. even if they actually based it off an actual final fantasy game for once. i guess there is a market for zero plot, zero character development, zero originality action sequences movies/animes anyway as long as you slap a big name label on it.

Considering the audience that has "accepted" or watch Advent Children (and how it's design is anime based) and how all the anime magazines and news sites are saying are advertising it, I guess you can call it "CG Anime" like Hokuto no Ken Legend of Heroes and MS Igloo and Appleseed 2004. Except those are good ones =D!!
Here's a quote from Tomino, creator of Gundam, that pretty much explains why I hated it: "People go to the movies today to see movement more than story, and then you end up with something like the third episode of The Matrix"
Instead replace the 3rd episode of matrix with Advent Children.
