I put on my robe and wizard hat...
 

No, seriously though, a whole ton of my friends in the Dallas/Fort Worth Area (Texas) are going to dress up as Final Fantasy characters for Final Fantasy:Advent Children. I got dibbs on Black Mage =). Alternatives are Auron, and Cloud/Zack. BM seems to have the easiest costume too, but does anyone know where I could purchase a Blue robe and a large straw/felt hat?

I'm not sure what half of your abbreviations mean, but try Pierre One.

Edit: Good Job

I CALL SEPHIROTH! Now all I have to do is go insane, grow my hair and dye it silver. Maybe I'll stick to Vincent. The hell with it, Locke will do. Wait- that STILL involves dying my hair silver. Damn black hair.

Locke has silver hair?
Also, just the thread title made me laugh for awhile, sorry but i have no clue where to acquire those materials. Maybe you could contact a clothing store and have one made?

Is there any word at all on when it may be released?

Sometime this summer we're hoping. My budget is short though =(.

We have NOBODY in our group with Sephiroth's build. It's hard to find someone with a feminine-yet-masculine body type, whose also an FF nerd.

*Edit: And yes, if you want to join us, PLEASE choose someone of your own build!

So, you're just going to dress up to watch a movie in your home?

As for what you need, just get a blue bed sheet and a big straw hat (Neither of those are hard to find).

Fehhhh!? It's not hitting theatres? Even if not, we're still going to dress up and act like nerds.

Yeah, it's not going to theaters, just straight to DVD (90% sure on that).

It's supposed to be like 30 minutes long last I heard, of course it's not going to theaters.

EDIT: Wrong, just found a site. It will be approximatly one hour. Still not theater worthy. It's just a long TV show in length.
