(possible Rebirth spoilers)

I've seen a couple of cutscenes from Rebirth and there's one where a doctor tells Tifa that a Shinra helicopter saved her and that they "aren't all bad". Plus they seem to be setting up that there is a more "Tankie" version of Avalanche in Wutai that might be bad?

If we're being fair, the original also has a pretty consistent undertone of 'Not All Shinra Employees' with Reeve/Cait's whole presence in the story. The Shinra Manager parts in Costa Del Sol are also pretty much pulled directly from their equivalent npc in the OG. Yuffie gives up on the whole Wutai revolution and her Shinra hate after her dad's like "yeah look its not worth it" & even supposedly goes with Vincent to Midgar to help evacuate civilians and Shinra employees at the end (although this isn't ever actually mentioned ingame iirc)

As long as we get to see

I'll be satisfied.

I once watched that movie with friends for a laugh but we couldn't even riff on it

There's no way I would be able to go through that whole self-serious movie and not crack a rib laughing at the scene way at the end where Kadaj transforms and Cloud's reaction is "Sephiroth . . . . Whaddya want?" Like he just answered his mother's 3rd phone call that day
