Final College Fantasy
by James Ransom-Wiley 
{ Jan 4th 2007 at 10:25PM }
His name is Mark Leung. And he's often bored at Massachusetts' Babson College. So he picked up a camera and began to craft a meticulously detailed parody of Final Fantasy; what he calls "College Saga." Here is Mark's introduction:
"Once upon a time, when Earth was still a beautiful place, an evil force came to turn all living things into Vegetarians. Three students from suburban Massachusetts would step up against this catastrophe ... to end Vegetarian Supremacy. Mark, Jesús, Maria and their foes would make amazing personal discoveries as the two forces clash. And so began the ultimate saga about friendship, heritage, sex and explosions."
Additional episodes: 2, 3, 4

Must have taken a lot of work and he needs some credit for this madness :P

Freaking. Awesome.
That is all.

Pure awesomeness. I've had in mind something similar, but more comedical rather than a straight parody. Must continue to share this video...

Hahaha I found this like two days ago. Should have submitted it, I guess. Anyway - I loved it. Totally hilarious. Very well done, too.

Hahaha I went to Babson with Mark. Great school, but there's a pathetic social life. Glad to see Mark's still making awesome videos.

I loved those bush/cheny moments

This man might be the best video maker ever. He should get like grants into Hollywood. THat was so well done I can't even begin to explain! I would pay money to see an entire FF game turned into that and made into a movie. God I wish I could meet this man.

Everyone that posted before me is the same person.
The short was really just kind of boring, and I didn't even laugh once.
jopojelly @ Jan 5th 2007 4:43AM
eh, It's cool and all, but as a film-maker or director, nothing about the videos shine. The effects were alright, but thats easy.

Beyond GAY!!

Mac OSX strikes for MASSIVE DAMAGE!

That was amazing. It got everything I never liked about the final fantasy games.
BTW, the students standing around staring at the walls at around 3:40 made me LOL.

Am I the only one who noticed that the way he picks up items and the sound played when he does is straight out of Zelda?
Aside from that, best. video. ever.
Airen @ Jan 5th 2007 12:58PM
The biggest problem is that it's at Babson.
Mike H @ Jan 5th 2007 3:06PM
Ha Ha, that was awesome. Is that the same person who did Ultimate Utopia XXIII?

yep, definatly some zelda and mario sfx in there, but great either way :D

Fantastic Final Fantasy parody. Although my only criticism that I am sure no one wants to hear is that the first two videos were better than the last two. Something about Napolean Dynamite cameos just disagree with me.
MysteriousMusician @ Jan 5th 2007 4:41PM
Damn, I love this. The detail is what made it funny. The stupid NPC dialogue, the chick getting stuck at the fence, how you look when you try to run from battle.
I'd watch more.
DJ_IS_GOOD @ Jan 5th 2007 9:38PM
This is the the funniest thing I have seen in a while. I am a huge RPG fan, and this sums it up...I look forward to the continuation.
Prescilla @ Jan 5th 2007 10:44PM
