As far as they're concerned, Square-Enix should have just stopped with Advent Children.
By the way, I'd really like to see where you get off saying that lots of people would love to see this happen. Lots of your friends want it? People slobber over it on message boards you visit? Great. Now show me some solid data.
And while you're at it, try to differentiate between people "who would love to see it happen" and people "who would pay $50 to play the game all over again."

Stop antagonizing me because you don't think FFVII Is one of the best Final Fantasy games ever made. Aside from VI, VII marked one of the best storylines ever interpolated into a RPG.
It surprises me that you don't even know about the mass cult following FFVII has. Go to any gaming forum, mention FFVII and you'll get a mass amount of people from each forum that will accomodate you, Albeit GT considering it used to be a Nintendo forum and VII seperated marked a new relationship from Nintendo and on Playstation..
Nintendoids pay money all the time to see Mario in everything else, and they pay money for Zelda after Zelda game....... Now.... to pay $50 for a remake of a game thats only been done once....isn't going to hurt the franchise as much as you would hope it would. All FF games have been original, except for X-2 being a sequel. And you cannot count Advent Children considering it's a friggin movie.
So to have a VII remake? You act as if this is the millionth time they've remade a game. Honestly the only 'whoring' I've seen from Square is FFX-2.
