Sin Vs Lavos

I don't see any evidence of timestopping there. The water is still being moved by it's gravity blast.

It temporarily stops time. That's why the water is frozen in place and Tidus and the gang look around to see that time has stopped. I'm at work so I can't pull up youtube.

...There is a very big problem here. When people look around to see that you've stopped time, something has gone horribly wrong with the "stopped" part.

Maybe Titus and crew were protected from the time stop somehow?

But if that's the case, you have to ask:

If they were able to somehow protect themselves from Sin's time stop, wouldn't Lavos be able to just laugh it off- given that he has much better time manipulation feats than any of the FFX crew?

The simpler explanation is of course that the water just hangs in place from the residual effects of a giant ball of gravity distortion carving a hole in the world.

Particularly as we see the effect progressively collapsing.

When did he do that? I'd like a link, because last time you said he was pulling down the moon which turned out to not be what was happening.

That wasn't? That's what it LOOKED like was happening. And that's right before he does his "five turns until instant game over, no stats, no damage, just GAME OVER." which I thought was supposed to be his super-gravity attacks smashing Spira with the moon or something.

Looks like he pulls it down a bit before breaking the shot into his destructive five way, then we cut back to a space-veiw where we can still see th clouds forming and indentation under where the moon was at the start of the clip.

Or their immune to time stops.

But in this case, I'm going to go with I definatly agree with you that this was not a time stop.

Makes sense now that I think about it. I always viewed it as a time-stop. Not that it would mattered in this case seeing as Lavos seems to have time based abilities of his own.
