Anime doesn't sell in the States. If you want to tap into the US market with FFVII, you'll need to make a video game.

As for people talking about FFVII not having played it... yeah, I don't think that's true at all. It's a popular game even now, and not just because of Advent Children.

...Although I'd agree with you that turn-based RPGs are on the way out (as they should be) I don't agree that the system "doesn't have a future on HD consoles", as though HD automatically means that the gameplay is going to improve any.

I really think they should take whatever Versus XIII is doing and implement that in any FFVII remake, though.

Doubt it. Many of the fans who played FFVII when it came out are in their mid-20s now, and as such may have less free time but also more of their own money.

You'd really have to hit the nostalgia factor, but that's what a remake is supposed to do.
