Prince of Persia

[Raa]

I REALLY hope they'll do a Warrior Within movie! Now that was a frickin fantastic game, one of my favs TBH.

It'd look good on the big screen if done right :yes:

i think they've mixed elements from the first 2 games together a bit if you watch the trailer carefully, i dont want to give away anything with spoilers. (or maybe i'm just seeing things)

just remembering back to playing sands of time and warrior within makes me want to play rival swords/two thrones even though i heard it wasnt as good as the previous installments

The trailer looks good. I think it'll be a fun, entertaining summer blockbuster and it looks like it's keeping the feel of the game, Sands of Time.

I just have one question though; Why for being called the "Prince of PERSIA" do many characters, including said Prince, seem to have English accents?

This looks like it wont be too great.

(normally optimistic)

The trailer looks good. Hope it isn't a flop (Y).

[Yusuf M. Veteran]

That was better than I expected. I'll definitely see this movie in the summer.

[Black Flash]

Doesn't look as good as I thought it would, but it's just a trailer. I'm still watching this for sure.

[watchthisspace]

I for one am excited.

[TonyLock]

Looks real bad, forced storyline, poor acting and poor choice on the casting front.

I hope they use a remix of the music from the original game

[Rappy Veteran]

There's already a big thread about the trailer/movie :)

[peterish]

Looks at least somewhat entertaining :)

I also thought it looks and feels like "The Mummy".

[Fedr0]

maybe i'm just seeing things

I don't think so, did you notice the extendable sword? ;)

[Colin.B]

Gah. I didn't know we already had a PoP topic. I guess I should have used the search function huh? :p

Anyways, why do they have British accents?

It looks pretty decent overall though.

[Rappy Veteran]

Ben Kingsley is British as is Gemma Arterton and she can't do any other accent, Jake shouldn't be trying though :p

[Colin.B]

Ben Kingsley is British...Jake shouldn't be trying though :p

Exactly :p....And Kingsley is good enough of an actor to pull off a different accent :p.

[Razorwing]

Hope they can pull this off.. I'm still wishing for an Assassin's Creed movie... That would be awesome.

For the same reason foreign characters speak English and aliens speak English [in movies]: people don't like to read subtitles.

[Barney T. Administrators]

Merged

[Boz]

I have a feeling it's going to be a flop. Jake Gyllenhaal doesn't look Persian at ALL and the girl doesn't seem adequate for the role as well. If you are making a movie about Prince of "Persia", you'd expect the actors to at least look like someone from that time and land.

Avatar on the other hand looks to be EPIC.

Yeah but subtitles aside you can put on the accent without speaking the language. Well...Some actors can anyways.

Ah well. It is what it is and PoP is a Jerry Bruckheimer produced summer blockbuster. It could be worse - It could be a Michael Bay produced or directed film. Then instead of British accents we'd be getting American ones and a product placement every five seconds.

I actually hate the fake accents most of the time. And I would be mad if I had to endure arabic and indian accent in the entire movie. Its much more sensible to go with the original accents of the actors/market for which the movie is being made that is UK or US.
