Prince of Persia: The Sands Of Time Trailer

John Campea 108 Comments

There is a new trailer up for “Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time”, and I’ve got to tell ya I think it sucks. This movie looks HORRIBLE. I’ve been really excited about this project with high hopes that a video game movie may actually work… but those hopes took a HUGE dip after watching this.

Now keep in mind… this is just a trailer. The movie may end up working just fine… I’m just saying it doesn’t look like it right now. Take a look and judge for yourself:

    Not sure what almost everyone else watched but in my opinion that trailer looked pretty damn sweet.

    Come on you guys this trailer cant be that bad. I for one was really hoping they would do a good job with this movie.

    And I am only half wrong. What the story is lacking in Plot, they make up for it in with amazing visuals and an entertainment value.

    That’s really all I look for in a movie, The Entertainment Value. i.e. Uwe Bull’s movies (Aweful!) but entertaining.

    That trailer looked awesome. Way better than any crap that came out this past year besides District 9 and Star Trek. Looks like a good time like the first Mummy movie or the first Pirates movie.

    I have to admit, I’m not blown away by the trailer, but I’m still excited to see this when it releases. I’m a huge fan of the PoP trilogy this movie is based on, and while they’ve retained the look and overall feel of the games, the biggest thing that concerns me is the inclusion of side characters who seem to serve as little more than comic relief. In the games, there is roughly only four or five characters who get speaking roles which keeps the story centered around the main protagonist and his struggle to seal the sands of time once and for all, but here we have the fat comedic tag-along, the strong African bodyguard and Badguy McImadouche. While it’ll probably make more sense in the movie, one of the best parts about the game was the prince’s inner monologues and lack of needless characters.

    I’m pretty excited that Harry Gregson-Williams is doing the original score. Maybe we’ll get some hollywood remixes of the game’s original soundtrack?

    i’m not sure what’s going on here. many people are quick to jump on the thought that this movie sucks and have a some strange pre-conceived notion even through watching this trailer, that since it’s a video game movie it’ll suck (or perhaps since john said so?).

    i don’t see anything “horrible” in this trailer. actually it looks quite promising. this a bruckheimer/disney film. it’s sure to have some great aspects.

    what exactly is your problem with this? the only thing i didn’t like what gyllenhaal’s accent. what are you expecting? it’s a prince of persia film.

    I don’t think it looks bad,…but I don’t necessarily think it looks good either.

    I don’t think it looks “HORRIBLE”, but I will admit it doesn’t look any where near as good as I thought it would :( It seems like Jake Gyllenhall got acting tips from Orlando Bloom for this movie.

  • Renton

    I thought I saw Jeff from Coupling for a moment there?

  • brandon

    I really cant agree with any of you, I think this movie looks great, cinimatography wise looks amazing too. Im gonna see it

      I was against jake as being prince.an wasn’t a huge fan of gemma arteson,being that i only vaguely remeber her in Quantum of solace.But this movie does seem like it has captured whati remeber from the video games.an i’m a major fan of the pop series.

      • Dragonslayer

        Gemma Arteson was annoying in Quantum of Solace. Just sayin.
