With that much CG, why bother even casting real actors?

Wow that looks absolutely terrible. And Jake isn't even hot with that mop on his head.

Jake looks great, but not terribly Persian
11/4/2009 9:35 PM

Jake Gyllenhall should not be The Prince of Persia at all...
11/4/2009 8:47 PM
-
if they're persian, why do they have british accents. No one knows how to act anymore.
11/4/2009 7:33 PM

few in the States read Persians/Iranians as "Caucasian" or the American definition of Caucasian.
Sadly, most game to movie adaptations are horrible. Besides Super Mario Brothers

I friggin' loved that video game. And the latest one for PS3 was amazing. I'm a little apprehensive about the film though. And PS, why isn't he ethnic? Or umm, Persian?! LOL don't get me wrong, Jake is hot, but c'mon! He better be tan in the film!
11/4/2009 5:00 PM

I totally played that game. LOL

Ted
Well, he is usually a good bit whiter.
Persians are caucasian.

Or straight guy who works out and doesn't shave his chest maybe?

I feel like it will be a terrible movie but a must-see because Jake Gylenhaal look sso hot in this movie! Very Brad Pitt from "Troy". Such a departure from any other role he's done.
11/4/2009 2:36 PM

Lol this is going to be a bad movie... Most game to film movies are bad....

Jake is so hot I'm willing to put up with the drivel that passes for dialogue...and the failed attempts at witty banter...and the British accents...and the lack of Persians...basically I'll put up with anything; he's that hot.
11/4/2009 12:41 PM
-
I just like Jake... he's a hottie. Lol.
11/4/2009 11:29 AM

there's no way this will be a good movie. but i'll absolutely go to see it.

Jake Gyllenhaal bores me now. I got what I wanted out of him in Bareback Mountain. Move along, folks. There's nothing to see here.

No Daniel.. he annoys the hell out of me too.

does he annoy the hell out of anyone else?

That bothers me too, Bill. There are definitely hot Persians, and I'm sure at least a few of them can act.
11/4/2009 6:36 AM
-
I'll probably see it. But come on couldn't we find a real Persian to play a Prince of Persia?? I totally think Ilyas could have pulled the role off.
11/4/2009 6:28 AM
-
Lol, maybe the thought the Middle Eastern accent is the same as the British one?
11/4/2009 6:22 AM
-
Why are they all British?
11/4/2009 4:53 AM

What's wrong with snakes?
11/4/2009 4:50 AM
-
Sounds like a good movie.
But why do people have to have snakes and stuff?
Because of this, I will not see the movie.

there HAS to be some hot Persian actors out there that could have played this role..
sexy Lebanese-American actor Haaz Sleiman (of Nurse Jackie fame) certainly could fill the shoes, and imho a lot hotter than Jake

Okay Jake would never pass for anything close to Persian in a million years, but he IS very good-looking.
