We had a sneak preview of a Prince of Persia movie poster via a shop window reflection in Confessions of a Shopaholic, said poster does not resemble the oddly futuristic ones recently released. The intense black and white posters are garnished with strong typography that I don’t rate highly — it feels somehow that they have missed the point? “Deny the future”. Although some are arguing that this stops the movie looking like a video game to movie adaptation — it is sleek and slick and could help the film find its audience.

Expect a Ben Kingsley poster shortly, not our first viewing, but this one is particularly menacing! Scoop via Coming Soon.

It is not SOT. SOT main color theme is blue.
The color and the amor look like the 2nd part Warrior Within. I don’t know if they want to merge SOT and Warrior Within. Why they can’t make POP movie like LOTR tri-ology.
I’m afraid this movie will suck like Dragon Ball DE-evolution.

This is very wrong and it’s such a shame because a film like this can help break stereotypes about Middle-Easterners, Iranians in particular, but NONE of these characters are played by Iranians/Persians.
This shows us how ethnocentric Hollywood is being again. Just like with Blackface (when White actors played Black characters) we are seeing Persianface in this movie. It’s clear that the filmmakers simply want to MAKE MONEY and they don’t care about representing the Persian community at all. They’re just EXPLOITING.
Prince of Persia? More like Impostor of Persia. Read more of my thoughts here:

Yep totally agree with Du, it will suck…
THat looks SO much more like Warrior Within thans Sands of TIme…
I have nothing against the actors, I’m waiting to see, but if they merge my precious Sands of Time with Warrior Within I’m gonna kill someone!
I srsly disagree >.<

I have high hopes for POP but deep within I feel it will be shattered. It does not feel like the POP I came to know through the game. Maybe, just maybe they;ll remake it like they did the Hulk. I’m expecting a disappointment.
i have recently bought “warrior within” and have all the games.… but it looks like they arent just doing the sands of time…it looks more like warrior within. i mean its a good game but it may confuse people in the movie. but i dont know if the movie will be as good as the game cuz it doesnt really look like its going to follow the actuall story line. but other than that the actors i think are perfect for it.
AN INDIAN SHOULD HAVE BE THE PRINCESSTOO.
Eh. That’s Hollywood. Personally, the only set-back to this movie that I have is that it’s being distributed by Disney, but that’s only mostly because of the crap they’ve been spewing, lately. Jake Gyllenhal proved to be an AMAZING actor in the phenomenal film Donnie Darko, which is the only film I’ve seen with him in it, and I haven’t seen the acting for the other cast members, so I’ll hold judgment. I think we should all remain cautiously optimistic, unless you want it to be a box-office bomb and something the studio doesn’t give a crap about like Dragonball Evolution.
Maybe the Warrior Within look is just the look they thought was coolest, so they stuck it in there. I, personally, like the Two Thrones take, myself, but eh. As they say, to each his own.

I’m with Tasunara.
I think that so far the color theme is off, and the story is changed… But that doesn’t neccessarily mean it’ll be terrible. It’d be impossible to do things in movies the same way it’s done in a game. We’ll just wait and see what happens with it.
BTW, the game isn’t exactly a perfect Persian representation either. And the top poster I think is ok, but it would be nice if a few of those weren’t black and white.
Dude you gays can say wat ju want to.there are going to be 3 movies.sand of time.warrier with in.and the two throns.or wat ever ist name is.my pion is.a game should stay a game.not to be formed in a movie.as yu all know to play the game you need som skills.so do all the 55 spesial atacks.and if ubisoft are making the movi.it will be the same as the game.
it is not the movie i expected. the dagger of time will play an interesting part in the movie.i expect in next part(warrior within) the dagger of time.
Thanks for an idea, you sparked at thought from a angle I hadn’t given thoguht to yet. Now lets see if I can do something with it.
