Too bad Jake isn't as likable as Depp though, so it won't be that great
He will be by gay men and females once they see the movie.

i think this has a far better chance of being good then most do tbh, it has a decent director and producer behind it, decent cast, and it's disney. trailer looked pretty cool too, no better or worse then POTC imo. should be good, whether it will top my current fave movie based on a game (silent hill) who knows.

I think if it tops Silent Hill it's in a different way, at least for me. I really loved Gans' Silent Hill, but it was largely thanks to being faithful to the nature of a Silent Hill story and the look and feel of one. Prince of Persia can't get as much mileage out of simply evoking the feel of Sands of Time, it really has to be a great adventure movie, at which point the quality of the film itself becomes paramount.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that if PoP is good, it's automatically better as *a movie* than Silent Hill, and one that should appeal to anyone regardless of his or her familiarity with the game it's derived from.

I have actually been enthusiastic about this ever since I saw the workforce behind it and read that Disney's intention was to create a franchise to shoulder the Pirates mantle once that trilogy bowed out. Of course now it's evident that Pirates will stick around, and hopefully that hasn't impacted how much they'll be backing this one.

    SimonM7 Sorry, imagine THEM standing on THEIR own I meant to say. (12 minutes ago)
  • SimonM7
    SimonM7 The games counterpart is the interaction, the rules of it, the mechanics. Yet many seem to vastly value its storytelling component over those. Or rather, be unable to imagine it standing on its own. (14 minutes ago)
  • SimonM7
    SimonM7 Sure, but games are much more than storytelling devices, unlike movies. Sure, a song can move you with lyrics, but we listen for the melody, something a book can't give us. (17 minutes ago)

    Ronsauce If paintings/sculptures /movies/fashion can all be praised for their esthetics, I'm sure games can too. (21 minutes ago)

    Ronsauce @SimonM7: I always thought the debate was whether games were art, NOT whether they are their own artform...which they would be if they were art in the first place. (23 minutes ago)

  • SimonM7
    SimonM7 Yeah. We harp on about games supposedly being their own artform, yet the majority of players value the aspects shared with other mediums the most. Not exactly an airtight case. (1 Hour ago)
