Do you think there should be a prince of persia movie?

Actually it was from your response there, that i got the idea for starting this topic, and i remember when i got the first prince of persia, i was like this guy looks like john abraham's twin. If that movie is ever made, he should definitely be the guy.

he's an indian actor, bollywood, he used to be a model.
i uploaded his picture here as well, didn't you see it?
i know, you thought it was a picture of the prince, right?
That's why i said he'd be perfect cuz he's like a twin of POP.

I saw it after I posted. How's his english?

it's not that bad, he does have that little bit of an indian accent, but hey, if the movie is made, it will be less talking and more action, and plus those things can be taken care of, actors adopt different accents for many roles, he's not that good of an actor, but he does do well in some roles.
He looks perfect though

ya, let's hope they do.
Because this would make a great great movie!!!

i think it could make a great movie, if it's made properly and if i stays true to the game, unlike most games turned movies.
i don't know about brendan fraser though, he looks nothing like the prince and he doesn't look like he's from persia, i think looks wise john is perfect.
i wonder why it's not already been done yet too.

While he does look different i'm just wondering about the character - i've not see the other guy act see. Has the prince ever been in a book? I was thinking maybe it's the lack of detail that we know about him because while plot is important if you don't know the character.. if us game players don't know it then it could flop. The thing is aswell remember the mario movie - that should have been a decent film but was lame. Maybe there have been scripts but not enough interest in them?

well, i think the prince was a warrior, a fighter,
and i'm stressing more on looks because usually movies that are adapted from games, they concentrate on the costumes but not on the actual look and feel of the character. And that's why especially for gamers, it turns out to be a disappointment, and another thing is that they divert completely from the game, i mean you don't really need a completely different script especially for POP, cuz the whole game is about story, and it's about action and great wall moves and speed kills, and great boss fights, i think if anyone should make a movie, he or she should be a gamer themselves.

Well we'll have to wait and see then. I have to be honest and say I can't see it happening but it'd be a film I'd probably want to see if it's ever made

ya,i guess we will have to wait, i don't know if it's ever gonna happen, i'm just saying tht it should.
You do like to get the last word in, don't you,
guess what, so do I..

ofcourse, i think everyone here ws thinking of a hollywood production as well, and john's the right match for it.

ok
here's what i think
great script but nothing too far away from the game, actually the script should be based totally on the game, i would say mainly warrior within and two thrones, cuz those had great story lines.
ofcourse an excellent director, who has played the game, and who understands the prince and sees him like gamers do.
a great actor, but someone who we can see the prince in, in his face, in his characteristics, and i'll still stick to john abraham with that.
i totally agree with the last one, full support and consultation of the game developer, that's where most movie makers go wrong they buy the rights to the game, and they make it with their own vision, instead of that they should work together with the game developers to make a great movie but to still keep the game feeling alive in the movie.

okay......
any opinions or suggestions about the actor to play his part????

that's not what i meant.
i have played the sands of time and loved it just as much as you can,
i apologize if what i said sounded like i was dissing sands of time, because i wasn't,
i simply implied that the other two, especially warrior within, has the best potential for the most awesome scenes and fights, ofcourse the first one is really important cuz that's how it all starts, but i was saying that if it has to be compressed in one movie, then the villain of the second one, the dahaka, would be a great supporting character, cuz the second one has the most material to work with.

yeah, i agree.
it is a 'great great' game,
i didn't know john was internationally recognized but he definitely looks the part.
