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

I agree with your point, nice one and very well said! Most of game based movies are garbage. Resident evil and tomb raider are the proves. I am a big fan of Tomb Raider games, but I dont like the movies. Prince of Persia is in different setting, and story. I think it worths the hope :)

That's alright dumpertaker, everyone's allowed to have their own opinions, in fact if you've seen some of my responses in other discussions like these, I've also said the same things that people take great games and make crap movies out of them, the only one I remotely liked was silent hill, because they didn't stray too far away from the game. This is just more of a wonderment, so you don't think there should be one, but if there is a movie then who do you think should play the prince. Because whether we like it or not, I strongly feel that this game will be made into a movie, it's just too good, and at least this way we can suggest our opinions on the actor or something, just for fun.

Cheers for understanding my view Vega! You have a valid point when you say that it is most likely that they will make a movie based on this game due to it's popularity, and as I had said previously, this could well be one of the few rare gems that are actually really good movies. As for who could play him? Hmmm, that's a toughie really, and if it were to happen it will probably go one of two ways... 1)It goes down the cheaply made junk movie route, and they will enlist someone who nobody has heard of, the movie will sink into the mists of bad movie history (maybe) 2)If gets the mega Hollywood treatment and they will use some a-list movie star (like a tanned Johnny Depp) and it will just look wrong. I have seen pictures of the person you had suggested (the name escapes me now) and he looks really good for the part, and I think he would be the way forward.

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

Well that is true, he will have to work hard at his accent, that seems to be the only hurdle though, that and the fact that he'll have to improve his acting skills a bit. I still don't like the idea of Orlando Bloom as the prince, but I think Monica Belucci would definitely be good as kaileena.

ewww, hrithik, not so much, I was thinking a hollywood movie, and I only suggested John because of his freakishly close resemblance to the prince.

hmmm..... not really sure which one that is, but I think I remember him, but you're right he could be a little too old to play the prince, if the prince was the king that would've been different, but..... since he's the prince, I think it definitely has to be someone younger.

For real? That is awesome!!!! Don't know about Michael Bay but Josh Holloway can definitely be the prince, yeah, I can just picture it now. He'd make a good prince.

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

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.

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.

yeah, warrior within is my favorite one too, and i think if all parts are made into a movie separately then that one would definitely be the best, it had the best story and the best endings as well.

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

yeah, but that's achievable, actors blow up or shrink down all the time, plus he already has a pretty good body, maybe a little bit more work on those muscles and he'll be good to go.
