HD trailer for Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time [I Heart Movies]

Here's the brand spanking new HD trailer for the upcoming Prince of Persia: Sands of TIme. It definitely looks very high budget Disney / Bruckheimer spectacular, something that I'm sure will rock plenty of theater seats and launch a thousand toy lines, but I'm still not sure how I feel about Jake Gyllenhaal in the lead role.

Here's the film's official synopsis:

From the team that brought the “Pirates of the Caribbean” trilogy to the big screen, Walt Disney Pictures and Jerry Bruckheimer Films present PRINCE OF PERSIA: THE SANDS OF TIME, an epic action-adventure set in the mystical lands of Persia. A rogue prince (JAKE GYLLENHAAL) reluctantly joins forces with a mysterious princess (GEMMA ARTERTON) and together, they race against dark forces to safeguard an ancient dagger capable of releasing the Sands of Time—a gift from the gods that can reverse time and allow its possessor to rule the world.

Set in the mystical lands of Persia, PRINCE OF PERSIA: THE SANDS OF TIME is an epic action-adventure about a rogue prince (JAKE GYLLENHAAL) and a mysterious princess (GEMMA ARTERTON) who race against dark forces to safeguard an ancient dagger capable of releasing the Sands of Time—a gift from the gods that can reverse time and allow its possessor to rule the world.

Maybe

It's said to have a $150 mil budget and the studio is NOT going to let that investment be a flop -- expect serious marketing muscle.  Gyllenhaal has decent draw especially among informed young females (if my sisters are any predictor).  I predict it'll do decently.  The trailer does make it seem like it lacks Pirates' playfulness, though.  I remain cautiously optimistic.

i dunno

i've been burned by video game movies in the past....it looks good but god damnit if i'm not a purist....if it stuck to the original story line then just maybe....it could be epic...and that's a big maybe

My instincts tell me this

My instincts tell me this will blow.  But goddammit, I love the game so much and I can't help but foolishly get excited.  I'll likely be there opening day...

Not the Same Audience

Pirates is not a good comparison for this one -- what with Gyllenhaal in the lead role, I wager it'll have a different target demographic. I hope. Because I'm sensing something like a million outraged theater-patrons that cried out and were suddenly silenced.

If disney can make three high

If disney can make three high grossing movies based on a theme-park ride, then they might be able to pull this off. But then there's also the haunted mansion movie . . . . . so I give Prince of Persia a 50/50 shot.

The cake actually wasn't a lie.
