SSJ4_Haruhi Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 Well this came out last Friday here in the UK, yet to see it but I want to. Was wondering if anyone has seen it, if so then feel free to share your views about the film here. From what I've heard, it is an average video game film for once!

MikeKeese Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 Well I have not seen it but according to reviews, it is the best video game movie made so far. Of course that is not saying much and it is still not supposed to be that good. It really just seems to me like they took the formula for Pirates of the Caribbean and changed it to the PoP storyline and there you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Labartu Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 I've watched it last Saturday and it is, without a question, the best video game movie made to date. I actually enjoyed the movie, tbh. If you're going to watch it you just have to accept that they changed certain things to make it into a movie and appeal to more people than just the gamers who enjoyed PoP as a video game. I would say the movie was slightly above average all in all, even though I enjoyed it alot more than some other movies considered "good" by the masses.

dvymonster Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 saw it and didn't like it. The most exciting point of it all was, when I ran out of cheese for my nachos It is one of the better game/movies, but still it was not my cup of tea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSJ4_Haruhi Posted May 27, 2010 Author Share Posted May 27, 2010 Well I'm happy to see that a video game series I like has managed to get a better than poor score. I may see it soon, if my mate doesn't want to see it then I'll see it on my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevenflow Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 I wasn't aware there were so many white persians... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamby Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 (edited) I wasn't aware there were so many white persians... You clearly know nothing of that area. The reason white people are called "Caucasians" is because there is an area in Persia called Caucasus. Persia, is actually where Iran is now. Iranians are more along the lines of "white" than they are Arabian. They also don't like being called Arabs. So.. here's some food for thought: Click here for some Persians that are "white". Here's a little excerpt if you are too lazy to click the link and actually read it. Iran literally means Land of Aryans. Obviously Persians today look a bit different than they did prior to the Arab invasions of long ago; but even today, many Persians are very light-skinned with light eyes. And yes, there are truly blonde/green eyed Persians around. In Tehran, even. Next time you decide to open your mouth about something you know nothing about... I suggest you shut it before you make yourself look stupid again. I'm personally tired of people bitching (and articles on the internet bitching) about how someone "white" is playing a Persian. If any of these people knew anything about "Persia" they'd know that Persians look more white than they think and more "white" than Arabian. Jack Gyllenhaal looks fine for the role. He isn't just a "white guy", he's clearly been to a tanning salon of some sort to give him so color so he's not pasty white. Same thing with Gemma Arterton. Sorry for the rant, everyone else, but I get tired of this shit. Anyways... I loved the movie. I was thoroughly enjoying it the entire way through. I like Jake Gyllenhaal as an actor (a great actor, IMO) and I like Gemma Arterton because she's sexy. Ben Kingsley is also a great actor that I enjoy watching.

UnReAL Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Well I have not seen it but according to reviews, it is the best video game movie made so far. If that's what they're saying then they've clearly forgotten about The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay... Now THAT'S the best movie to game adaptation I've EVER seen.

Zenred Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Im with Jamby Im so tired of people bitching about skin color in a movie.....no one fucking complained when Wilson Fisk was a giant black guy in Daredevil (even though the movie was shit) Prince of Persia looks great and obviously you guys dont remember how white the Prince looked in the Sands of Time... same with The Last Airbender, get the fuck over it.

UnReAL Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 That was a movie to video game... not video game to movie. Know your shit. Oh my bad, the thread is titled "Forgotten Sands" so I thought we were talking about the game itself. Didn't realize this was actually about the film.
