Trailer!: Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

Filed Under: Movies trailer!

Holy tentpole release, Batman! In what crazy, fucked-up universe are we to believe that the very anglo Jake Gyllenhaal and Gemma Arterton were born in a thousand-mile radius of Persia/Iran? Also, why is that in historical epics ' terribly fake looking (i.e. this one) or not (i.e. Gladiator) ' everyone feels the need to speak in a British accent? I think I would rather watch the computer game on the original 1995 PC my parents had then this movie. Sigh, Jake. What happened? You spent so long building up all that cred, stayed away from romantic comedies and garnered critical acclaim. Sure, Ben Kingsley's in this but he's allowed to be because he holds ultimate badass status. You don't. You're just not that kind of guy. Must I remind you of Bubble Boy '

Jake Gyllenhaal is ANGLO?  FYI, Jake Gyllenhaal is JEWISH!
