And this, is very stupid and could have just been a Mummy Prequel or another Scorpion King movie for all it's gonna be like the Prince of Persia.

The purest adaptation would have the Prince be sideways to the camera the whole time.

The purest adaptation would just be another video game, but our culture's obsession with hollywood means everything has to have a movie.

Dude! How many times do I have to tell you Creator/Writer wrote it and said in an interview that the final product was what he wanted?!

Dude! Chill!

Just because the original writer for the game wrote it and liked it doesn't mean it's good, nor does it mean that the translation from game to movie works well.

They just shouldn't complain about a 'pure' adaptation when Mechnar wanted to give us a good adaptation.

If you dont know the difference go rent the theatrical cut of Watchmen then for the good adaptation watch V for Vendetta.

Gunslinger I think you're taking some of the comments people are tossing out to be direct confrontation at you.

Take a chill pill, man.

Uhmmmm Internet, where people complain about things. My second comment was more along the lines of needing to make a movie instead of just letting works of art like V and Watchmen and PoP exist as good things on their own.
That being said I DO understand what a good adaptation is and think sometimes what can make something good in one medium does'nt work regardless of how well the story is transplanted. Like farah and The Prince's relationship built up in the actual game while you were playing, which made the game a better game.

Gunslinger, what some people are arguing is that the changes that he made to make a 'good adaptation' actually detract from it. The fact that the Prince was never referred to by his name in the game was fairly cool and well done, and some people would like to see that done on the big screen as well.

Chill pill has been taken, sorry if I offended anyone but the vibe I'm getting is that nobody is open to change.

I'm just making a case that there is no way in hell that they will do to this film what Fox did to Dragonball.
