Hey, it's the first trailer for the PoP movie! And it looks pretty darn cool, in a very Pirates of the Carribean sort of way. Fans of the last couple games will certainly recognise elements from the Sands of Time trilogy, as well as "PoP 2008", and a very "Assassin's Creed" shot to boot. Jake Gyllenhaal's "Movie British" accent is quite something to behold, too. Check it out. Prince of Persia:
