    One of my favorite actors, one of my favorite gaming companies.

    I'm not asking for one of my favorite movies, but maybe one of my favorite game-movies?

    At least Ghosts has a semi hint of him being US Navy SEALs due to the skull design on his balaclava.

    Where as Johnny well is just another soldier with a balaclava.

    They should artifically increase the cost of the ticket by 10%, make the movie shorter by 30 minutes, and force you to watch it in stereo because they're too lazy to create a product for all targets.

    Fuck you IW.

    @balls187: IT WASN'T IW WHO INCREASED THE PRICE, IT WAS ACTIVISION. IW did, however, not add the bells and whistles that you spoiled PC gamers seem to demand. Which they probably should have. But they didn't so get over it. If you want to play the game, play it. If not, don't. It's that simple.

    @lenandude: Not sure why expecting a shooter on the PC to act like a PC shooter makes us spoiled.

    How would you like to forced to used a mouse and keyboard to play MW2 on the Console?

    IWNet is broken. 360 Gamers don't have to deal with this because they're on XBL, which has been around long enough to have the kinks worked out.

    I bought the game for the PC. And, it's easily IW's worst work.

    SP is short and MP is broken.

    I should have voted with my wallet and bought L4D2 instead.

    @balls187: Uh they aren't forcing you to play with a 360 controller on PC so you can't use the "being forced to use a mouse and keyboard" argument. The extra settings people are whining about are video settings from what I hear.

    While I loved the SP campaign of both MW and MW2, movie material it is now. =\

    I meant to say, "movie material it is not." Leaving the original unaltered for the sake of the first reply. lol

    They already made MW2 the movie. It was called The Rock. Complete with the shower room breach while being shot from above, the race to wave green flares on the roof at the last moment to avert an air strike, and scored by Hans Zimmer.

    I'd like the movie to be great, but these shots of Gyllenhal just look silly to me. Maybe it's the costume, maybe he's a poor fit for the character, or both.

    And yes I realize I'm judging a book by it's cover. #princeofpersiamovie

    I think this movie has the potential to outperform the Pirates movies from what I've seen so far, but I highly doubt it would happen because the movie is based on the game, and gamers sure as hell know about torrenting. #princeofpersiamovie

    I assume when they are talking about Pirates of the Caribbean, they are referring to the original movie that was based on an amusement park ride. Either way, I doubt there will be much mainstream attention given to the fact that this is based on a video game. It's just going to come down to how good the movie is. We'll see.

    I don't think it's all that ridiculous. Jake Gyllenhal got some acting cred in Brokeback Mountain and Jarhead, and I know people who saw Jarhead for the sole purpose of seeing him nude. Seeing him with his shirt off for an entire movie will be a big draw for that crowd. Obviously, there's no way that he is going to top Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow, but he could certainly top Orlando Bloom (not difficult). Hopefully there are some good supporting characters as well.

    Pirates of the Caribbean may actually help this movie because it has given Disney a good reputation in the genre. Before those movies, Disney live-action movies were pretty terrible. I think there many fans of the PoC movies will go see this. #princeofpersiamovie

    Game publishers are used to talking up a shit product. When I was in the industry, I once had to praise a steaming mound of crap to the press. It was a dirty feeling. Movies are really no different, though game publishers try a little harder to sell dog food, rather than simply canceling all preview screenings.

    The things is, we don't yet know where this movie lands in the Bloodrayne -- Super Mario Bros. spectrum of crap. It could even be medicore with a dash of promising, like Silent Hill (which was better than it had any right to be).

    If Yves Guillemot walked out of the PoP screening in disgust, he'd still be "anticipating" a 2.7 billion + windfall to the press. He's used to it.

    Jake Gyllenhaal looks lost and drunk in that photograph. #princeofpersiamovie
