It is certainly a possibility, but Prince of Persia the motion picture will not climb above easily. Pirates of the Caribbean has a very distinct advantage that often stands in the way of movies based on Video Games, it appeals to a family audience. My mom and her over 40 buddies never graduated from the NES if they even to an interest in games at all, they don’t know what Prince of Persia is. The fact that it is a video game based film won’t help the cause to them either, I can hear my mother now, ” I don’t want to see that, it is going to be silly!” What this film does have going for it is it’s star cast, these people are easily recognized. It also looks to be a very stand out picture in terms of graphics and visual presence. These elements will be what helps it to the top. I think a mistake they shouldn’t make is to over market it as a video game based movie. Those in the community already know what it is, they don’t need to be told twice, and if they keep that out of the equation they can possibly get a fallowing from another style of audience. We will see what happens, either way I am super excited to see this and I am behind it all the way.
