Yesterday we got posters of Jake Gyllenhaal as Prince Dastan and Gemma Arterton as Tamina, now it’s time for us to see the face of the bad guy in the form of Sir Ben Kingsley. In Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Kingsley plays Nizam, the brother of King Shahrman of Persia, who he kills and, like the evil son of a moose he is, puts the blame on Dastan. Nizam then claims the throne of Persia and, in order to achieve immortality and power, he seeks the Sands of Time to eventually take over the world.

From UGO:

    Anyone watch the Blu-Ray of “Gandhi?” Looks awesome but the dialogue channel seemed woefully low in volume, to the point it seemed disconnected from the rest of the movie. I tried using “midnight mode” to compress the highs and low–no effect. I raised and lowered the volume due to this in a crazy range that basically doubled the volume for speech scenes. Not buying the movie based on this alone.
