Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Crowning Moment of Awesome: If you played the games, you'll cheer every time Dastan pulls a stunt lifted from them (there's even a brief wall run). They also managed to make such stunts look not too unrealistic most of the time.
    • Crowning Moment of Awesome also goes to Jake Gyllenhaal- who learned parkour to help him prepare for this role.
    • Seso's knife-fight (which has been described as a "gunfight with knives") with the Hassansin in the Dagger of Time's chamber is probably the most widely-agreed-upon CMOA for the movie.
  • Most of the one-on-one duels in the 2008 game will have The Prince just utterly overpowering his opponents at some point in the fight. Keep in mind that these are all dark-empowered Badass Abnormal mystic beings that are much larger than the Prince himself. One of the better ones involves the Prince headbutting the Mourning King into submission. The Mourning King is an seven foot tall fully and heavily armored knight with an especially ornate and imposing helmet.
  • Crowning Music of Awesome: The trailer music - "Blade Blade (or Black Blade)" by Two Steps From Hell.
  • Tamina, useing the Hassansin leaders' own pet snake to give hin a Family-Unfriendly Death — by forcing it to bite him in the eye!
