    Hmm...interesting. I can see Kingsley playing the villain but I'm still not agreeing with the Jake bit. I guess you never know...It is good to see that the script is completely different from the games. Most people don't understand that it would ruin the mystique of these hit games if they adapted the whole story (from the games) into a live-action featured film. Still, knowing it's Disney and the fact how dark PoP is...ugh. It's frustrating. Universal would have been nice or perhaps WB?
