My, what throbbing abs you have, Mr. Gyllenhaal! You know, for a guy who starred in at least two films off of our tops of the aughts lists, a video game movie seems a lot like settling for a paycheck. Sure it starts off innocently, just one shitty film in order to keep the forty-seven bedroom estate that has been in the family for years (two to be exact), but it’s never enough. And before you know it, you’re shooting heroin to dull the ache in your heart as you film Brokeback II with two midgets in a sweaty little condo up in the Valley.

So the all powerful Bruckmeister has released a two minute long behind the scenes featurette for Prince of Persia. And by “behind the scenes,” they actually just mean random footage of Jake Gyllenhaal in costume while he struts and jumps purposefully from rooftop to rooftop. But in case you only read last sentences and not first sentences: abs.
