I’ve added DVD screencaptures from the Prince of Persia poster that can be seen during a scene of Confessions of a Shopaholic. It’s when Isla Fisher is riding in a taxi in Times Square and the camera pans over two posters: G-Force and Prince of Persia. The three of them are Bruckheimer productions.

(It’s a quick poll, you can skip categories if you don’t want to vote in them.)

Screen goddess Gemma Arterton shows off her classical good looks — on a break from filming Greek epic Clash Of The Titans.

The ex-Bond girl, 23, looked heavenly as she stripped down to a skimpy bikini. She was lounging by a hotel pool in the Canary Islands on a day off from the movie — a remake of the 1981 classic.

An onlooker said: “Gemma’s bikini didn’t seem to be giving her a lot of support.”

Luckily, she managed to avoid a Greek tragedy.

RISING star Gemma Arterton is reported to have landed one of cinema’s greatest romantic roles, writes LESLEY-ANN JONES.

She is said to have been cast as Cathy Earnshaw in a big screen remake of Emily Bronte’s novel Wuthering Heights, a part made famous in the 1939 version by screen siren Merle Oberon.

Gemma, 23, whose screen credits have ranged from special agent Strawberry Fields in the latest James Bond film Quantum of Solace to head girl Kelly in St Trinian’s, taking in that other tragic heroine Tess of the D’Urbervilles for television along the way, is said to have beaten Sienna Miller for the part.
