Orientalism in Film

The poster for the upcoming movie "The Kingdom" says a lot about our perception of the Arab/Muslim world, as I Watch Stuff! has noticed.

I don't know about this film but I am guessing from the poster that it is about the ultimate confrontation - the American GIs versus the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Orientalism reproduced!
