Great. More


Maybe the impending writers strike will prevent this from happening.

Wouldn't a Tomb Raider show be MORE expensive than doing another movie? It seems like they're making it a show because Last of Us is a massive hit.

Ehhh - not really. That movie tried hard but didnt work for me. Its about the same in quality as the Jolie film. Both were quite forgettable, IMO.

So, lets try a TV show. Why not. Third times a charm, right?

Amazon Games recently announced a partnership with Crystal Dynamics to publish the next game worldwide so this makes sense, probably a package deal.

I can already see the bad audience Reviews on Rotton Tomatoes in front of my Eyes, because people want to see a second movie with Vikander (I loved the first movie with her) and they hate Amazon.

Well I will give it a chance.

I'd like to say it can't be any worse than the last movie, but with the world's most over-hyped writer in charge, I don't hold out much hope.

Last year, I suggested in jest Lashana Lynch with Phoebe writing the script. Modern entertainment is very predictable.

Sophie Turner is too beaky for Lara Croft.

The people in charge of the Tomb Raider IP made a catastrophic mistake not getting Hayley Atwell involved
while she was still young enough to play Lara on the big/small screen. Some voice in a crappy cartoon doesn't count.

Also, if you ever wondered what would happen if Lara Croft came to life and made an album with
the bloke from The Eurythmics, here you go...


The comments are turned off for a reason.
