Surely it can't be difficult to make a tomb raider movie?
>>214316523It's not, the real question is do execs want to make one?
??? it's not they made like 3 already with ease.i don't get what your saying
>>214316562OP just wants them to spend 300 million dollars on the movie HE wants to see and will be a complete commercial flop because he's a fucking idiot.
>>214316523It felt like 3/4 of a tomb raider movie. They spent a long time on her deciding to follow in her father's footsteps, then once she arrived at the island they pretty much rush underground after like three scenes. Should've been a bit more tomb raider investigation times or island survival and less Hollywood "what's the emotional core of the character" or "she isn't ready but trouble showed up at her doorstep anyway!!"Angelina Jolie killed a robot, went to Tibet, and had a great shower scene when she barely knew what the illuminati were up to. Then she went to Bavaria, the jungle, and Antarctica. Then she redeemed 007 and killed more-handsome-Alan Rickman-guy. Then she fucking time traveled.Alicia Vikander hung out in London, then caught a boat to the island where she was captured then not and easily solved a puzzle then interacted with a plague. And there was some chasing and a bit of rough housing in between.
I hate it when a movie is about a well known character and you just assume it's about the character doing his character things, but NO it's about the character being not THE character yet and having to become it over the course of the movie.
>>214316815And hell, even for those who aren't familiar with an established character there is still usually no need for a drawn out character introduction sequence. A franchise like Tomb Raider especially; even if you found someone with no knowledge of the franchise, starting with Laura raiding some ancient tombs would make perfect sense to anyone who can read the damn title.
>>214316523To be fair, it would be hard to make a good one if they're easily offended
>>214316523I want a Tomb Rider movie where Lara is played by Eva Green.
>>214316523Don't call me surely
>>214316523I dunno, I think that one with Alicia-chan was okay. She's a cute flattie. I don't care about Lara Croft having big tits.
>>214316523Would making her look right automatically mean a good movie?
>>214317984It would make it watchable
>>214316815It's because they're made by hacks. The intro to Raiders tells you everything you need to know about Indiana Jones, you don't need an hour of the movie showing him becoming Indiana Jones. Yet the hacks making adaptations like this don't get that.
>>214316523How would you film the scenes of her having sex with horses and other animals/monsters?
>>214317976If the character doesn't have big tits, then it's not fucking Lara Croft.
>>214316523the difficulty is making a female action character that men can believe and women care about. the story of a person collecting treasure and travelling is easy. a female rich white character is harder to make people care about.
>>214316523I liked this one.>b-but her boobiesI'm not an incel, so I don't care.
>>214317867That would have been OK when she did Casino Royale. She’s too old really to play Lara even if she’s still pretty.
Wasn't the first Angelina Jolie movie good? It had shootouts and magic shit and exotic locales and Jolie's SFX enhanced boobs looked nice.
>>214319009They could have atleast shown us her "fucking dudes around the world" trip that was talked about in the game that this movie was based off and show how much of a party slut she can be
>>214316523I thought this was good.
>>214318196Raiders is so good.
>>214319009>Small boobsThey might as well have race swapped her. Same thing.
The problem with Tomb Raider is retarded british people treat the series like a prestigious series when it's about a big breasted woman getting into retarded action scenes and because of such you attracted the worst people to it
>>214320483>british people treat the series like a prestigious seriesWhen did that happen?
>>214320500British youtubers and movie critics do it all the time
>>214316815Like the Halo TV show except it's both the character and the setting
12 plus years later and people still don't like survivor Lara
>>214320503I don't doubt you. Sounds hilarious as fuck.
>>214316815Surf Dracula
>>214316523 They do this shit deliberately with malicious intent so they can call you Chuds and Incels when they hire some morbidly obese black tranny like Lizzo because it's mostly women behind most of this culture war bullshit with the intent of making everyone as miserable as they are because they're narcissistic sociopaths with the minds of children by nature who never emotionally develop beyond grade school while I'm still mad we didn't get a Tomb Raider movie circa 2002 starring Kelly Brook and Directed by Paul Verhoeven!!!FACT!!!
>>214320536jesus fucking christ
>>214316523>Surely it can't be difficult to make a tomb raider movie?It’s not. Make the main character a big-tittied femme fatale and a bad person. She robs tombs. She steals history for profit. Easy.
>>214319009Kys
>>214320483There was a short span of time in the late 90s when Lara was an immensely huge British cultural icon comparable to James Bond or Big Ben.
>>214320536Why would you want or need to relate to a character?
>>214320947Not so much for profit. For her own private collection and similar purposes, mostly.
>>214316815I think Batman Begins made it work and since then they are trying to replicate that.
>>214316815They do this because they are trying to start a multi-movie franchise, and they think that starting with origin story is how to do that.
why not just make her an obese girlboss along with the equally obese villians/side characters all struggling to catch their breathes amid the wacky plot involving obesity as the entire planet implodes?
>>214321508
>>214321191Fucking Brits, man.
>>214316523with actresses brainwashed to cut own tits?
>>214316523No it's not hard.>Take Indiana Jones fan film>Add hot female with big titsIt's genuinely, literally that easy.You could just sign Sydney Sweeney and some B list writers and director and tell them to read some adventure books, watch some playthroughs and study Indiana Jones slop and have a hit.
>>214320212this bitch shudv been an easy lock for vidya game movies
>>214316815She doesn't even grow big tits in it. Total failure.
>>214320645>ugly fat women are behind the culture war
>>214321217idiots cants treat it like just another job and proceed with cold detachment
>>214321241because every fucking Batman director needs to get influenced by Batman Year One and TDKR
>>214316523even a TV knockoff did it better
>>214321217This is what I don't understand with modern writers, directors and audience. Because I don't need to relate to any character as long as the show or game is entertaining.
>>214321191>>214321737Video games were a new medium, it was exciting. You wouldn’t get it zoomer.
>>214320392hollywood is always about subversioncast black actors for white charactersugly actors for pretty characterspretty actors for ugly charactersetc
>>214316523They can never make it past the casting, though.
>>214324898Which is bizarre. Sydney Sweeney is RIGHT THERE. Why do they need to make everything more complicated than it needs to be.
>>214316815>Lara Croft>character
they already nailed it with the angelina jolie ones
>>214316815This is why I dislike series pilots and anything like them. No, I don't need to know what the characters lives were like before anything relevant started happening, just get on with it. At least sequels don't have this problem, you don't need to explain who John Wick is when you're at John Wick 5.
>>214320536Why is her face so sexo and where can I see more of her?
>>214316523>>214322377Even a kid's movie out-Tomb Raider's Tomb Raider.
