10/10 casting
>>221017028Erm... yikes...Lara needs to be a TRUE strong female protagonist by constantly crying and telling herself, "I can do this! I can do this!" And don't forget giving her a mastectomy. Strong female protagonists aren't allowed to have breasts.
>>221017028those hair scar things are so stupid looking
>>221017028I wish we had gotten more Jolie Lara Croft films, both movies were great cheesy fun. I forget why Cradle of Life failed, I think it came out the same weekend as some really huge movies, but I saw in theaters and enjoyed the hell out of it.
>>221017028She kinda looks like Lisa Ann
it's so funny how dogshit modern movies are nowadays that you can go back to this movie, which gamers hated when it released, and see how it eclipses the stuff nowhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKPStzmn1h0compare it to the 2018 onehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cK-s7CfE4Ig
>>221017028She looks good but her hair strands are too deliberate. When you tie your hair back you don't want those strands, it just happens naturally when you're being active.
Jessica Biel as Erin in TCM03
>>221017028>>221017156She really was perfect.
>>221017244We really thought the 90s were going to continue forever
>>221017244She did a great job, but the writing for those movies was a fucking mess. Granted they're better than the 2018 one, but still a lot of squandered potential. There will never be as perfect of an actress for that role again.
>>221017302i prefer flatties
>>221017244Jolie Croft and the Tomb Raider games at the time were just meant to be dumb fun. They weren't trying to be "serious" or "empowering." They were this lost art we used to call "fun."Oh, I miss it, boys.
>>221017657The original Tomb Raider game is a masterpiece, way more than just dumb fun. The atmosphere of quiet loneliness and isolation, crawling through these caves and ruins solving puzzles, with nothing but occasional wolves and bears for company, phenomenal level design, it's one of the greatest video games ever made. The next 3 games were also excellent.The movies with Jolie are dumb fun, even if they completely miss the vibe/style of the games, and have more in common with say Perfect Dark.
>>221017028Robert Pattinson in Cosmopolis. Ian Mcshane in Deadwood.Gandalfinilini in Sopranos. I could go on, I'm such a cineaste!
>>221017244>a cup larawtf were they thinking
>>221017244I liked it back then too. Granted I was like 10.
>>221017244>>221018442I was a teenager and a big fan of the games and remember experiencing the nerd rage over it not being like the games.>THIS ISN'T TOMB RAIDER REEEEEEEEE THIS IS JUST A GENERIC ACTION MOVIEBut then I rewatched them on blu-ray over a decade later and loved them. Jolie is a perfect Lara and they are both really fun action movies. And the abysmal 2018 film based on the crappy nuLara trilogy only enhanced them further in my eyes. We didn't know how good we had it.
>>221017657This. It was just cheesecake, nothing more and nothing less. This overanalysis, especially of cheap pop culture, is pure midwittery
Elizabeth Hurley would've been a good Lara during the Legend, Anniversary, and Underworld era of the series. Her tits were too small for Lara, but I think that's forgivable.
>>221017657The games are way too hard to be dumb fun.
>>221017101
>>221018662Jolie's tits were also considered too small which is why she wore a padded bra.
>>221017302Big boobs are nice but small boobs are also nice. I can't quantify this statement but it's true nonetheless.
>>221017120Hair scars? You mean strands of hair? They are just a style and sometimes inadvertently occur if you are tomb raiding.
>>221017179Lisa Ann and her augmented breast never did it for me.
>>221017657The games while fun and action filled were incredibly difficult if you didnt think clearly and try to solve the puzzle before you. It would take hours to pass through a level the first time and then get stuck and then wander around in every level. Very intellectually stimulating for a kid and an adult. Tomb raider 2 is the best and 3 I would say is ridiculously hard in the first stage.
>>221018970She was okay in her early porn career, but true hagmaxxers, such as myself, preferred real milfs, like Magdalene St. Michaels.
>>221017798Its hard to replicate the time spent solving a puzzle and the fear when danger looms threatening to undo all tour progress.
>>221018602The dvd pause feature got worked overtime because of this scene. Bless you Jolie for sharing those baby feeders. Some dad's will cockblock you and switch to the company logo if you try to pause, fuck those cocksuckers!
>>221017028>>221017156I miss when I used to be able to beat off to a single image of a clothed womanI'm pretty sure I had the first fap of my entire life to one of these in a magazine
>>221018602>this was the one random blockbuster that had Arnold Rimmer in it>he didn't become a go-to Hollywood comic relief guy after that, lending charming memorable little scenes to every movie:(
>>221017028Those are some crazy vascular forearms.
>>221017028What is that, a scar?
>>221019118He came back for the sequel along with the gadget guy. Fun fact, he plays Hitler in a John Cusack movie and appears in vanilla sky.
>>221017028>flat as a board>playing LaraNah bro.
>>221019280>>flat as a boardIt's canon now, chud. AND she's a lesbian :)
>>221017798I remember renting it with a friend but we both were pretty disappointed and ended up playing twisted metal instead. Maybe it was a title that needed to be owned to be appreciated
>>221019497>AND she's a lesbian :)Ah, no wonder she's allowed to look feminine.
>>221019497If she's wearing a sports bra and she's still this stacked, she's still classic Lara. Just in proper support.
>>221017028
>>221019497Fixed
>>221019497MOMMY>>221019533not that anon but you have to really sit down and learn the controls in and out to start having fun with it. It's a lot more functional than people give it credit for nowadays but I can see how it's not very accessible for a platformer.
>>221018602she used to have such nice boobas, did she show them anywhere?
>>221022067The movie Gia. Very clear close shot of them.
>>221019497Just wait a bit and play it modded
>>221017028Stop posting on 4chan, Stuckmann! Shelby Oaks fucking sucked!
>>221019017My favourite was 1.2 was eh, too much action.3 was my first one so I never had the perception that it was extra difficult lol4 was good, but too repetitiveOverall great games and great character. A pity it's dead
>>221019497Looks indian and nothing like Lara>>221019829nuLara shitmiss me with that crap
>>221022098>Playing a demake>Playing a nuLara fused with Lara demake, of all thingslol no
>>221020259>>221019497Who Did this to Lara? a Generation Completely annihilated for faggotry an nobody is punished everyone just lets this Happen
>>221024152>Who Did this to Lara?
>>221017028Not thick enough.
>>221017179you're a faceblind retard
>>221024117Lara was never an epitome of whiteness
>>221024452Lara was always 100% white english woman, with a very specific look and face, chud.
>>221017028I refuse to be an apologist for these movies. They sucked balls.
>>221024117>>221024452>>221024540Anon, >the original CORE Design documents had her name as LARA CRUZ>from SOUTH AMERICA>After the name and nationality changed she still retained the same 3D model made for Cruz>She has dark hair, brown eyes with epicanthic folds, thick lips, and tan skin in all the CORE Design games>Rhona Mitra who was an official Lara model employed by CORE and Eidos for years (mocap, reference photos, advertisements, booth babe or mascot at events) is INDIAN (as if the name doesn't give it away)
>>221024152MOOOOOOD ANON POSTED A NSFW PIC!!!!!!
>>221024789>She has dark hair, brown eyes with epicanthic folds, thick lips, and tan skin in all the CORE Design gamesI can't believe I didn't see this sooner.>Rhona MitraWhatever happened to her? I used to fap to her scenes as the neighbor across the street that Kevin Bacon peeps on and eventually invisi-rapes. Then she did the Underworld movies. She was supposed to be the next big thing in the 2000's but faded away from the spotlight.
>>221024866>Whatever happened to her? I used to fap to her scenes as the neighbor across the street that Kevin Bacon peeps on and eventually invisi-rapes.oirite movie is Hollow Man
>>221024789>>dropped concept #531In what game that happens, retard?Name one game where that happens OR STFU
>>221024789>things that never happenedOh, it's the Laura Cruz meme-tardDismissed>>221024866>I can't believe I didn't see this sooner.Retard
>>221017028My sexual awakening.
>>221024789
>>221024789>Rhona MitraPajeeta Lara was peak
>>221025056no none at all zoomer, angelina mogs her and actually has the personality of Lara, which is why the tomb raider movie was so good and even Japan remember Lara Croft as Angelina
>>221019497
>>221025133Billions of times bettermiss me with that shitty indian nuLara
>>221025133That’s not Angelina Jolie.
>>221022067
>>221021289Fun game, even though the level design sucks compared to the original, it's far too linear, and the quicktime sequences are lame. They completely ruin the impact of the T-Rex scene by turning it into a dumb quicktime event. Still, it's the best Tomb Raider game that Crystal Dynamics has made thus far.
>>221025168it is, it's a game model based on her, this is another
>>221017657>Game companies and advertisers used to know who their primary audience is>Straight white dudesWe used to be a country...
Looks too much like her dad
>>221024963Based on this, Lara should basically look like prime Catherine Bell, who also happens to be British, so Catherine Bell
>>221025498>Since 2012, Bell has lived with fellow Scientologist, photographer and party planner Brooke DaniellsAh, so mentally ill.
>>221025538>be hot>go to hollywood>ride the cock carousel for 20 years>hit the wall at 40>heh, actually I'm a lesbianIs there a name for this fairly common phenomenon?
>>221018048Sweet Anita's body is fucking insane
>>221022081Too bad she's kinda fat in it. And a shit haircut.
>>221017028>not athletic enough>retarded lips>overrated>hips too narrow>2/10 would not bang>not Britishnot my Lara
>>221019533Well for one it's best played alone, not with friends. And you have to have patience, because it's an exploration puzzle solving platformer and not an action game. It's also way too hard of a game for anyone under 11-12 years old, it's for an older audience.
>>221018048for me it's
i had a bunch of these posters on my wall and would pretend i was her
>>221017028Ehh…
>>221025699patrician
>>221017028Not really, Lara in-games was a daughter of british aristocrat and had some posh-ness about her. Jolie looks like blow-up bimbo doll, too vulgar and commoner-looking. She didn't fit at all.
>>221025699She was the best option in the days when she did that, at peak of her popularity. An unknown would have been better, but at least she gave visibility to the project.And she did put a huge effort in the role
>>221017028Pic unrelated.
>>221017156Hell no, the second movie was atrocious.
>>221017028I dont remember her having huge tits, was it padding or does she really have that blessed genetics? t. geriatric millenial
>>221026702>She was the best optionidk, I think some British actresses could have been suitable. Kate Beckinsale for instance (pic rel in 2001), she had the right kind of face, so much better than Jolie.
>>221026773No it was a major improvement on the first, she does actual globetrotting and searching for relics, no retarded time travel plot, it's more like the games, has better action scenes, is better directed, has a better score, it's superior in every conceivable way.
>>221018048what in the fucking moons
>>221017028Great legs and great tits, sadly a butterface
>>221018602>Couldn't even show butt
The amount of pathetic homosexuals in this thread is astounding.
>>221026879Noboy cared about butts before the influx of africans
>>221026885install 4chan X and press F to make the thread kino
>>221024789>Rhona Mitra who was an official Lara model employed by CORE and Eidos for years (mocap, reference photos, advertisements, booth babe or mascot at events) is INDIAN (as if the name doesn't give it away)Rhona’s father had an almost white skin tone.He was a surgeon, and was likely, based on the Mitra surname, a Bengali kayastha, a Hindu caste that traditionally serve as Scribes, Record Keepers, Ministers, and Administrators, and who are considered “High Caste” and ranked similarly to the Brahmins. Also, Rhona Mitra’s mother was English.
>>221027175we don't hate jeets when they're hot
>>221027183>nuLara
>>221017028Everyone in that awful Hitchhikers Guide movie. The movie sucked, but the cast was tragically great.
>>221027183this is the set up of some of my source filmmaker kinos
>>221024789>discarded idea>unrelated shit>muh cosplayerSo Lara Croft was never anything other than clearly white, got itThanks for agreeing so easily
>>221027345>but the cast was tragically great.I don't remember Trilian being black haired and the black guy being black in the book
>>221027392Trillian was a brunette in the book, and not a dumb ditz like Sandra Dickinson. Mos Def had the alien bit down. Making him American made his bizarre behavior less suspicious to bongs.>but nigger nigger nigger!He nailed it.
>>221017028The real pity for Jolie that while on paper she's a 1-for-1 perfect match IRL, she still looks kinda short-legged and dumpy next to the vidya Lara Croft. It's an artist trick to give comic and vidya characters impossible larger-than-life physical proportions, and no I'm not even talking about her tits.Superheroic proportions in picrel, (eight and a half head heights tall), are not even close to any IRL human. Movies can shoot things in such a way as to fool your brain somewhat, and especially when it comes to dramatic angles and shots, but it's practically impossible to hide actual proportions in a full body shot, and that's where even Angelina falls short of the fictional Lara. I didn't think they did a particularly good job shooting her in those films either - even just dramatically speaking.Hard to get past, as well as it being a bit too self-aware in the wrong way, (gave me Billy Zane Phantom vibes).Best you're every going to get in a film adaption almost certainly, but major reasons it doesn't quite cut the mustard. At least they got the tits right - and that does go a long way to be fair.
Emily Ratajkowski literally has the perfect build for Lara Croft.
>>221027505I liked Alicia Vikander in NuRaider, and the movie was better.
>>221027543Lmao, she'd break in half if I sneezed on her. She's also paper bag worthy.
>>221027543I don't get it. Her face is average. Her belly button is disgusting. And her personality and charisma fucking repuslive. I get her if she was a random cumdumpster for NBA players when they're in town. But how she got to be a celebrity and be in media is mindboggling.
>>221027465>He nailed it.No, it's a blackwashBlackwashed tokens aren't characters to begin with
>>221027565>I liket the ugly boyish stick in doghsit reboot that is not TR and never will be, it was better
>>221027764This was 2005. They weren't blackwashing and tokenizing like that. It's amazing that /pol/acks are so against brown people being in movies when the majority of them post from Indonesia.
>>221027789>the level of typos made through tear filled eyes
>>221027635>>221027581She has a god tier body which is expected of Lara
>>221027811You leftards are still complaining about John Wayne's Gengis Khan, despite that flick being shit, a bomb, and half of the cast dying from cancerIf you didn't have double standards you wouldn't have standards at all

>>221027369finish your game animocuck
>>221024789>b-but what about pre-production bullshit and shit that never made it into the final game!!No one gives a fuck, shitskin. Shodan and Glados were men in the original design documents. Lee Everett was white in original pitch. Sonic the Hedgehog was a rabbit in early concepts. Claire Redfield was Elza Walker in the original demo for RE2. Etc etc.It means literally nothing. Now kill yourself. Your only representation is shitting in the streets and murdering and raping your own shitskin kin.
