This is something I found straight outta my hard drive
 
yo yo @This Is Hard To Do (Invisible Crane), your thoughts on the new Tomb Raider games and the 2018 Vikander movie? Are we a bunch of "sexists" or "misogynist" for not liking them?
 

So there's apparently a Tomb Raider slot machine for Canadian casinos. My question is why and how?
 
As a lad in the 90's I enjoyed some official CG enders of Lara that showed off her polygonal assets in various environments. Anybody know if those are archived? Nobody probably even knows what I'm talking about lmao

Either archive.org or various Tomb Raider fansites.

How in the fuck does Tomb Raider keep getting games? The first "I hate tombs" raider game was outright stated to be a sales disappointment and I was under the impression that the other two only happened because xbox got involved.

It's a mystery as to why devs keep making these games other than the complete obvious shade of green. Money.

Let's be real, the franchise died after the 2000s. Squeenix really fucked it (and Thief) over once they purchased Eidos/Crystal IPs, and considering Embracer purchased them from Squeenix, it's doubtful that the IPs will ever survive other than just the name branding, and fans will keep defending it and keep consooming until the milk runs dry.

For christ's sake, Amazon and Netflix are both pushing it to become "le next Marvel," but it's going to flop spectacularly. Let the franchise die and go the same way as the likes of Earthworm Jim.
 
Here's something I found
 
They keep focusing on Tomb Raider because Lara Croft is seen as the "first lady" of video games because pathetic nerds obsessed over her in the late 90s. (no, you don't need to tell me she wasn't, we all know that)

So basically it's a female empowerment thing or something.
 
A reminder that the 2018 Vikander bullshit nuboot movie is five years old. Press S to spit on that and her career.
