The Official Tomb Raider Grieving Thread - Including the sad, pathetic 2010s trilogy.

[TVB]

Double posting here. Today is the 20th anniversary of what almost killed the series.

In one month, the second and final Jolie movie will also be 20 years old.

Sadly, the writers strike has not killed the Amazon TV series as it's still happening. While promoting the new Indiana Jones movie, Pheobe Waller-Bridge said that it's still happening and calling it "dangerous" and "exciting."

God help us all.

On the plus side, the Lara Croft collection is available on the Switch

And I seriously can't be the only person to look for headline news here. Someone needs to tap in for me. I'm like the only person whose keeping this thread alive somehow.

Was there talk about tomb raider reloaded?

It makes me feel... weird.

I did enjoy the tomb raider running game which was in classic style on my previous phone. I wonder if it's still alive...

It was mentioned in a few pages ago. I'm indifferent with mobile games honestly.

If there's no body pillow with classic Lara then I'm rioting.

No no, science has proven the optimal body types for men. (it is facial types that have more variety)

And classic Laura fits it spot on.

Classic Lara will always have the perfect fit. Even the 2001 Jolie movie followed it correctly.

The director and cinematographer knew exactly what they were doing

Ben Wheatley explained why the sequel to the 2018 movie never got made (and thank god it never will).

https://www.gamesradar.com/ben-wheatley-tomb-raider-sequel-canceled-exclusive/

But it's just completely myopic explaining. In any rate, thank god he moved on the make Meg 2. And speaking of, more storyboards revealed and it still looks like shit.

In other news, Hayley Atwell speaks her thoughts on her role as Lara Croft in the upcoming Netflix anime.

I started replaying TR1. It has to be nostalgia or something but no game has been able to live up to the level design and sense of adventure like TR1/TR2 has for me. Maybe the grid/block system just helps guide me naturally to places to go while keeping in with the aesthetic when modern games slap on white/yellow paint...?

Should try TR3 and TR4 to see if it is just nostalgia I guess, never played those on release.

 

[SSj_Ness (Yiffed)]

Netflix, ugh. Otherwise that might be neat.

 

[The Last Stand]

If they ever make another Tomb Raider installment, I would love an aftermath story that has Lara Croft retire before one last big job. 60 year old Lara Croft would be a massive sendoff showcasing her archeologist knowledge and flexibility for another generation.

I hate how they're calling it a TR Anime when it has nothing to do with Japland and is made by a bunch of Americans. However outside of that it does look a little interesting to me so I might pay some attention to it. I can't wait to see how they let me down.
