    "The franchise started to lose steam after the second pic..."


    Was there a third Tomb Raider film I'm not aware of that makes you say that, Meredith?


    OMG DO THEY HAVE FIREFLY SEASON TWO IN YOUR DIMENSION?!

    It never had any steam. Went from crap to crappier.

    Then again I think Jolie is probably one of the most overrated actresses ever, so I wasn't predisposed.

    How bout we put Megan and Angelina in a ring together and simply have them fight it out - having nothing at all to do with Tomb Raider of course.

    The way you frame a lot of these posts is pretty fucking shameless. The Truth About Megan Fox as the Next Lara Croft is that there isn't any? That's the story?

    @lukeoneil47: The point is all day there have been rumors across the entertainment sites about this story or rumor. We were the first to get actual confirmation. We didn't just post the rumor we got the answer. That's why we framed it that way. We could have said lara croft? but we try and get you guys the truth, sometimes that's impossible, sometimes it's not.

    Well, I'm not complaining about the pictures of Megan Fox.


    And Meredith, I was probably just cranky when I responded. Don't post while in a bad mood, kids.

    Seeing as how the last Tomb Raider game sold beneath expectations, I'd consider the franchise pretty much dormant at this point.

    In reply to The Truth About Megan Fox As The Next Lara Croft
    Meh.. Angelina is over rated. She's far too thin for the role, even when she wasn't as thin as she is now. Did you see her in Wanted?!? my god, a stiff breeze would knock her over.


    Lara needs to be played by someone with an actual figure and could pull off the look of someone that is athletic. I don't know if Megan Fox fits that bill or not, but maybe they should take a look at some of the models that are hired to be the official 'Lara' for the game promotion. They at least have the build for the role, and their acting skills have to be at least as good as Fox's (which isn't saying much).

    Nobody's dumb enough to leap full bore onto a dead franchise that was kind of cruddy when it was alive.

    Yeah, it was weak, but I will go out on a limb here and say that she is kind of attractive.


    I can see her in the role of Lara though. Is there any thought that the PR chick that showed us her underworld is capable of playing the part in a movie?
