Nothin Favourite Manga Nothin	Yet to watch, cuz was so caught-up with symposium & datelines. Also, Ready Player One was the one I initially wanted to watch I think judging from reviews (RT) & trailers released thus far, I think its a decent film. Its bashed by critics/gamers, but as ordinary audience, its decent

I don't really like how they've kinda just copied the first game of the reboot however, I'd have been interested in watching it if it had a completely fresh story and ideas. Also 0/10, no Angelina Jolie sideboob. Tomb Raider was like a holy grail when you were 11 and didn't yet know how to use the internet.

They only took a few details from the game, it has its own story still.

I really appreciate the first half of the movie. It took deliberate time setting up Lara Croft, getting backstory and having her arrive on the Island. This was all good stuff and I was enjoying watching her character get into Tomb Raider mode. Once it came time for the actual raiding to begin, things fell flat. The movie took a realistic approach to the idea of these ancient tombs, and they tried to keep it in the real world, but that just didn't work. It's like the filmmakers were afraid to bring in the supernatural elements even when the story called for them.

Jesus, when you're making a video game movie you decide to remove the fantasy side of it? AND THE BOOBS Heresy of the highest echelon. I'm guessing that was an attempt to appeal to the masses 'cause what if they don't "Get" the gamey stuff. Even though the most popular movie series in the entire world right now is about a bunch of people with super powers, aliens and big green, blue and purple dudes. Pretty sure audiences can handle some supernatural stuff

Taking away anything mystical or awe inspiring about the location undercut any real impact her journey had. It really just fell completely flat once that aspect became the focus.
