Who would you prefer to see cast as: The New Lara Croft

Re: Casting Thread

(Anonymous) 2014-01-15 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
An unknown actress/athlete talent.

Don't care as long as she doesn't have massive tits and a tiny waist. I'd prefer if she looked like an actual archaeologist and not a fucking pornstar or a supermodel.

What does an "actual archaeologist" look like? Is there some sort of big-boob/tiny waist disqualifier?

Re: Casting Thread

(Anonymous) 2014-01-15 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
NA

If you look like you've just walked off a catwalk or a photo-shoot, you do not look like a real archaeologist. Look up the "Fighting Fucktoy" for more info.

Fighting Fucktoy indeed.

Eeeeeexcpt he clearly looks like he's been in a fight. he has cuts, bruises, and grime on his face and he looks like he's been through it.

Also his clothing damage is designed to show off his strength and power, not to titillate. Don't get me wrong it can titillate, but it's not the reason for it.

So basically your issue is more with her outfit/presentation than her body type?

Re: Casting Thread

(Anonymous) 2014-01-15 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not the OP but I really do have a problem that there is only 1 body type that's allowed to be, and everyone from strippers to astrophysicists have the same giant boob tiny waste problem.

Michelle Rodriguez.

Re: Casting Thread

Hmm, I hadn't thought of that, but I like it!

Re: Casting Thread

No, because if the film is good I'd want a sequel and you just can't do that if you kill off Lara.

You ruined ayrt's excellent image of Lara Rodriguez with your logic gdi.
Why do you have to be so right.

Yessssssssssssss. It makes me sad that this will never happen.

Queen Latifah.

You have just blown my mind. And now I yearn for something that will never be. Curse you!

Re: Casting Thread

(Anonymous) 2014-01-15 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
No. Has to be someone that can act.

BUT

I do think having an larger woman play lara croft would do wonders to repair some of the damage she's done to girls.

Re: Casting Thread

(Anonymous) 2014-01-15 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
What damage?

Re: Casting Thread

(Anonymous) 2014-01-15 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
forcing unrealistic body types on young girls for a start. there's whole other issues with objectification etc.

Re: Casting Thread

(Anonymous) 2014-01-15 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
Dude suck my cock, my friends and I (all girls) all loved playing Tomb Raider when we were kids and we'd all pretend to be Lara 'cause she was awesome and smart and took no shit, and all of our self-images are just fine. Quit projecting.

Lara Croft is hell atheltic. She needs to be played by an athletic person.

Queen Latifa just couldn't do the things we expect Laura Croft to be able to do. New Laura or old Laura.

It'd do absoutely nothing to repair anything because the audience of people who like Laura Croft won't go to see it, and the new audience will have trouble with suspension of disbelief.

You want a black Croft? Fine. But she needs to be less Queen Latifah (who is hella fine I might add) and more Gabby Douglas


Re: And I think your an idiot

(Anonymous) 2014-01-15 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
She get's points for the normal sized boobs, but we're going for another fucking beanpole?! Again? Large women can't be athletic? Only twigs can do a backflip? fuck off. Also it's the fucking movies Angelina Jolie didn't have enough muscle to lift a medium sized sandwich IRL, but that didn't stop her playing croft, did it?

I think gymnast type would be about right.

Late 80s / early 90s Geena Davis

TBH that's more or less my default suggestion for most female action heroes. <3 Geena Davis

LARA, PEOPLE. LARA LARA LARA

There is no "u."

And she should be played by Amy Adams.













Okay, no, not really. Jennifer Lawrence.
