   Have any of you seen the new Tomb Raider movie?
  Well? Any good? Or does it suck as much as the new game?   -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-"Yeah, I would''ve killed you, but I''m glad I didn''t - the paperwork is a bitch"  
  Really, I had high hopes for Angel of Darkness.The movie is not even out here in down under. We''re behind in movies generally. Hell, pirates of the carribean isn''t out yet! ;quote:Original post by Cypher AeReally, I had high hopes for Angel of Darkness. Yeah me too. Boy that was not money well spent! The graphics are great, and the animations of Lara are nothing but superb. But she controls like a boat! What an unresponsive game. Totally unplayable. I'm still hoping for a big-ass patch which makes her easier to control. Fingers crossed.The movies isn't out here in DK yet. It opens next week or the week after that and I'm still deciding whether to get tickets for premiere. I probably will after all....you know the Jolie effect.

What an unresponsive game. Totally unplayable. That is one problem I''ve heard with this game.  Although its pretty cool, for some reason, they changed Laura''s controls.  I''m going to assume to make it more realistic.Now instead of being able to jump 10-15 feet from a standing position, Laura now has to get a running start. :/As long as you are the kind of person that can micromanage running-to-jumping, then you''ll like this game.  Its also pretty popular with people who have never played tomb radier, since they don''t know about the original controls. ;  Tomb Raider sucks rancid donkey balls. The games sucked. The film sucks. Logic suggests that "The cradle of life" will suck / blow / flop or any other penis related action. ;  I only liked the first game. As soon as they started pitting Lara against humans rather than animals, the gaping flaws in the control system became readily apparent. ;  I saw the movie yesterday and thought it was entertaining, but I liked the 1st movie better.In the 1st movie, you didn''t really think Lara was let go for no reason.  She was either able to get away via skills or via leverage.  In this new movie, there are times when they let her live and I never really understood why when they were so quick to kill others.It has plenty of action and stunts and humor.  Just don''t expect it to be deep and meaningful. ;  I think the new Tomb Raider movie, along with the first one werent that bad. I havent had the chance to play the new game yet, but im not looking foward to it, because after Tomb Raider 2, the series went downhill. ;quote:Original post by 5010  In this new movie, there are times when they let her live and I never really understood why when they were so quick to kill others. There are only three types of people1) You2) Pedestrian3) Enemy.Shoot the Enemy and ''try'' not to shoot the pedestrian.Just because the first movie sucked does not mean the second will.  For example, XMen 2 was MUCH better than the first.  I also like Charlie''s Angles 2 better also.So far it looks like the people who actually saw the second movie have liked it, or thought it was better than the first.  I don''t think the game made the sells less, but just the first movie.;  Well, they aren''t supposed to be ''good'' movies.Angelina Jolie is damn fun to watch though.
