Tomb Raider: A Netflix Original Anonymous 10/13/2024 (Sun) 18:22:00 Id: 04537b No. 1027123
Introducing Netflix's take on the Tomb Raider series, starring the lovely Lara Croft! Sarcastic header over. I did watch this schlock so you didn't have to. It wasn't very good. Lara in particular struggled to land, because it's like they erased all her character development from the entire reboot series. By the end of the first game (let alone second or third) she went from a fearful girl into a ruthless fucking murderess. Then in this series she's crying and having panic attacks twice an episode while needing to talk about her feelings all the time. Same for Croft manor. End of the series, it was restored and she was living there with it as her base in the last scene. Cartoon? It's a ruin. Still. It's fucking weird and tonally a whiplash, and the animation isn't good enough to gloss over it (and the characters are collectively ugly, the designs are terrible). I can't work out who this cartoon was supposed to be made for. It wasn't for fans of the reboot series, since it ignores character development she had there, and it certainly wasn't for fans of old Lara (or "real Lara"). So who the fuck is the audience? All that and I didn't even get into the whitewashing of Chinese history (Daji is not fucking misunderstood), including that ludicrous "secret Alexandria archive" in China funded by the government that "restores artifacts to their rightful owners unlike the British Museum". How much did China pay Netflix to include that? I'd like to know. Anyways, use this thread to discuss Tomb Raider as well as the new show

>>1029140 Then who is this guy? Prove it or it's actually that hard.

>>1027123 Here's a bit of an update: Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft didn't break into the Top 10 TV Shows on Netflix during its release week. For the week of October 7th-13th, #10 on the chart had 1.8 million views. The Tomb Raider series premiered on the 10th, so even after 3 days, its views stayed below 1.8 million. https://archive.md/2xodK This isn't because the other shows released earlier and had an advantage. On the most recent chart, which shows October 14th-20th, Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft is still missing from the Top 10. #10 on the list has 2 million views, which means that even after being out for almost two weeks, the show still hasn't generated at least 2 million views. https://archive.md/PLHWw
>>1031888 >The Amazing Digital Circus on the number 5 spot That is actually quite impressive.

>>1031890 The Japanese are going stir-crazy for Digital Circus, which is unusual since they usually steer clear of (western) queers. I guess it is hitting the same niche as Undertale did, and Homestuck before that.
>>1031895 >last pic >turning her human COWARDS
>>1031901 >her I guess the VA is, character is probably a male tranny though.
>>1031890 >>1031895 >The disillusioned Glitchfaggots. Those are low numbers shill.
>>1031890 Considering how many shows there are on Netflix, and how many of the customers probably aren't the target audience of the show, it is pretty impressive indeed. >>1031895 The show is quirky, but not enough to put most people off immediately at least I think so, I'm never going to actually watch it. And there is a cute factor, especially with Pomni. Quirky and cute sells big in Japan and it's easy to make merch for. All those plushies and pieces of plastic will rake in a lot of money. Funny thing is, if you look at the Top 10 most popular shows on Netflix in Japan, Digital Circus isn't on there. >I guess it is hitting the same niche as Undertale did, and Homestuck before that. Japan likely has a large demographic of teenagers who don't necesarily like "mainstream" entertainment, and thus gravitate to series like the ones you mentioned, just like in the west. >>1031908 Apparently she's "nonbinary." Seems like the creators of the show have confirmed that the character she voices is too. It's fitting that the character who is canonically nonbinary seems to be an amalgamation of nonsensical parts. Doesn't really convey the message they thought it would.
>>1031937 >Seems like the creators of the show have confirmed that the character she voices is too. Archive?
>>1031938 Here. The creator of the series got a couple of questions regarding the character's gender and answered them on tumblr. >The subtitles say "he'll" but the script says "they'll" so I think that was just an error on the subtitler's part. That being said, I think Zooble's pretty alright with any pronouns. https://archive.md/yh0nQ >Also is zooble agender? >Zooble is Zooble. https://archive.md/jRJ67
>>1031908 Pretty sure the creator of the show Gooseworx is a tranny itself.

>>1031888 >Unsolved Mysteries, a show from 19-fucking-93 got more viewership than the "hot new" Tomb Raider show. Holy shit, what's next, is Season 2 going to lose out to ALF?

>>1031895 My best guess is the flashy and colorful artstyle, same with RWBY despite its obvious poz. >Homestuck Homestuck was fucking popular to the point of oversaturating Pixiv's algorithm? >>1031914 >Neo-Elsagate Productions <Using bots to show that indie shit remains popular because their crayon eating audience is a minority That is so anti-semitic, bruh >>1031947 <OOPS IT'S ALL TRANNIES Not to mention the shitty Gmod videos that put Glitch productions in the map are such cancer, even more cancerous than Skibidi Toilet because they have the brilliant idea of producing "touching and provoking" moments with half-assed animation.
>>1031962 With how these animated series are usually produced, Season 2 is probably already made, or very close to being done. The odds that we may see ALF beat out Tomb Raider are high. What a world we live in.
>>1031888 Another tiny update: the most recent list of Top 10 TV Shows on Netflix has been released. And to no ones surprise, the Tomb Raider series is not a part of it. The show has been out for over 17 days now, but it was still unable to garner over 2.2 million views this past week and get into at least the 10th spot. It was clear as day before we even saw the first episode that this show would be a total failure, but now there is data to show it, and from Netflix themselves no less. https://archive.md/IPsdm
>>1032045 I hear Homestuck in its heyday was so malignant it inadvertantly killed that Webcomic project Bandai-Namco was running (Shiftylook) to revitalize old series like Wonder Momo, Klonoa, and Bravoman because they hired Hussie to add Trolls as guest characters in a browser VN called Namco High that caused the site to get so many visitors it crashed only for those visitors to leave the moment they got what they wanted, convincing the execs that the site had no growth potential because it couldn't retain that pop without understanding why the pop happened (because nip boomers are retarded)
>>1032923 They literally had a strong female woman that everybody loved and they butchered her into a simpering weakling so they could "subvert expectations" and punish the "chuds" who liked her for the wrong reasons. They have no standards. At all.
>>1031888 >>1032923 I've never even heard of any of these shows except for Circus, this show's publicity is purely from the IP and it being another woke failure, if it wasn't for the Tomb Raider name and the show were instead a new IP it would've been forgotten within half a day.
>>1032980 > its heyday was so malignant Must be the first instance Nips saw their tumblr scam Homestuck fags were notorious for using spam bots.

>>1032045 No amounts of gore will disgust me compared to the tumblrina dykes dressed up as the retarded homosuck characters spitting in a cup and then drinking it, truly a great example on how mentally stable they are.
>>1034920 The sex was great
>>1034949 The proceeding court action not so much.
>>1033015 Only one I've heard of is The Lincoln Lawyer. It's a Bosch spinoff that can't actually say it's a Bosch spinoff because the author's two book series have been licensed by different streaming services.
>>1036952 Parents watch both shows, they are pretty good from what I have seen.
Ah yes, the sequel to legend of korra

>>1037077 Legend of Lara?
>>1037099 Literally faggy too, isn't Korra a brown gay?
