Trailer for the next Tomb Raider movie is available over at [apple.com](http://apple.com)

Who the hell is this sidekick person? He seemed to be teamed up with Lara for about half the trailer, that better not be representative in the movie. And that snog better also be one hell of a red herring :pout:

Anyone else got thoughts or looking forward to the movie?

Umm… I’m really looking forward to the Matrix, X-men 2 and Lord of the Rings. 🙂

I didn’t see the first TR, and after seeing the trailer I certainly don’t plan on seeing the second.

Ooooh man, I saw the first _Tomb Raider_ movie, and thought it was abysmal. I fully expect to do the exact same thing with this one. I feel a certain fascination with and obligation to films based on video games, even if I’ve never played them. 🙂
