Second Tomb Raider wasn't the best script, but look at it again and note what a
good *spy* movie was lurking at its core. I've said since then, Jolie should be
setup to be the female answer to Bond. Although I tire of overexposed actors,
she's good enough for that track, but you're right,
Just wanna say that Jolie's British accent annoys me to no end. First time
was interesting, but now, enough is enough. Jolie is really good as the
exotic girl with guns, but Bond is more than a guy with toys and cars.
Well, the Bond BOOKS anyway.

The flop of Tomb Raider 2 was what cause Halle Berry's James Bonb spin
off to get cancelled. And the reason why we won't see a Tomb Raider 3
anytime soon. They spend $118m on TR2 and barely made a profit off the
movie.

True, it wasn't a very good movie, would have worked best as a spy film. Jolie

The real reason behind the flop of Tomb Raider 2 was that the game
franchise was irrelevant by the time they released the movie. It would be
like releasing a Pitfall! movie now. Now is the time for a HALO series

I agree Garner wasn't the best and the woman on Angel would have been
perfect, but with them writing it like a TV movie, they really destroyed its
chances - more than the casting.I thought Tomb Raider II was better than
Tomb Raider I, but I still think it could have been a stronger franchise
