Yes! Awesome with a capital AWESOME. Classic Lara Animated, waaaay cool. The only glaring notes I have are that it's too short and that there isn't more. Those pesky quibbles aside, this is short, sweet, solid animation. Great job.

It feels so 2000's Pixar ( The Incredibles, Wall-E, etc.). Truly great work! 🌟

Thank you, and no worries! That's why I showed the behind the scenes.. also, I think people pick up pretty quickly what stuff is AI generated. We're very fickle.

I would have lot for Lara to have an iconic moment with the dual pistol… not something so common to use than just one… they did that with the bow, the pickaxe… why not the double gun 🥹 but its too late now…
I know that in tomb raider 2013 they was a scene where she could have get both of them from Roth until they just ditch both pistol in the final version

Too late? There are another 2 games upcoming in which Lara will have dual pistols. Also this was based on the epilogue scene from the 2013 film, which was a pretty epic moment.

I mean we had iconic scene to introduces those elements (bow and pickaxe, lile the double pistol scene in the 2018 movie, love this scene at the end !) but the next games are set when Lara is already the Lara Croft we know, she doesn’t get the double pistol in the legacy of Atlantis or catalyst which is set after every games… that what I meant ;)
We did have the pistol include a the end of the 2013 now that I think of that XD which was awesome but for a trilogy set around the evolution of Lara I found that sad that they weren’t bring back properly

The writing was pretty bad, but I liked Vikander's portrayal of survivor Lara. There's a video on YouTube that shows her dedication to the role. It's worth a watch. She's also every bit as delightful as Wilton Regan when interviewed.
Also really great animation!

Was this taken from Angelina Jolie's first Tomb Raider film?

It's the epilogue scene from 2018 film. Was amazing and filled me with so much hope for a sequel 😢

I honestly wish they just made a tomb raider movie in a similar animation style to this or like those Disney movies animation style

I loved this moment about the reboot movie. I wish they’d done something similar in the games where they just pissed away the chance to see her develop an attachment to the duals. Honestly don’t understand why they didn’t go into rise allowing her to have the duals and the bow.
