They blame the box office meh-ness of Tomb Raider:Cradle of Life on the fact that gamers didn't like Angel of Darkness?
Seems to me that the reason it didn't do very well is because it's a lazy sequel to a boring, pointless film that didn't do fantastically well in the 1st place?

Angelina Jolie gets naked in loads of films, no need to spend your £ on this rubbish.
Oh, looks like nobody has anyway.
Good. Dont blame the game, blame dull, derivative, thoughtless McMovies that people have gorged on and are full.

A crappy action film with a hot chick in it that manages to miss the mark of both brainless explosion fest and mindless eye candy? And nobody wants to see it? Wow, must be the game.

Thing is, execs will blame everything but they fact they suck at their jobs.

"Let's make Tomb Raider:The Movie!"
"But Indiana Jones is already a good film"
"...Angelina Jolie! But you dont see anything!"
"But she's been in countless films naked"

Got made, got released, got panned.
Then the sequel.
"But it failed"
"Damn computer game, it's the reason our film sucked"
"But the game sold millions"
"...er...."

And on another related note, they're remaking Dawn of The Dead and making it PG-13.
Nobody will watch, they'll blame horrow movies for not being in vogue and that's that.

PG-13?

That's gotta be some kind of sick ass joke. Flesh eating zombies that don't really eat anyone because the censors said so.

Are you alright today Goaty - you're making an awful lot of spelling and grammar mistakes. Wrists sore, or something, for some reason?

I am, aren't I? Just tired, dont usually make this many.
Sorry.

Just watched the trailer for "Cradle of Life" and I've seen stunts ripped from View to a Kill, Thunderbirds, Never Say Never Again, The Great Escape and countless John Woo movies.
This will suck even worse than the 1st one.

And yep, a PG-13 zombie film.
So zombie fans wont watch, kids wont like it and it'll tank.
Resident Evil gets made, and George Romero can't get funding for a 4th zombie flick.
Something is wrong

At least the people behind Spaced are making a zombie movie! "Shaun of the Dead" it's called, and stars Simon Pegg! Can't wait.

They need to male a film that involves a zombie in a regular job. Such as a receptionist, or perhaps a systems analyst.

Check out www.undeadmovie.com for a class looking zombie movie in the tradition of Pete Jackson.
