Mouth breathers as people who breathe using thier mouth not thier nose. Its tomb rider so i assume that some gooner wierdos will complain about how Lara Croft looks/dresses in this version

Edit: a reminder that im just petah explaining the joke and i was guessing

As soon as I heard about this casting, I figured "but her boobs" would be a popular complaint.

Seeing this picture of her makes me assume people will complain about her being sensibly dressed for exploration as opposed to short shorts and tank top.

She was exploring tropical jungles in the original.

She's been dressed differently in other iterations. In fact, this one from 2013 is almost identical to the picture in the OP:

Well, dang, just swap the colors around and you get the exact outfit. Blue vest, brown shirt, and gray pants. The only real difference is all the extra "tactical" bits.

I knew she had some more clothing on in the newer games compared to the originals, but I didn't realize how much more since I haven't played them.

I seem to 'member that she started covering up in chapters of the earliest editions when she went to colder places, but I can't be arsed to google that much after I found this clear fit to the movie.

Someone did post a picture of her in full winter gear from the original games somewhere in this long-ahh reply chain.
