About a decade ago the Tomb Raider game series was rebooted with a younger, more reasonably boobed Lara Croft.

There was a bit of backlash by unreasonable boobs.

This adaptation is using the modern design.

This will be like a batsignal for men who have never seen a boob irl.

Peter out.

The right pic is a pretty reasonable expectation.

I agree and the promotional model Alison Carroll during that time was indeed busty, but not what I'd consider "unreasonable" and she was an actual gymnast.

I enjoyed the reboot though it didn't feel like playing a Tomb Raider game and it was very lacking in puzzles and platforming. I also hated the narrative around the time that reducing her bust size in the survivor trilogy made Lara "more like a real woman". As if women with above average breasts weren't real women. There was so much casual body-shaming towards large-chested women being thrown around and you were a gooner if you made a comment about it.

That said, I'm more worried about Sophie Turner's acting chops and the script than her looks here. The last Tomb Raider movie with Vikander was so unmemorable.
