Hi, everyone! I passed my summer exams and my parents bought me the Tomb Raider DVD as a present! It’s an old film, but it’s got my favourite video game character in it: Lara Croft! I already have all the Tomb Raider video games. I like Lara Croft because she is very clever and strong. In the game, she jumps, climbs through dangerous places and searches for ancient things. You should definitely play it! Who’s your favourite video game character? Posted by: Dan_16, 6/12, 18:38 Tomb Raider is a great film, Dan – I should watch it again! My favourite video game character is Super Mario! He lives in the Mushroom Kingdom and he’s very brave. He spends his time helping Princess Peach escape from Bowser. Mario’s nickname is Jumpman because he can do fantastic jumps! My favourite thing about him, though, is how he looks: he always wears a red tracksuit and a red cap with the letter ‘M’ on it. I think he looks cute! Posted by: Sarah_16, 6/12, 19:22 1 Dan failed his summer exams. ______ 2 Dan has all the Tomb Raider games. ______ 3 Lara Croft studied Maths and History. ______ 4 Super Mario helps Princess Peach.

  • THE MYSTERIOUS LARA CROFT: Digibimbo Vs. Digiheroine
    THE MYSTERIOUS LARA CROFT: Digibimbo vs. Digiheroine 1 Rachelle Fernandez February 12th, 2001 STS145: Case History Prospectus Every once in a while, a game comes along whose influence extends beyond the gaming world and into contemporary society. One interesting and hotly debated aspect of this is the role certain video games play in gender politics. Consider the following. Scene One. A helicopter, its propellers whipping the air, zooms into the scene and drops down an agile figure onto the ground. It’s a woman, dressed in hiking shorts with pistols holstered to both thighs. The woman has landed in a dark cave and, after a cautious look around, begins to explore it, sometimes walking cautiously, other times running ahead, leaping boulders. She comes across a flare lying mysteriously on the wet cavern floor. With a happy sigh, she picks the item up. Suddenly the woman hears low grumble behind her and somersaults backwards to face an angry tiger. She whips out two automatic pistols and blasts the tiger to its death, her face contorted in a snarl. Scene Two. An exotic dancer is performing in a strip club. The camera zooms away from her to reveal an empty audience. The slogan “Where The Boys Are” is flashed across the screen while a crowd of lusty men rapidly exit the strip club in pursuit of the same woman we just saw exploring eerie caverns. 2 This “woman” isn’t even really a woman at all. She’s Lara Croft, the star in the hit video game series Tomb Raider. Lara Croft is something of a cultural icon.

BOAT -- NIGHT 1 DREAM SEQUENCE The dark cabin of the boat sways in the surf. LARA sleeps on a couch. She stirs at the sound of a boat engine, opening her eyes. The light streaming in through the blinds starts to move across the wall. Lara tracks it until it comes to a stop. A shadow begins to move revealing a silhouette of a man. He takes a few steps towards her. The shadow speaks with the voice of RICHARD CROFT, Lara's father. SHADOW RICHARD CROFT Lara. Wake up. You're almost there. Lara squints and rubs her eyes, trying to understand what she is seeing. SHADOW RICHARD CROFT (CONT'D) They are coming, Lara. LARA CROFT What? Who? SHADOW RICHARD CROFT They are already here. The sound of another boat engine. Lara sits up and looks out of the window. Through the blinds she can see several boats with flood lights and dozens of men with machine guns. She turns back and the shadowed figure of her father is gone. Lara looks out the window once more. A WOMAN stands in silhouette on the center boat. Her voice booms over the loud speakers. SILHOUETTE WOMAN We have you now, Lara. There is no escape. In a flash Lara is on her feet and up the stairs as the cabin is blasted with machine gun fire. 2. 2 EXT.

But beyond that, I appreciated the book’s message that the road to happiness is to be true to yourself first.” - The FlyLeaf Review “An extremely adorkable read about being comfortable in your own skin. Get ready to bring out your inner nerd!” - Sara Book Nerd “THE SUMMER I BECAME A NERD is everything you want in an ideal summer; it’s fun and bright, with the perfect mix of romance and nerdiness. You’ll devour this book with as much enthusiasm as the main character devours the latest comic book.” - Alice in Readerland “A total feel good romance with plenty of laughs and smiles, and just the right amount of emotion.” - A Good Addiction “A sweet and fun summer read that turns the tables on the popular guy/nerdy girl scenario and refreshingly features a popular girl who wants to let her nerd flag fly.

  • Adaptation and New Media: Establishing the Videogame As an Adaptive Medium
    Adaptation and New Media: Establishing the Videogame as an Adaptive Medium On 26 April 2014, at a landfill site in New Mexico, thousands of copies of the 1983 videogame ET were found, games that had been buried by Atari after its economic and critical failure. Made and released in just six weeks, the game was intended to be, according to makers Atari, “emotionally oriented” and “based on the film’s sentimentality for the alien” (Guins 2014: 216). As an adaptation of one of the highest grossing films of 1982, it was an attempt to build on its success, but players quickly discovered that it had no ludic or narrative depth, that the graphics were inferior (even by 1983 standards), and began returning the game to retailers in droves. As the flaws became manifest, Atari buried the games in a secret location, which quickly became urban myth, until a documentary crew rediscovered it over thirty years later. ET cost Atari approximately twenty million dollars for the license alone, and its failure helped bring about the company’s subsequent demise; it has since gone on to be described as “the worst game ever” (Guins 2014: 217). In 2015, videogame adaptations have become much more successful and popular than this unidirectional and unsuccessful beginning suggests: tie-in videogames are frequently made to coincide with film releases, novelisations of videogames are becoming increasingly popular, and films based on videogames are now a common form. Videogames, while still being considered a niche market by some, have fast become a leading and profitable business, and have, in recent years, seen changes in their reception and creation, including their ability to adapt and remediate other media.

  • The Damsel in Distress (Female) the Damsel in Distress Is a Popular Stereotype Seen in Video Games
    The damsel in distress (female) The damsel in distress is a popular stereotype seen in video games. These characters are always in need of being rescued in some way by the male lead. A perfect example of this character is Princess Peach from Super Mario Bros. She is constantly getting kidnapped by male ‘baddies’ such as Bowser, and the main purpose of Mario and Luigi is to save her. The character of Princess Peach is weak, pretty, and wears a pink dress. She never defends herself in the game and often cries out to Mario for help. The non stereotypical hero (female) A number of recent games have been praised by feminist gamers for their attempt in combating gender stereotypes. The non stereotypical hero is when a character does not fit the expected stereotypes for their gender. The main character in the 2008 game Mirror’s Edge was hailed as a big step forward in defeating sexism in the gaming industry. Faith is physically fit, has tattoos, wears gender neutral clothes and is not highly sexualised as some female lead characters can be. The magic user (female) In many video games, female characters are more likely to use magic than their male counterparts. Often, these magic users have only healing magic. This lowers their capabilities and makes them out to be physically weak compared to male characters. Magic users in the Final Fantasy games are not physically capable of combat, characters that know healing magic usually have very few abilities that can damage enemies. An example of a healing magic user from Final Fantasy X is Yuna.

  • Does Lara Croft Need a Makeover?
    May 6th 2009 Does Lara Croft Need a Makeover? Tomb Raider fans are split on where Lara Croft goes next. by Patrick Klepek Whether she likes it or not, Lara Croft's getting a makeover. It doesn't matter if we're talking about the Tomb Raider video games or movies (goodbye Angelina Jolie, hello Megan Fox?) -- the old Lara Croft is being asked to quietly leave the premises. But does she need to? Publisher Eidos Interactive was unhappy with the sales performance of Tomb Raider: Underworld last year. They're not abandoning the Tomb Raider franchise, but the next time we see her, she'll definitely be different, claims the publisher. “We need to look at everything, as we develop the next game," said Eidos chief financial offer Robert Bren to Times Online in January. "Look at how Batman changed successfully, from the rather sad character of the Michael Keaton era to the noir style of The Dark Knight.” The evolution of Lara Croft. The franchise underwent a critical and commercial revival after developer Crystal Dynamics was handed the keys to the Tomb Raider series, rebooting Lara with 2006's well-received Tomb Raider: Legend. Not all Tomb Raider fans think Crystal Dynamics' decisions moved the series in the right direction, though. "Fans of the original series love these games for the dynamic and original storylines, but most importantly, the character," said eight-year Tomb Raider fan fiction writer Katie Fleming. "Lara is irreplaceable and I believe when Crystal Dynamics created a new history for her, the series lost a lot of fans.
