She's got kind of a babyface thing, I sorta get what he means. I just don't get why it's a problem. Why compare her to Jolie in the first place, it's a reboot.

Walt Goggins looking good as a straight up villain.

Vikander doesn't have a babyface at all, she's got a chiseled jawline. He's just exhibiting his own weird, uninformed assumptions about her age and phenotype.



Now Jennifer Lawrence, SHE has a babyface.

Because she looks like a child in the face. It's just such a bizarre difference of appearance from Angelina Jolie as Tomb Raider.

I don't think you got as high as Vikander's face before making your call.

Not really bizarre that a whole new take on the character, based on a new incarnation of the games has a different look for the character. Did you think this was a direct sequel to the Jolie films or something

I think Jolie has a cameo as her mom at the end giving her two pistols for Christmas.

Jolie has always just had a sort of statuesque presence that's always made her seem a little bit older than she was.

She made Tomb Raider more or less immediately after she won an Oscar (for Girl, Interrupted) so she was in a pretty similar position to Jennifer Lawrence around the time the Hunger Games movies started (unless I've misremembered when Lawrence won her Oscar).

I believe Tomb Raider is still one of her "known for" roles, but to be honest I couldn't tell you off the top of my head what the last movie she was in was. The last big one that occurs to me is Maleficent and I think that one was five years ago.

Huh, she's 42? I always felt like she was in her 50s by now. Probably because I'd pinned her as 30+ in Tomb Raider.

I caught a little bit of the first Tomb Raider movie on TV a few months ago and it has not aged well. Not like they were spectacular works of art to begin with but everything about it suffers from "hey I hear kids these days like the Matrix, how can we make this exactly like the Matrix."

Daniel Craig looked old as gently caress in that movie, even back then. I feel like he's always looked like a hard living 45-50 year old assassin.

Spoilering just in case you want to see it live, but for the Dundee stuff it's a real film!

And by real film, I mean an extremely short film that's meant to advertise for Tourism Australia. Some might call it a commercial:
