TRIGGER WARNING.
“The ability to see her as a human is even more enticing to me than the more sexualized version of yesteryear. She literally goes from zero to hero… we’re sort of building her up and just when she gets confident, we break her down again.”
In the new Tomb Raider, Lara Croft will suffer. Her best friend will be kidnapped. She’ll get taken prisoner by island scavengers. And then, Rosenberg says, those scavengers will try to rape her. “She is literally turned into a cornered animal,” Rosenberg said. “It’s a huge step in her evolution: she’s forced to either fight back or die.”
—Ron Rosenberg, talking to Kotaku about the Tomb Raider reboot.
You can imagine my thoughts on this, but I wrote a post to illuminate them, anyway. This is some base misogyny, and the dude isn’t even ashamed about it.
