"As a rare movie franchise with a female lead character, whoever replaces Jolie as Lara Croft will need just the right characteristics. She needs to be more than sexy - she needs to be tough, smart and physical."

"Facelifts and other forms of cosmetic surgery aren’t just for aging MILFs, dried-up Hollywood C-listers and 40 stone blobs who have to get forklifted out of their beds.
