The last Tomb Raider movie with Angelina Jolie was The Cradle of Life which was back in 2003, although since then the Tomb Raider game has been given a well-deserved reboot. Now it looks like the movie will be following suit according to Crystal Dyamics’ head Darrell Gallagher in an interview with Variety. The exact specifics of this new Tomb Raider movie was not revealed, but Gallagher did share that the new movie will be loosely based on the rebooted Tomb Raider game and will feature a less experienced Lara Croft (versus the butt-kicking character Angelina Jolie portrayed in the first two movies).
According to Gallagher, “They [Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby] are working from this new take that we’ve given them […] It’s a good partnership. We’re seeing the challenges through the same lens […] It was important for both of us to have a cohesive version of the franchise. We didn’t want to see a film version that was a continuation of the old Tomb Raider films.” The Tomb Raider game reboot was released on the 5th of March and based on the reviews we’ve seen so far, many are impressed. Hopefully the movie will be able to do it justice as well. So, any suggestions on who could play the new Lara Croft?

If you have 20 minutes, you should watch Valibation. It’s a short film directed by Todd Strauss-Schulson (he’s done a Harold and Kumar movie but this is nothing like that) that shows how being addicted to your phone can turn into a disease where the phone actually becomes a part of you. It’s dark, it’s weird and it’s revealing—would we want our phones to be a part of us? That’s not an automatic no, right? More »

Sony’s now obsolete PS3 may be the Netflix streaming device of choice, but that doesn’t mean the popular streaming service will ignore other platforms. The Netflix app on iOS, which saw its last big refresh back in September last year, has just been bumped up to v3.0 — bringing with it a slew of UI changes aimed towards improving your movie-watching experience. The zoom icon that was removed previously is now back for easier access to full-screen viewing, while a tap displays video titles if you’re using the app on the iPad. The three-point change log also includes a relocation of the playback controls. Nothing profound, but hey — could be worth your while if it keeps you away from reality just a little longer.

Sky cuts a deal with Disney for exclusive access, launches Sky Movies Disney
Posted in: Today's ChiliIn Sky’s latest bid (after getting Sony and Warner on the hook) to corner premium viewing content in the UK before rivals including Lovefilm and Netflix get traction, it has announced an extension to its 24-year agreement with Disney. Beyond guaranteeing Disney — which means Lucasfilm, of course — Pixar and Marvel flicks will be on Sky (plus Sky Go, and 3D movies on Sky 3D) a year before any other service, it’s also creating a new Sky Movies Disney Channel in its lineup that launches March 28th. In order to reach those not with the typical TV package, the deal also brings Disney’s movies to Sky’s Now TV internet video service for users with a monthly movie pass. We’re sure 24 years ago, such deals didn’t cover so many devices or avenues of access but snagging exclusives to gain a market advantage has stayed exactly the same.
