About this episode

This episode explores the legacy of Lara Croft and her impact on video games and culture.

This month I finish up my series looking at video games that transcended their genres, and in this episode I'll be digging into the most famous video game heroine of them all...Lara Croft! We'll check out how she was created, how she took over the world, and how she still inspires today. Plus, Michaela drops by to help me craft a cocktail in Tomb Raiders honor! www.drinkthemovies.com www.patreon.com/drinkthemovies *Please Drink Responsibly* Tomb Raider Assets 1https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuRc3DJogzg BBC Interview 96/97 1B- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l25IionYlp0 BBC 1997 2-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hg4RAPJJtFk Angelina Jolie Interview – ScreenSlam 3 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdHGiTSvt-c E3 Trailer (Abruptly Stops) 4-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_JUu-WXZ8E Advertisement Compilation (Pepsi Movie Tie-In 8:39) 5 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ffS2cjQ9eI Toby Gard Playing a Female Character 6 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnhZKT1Yvus Toby Gard Interview 7-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGO4pDtpDaw Lara Croft Way News Report 8-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibwpmHFTe44 Gone a Bit Lara Lucozade Commercial 9-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0kA9koPeW8…
