There are 3 factors that define a woman's body: hips, breasts and butt.  She has none of those 3, therefore she has the body of a dude.

Also, the term petite is for small women, and not for women that look like men.

She's a former ballerina, ballerinas are always ultra petite. She most definitely has a more feminine figure than any man I have ever seen, methinks perhaps you are blind. She put on some extra muscle for this role in order to make Lara's basdassery more belivable, perhaps that is what is throwing you off? 

considering she jumps a lot you would expect that she also trained her lower body too dont you think??  If she just does upper body excercises her shoulder girdle will get bigger and change her body proportions to be more "manly".   Getting muscular for a female is a lot harder if they want to maintain a femenine look and proportions.

I'll see it, but I doubt it'll do well. Maybe $50 million total domestically.



Yeah, about the tits...if we're going by the book, Lara (original, not this whiny, psychotic mess from Reboot) is expert gymnast...so if the real life teaches us anything about top female gymnast, she should have very small breasts...that is, if she was real life character.
But then again TR was never trying to be that realistic...Lara's athletic capabilities are way beyond that (again, original Lara, one that actually trained since she was a kid), so it's quite fine that she is well curved AND top notch athlete/fighter...that, among pretty much all other things that defined original TRs, is what's been missing from rebooted franchise, and it seems that this movie is just another attempt in establishing this new quasi-Lara as canon.



I want it to be good, but.....ya....I'm not feeling it based on this trailer tbh. It looks like it's trying way too hard to be the video game, and while I enjoy that game a lot, something about that just doesn't quite work for me.

That makes sense. The movie isnt a massive budget so wont completely flop like GITS did. If the last RE film is anything to go by it should do well in China. 

I reckon 50m domestic too with 40m international and another 50m or so from asia.

I can't say I've ever seen a dude that looks like that, lol. 

*dude-looking woman pics*

So dude-like, lmao. What is this, the 1950's, where only voluptuous, big breasted women were considered attractive? It's 2017, plenty of guys like petite women nowadays.

Are you single by choice?

Lol this coming from a guy who's avatar has a woman with at least a C cup.

Where did I say I like fake plastic breasts?

You can't argue that a woman wth a natural C/D cup and a bit of meat on the bone is less attractive than a woman with a AA/A cup which is all bone.

Perhaps more attractive and interesting to look at, specially if properly bound by a bra or a properly placed arm. But definitely not to feel and touch as a man or have them as a woman.

If you have had sex or at least went to second base with a girl with them, then you will know that huge natural boobs tend to feel like a  party baloon filled with a moderate ammount of water. Meaning they are way softer and squishier than you would expect them to be. They fall awkwardly to opposite sides when the girl lays down and the skin tends to be very elastic, specially on the nipple, so kissing it or sucking or w/e might feel a bit unnerving giving how easily the skin stretches. If you are a woman with huge natural boobs you tend to suffer from back pain, sagging after pregnancy or when getting older, and not to mention the dreaded underboob sweat, which supposedly is very uncomfortable and tends to stink.

Relatively smaller boobs are better IMO since you avoid so many of the huge boob flaws and still have the benefits of looking good and being nice. I think even implants are better than huge natural boobs too since they don't sag and feel more like you'd expect them to feel. Honestly, I am kind of disappointed with huge natural boobs given the expectations of my teenage years.

Nah, implants are definetly not better then natural boobs regarless of size since they can lead to numerous health issues.  Plus you now can have larger breasts via stem cell injections which is a lot safer that way you grow your on breast and don't have a foreign object in your body that the rest of you body is trying to reject.  Also big natural breast don't automatically sag when getting older Petra Verkaik is over 50 and her breast are still close to the same size and shape when she was in her 20s.

This kind of comments disgusts me.

But do tell. What factors define a man's body?

The factor that determine a man's body are:  big shoulder girdle, no prominent hips nor butt, bigger chest.  In resume a more rectangular shape (or inverted triangle in a more idealistic scenario).  Women's body due to hormones and esqueletal structure should have a more "hourglass" shape; with the hips being wider than their shoulder girdle (opposite to men).  And have more prominent butt due to adipose tissue because of hormones and other biological phisiological stuff.

Something tells me he knows all about that stuff.

Were are these guys? I know not one friend that would take a no breasted woman over a breasted woman

You have some extremely shallow friends then.

How is it shallow? most first encounters / first impressions are based on apperance and attraction. When you go out to meet someone in the club you will naturally focus on a better looking woman. You may buy her a few drinks and she can end up being a dumbass and you move on. I never said that all other aspects didn't matter in the long run. 

It is no different then women wanting lean muscular looking men as their first choice.

It is human instinct to pick someone that looks like they can bear healthy children.

If two women had the same qualities that you admired equally and the only thing that slipt them is that one had nicer breasts, then you would probably pick the one with the nicer breasts subconsciously.

What i am implying is none of the guys I know would actively say right im going to go and chat up the flattest / skinniest looking chick in the room as their first choice. Just like no woman will say right i'll go chat to the fat lonly looking dude sitting at the bar drinking that whisky as their first choice lol.

People that don't fit first impressions window always become friends first before a relationship develops. That is the point where they can sell themselves for their other qualities.
