Re\Visioned: Tomb Raider
Re\Visioned: Tomb Raider Animated Series is a ten part animated series based on the Tomb Raider series. It began airing on the online video game service GameTap on July 10, 2007. The series is comprised of various animation and comic book talent's renditions of Lara Croft, presented in the form of animated short films. The series was originally intended to conclude on August 23, 2007, but date for the final episode has been changed to "Soon".
Even though the styles of the episodes vary, the voice actress for Lara Croft, Minnie Driver, remains constant throughout the series. The main criticism that the series has received are that the varying animation styles are somewhat confusing, and that the storylines of the episodes tend to be rather thin.
Re\Visioned: Tomb Raider Animated Series is the first season of the GameTap TV original animated series, Re\Visioned, which explores and re-imagines well known video game franchises.[1]
