[kingraider27]

The Trailer Starts Off With The Scenery Of The Coast Of Thailand And Lara's Yacht Which Shows A Shark Nearby. Then We See Lara Walking Out Onto The Ledge And Looking Around. It Then Blacks Out And We See Lara Climbing Up Some Ledges To Reach The Top. We Then See Her Running Into The Temple.zip Then Says "i Still Don't See How Thailand Is Connected To Vikings Or Ruins Under The Meda Hell Even Avalon For That Matter". During Zip Talking Lara Is Inspecting One Of The Buddha Statues Beleived To Be Kali And Shiva The Gods. The Screen Blacks Out And It Says 'some Ruins Should Never Be Discovered' It Then Black Out Again And We See Lara In Mexico Under A Bridge. It Then Blacks Out Again And We Hear Lara Saying "helheim Zip. Various Myths Use Different Names But They All Apply To The Same Remnants Of The Ancient World. She Is Saying This While Climbing Up Ledges. It Then Cuts To You Seeing Lara Looking Down Into What Appears To Be An Entrance Which We See Flashing Blue Lights. It Then Pans Down And The Words 'some Relics Should Never Be Used' We Now See Lara Heading Towards The Ancient Oak Tree. She Then Says "thor's Hammer Mjornir Was Powerful Enough To Level Mountains But How Does All Of This Relate To Avalon?" The Screen Blacks Out And We Are Now Seeing One Of The Locations Of The Underworlds. Lara Says "the Place Of Fear"it Then Cuts To Lara In A Tomb Looking Around. It Then Blacks Out To 'some Doors Should Never Be Opened' It Again Cuts To Lara Opening A Door Covered In Blue Hieroglyphs. It Then Cuts To Lara Jumping And The Kraken Attacking Her With Its Tentacles.it Cuts Again To Lara Looking Around A Placw With Three Other People. We Then See Lara Performing In Slow Motion Her Moves That Will Get Her Past The Traps Set. We Then See Lara Jumping Up A Icey Mountain And Then We See Her Shooting Some Nagas Inside A Temple. She Says "i Need Thor's Belt To Get His Hammer, And I Need That Hammer To Kill A God". We Then See Skulls And Lara Racing Towards Them On Her Motorcycle But Stops Right In Front Of The Gap. We Then See Lara Shooting The Gargantuan Spiders And Blowing Them Up. It Then Cuts To Lara Inside Croft Manor And Shes Trying To Escape The Explosion. We Then See Her Jump Across And Grab The Bar And Jump Down. We Then See What Appears To Be Zip Shooting At Lara And Then Lara Shooting Back. She Says " Drop It Zip Or I'll Drop You".it Then Blacks Out And 'some Tombs Should Never Be Disturbed' We Then See Lara Peeking Behind A Corner And We See What Appears To Be A Empty Room. We Then See Lara Walking Forward And Then Stops And Says "no" And The Screen Blacks Out And We Hear A Familiar Voice That Says "im Very Pleased To See You Again Lara.the End.

indepth Analysis
It Seems That Thailand According To Some Resources Is After The Mediterranean Level But Other Websites Quote It As Being The Second Level Of The Game.

Level Order:
1. Mediterranean
2.croft Manor
3.museum / Belize
4.mexico (uxmal)
5.thailand

These Are What Have Been Confirmed To Be The Level Order For The First Five Levels But Level 3 Is Not A Definite Yet.

It Seems That The Thailand Level Will Start Off With Lara On Her Yacht So I Guess That We Will Not Be Driving The Yacht.

Myth/theory - When Zip Talks About Vikings Being Connected To Thailand I Found Out That There Is A Cave Called Viking Cave Even Though There Arent Vikings Thatcame To It. Within The Cave Was Statues And Paintings Of Ancient Tribes And People Who Have Been Here.

The Statues Represent Kali And Shiva The Hindu Gods. What I Found Out Was That Shiva Ruled Amongst His People With Three Other Gods And They Were Referred To As Trimurti. Anyone Else Think That This Is A Coincidence To Truimvirate Which Contained Natla, Qualopec And Tihocan. Maybe Cd Got There Idea From This. It Seems That They Got There Ideas From Things Like This But Based The Three Rulers In Tomb Raider As Not Being Related To Any Of The Gods Or Having Powers Like Them.

Helheim - Meaning Hel In Some Cultures. This Place Is Full Of Ice So It Looks Like This World Will Be Located In Either Finland Or The Artic. However The Meaning In Norse Is Something That Is Concealed Or Hidden Away.


The Tree - The Tree Is In Fact Actually The Tree Of The Worlds. It Is What Links Them All Together And Will Help Lara Locate The Nine Worlds. Around The Tomb We See A Large Statue Of What Appears To Be Thor But Is In Fact Tihocan. Tihocan And Thor Share Some Attributes In That They Both Can Produce Thunder So Could They Be Linked In Some Way.

Lara Speaks About Mjornir Being Able To Level Mountains. This Is One Of The Physical Attributes The Hammer Has Along With Many More. It Seems That Avalon Is Surrounded And Hidden Away So It Must Be Mountains That She Will Have To Destroy In Order To Get To Avalon. According To The Vikings Finland Was One Of The Places That Avalon Was But This Has Never Been Proven Yet So Finland Might Be Where Avalon Is In The Game. According To Myth It Was Covered In Ice And Thor Has Smashed Many Mountains.

The Place Of Fear Is A Translation For Xibalba The Mayan Underworld. It Is Said That Some Caves In Belize Where The Key To Finding Xibablba And How To Open It.so To Me This Might Be The Third Level Because If Cd Want To Keep The Game Close To Mythology Then Lara Has To Know About The Caves.

It Then Cuts To Lara Looking Around A Tomb. To Me The Tomb Looks Like The Pyramid And Final Level Of Anniversary Where Lara Fights Natla But Burnt.

The Next Part That Gets Me Is That When Lara Faces The Kraken She Is Wearing A Completely Different Outfit So It Seems That Either The Kraken Didnt Die The First Time Or There Is More Than One Kraken,

Next Is The Museum Part Where Lara Is Looking Around With What Appears To Be Allister, Zip And Winston Or The Professor Mentioned In Tomb Raider Legend.

The Part Where She Says She Needs Thor's Belt To Get His Hammer And Needs The Hammer To Kill A God. This Is Referring To Natla As It Seems That She Knows Where Her Father Is And Has Been All This Time. It Seems That Lara Will Have To Make A Difficult Choice In The Game Save Her Father Or Save Her Mother. This Is Why She Needs The Hammer To Kill Natla And Try And Save Both Of Them. Natla Is Back To Stop Natla And The Only Way To Do That Is The Hammer Itself. The Belt Is What Gives The Person Wielding The Hammer To Hold It. It Is Called Medingjoro. It Allows The Wearer To Double There Strength. But The Question Is Why Havent They Included The Iron Gloves As Well???

Lets Cut To The Part Where Lara Is Inside The Burning Manor. We All Know Lara Blows Up The Manor But Is It Really Her Or Someone Else. The Crates Labelled Natla Technologies At The End Of Legend Could Be An Indication As To The Return Of Natla. But I Think She Has Already Made Her Return In Legend As Amanda. Somehow The Beast And Amanda When She Pulled Out The Stone Could Have Merged Natla Within Amanda Herself. Amanda However Does Not Realise This. Or The Second Theory Is That Natla Made Amanda An Offer She Cant Refuse. It Does Make Sense As They Both Hate Lara And Want Revenge And Natla Allowed Amanda To Get This Far With Her Knowledge. It Seems Strange How Amanda And Rutland Knew Where To Find The First Fragnment Of The Sword And The Rest Of It To. Natla Has All The Knowledge Of The Ancients So She Would Know Where They Were About. The Two Lara Theories Are Very Puzzling But To Me I Think The Real Lara Is On The Inside As Why Would You Have Natla Impersonating Lara And You Get To Play Her Trying To Escape The Mansion Or This Could Be A Clever Trick That Cd Are Playing On Us, So The Lara On The Outside Must Be Natla In Disguise Trying To Get Rid Of Lara Once And For All.

The Zip Shooting Lara Theory Is That If You Look Very Closely You See After Zip Shoots Lara That She Backs Away And Her Hand Is Near The Vase And It Melts But Then Reforms Itself. This Is Only One Of My Theories But The Other Is That The Clip Has Been Edited And Parts Put Into Place That Are Used To Confuse Us. To Me It Looks Like The Clip Starts Off With Lara Telling Zip To Put His Guns Down And Then Zip Shoots And Hits The Vase. While Winston Is Trying To Stop Zip From Making A Mistake. He Blames Lara For What Has Happened And Tells Her To Stop What She Is Doing As This Is Only One Part Of The Story That Will Lead Lara To Ending The World. It Seems That The Blowing Up Of The Manor Was Just A Warning For Lara To Stay Away But The Final Part Will Be The End Of The World Which Natla Is Trying To Bring About. The 7th Age Is A New World That Will Be Created Soon After This World Is Destroyed. It Is Said That Only The Gods Will Survive And Those Gods Will Recreate A New World. It Seems That Natla Is Trying To Recreate Atlantis And Her People But She Would Need The Scion To Do So. So The Scion Has To Be Involved Somehow.

The Final Part Of The Trailer Shows Lara Looking Into A Room And If You Look Closely You Will See A Person Bound To The Wall. Could This Be Lara's Father Or Tihocan Himself. Tihocan Is The Only One Beside The Hammer Strong Enough To Defeat Natla. He Knows Her Plans And Weaknesses And So Wherever She Is He Must Be Near By As Well. Also The Guy Has Something Around His Neck But Not Sure What. Could This Be Tihocan I Mean We See Ice In The Chamber Which Was One Of His Abilities So Could Natla Have Been Testing His Abilities.

We Have Been Told That In The Mediterranean Level From What We Have Seen Is 10 Minutes Into The Game So It Looks Like There Is A Long Cutscene Before That Explaining How Lara Found The Tomb.

No Offence, But Why Do You Write Liek This?

Thanks!! I agree

I THINK I know why Zip is angry....In the first trailer you can see a person look through the window on the left side...that could be Zip...He sees 'Lara' walking away after 'she' has blown up her manor.....But in the new trailer at the time 1.36 until 1.38 Lara is beneath her Manor (for some reason)..


(i'm sorry bad englisch)

[Arctic]

Hmm.. why does every word start with a big letter? :scratch:

[Rexie]

Some people think that pressing Shift after ever word is cool.
