Okay, so in here let's make a plain general thread! In here let's list every possibility for Lara or whoever it was to blow up the manor forever. And/or what the trailer tells about the story. Everyone's theories. Okay, here is what we have so far. My explanation and others.

1). Trailer in reverse.... You see the key, then the globe, then Pistols. ( The key to the destruction of the Earth is Lara).

2). She blows up the manor to trick Amanda and or Natla into thinking that she is dead and will not try to stop her on her hunt for Thor's Hammer.

3). The woman who blew up the manor is not really Lara. But someone who either has the ability to shape shift into another person or possibly Natla or Amanda obtained a new magical ability.

4). Also, I'm 100% sure that TRU will NOT have anything to do with TR AOD. Strictly b/c CD said they were NOT going back. TRL happened, TRA happened. There are going to be answers in TRU that relate to the unanswered questions in TRL and TRA.

5). Perhaps it wont have anything to do with AoD, but by the looks of it, it's linked with TR:A.
Anyone else finds the bird-shape has a stricing resemblence to the fourth symbol outside the caves in TR:A?

6). thought the idea of dissapearing, lefting the pistols for them to conclude that she was dead. Because she found something, unleashed some evil and caused something to humanity. Humanity must blame her for what happened. And she doesn't face it the way people do. So to end, Lara explodes her manor lefting the idea she died, and then she goes to adventure without anyone knowing where, if she was alive...

7). Something that I've not seen so far - my bro just suggested it.

"Perhaps there's a virus she's trying to contain."


Delve into that one, I've already got a few theories about that. Some ancient disease, or outbreak that needs to be stopped before it can spread.

8).--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i think its burning her past. it also goes with the lyrics of the song. its sad, and it was her choice. and at the same time she can fake her death. so she kills 2 birds with 1 stone. Amanda knows she lived there, so staying there made her an easy target.

i think its at the beginning of the game and she goes to another manor to live in

I will quote my post.

My idea is...

They could show this trailer-tape at beginning of game, and then we start playing game few days before this happened till that moment. And the last level could be some fight in mansion or not fight at all, and they reshow this tape, but extended version of.


I have feeling the game will start and end with this explosion.

Amanda ? I doubt it. Natla ? I doubt it even more. And why would they show a teaser of TRU if Lara isn't there ? It's ridiculous.

I agree too that! :jmp:

Eidos are hinting in the Underworld trailer, us Hitman fan's haven't heard a word about Hitman 5 so far. But there's the clue in the Trailer! :jmp:


Also when you play the trailer forwards you can see the Scion! :D Another link for TRA and Underworld! :D

I noticed something...

http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j61/tomblover_2006/ScionSymbol.png

That symbol thing resembles the Scion from TRA, very much, IMO. There's another symbol behind the armor after it falls to pieces.

So many interesting theories. I will die of curiosity before game is out.
Maybe something was in the manor that she wanted to destroy. IDK I just can't wait to see what actually happens.

its a bit difficult to see though. i think its just a symbol to decorate the house

19-07-08, 20:31
maybe the crossed pistols are the ones from tra and those which she took with her are the ones from trl

burning her house could mean that there is now no way back and nothing that reminds her at her past that could mean that she leaves the past behind and starts everything from new or fire as a symbol for hope

or this could be the way to get zip and alister out
maybe lara got angy about them everytime and then she killed them
and to destroy the pieces of evidence she blows up the manor


or it could be that they burn the trl/tra manor to bring back the old croft manor




so what do you think? :)

@Culprit, I doubt she killed Z&A and then blew up the manor to hide her tracks. I mean, come on, even if she did kill them, who would care?

The game supposedly starts all sunny with Lara in the Mediterranean, if the Manor scene occurs at all it is likely to be after Lara has already decided she is going to go after the hammer. l cannot imagine Lara ever killing Zip and Alister, not matter how annoyed she got with them.

Yeah, she goes to the Mediterranean because her father found the ruins there and supposedly never got around to exploring them. Maybe she finds something he left there which causes her to sever all ties to the past, blow up the manor that used to belong to her parents, and get on with her own life :jmp:

I think this too. Just like in (get ready for it) AOD, the opening scene, we slowly learn more and more about the scene by viewing more pieces of it throughout the game, culminating in the all-telling final showing with every necessary detail revealed.

ALSO

Perhaps there's something having to do with time travel here? Like Lara is doing this as a test for some reason, because you'll notice that when the camera pans out of the manor through the window, lara is FACING it, implying that either
A) she originally watched it explode or
B) that she turned around as/after it exploded
since we are seeing the explosion in reverse the whole time. A and B contradict the trailer however because we see her turn and THEN explode the manor, then walk away without turning back around, so something is amiss with the chronology, thus birthing my time travel theory.
The only thing about that theory though is that if I'm correct it'd mean she blew up the manor twice, or some crazy thing.

now THAT is a theory i can get on board with.

i love that.

20-07-08, 00:24
My thoughts

1)it is a metaphor saying that a new Lara is here

2)Lara faked her death

3)Lara needed to covor something up.

4) Justin said something about it like he said something like..."Maybe it's not Lara folks." IDK...

I think she probably just turns around after she leaves the manor for one last look, then turns around and blows it.

Or she could have turned around to ring Winston and tell him to microwave a can of petrol.

Personally, I think it's the "Lara isn't real" theory.

cococomics_pres
20-07-08, 00:48
I think she probably just turns around after she leaves the manor for one last look, then turns around and blows it.
But there's a problem- If she turned around for one last look, she wouldn't be facing that way WHILE it blew up, which is what we're seeing in reverse throughout the trailer.
Since we are seeing the explosion in reverse, it implies that during the explosion she is facing the manor (according to her position when the camera zooms out).
However, although the camera shows lara facing the manor at the moment OF explosion, we then see her turn around to face us, and explode it.
The two don't align.

I'm assuming that the whole "explosion going in reverse" thing was done for artistic effect rather than actually implying there's anything going on with the time stream. As such, it's more than reasonable to think that the explosion sequence was foretelling what would happen for artistic reasons, or even that Lara's visualizing it in her mind before she pushes the button.

Possibly, but the fact that it zoomed out the window without pause to showing Lara makes me think otherwise. But perhaps you're right!

I don't think Lara is faking her death, she throws the remote right there, with her finger tips prints all over them (she was wearing gloves, but they didn't cover her fingers)... unless the rain whases the prints away

I think she destroys cause of something she discovers (when Eric said she gets really really angry) possibly about her father, and wants to get rid of everything related to him

Larapink
20-07-08, 00:58
Lara takes a moment to look at the manor before she detonates the bomb.
I like that it's like Lara is taking one more look into her past right before she turns around because she doesn't want to see it anymore.
When she is walking away it's like she is walking away from her past and it's a step towards the future! :D

Ward Dragon
20-07-08, 01:01
Possibly, but the fact that it zoomed out the window without pause to showing Lara makes me think otherwise. But perhaps you're right!

Okay, I just watched it again, and by the time the video shows Lara, the house has already reassembled itself and is sitting there normally with the lights on. I assume her sequence of detonating the bomb, walking away and such had already rewound before she appeared on-screen :)

makes sense. and sounds good. she's wearing her wetsuit... ok, crazy theory, but what if in the Medd she finds something bad about her dad, and Z&A betray her or something, so she's on the run and in disguise and goes to destroy the manor 'cause, idk, it's being used as the bad guys' HQ. Maybe she had a secret self-destruct system.

Or maybe her father hid some information in floor of the main hall (like carved under the rug or something :p) and once Lara saw it, she had to destroy it before someone else would see it and learn what she was after.

I still like it better thinking she was intentionally destroying her past with her parents, though :whi:

20-07-08, 01:30
Well I have watched this teaser so many times and I'm failing to see any underlying messages (if there are any). But the key is what I find intriguing, does it mean that for some reason in the game we will return to St. Francis Folly? Maybe that's the one thing this trailer is revealing - the return to the folly. I just really don't know but then aagin when I'm in slow motion and watching Lara here eyes look really sinister so is it actually her? If it is her face seems a bit uglier than previous.

Yes, I do too.

Just like Heavenly Sword, you see Nariko die, then play up to that scene, then a bit after, and the game ends.

It's definitely somewhere in the middle/end part of the game.

Fdx Croft
20-07-08, 01:48
My theory...

I think the Manor explosion is after the Mediterrean Sea level (after she found some hints and new information about her dad... maybe some dark and bad secrets of him, who knows), and she found that Thorīs Hammer is very dangerous... She wants to forget her past, blows up the Manor and then she goes to Mexico (look at the new videos, she wears in Mexico a darkest outfit and looks more hard and bad ass (:P) that in Mediterrean level)...

About St. Francis Folly key, I saw it the first time I watched the teaser... I dont know if it means that we are going back to St. Francis Folly... maybe its just a hint that some mysteries left behind by TRA will be revealed (Tihocan maybe... I hope so!)

:hug:

PD: Your theories are great too ;)

Maybe Lara doesn't blow up her manson as all her life acheivements would be lost forever. It maybe a "dream sequence" prior to opening the portal to the underworld realm as she is placing the world at risk pursuing her own self interest.

I would be very unhappy if this were the case, and I really don't think CD would have a dream sequence A) as a teaser or B) in the actual game. At least I hope they wouldn't!

I think... It's an overly dramatic way, or an allegory, as mentioned before, to show that Underworld is like nothing you've ever seen before. We're leaving all of the previous TR games behind. Underworld is it's own thing, it's completely new, and Lara is done with the past. She's not going back, only moving forward. In a way, she's starting over.

Now, I know that's not as exciting as the other theories, such as her mansion is a portal to the Underworld... she's possessed... the woman we see there is not really Lara, but instead a demon in shapeshift form... but hey, it's all I can come up with. Nothing else seems plausible enough to me. I'm not saying anybody here is wrong and I'm right, you all have very good theories. I just fear some of you might be reading too far into things. Then again, I may not be reading far enough.

This is definately a teaser. Good job CD, you named it accordingly. :whi:

Well, we have heard that there is a LOT of meaning behind it, and I believe it has also been said in magazines or something that her house really IS going to burn in the game, so I don't think it's a symbol. I think it will happen, but none of us can figure out why because it's such a shock!

I still think that if it's not lara, than it's got to be her mom, Amelia. She's the only other person who would carry THAT much of a resemblance to Lara.

Not that I actually think it's not Lara. I do, but with all this conspiracy hubbub, I figured I'd throw that in.

IDK. Maybe Lara heads to the med. where her father's clues intended. And whilst there she finds not Thor's Hammer, but another clue to finding it. And inside this clue it mentions something about how her father was working with Natla, and etc. Lara get's tottaly ****ed, b/c everything her whole life has been a total lie. Thus blowing up the manor to start anew.

I noticed that, while her pistols are in the mansion when it blows up, she also has them with her when she's blowing it up...:confused: mean something?

she has 2 pairs of pistols? I don't think it's a big deal

I just posted this in another thread, but I think it fits better here :D

I just had an idea. What if Lara finds definitive evidence that Amelia is dead and that her father knew it but still dragged her around the world looking for artifacts like the Scion because he really wanted to resurrect Amelia? Lara would be angry that her father kept the evidence from her and based their joint adventures on a lie, and even more angry that he'd try to resort to necromancy :mis:

yes! the first thing that popped into my head was "that's not something lara would usually wear."

Of course it is.

She wore similar stuff in Legend, TRA....leather in most of them in fact!

How many time have I say it?!
Read carefully this post:
Reasons, why in trailer was dopelganger:
1. Look alike Lara
2. That's not Lara beacuse of belts
3. Lara couldn't mad-angry before and fter blowing manor
4. That was dopelgangwer, because it decided to kill Lara itself, wanted to kill itself Lara, that's why blew up manpr, as Lara had a lot of enemies.

Understand?!

...No.

That didn't make a lot of sense.

Pfft, as for it not being Lara COME ON! I mean we all wanted a more badass Lara and now we got it, and people are just passing it off as a doppelganger?

I am not discrediting any theories because I could be stupid and wrong, I just hope it is a badass Lara that we have.

In that case, it's not Lara because she doesn't have a braid. :D

I make this video, inspired by one of the many interpretation of the offical Teaser Trailer of Tomb Raider Underworld

Look here. I suppose Fluffy has blown Manor up... Notice that Lara has this pendant after TRL ending!

Ah, that's true....she picked up the pendant....hmmmm.

Maybe Fluffy will have something to do with all of this.

Almosty definately. i still think a corrupted Lara is a possibility.

About St. Francis Folly key, I saw it the first time I watched the teaser... I dont know if it means that we are going back to St. Francis Folly... maybe its just a hint that some mysteries left behind by TRA will be revealed (Tihocan maybe... I hope so!)[/B]

maybe she comes back to sff to find clues about Tihocan yup. Coz she didn't find any in tra. And then she finds out that Tihocan is in Mexico so she goes there ?

I thought the Doppelganger copied whatever Lara was doing?
So, Lara is exploding some other building and the doppelganger happens to be at Lara's house?

I don't get it |:

The doppelganger had a sifferent skin, or I guess skin-less. And the doppelganger died long time ago.;)
