I agree, but it's not even taking the best of the reboot... The Himiko backstory was one of the only good things about the plot and that has been tarnished in the movie script, as well as Lara's bond with Roth which was underused in the reboot and I thought would have had potential in the movie. They managed to get rid of Sam, however what they replaced her with is far worse and almost a huge creative liberty when it comes to every origin of Lara's we've had so far. I don't care if this is a new take on the franchise, you would NOT reboot Batman and have a grown up Bruce Wayne meet his father who never died after all. There is no impactful first kill scene either, but this can be argued as a good thing as in the game it happens so fast and theres no time for Lara to mourn every person she kills as she becomes a mass murderer.

Regarding baby_doll, I do really like the stills that have released so far because they feel quite organic, while some like yourself may argue it looks like Cosplay, i'm happy with Lara's look and am not sure how you don't look like cosplay when adapting a game character's exact outfit with slight changes. The sets don't look hugely fantastical and CGI in the stills either making it look slightly cheaper but I'm happy with that because I didn't want a hugely stylised film. Regarding Lara herself in the script, I think they go a little bit overboard at the start with trying to make her look un-posh. Lara, in every incarnation, would have always been a classy girl through the years. They try and paint Lara as hugely unglamorous to parts where it's like "Really?" but I do like that she's cocky and sarcastic. That's what's currently missing from Reboot Lara.

Well, I can't even counter your argument, James as I saw the word 'script' and scarpered. .

If that really is her agent's website, then I'd say that was confirmation. They don't need to speculate. So that article from a while back was correct. Good to know. I think she's a good choice for Ana.
