You may know Megan Fox for her starring role as "Stars-and-Stripes Bikini Kid Dancing Under Waterfall" in Bad Boys 2, or her work as the non-robotic female lead  in the Transformers movies (I think she's credited as "Lip-Gloss-Chick-Who-Poses-On-Motorcycle"). But soon, you may see Fox taking on the role of everyone's favorite 1990s video game heroine, Tomb Raider lead Lara Croft. This casting decision makes me very, very happy. But according to reports, it makes Angelina Jolie very, very pissed.

The next Tomb Raider film is said to focus on Lara Croft's younger years, and Angelina Jolie, 34, is apparently getting a too haggard (by Hollywood standards) to play a young Lara, so Megan (23) has reportedly been tapped for the role. According to an unnamed source quoted by Britain's The Sun tabloid:

"Angie was intent on reprising her role. She feels it's something she helped define and feels robbed that it looks likely to be handed to someone who she considers less capable than her."

And:

 "Angie isn't a fan of the Transformers films and believes Megan won't do the Lara Croft character justice. She's also annoyed because she thinks Megan copies everything from her, from her tattoos to her style."

So the gloves are off and the claws are out!

Leaving aside the issue of whether playing Lara Croft takes some amazing reserve of acting talent, I have a great way to settle the issue: Lingerie pillow-fight. At my house. Of course I would document this battle for the internet, and thus it would be part of my job, and my wife wouldn't be mad.

So which chick is the best Lara Croft? Jolie, Fox, or is there another person who should take the part? Personally, I think G4's Mike D'Alonzo would be perfect in the role -- he's a really good actor.
