Thank you for jumping in, that's very helpful! I've done some more googling and the 2018 movie seems to have some backstory differences, plus there's a potential sequel that could change things further and at least a few female supporting characters in the first movie. The Angelina Jolie movies do seem to have an even more male dominant cast though, you're correct.
We use non-canonical fandom tags for other universes that need to be split for reasons like this, so we can definitely still split regardless of the usual video game tag. It sounds like if, for example, someone wanted original series Lara paired with someone from a different timeline there'd be differences between that pairing vs. one the same pairing with the Lara from the same timeline?
If that's correct, I'd propose splitting nominations between the following, and any comics or novels can be linked to their respective timelines (or people can make a case by case argument to separate the movies/books/comics further if they think that's more appropriate):
Tomb Raider - Original Timeline, which would include the Angelina Jolie movies
Tomb Raider - Legend Reboot
Tomb Raider - 2013 Survivor Reboot, or we could use one of the Tomb Raider 2013 canonical tags, but I don't think that's as clear
Tomb Raider (2018)
I'll ask the other nominator for their opinion, let me know if that works for you or if I've misunderstood anything about the canon!
