Are fanservice-y characters (i.e. Lara Croft, Tifa Lockhart) immediately bad?

Still, Jessica is well written, and an important part of the movie story. Particularly when we realize everything she did in the movie was because she genuinely loved her husband:

Let's be honest, her entire character is the epitome of the sexy pinup girl that Hollywood has pushed on us for generations.

Thanks, Toyman, for clearing that up.

Why did you put a guy’s dick in your mouth the first time?

It is entirely possible to have a sexualized character to be well written and vital to the story they are in.

How a character is written and how a character is drawn are two different things, and usually the product of two (or more) different people.

One of my favorite examples, Jessica Rabbit:

Has anyone who has been a victim of a narcissist made contact with the other victims of the narcissist? Did it help to confirm what you suspected about the narcissists?

Lara Croft is the main character of her games and movies, and Tifa is a valuable support character in her games and movies.

So I have to wonder what you mean by “fanservice-y”?
