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

So I have to wonder what you mean by “fanservice-y”?
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.
It is entirely possible to have a sexualized character to be well written and vital to the story they are in.
What’s the funniest thing you’ve heard a child cry about?
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:
One of my favorite examples, Jessica Rabbit:
Lara Croft is the main character of her games and movies, and Tifa is a valuable support character in her games and movies.
Hillary thinks we must censor or "we lose total control". Why does she demand total control?
Thanks, Toyman, for clearing that up.
Let's be honest, her entire character is the epitome of the sexy pinup girl that Hollywood has pushed on us for generations.
