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

Thanks, Toyman, for clearing that up.

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:

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

How were cows used in ancient India?

One of my favorite examples, Jessica Rabbit:

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.

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

Can you turn 150 pages into a 5 minute presentation before a meeting?

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”?
