First Pic of Halle as Catwoman

Did a search and didn't find this posted, so here ya go...

http://superherohype.com/catwoman/index.php?id=207

My take... the mask looks dorky as hell. The rest of the costume is pretty hot... although the open-toe shoes/boots are logically a pretty stupid idea for someone who's gonna be fighting. I still prefer the tight bodysuit look, but hey.

For some reason I can't post it.

According to Halle, it's "very bare, very urban, very downtown." How about dumb as hell.

I don't care how much skin they show, I liked Michelle Pfeiffer's look better.

Huh, I thought a fourth Batman movie was still just rumours and inneundo at this point.

I think the mask, while not great, is the only tolerable part of that costume. It looks like they pinned Halle's head on some outfit from an issue of Penthouse.

GOod god! What were they going for, 80's hair band?

Yea I gotta second that they just use Pfieffers' full body costume. That one was pretty cool.

Somewhere in america Earth Kit is clawing her eyes out. I will second (edit- third that) that the look Burton gave to Catwoman was about 100000000000000000000000000 times better than this piece o'crap. What next? Nipples on the Batsu....oh nevermind.

If this really is Halle in the suit then it confims my opinion that this movie will suck, big time. Tim Burton had the right idea with his Catwoman--sleek and sexy. This is just plain stupid and trashy.

I expect the next revelation will be that Catwoman will be directed by Orson Welles.

The sad thing is that they probably spent a lot of effort on trying to be creative and inventive. Instead, they could've just gone for the full vinyl "cat suit" a la Underworld and traditional Catwoman and it would've probably looked better. And hotter.

While I reserve full judgement until I see the thing in motion, I've seen plenty of superhero costumes that looked crappy in their promotional, but ended up looking alright in the end.

But I have a hard time thinking that will look decent at some point in time.....

Looking at the Burton version and the comic version again, I think the biggest problem is that the mask looks ten times stupider without the neck being covered as part of the costume. It'd be like Bruce Wayne wearing the Batman mask with no shirt on... it'd look ridiculous. The Rambo dominatrix look would look better on a character with long flowing hair... with a mask it just doesn't match at all.

As for the mask, the ears are too damn big. I keep thinking of Mickey Mouse ears. And lastly, maybe it's just the expression on her face, but Halle just looks dorky here. Her body is smokin', but facially she just doesn't have the look for this.

I'd like to subscribe to the theory that Warner Bros. will get the "micromanaging idiot factor" out of its system in Catwoman, leaving Christopher Nolan, David Goyer and Christian Bale the freedom to make a great Batman. If only I could be sure of that...
