There’s been reports that Hathaway’s Catwoman was going to be less sexy and more tactical, so I guess there’s that explanation but Hathaway looks a little silly, no? Granted, she’s credited as Selina Kyle here so maybe there’s a little more to Catwoman than what this picture (officially released by Warner Bros) shows but I feel like I’m going to laugh every time I see her in the movie.

Richard
Saturday, August 6, 2011 at 3:13 PMWhat spoiler?
Chris
Saturday, August 6, 2011 at 8:25 PMI’m assuming they meant having the articles picture visible in the article preview. I’m kind of disappointed too now.. I wanted to see as little of this as I could before it came out.
Richard
Saturday, August 6, 2011 at 11:15 PMBut you’ll see more than the above picture as you line up to get your ticket at the cinema.
In any event, I don’t see how it classifies as a spoiler. Thats unless a picture of a person on a bike is enough to spoil it for you in which case you were likely going to have it ruined many times over well before next yeas opening.

Sunday, August 7, 2011 at 12:55 AMNot if you avoid trailers and the like.
This is something neither Max nor I wanted to see, and now that we’ve seen it on the front page, we wish we hadn’t.
Is that so wrong?
MotorMouth
Sunday, August 7, 2011 at 10:50 AMNot wrong, per se, but definitely stupid. It’s a photo that gives nothing away except that Catwoman wears goggles when she’s riding. I can’t see any way at all that will spoil the film for you or anyone else. After all, there will be trailers that give far more away and you’re not going to be able to avoid them.
Chris
Sunday, August 7, 2011 at 7:45 PMDon’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining, I’m just disappointed that this character was revealed to me no matter the method. You can’t argue that. And I simply answered Richard’s question as he asked one.
Richard
Sunday, August 7, 2011 at 4:08 PMYeah but the point is you havent even seen a trailer…you saw a picture. The posters littered around the cinema are going to contain imagery from the film also so you aren’t going to avoid it.
I could understand if the title gave you information on the film or if it had a trailer that auto played when the article opened (why someone avoiding spoilers even opened the article I don’t know however), but this really doesn’t give anything away at all.
I can understand not wanting a film to be spoilt….I’ve avoided trailers for a few films in the past and likely will for the Alien prequel next year…but the above is certainly not even in the same ballpark as a spoiler.
Chris
Sunday, August 7, 2011 at 7:48 PMI wish I didn’t see a character that I saw. That is a fact. I answered you question too. Just, stop… :P

Monday, August 8, 2011 at 1:59 PMA ridiculous comment, when you are watching tv and the trailer comes on what are you going to do? What about when you watch this movie and beforehand the trailers come one? Do you get up and leave? What a ridiculous comment.
Chris
Monday, August 8, 2011 at 6:38 PMYou are just as ignorant as the 2 posters replying to my posts.
Richard asked a question and I answered it. Now, all three of you think I’m trying to justify Max’s problem with this article – I’m not!
I’m disappointed that I can’t avoid things like this, but I’m not complaining about this article though, I’m answering someone’s question by relating to the opinion of Max’s. He complained – not me. Are you all blind?
Far out, you’re like a bunch of five year olds crying over nothing, except 5 years have the capacity to read.

Saturday, August 6, 2011 at 10:59 AMStill pictures will never give a judge of catwoman quality, it’s about the fluidity of the motion, the jumping, running, even the little strut.

Saturday, August 6, 2011 at 11:08 AM..you’d prefer Halle Berry, Casey?

Saturday, August 6, 2011 at 11:21 AMagree, what make her look like “cat” woman? in tha picture she just look like some chick in a black jumpsuit with oakley ski goggle.
T-bone
Saturday, August 6, 2011 at 1:41 PMShe still looks pretty durn sexy if you ask me.
Michael
Saturday, August 6, 2011 at 2:33 PMEveryone thought the idea of Heath Ledger playing the Joker was stupid before it came out as well, and look how that turned out.
I’ll reserve judgment till I’ve seen it.
Jacob
Saturday, August 6, 2011 at 3:12 PMConsider how awful the original series was; lazily written, copied verbatim from comic books, zero character development, and marketed to adults but written for the 8-11 age group.
The previous films from the dark night series are all fantastic, which use the characters and work their own way, why should this be any different?
Do you really want another remake of batman and robin?
Richard
Saturday, August 6, 2011 at 3:15 PMShes on a bike…I imagine in the scene she’ll be shooting around at a pretty decent pace. The “Sexy” probably won’t be so important for the scene and the mask could just be for the scene. Meh.
This picture isn’t exactly a good way to judge the character.

Saturday, August 6, 2011 at 5:07 PMBest Catwoman is Tim Burton’s in my opinion.
Spock
Saturday, August 6, 2011 at 5:17 PM“How awesome the new Superman looked”
Is this like, a massive prank that everyone but myself is taking part in? He looks ridiculous.
If Anne would lose the goggles, there wouldn’t be much of a problem here. If she’d strip down to nothing but her boots, I reckon there’d be an Oscar in it.
Steve
Saturday, August 6, 2011 at 5:24 PMWe don’t know if this is the full costume. A stunt double was spotted wearing and holding a more traditional mask. This is probably a preliminary ‘action outfit’, similar to how the first Bale costume was just the unpainted body armour + balaklava.

Saturday, August 6, 2011 at 7:20 PMJust put some cat ears on her and its all good.
James
Saturday, August 6, 2011 at 7:51 PMMy understanding is this isn’t a picture released by Warner Bros. They are waiting to release a better picture of her. I think this a pre-final costume to be honest.
Have faith in Christian Noel

Sunday, August 7, 2011 at 1:03 AMHalle Berry, any day!
Comment skeptic
Sunday, August 7, 2011 at 9:34 AM‘A picture is worth a thousand words’, whether those words have any type of relevance is another story! It may be a little early to make judgments about a movie from one photo that may not have anything to do with the final cut.

Sunday, August 7, 2011 at 9:48 AM“Where is the sexy?” A red blooded man defenetly didn’t write that. Hathaway = Prrrrrfect.
MotorMouth
Sunday, August 7, 2011 at 10:48 AMDoes it occur to anyone that she is riding a motorcycle and those could just be the goggles she wears while doing that?
Richard
Sunday, August 7, 2011 at 4:11 PMExactly…

Monday, August 8, 2011 at 8:46 AMA friend made a good call that she looks like an adult version of Spy Kids 3D.
Azza
Monday, August 8, 2011 at 9:47 AMCatwoman with Halle Berry was the worst movie I’ve seen in my life. I can honestly say that I have never seen anything worse.
TC
Monday, August 8, 2011 at 10:08 AMI like the new look. “Catwoman” now makes more sense, wearing a military style Cat suit, built for espionage, stealth, robbery, all attributes of the original comic book character.
Nathan
Monday, August 8, 2011 at 11:38 AMWhat about the last one wasn’t Grade A Cheddar.
It had some awesome action sequences and Heath Ledger’s performance, while slightly heightened by his untimely death, was really the only non action bright light in what was a heavy handed moral lesson with cheesy dialogue that was on par with, realised after a recent regretted re-watch, ‘The Untouchables’.
‘Because you were the best of us! He wanted to prove that even someone as good as you could fall.’ (In full breathy/growly voice.)

Monday, August 8, 2011 at 1:38 PM<3 Anne Hathaway but … hrm…
I suppose, if she's looking to stretch herself this'd be the way to do it!

Friday, August 12, 2011 at 9:58 AMIm so bummed this wil be the last Nolan batman. I really wanted to see his take on other batman characters like Robin, Croc, Hugo, Penguin, Freeze, Batgirl, Harley, Ivy and the Riddler to name a few.
