The suckage of Hathaways Catwoman


ok so once upon a time michelle pfieffer created a perfect, deep, iconic portrayel of catwoman in the 90's that stuck to the roots of the character while going far more darker and deeper. the recent batman movie had hathaway in the role now. i was willing to give her a chance, even though she is an ugly duckling with very little sex appeal. however i was NOT prepared for the absolute catwoman suckage that came from her from this movie. pfieffer has nothing to worry about someone stealing her spot. hathaway looked utterly rediculous trying to be sassy but she came off as a total hussy b*tch girl who looked like a emo biker chick. she has not nearly the depth or tragic character that michelle put into the role. michelles was an artful tragic soulful catwoman who was opressed by the male elite and finally strikes back and was much more pschycotic and dangerous and actually wore a COWL to hide her face and had the famous iconic WHIP. hathaway had a GUN. lol. laaaaaaaaaaame. im very dissapointed in the new one, she was such a one note 2 dimensional character unlike michelle's brilliantly crazy sexy cool catwoman who knew how to keep batman at bay while tempting him and was a relatable and likeable character before and after she donned the costume. hathaway i just wanted to bitchslap multiple times especially when she was trying to act all serious with those assinine deadpan expressions tryin to be all "bad girl" but came off as an annoying little twat. when they locked her away i constantly wished they just threw away the key. just a totally unlikeable character. michelles still shines years later, hathaway is the weakest of all the catwomans.

You completely show the weakness of your argument the minute you sound just like another disgruntled fan of "Michelle". The Catwoman Pfeiffer played was a different character that was not ANY closer to the actual comic book character than Hathaway is. Get over it.

Also you do know that actresses do not write their part, yes? Pfeiffer played the part she was assigned (and has sucked in everything else ever since). Hathaway was cast for that part because they weren't going for a curvy femme fatale psycho, they were going for a different character.
