    Both/Either...

    I can't really comment on whether or not she can pull of the role based on her acting abliities since I have seen very little of her work...so I will take your word for it. However...she looks nice enough so that may help some...but looks didn't help that sorry-**** movie Halle Berry was in.

    As to you being a ****...you know yourself better than I...so I will take your word for that as well. :wink:

    Give her a chance Brett, she held her own very well opposite Meryl Streep. Anne has slowly but surely been working her way into serious roles, and doing well in them. And Toxis nailed it with Heath Ledger as well, and we know how that turned out.

    I loved Halle Berry in Catwoman, I liked the movie as well. The biggest challenge for Anne will be to handle the challenge of the physicality of the role. Both Michelle & Halle excelled in doing so.

    Anyway I have loved the reboots of Batman, and I'm looking forward to seeing this one as well.

    Could someone clue me into the villain please, I stopped reading the comics eons ago so I don't know of him.

    Bane....

    I wouldn't say he's Batman's arch-nemesis, but he's definitely pretty much his equal in strength and especially intelligence (which Batman and Robin completely dropped the balled on).

    He's also rather infamous for breaking Batman's back and paralyzing him for a period of time in the early '90's comics.

    mila kunis? i dont see her pullin off cat woman unfortunately. i think anne hathaway will surprise up quite nicely.

    I could totally see Mila as Catwoman...

    I think Anne Hathaway has what it takes as well, but I'm not sure she would've been my first choice.

    Mila Kunis was in Max Payne. She played Mona Sax. Wasn't THAT convincing but I guess she could work as Catwoman. I think Anne Hathaway will be better at it. Catwoman is supposed to be "girly" and "frail" in her mild-mannered alter ego and turns in to badass acrobat chick as Catwoman. I don't see Kunis being able to pull that civilian identity off as well as Anne could. The Catwoman persona is a bit easier IMO to accomplish because the mask means facial expressions are muted and won't betray poor acting.

    Either way, I don't think Anne will be as campy as Uma Thurman as Poison Ivy:

    Or as haphazard and Denny's-like in mediocrity as Alicia Silverstone as Batgirl:

    Although, Michelle Pfeiffer as catwoman was campy as well but at least it was convincing.

    I mean, even that crappy, bubblegum and lollipops '60's garbage they called Batman was better than the last Catwoman. Although Halle Berry's costume left little to be desired and was probably the only redeeming value to that steaming pile of donkey excrement.

    I dont really find Uma Thurman attractive at all...if she played Catwoman, or any other role where half the premise of the movie was to look hot, I wouldn't even stream it on my free netflix trial.

    She's an okay actress...but I really hated the Kill Bill series, but I don't really put the blame on her.

    Kate Beckinsale looks pretty damn hot in leather, though I'm not sure I'd peg her as Catwoman

    Don't know about "Baby Puncher", but the pic of the NCIS gal makes the words "Roller Derby" come to mind.

    It's just a shame in film reboot after film reboot all we get to see is the same characters over and over again, there's so many characters in these comic book worlds to choose from. I just don't get it.

    Here's better pic...

    She's' been topless on a couple occasions in movies if you're that interested in her front bits.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.
