Well, I will say Michelle Phieffer was the best Catwoman, because I didn't see the Catwoman movie and hardly ever watch the Batman TV series.

Lee Meriwether was great, but Pfeiffer was given an infinetly superior script to work with than the others, so it's hard to compare them straight up. The 60's women were playing 2D and camp, Pfeiffer was doing something a million years away from that approach.

Eartha Kitt made "Prrrrrfect" a catch phrase.
Julie Newmar made the role campy, and brought a sexuality to Catwoman.
Lee Meriwether made the movie when Julie Newmar couldn't do it.
Halle Berry needed a summer vehicle, and didn't care how faithful the material was, or how good the director was, as long as she could wear the suit and make a vanity project out of it for herself.

Michelle Pfeiffer owned the role. I only wish she could've been given the chance to kick the crap out of Sean Young in a catfight. :up:

I like this shot. It sums up a lot about Catwoman. You can see so much anger and pain. That moment is very emotional for her, and quite powerful. It's about doing the right thing for Batman or the deserved thing for Shreck. She has the outfit of Catwoman, but the face of Selina. She is confused and gives in to the easiest option. This is what Catwoman is about. She is complex, and has difficult choices. That's why this Catwoman and Michelle Pfeiffer were so perfect.

I think this poll is a trick question.

Simply put, you've got three camps:

1)The 60's TV girls
2)Pfeiffer/Selina Kyle
3)Whatever Halle Berry was

Sure, you can compare Merriweather, Kitt, and Newmar to one another, as they were all playing a very cartoony, campy character. BTW, I'm torn betyween Newmar and Kitt. Both did sexy pretty well, and Newmar was gorgeous, but Kitt had that extra smokiness...

However, Pfeiffer and Berry were two completely different characters, with different motivations, different emotions, etc. Sure, they were both "Catwomen," but they were just so utterly different as characters that it's not really logical to compare them.

Great pic. I love that sexy & tasty look of Michelle there. And just because some people don't like her as Catwoman don't mean they have no respect for the character at all. Not everybody like the same person in the role like her. Some like Eartha Kitt or Julie Newmar, etc. Doesn't mean they have no respect with liking either of 'em if not Michelle.

Phiffer, without a shadow of a doubt.

However, you can't blame Barry for that completely.

It's like blaming only Clooney for Batman & Robin.

No, the huge pile of suck that was Catwoman was a group effort my friends, a group effort between writers, producers, and directors. Not just Halle Barry.

Although her mangling certainly didn't help.

Agreed. I had a girlfriend who was a Bruce Willis maniac, so we had to watch The Story of Us. Pfeiffer looked positively stunning in that movie, and it actually was a rather well-done "chick flick."

Yeesh. Now that I've admitted to liking a chick flick, I have to go do a keg stand and watch some porno to reassert my manhood. FOOTBALL!

Really? You guys think Pfeiffer is good looking? Huh.

I'm hopeful we'll be able to see a cool Catwoman in the future. But until that time, I've yet to see a performance that I like. But since Pfeiffer is the only live-action Catwoman I've seen, my vote goes to her.

I donīt want to know who you like, Pfeiffer may not be the greatest looking woman in the world but is still beatiful, oozes sex appeal like no other woman can, has great voice, etc...
What was done with Catwoman in BR is perhaps the best or at least the most ambitious take on the charcater.

Well, for me it's Newmar, mostly because a few years before that, she had a role in a TV series where she played a sexy robot (no lie!) and I kinda had a childish crush on her since that. And that was only reaffirmed when she became Catwoman. Rrrroowwwrr!

Julie Newmar! I used to watch the old batman and robin as a kid and then I watched it again when I was like 16 and I always loved her as catwoman.

Michelle Pfeiifer plays a good S&M catwoman, sexy and very cool costume.

Halle was just a replacement, good actress but they shouldn't of had a new catwoman!

And, really.....I hated her Catwoman concept (that whole die, get bitten by radioactice cats, come back to life thing)......but her performance simply rose above and beyond it all and she pwned I think. Even though she wasn't really THE catwoman we all know and love....she certainly emobdied enough of her to stand out.

Sorry, but were you waching the same film as everyone else? She never died, she just suffered head trauma, and was surrounded by cats.

Well, it's true that Burton has said that the cats are "sort of" bringing her back to life, but it was just that, intended to be symbolic. She didn't actually die.

Random Catwoman Question: What the hell does CINO stand for?

*****

I voted no one in the poll because I have never seen a proper Catwoman on film. Out of the six cat-related Bat villains I have to say Newmar is the best because she gave me boners when I was a wee lad.

The lady who does the Catwoman voice on BTAS is only Catwoman imo.

Anyone who disagrees has no respect for the character at all.
hmm...yeah, that's complete bullsh-t. anyone who thinks a super weak, lonely catlady selina kyle is the real catwoman has no respect for the character. but i don't really mean that. what i mean is your statement is the overstatement of the century. if you like that catwoman, that's cool. but personally that selina kyle is the worst interpretation of all time. not her fault, it's the writers. but the point is, selina kyle wouldn't let anyone walk all over her, and she isn't some lonely woman who loves cats and talks to them and lives like a little girl. and catwoman isn't this weak selina kyle who was given 9 lives from the licks and bites of some alley cats. that's a ridiculous interpretation. but again, it's cool if you like it, but i'm saying it is in no way a definitive version of the character.

PERSONALLY i think selina kyle should be a much stronger character. BUT it's cool if you like the batman returns catwoman. i just don't think anyone should say that's the only version of the character and that anyone who disagrees doesn't respect the character, because i feel that version didn't do selina kyle, or catwoman justice. pfeiffer played it well. but i just don't like that take on the character.
