Sure, the role would've been different. I always found Bening's casting unusual too, but Burton must've seen something wacky in it. I'm glad it was Pfeiffer in the end... she gave us all a Catwoman worth remembering. :cwink:
 
You can't judge based on a performance you've never seen. Bening was an Oscar winner prior to Returns. She's a terrific actress. There's really nothing to suggest she couldn't have been as good as Pfeiffer.
Looking at her Wiki, Bening was only ever nom'd for Oscars. Yeah, I know Michelle hasn't won 1 either, but still...
 
I'm surprised Pfeiffer took the role... what with the fact that she had dated Keaton before (and obviously they were no longer together). So, I guess their break up was amicable?
I was thinking the same thing. It was probably a mutual break up. Keaton seems like a great guy so I can't picture anyone really having any problems with him, unless they're intimidated by his panther eyes :woot:

There was a number of factors in Pfeiffer's decision...

She desperately wanted to work with Burton, she remained very good friends with Michael Keaton... and she got a pretty good nudge from her agent to be in something commercial. :cwink:

She would have been insane to turn down the role...
 
I posted my other one in the 89 thread, So i figured i should post this one also.

I liked it too, but much of the panels were very small, in order too tell the whole story.
 
Never seen this picture before!!! Sweet. I also adore the other pics you posted, 'specially the first one; wasn't it taken under a black-light or something to get the surreal coloring? Soooooo pretty...

Here is another one :woot:

Anyone ever wonder if Batman tears the cowl literally every time he takes it off?
 
I just noticed that the picture on the top left on the back of the Blu-Ray has DeVito photoshopped out.

Haha I actually went to look at this on the back of my BR blu ray case. I never noticed it. Either that or they shot a separate picture of Batman without Devito.

We really need more pictures in this thread. It seems like there aren't that many promotional images or behind the scenes shots from Batman Returns floating around on the internet. I'll try to find some more later on.

I just had to post those Catwoman pictures. Michelle is so beautiful and she looks incredibly sexy in the Catwoman promotional shots. She was probably the first female I ever thought was hott.

Very Nice and we will see won't we?

Naturally... as Anne Hathaway will be shiny new and dripped in REALISM.

Michelle has about another year of glory left before she goes the way of Nicholson.
 
Nah, no one will ever overshadow her.

Well Hathaway will never surpass Michelle in terms of acting ability...

After Heath... its my favourtite and most accomplished Bat-villian performance.
