Anne Hathaway Is Going To Kill The New Batman [the show]

I am very shocked and surprised that this Catwoman suit looks so well lame. I mean I have seen better photos at comic con of people dressed as Catwoman. But here is a article I found on it.

Where are Catwoman’s ears? And what’s up with her eyewear, perhaps more reminiscent of BluBlockers than something a Gotham City villain would rock?

Those were among our first questions in August when we checked out the first official photo of Anne Hathaway in character. Newly published paparazzi pics from the Los Angeles set of “The Dark Knight Rises,” however, might deliver answers to both of those geeky queries. The new shots appear to suggest Catwoman’s glasses flip up to create ear-like points above her head. Function and form!

In a sense, then (and if this hypothesis is correct), Hathaway’s full costume was on display back in August, just not in a recognizable or complete form. The glasses-into-ears theory appears to be a more logical one than another bit of superhero speculation out there: that Catwoman’s mask, based on those hollow-looking ears and some similar design lines, is actually Batman’s mask, artfully mangled. While Hathaway’s character clearly does a bit of borrowing (or, more likely, stealing) from Bruce Wayne, as in the photo where she rides his Batpod, we’re not sold on the similarity between each mask.

The rest of the costume, as revealed in the new photos, is largely what we’ve already seen: lots of tight leather and a pair of dangerously high-heel boots; we can understand why Hathaway has previously cracked that she is living on kale and dust, just so she can slip into the ensemble. According to Hathaway, the collective reaction to the first look at her Catwoman costume — including in some corners within the MTV Newsroom — was a resounding, “Meh.” But the actress also promised us that we’ve only seen “about a tenth of what that suit can do.”

    [..YouTube..] Lets not be to harsh about what we see here, especialy Catwoman! There were a lot of things that displeased people about pictures of Dark knight before, and it turned out great! I do not share the actual pessimism! Anne Hathaway looks great for me!

    [..YouTube..] @KungVanargand I just think they should have released promo photos so that people know it will turn out ok because as it stands now it looks pretty bad

    [..YouTube..] everything about from the leaked photos of DKR looked awesome Selina’s costume and Bane’s mask are better than the spidey’s costume reboot and all character from avenger. Chris Nolan is a genius
