Best live-action version of Catwoman? - Page 3

*IMJ* · 01-12-2022, 04:31 PM

Everyone in this thread should be careful or else a morally authoritative lefty might show up and admonish everyone for supporting "the male gaze" when it comes to Catwoman.

Catwoman will be lost to us forever. It's already happening in some articles that are crapping on the Akham Asylum art designs.

Google Image says she grew up pretty nice. Although I'm certainly not going to dig too deeply because most of the pictures of her are from when she was a kid and it seems like the kind of stuff that gets you put on a watchlist.

No opinion on her as Selina, I only probably saw her in like three episodes. I remember that her insistence on being called "Cat" was just as cringe as everything else on that stupid show.

Regardless, none of these chicks ever took a baseball bat-size weiner up their tailpipe (at least not on camera). So Tori Black is STILL the overwhelming best Catwoman ever. To disagree means you don't go on the right websites.

Bruce Timm as always set a new standard on how low her zipper could god own to.

I'm surprised they've never toned down Catwoman from being sexualized. In today's modern world you'd think they would go after her.

She was alright, a bit overused which meant she had a lot of bad despite having great scenes as catwoman.

Weren't they planning on making a spin-off show that focuses on this series' Bruce Wayne becoming Batman and Selina as Catwoman or am I just misremembering?

See post #42. It was a joke for the board, but the foundation regarding the Arkham games was true.

I think that was from one of the animated shorts they put in as a bonus feature on some of the animated movie DVDs. I forget which one it's from.

It was a scene from Batman Year One

Thanks, it's been a while. I knew it was one of those things but it's honestly been so long since I watched any of them a lot of it runs together in my brain.

I know this is about the favored live action Catwoman... but in comics, I've always been partial to the Jim Balent era.

~~Leo656~~ · 01-13-2022, 03:03 AM

Definitely a classic era.

Still... Best Catwoman is still Tori Black.

Now. Then. FOREVER.

....Sadly I can't share any pictures from the "movie" where she actually played the role. But I can assure you, her performance was Oscar-worthy (and Steve-worthy, and Brent-worthy, and whichever other guys were around, I'm sure). And if you haven't seen it yet, you need to f*cking do that like Right Now.

Don't say I never gave ya nothin', nerds.

Me too. Year One was decent but TDKR with Weller was awful and between those releases I had forgotten about their existence.

That Jim Balent series was really solid. I wasn't into it when it came out, but I've been buying it out of bargain bins for ten years now and if anything it's a gorgeous book.

Balent went into skin books with his "Tarot" series which is.... very strange material.

I also saw this video for the first time today. The three original Catwomen presented an award many years ago at the TV Land Awards.

Variety ranked 8 of the live-action Catwomen.
