I've been a fan of Catwoman all my life. If they dressed Batman in a black suit would all you Batman fans be satisfied? NO! Where's her cowel? She's a character is a comic book and again Nolan has shown no respect for these characters. She looks like shit. She makes Halle Berry looks good. Even the goggles are terrible. I'm SO dissapointed in this and can't wait until Nolan and his crap Batman films dissapear. Bring on the re-boot if the is a so called Catwoman costume. One of the female icons of our generation! Seems like Nolan left the Cat out of Catwoman. This SUCKS!!!!!
You're judging an entire interpretation of a character on ONE picture. Out of a possible 2 and a half hour film, you're judging it on ONE frame? She does not look like shit. She is a Cat burgular, when you are trying to steal something you want to try and draw as little attention to yourself as you can. A big cowl shaped like a cat is the opposite of not drawing attention. A character is more than a costume, why don't you wait until the film comes out before judging what she's like on y'know important things like PERFORMANCE and PORTRAYAL OF CHARACTER.
As a life long fan of Catwoman, you should know that she has undergone many different portrayals of her character and appearance since her introduction over 70 years ago. This will just be another one. Will it be the definitive one? Who knows! But it's the portrayal most suitable to this film.

For all you idiot "bat fans" who are saying she's stolen the goggles, you obviously know nothing about the character - she wears goggles as part of her outfit in the modern comics - she also wears her cowel however. Why not just get rid of Batmans outfit, after all Nolan doesn't think he's making a comic book movie and he has no respect for any other character. He should f off and do a thriller. He's destroying these iconic characters by making them boring. I don't want realisim, I want the comic adaption - bring back Tim Burton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You're accusing people of knowing nothing about the character when you fail to realise SHE'S A THIEF. The idea of her stealing the goggles is a perfectly valid theory. Maybe, just MAYBE she doesn't start off as Catwoman, MAYBE this is her origin and she's going to grow throughout the film. We have no idea where in the film this shot occurs. MAYBE by the end of the film she will have a cowl (A stuntwoman on set has been pictured holding a facemask that is 'cat-like') Did you ever think of that? NO, because you were too busy being a fanboy/girl, jumping to conclusions and throwing a massive bitch fit.
No respect for the character? Are you fucking serious? Both Nolan brothers and Goyer have gone to unbelievable lengths to make sure the characters are faithful to the characters in the comic book, ok maybe some elements of their origin (like Two-Face getting burned by an explosion instead of acid) or appearance (No Venom pumps on Bane) are different but there is no shadow of a doubt that these representations are HUGELY faithful to the actual characters of the comics. Every single character in Nolan's Batman universe has been given huge amounts of depth never before seen in a film portrayal. And you're missing the key word ADAPTATION, meaning changing something from one medium to another, some things do not work in one medium that they may do in another. It may need to change or ADAPT in order to work. It's the key thing fanboys/girls like you completely fail to understand.
Bring back Tim Burton? You do know that Burton never cared about the character of Batman or Bruce Wayne? He was always more interested in the villains and not even portraying them as they were in the comics properly. Since when was Catwoman a psychotic killer dressed in fetish wear or when was Penguin a disfigured mutant freak, They never were, it was his INTERPRETATION.

I don't trust in Nolan at all - he's a pretentious little prick who only got such good reviews for TDK because Ledger kicked the bucket when it was coming out. Ledger was shit as the Joker and he certainly wouldn't have won anything if he'd lived. Nolan has shown with every Batman film that he doesn't care about the characters - he just cares about realisim. His films are destroying the Batman franchise. How dare he disrespect characters like this? Bob Kane must be spinning in his grave. First scarecrow was shit, Ras al ghul was shit, the joker was shit - and now Catwoman.
Because "Nolan we Know Sucks!"
Pretentious? You have completely no understanding of this word, neither do most of the people who use it on the internet. It's the most overused word used by people who think because somethings a bit different or slightly intelligent but that person doesn't get it then it's automatically labelled 'Pretentious'. I think you'll find in every review of Dark Knight that reviewers give praise to more than just Ledger's performance plus there was Oscar talk 2 months before he died when the first footage of him was released, so your argument falls flat on it's face there. As i've said previously Nolan has probably shown more care than anyone who has adapted Batman outside the comics (possibly only outdone by Paul Dini and Bruce Timm of the animated Batman adaptations). Actually "Nolan We Know Sucks" He actually doesn't, he's a tremendous film-maker who's managed to create intelligent satisfying Blockbusters that rely more on character than CGI. And has earned rave reviews for EVERY SINGLE film he has made. And regardless of what you think, he's held in high regard by critics, fans and general audiences alike.
To be honest, I can't even believe I took the time to reply to this post. You're nothing more than a narrow minded, ignorant internet troll. You're exactly the reason why people make fun of people who are fans of the comics and people who comment on the internet, and you're exactly the type of person that makes me want to stop going onto internet message boards. So why don't you go away, learn to back up your statements with proof, not jump to conclusions, gain some intelligence and most of all show some fucking perspective.
