Puurfect DC

Catwoman aka Selina Kyle has always been one of my favorite characters from the Batman movies. Perhaps her best appearance is in Tim Burton's Batman Returns. Here she is played by the beautiful Michelle Pfeiffer. Here we see Selina Kyle become the Catwoman in a glorious montage in her apartment when she returns from "dying" and becomes another person. And she decides this is the best moment to make a super sexy leather costume to run around doing bad things in. And while she's running into Batman and Penguin as Catwoman her Selina persona is getting closer to Bruce Wayne aka Batman (for those that don't know ;p ). But Tim Burton does a great job in executing Catwoman in all her adventure loving ways and the importance of her relationship with Batman.She has some pretty cool action scenes and is a wonderful scene grabber. Plus she had an awesome costume that hasn't been matched by anyone else so far.

The next portrayal of Catwoman that we see is in Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises where she is played by Anne Hathaway. Here we see more attention given to her anti-hero side as ,while she doesn't agree with it, she helps Batman in his endeavors. This movie doesn't go into her origins. but does focus more on her thief background. Her costume is also more like Batman's with her having a utility belt to play with and her cat ears are actually goggles with nifty features. Her Selina Kyle persona also still gets in close with Batman as she is the one to run away with him. And she has some awesome action sequences and kicks lots of ass in her impressive heels.

No Catwoman has been announced for the Batman reboot yet but she may come out again some where down the line. Until then have a great week everyone! 
  
(In case anyone is wondering where the 2004 Catwoman movie is: the reason it isn't included is because the character that is called catwoman is Patience Phillips and not Selina Kyle making her an invalid addition. Plus it was a terrible movie anyway.)
