That was pretty deep and meaningful there Micha B, nice pun at the end too. Hehe

I'm not threatened by empowered, sexual women at all, but I still think the main idea behind this costume is to appeal to appeal to teenage boys or something, more than a statement about feminiinity. Personally I think that having to use sex appeal to prove independance is a bit weak, there's no reason why women and sexuality have to be linked. Maybe I'm wrong, I don't wanna offend anyone, but all I know is that they could've come up with a better looking costume, the mask is just... wrong!

they should make a catwoman 2 it was so cool

Halle thank you for your dedication on this film. You were wonderful. You made Catwoman your own. I loved every bit!!!!

HALLE!!! U GO GURL!

I had heard that the movie ‘Catwoman’ had received very bad reviews but, despite that, last night I took my two daughters to see it. It was my older daughter’s 17th birthday. Her sister is 9. My teenage daughter had warned me that there were problems with Catwoman’s costume and with the movie in general. She said that it did not conform to the comic books that she loved to read as a young girl. I’m too old to remember much of the details of comics I read as a child.

I loved the movie. And my daughters loved the movie - despite the ‘flawed’ costume. Her single objection was the apparent ‘rips’ on the pant legs which I, perhaps mistakenly, thought were tiger stripes. (My eyes are not what they used to be.) Neither of my daughters had any concerns about the style of the costume. Yes, I thought the headgear was a bit strange looking but it didn’t really concern me.

I was so taken by the movie and also by Halle Berry’s portrayal of the Catwoman, that I decided to check out some of the controversy on the web and this is one of many chat forums that I have come across. It seems to contain generally the same perspectives as the others and I find that interesting.

I’m not a comic book fan. I really know very little about them. Perhaps that made it a little easier for me to accept the movie on its own terms. I’m actually not that worried about the name of Patience Price or the lack of a Batman. What struck me is that the movie seemed to go, reasonably well for Hollowood (typo intentional), into the roots that the comic books themselves must draw from. It even seemed to do this with a certain amount of self-awareness. I was pleasantly surprised to see the connections, however fleeting and superficial, to the Egyptian Goddess Bast. I was also happy to see the hint of awareness of the centuries of struggles that women have had in maintaining their independence, strength, sexuality and mystery.

Unlike the characters of comic books, this difficult history (or ‘herstory’) is real. Comic books are important because they tell important stories in ways that we can understand even as kids. They are today’s myths. Like all myths they change and evolve over generations of retelling these same basic stories. As writer I know that all story tellers need this freedom to re-spin the characters and details to suit their own time and audience. Surprisingly, this telling of the Catwoman myth seemed to be quite aware of it’s own nature – that it is a myth about a myth. That’s how Patience came to understand what had happened to her. She saw that there was a long tradition of Catwomen and that she had, somehow, entered the mysterious flow of this timeless stream.

The animals and faces that we think we see in passing clouds are not real but our ability to imagine them certainly is. Selena Kyle is not real except as ink and memories. Patience Price is not real and is not even a representation of Selena Kyle but on a deeper level she represents a powerful reality that we need to understand: a woman who is strong, independent and sexual has been the target of thousands of years of both attraction and violent hatred. Let me put it in very simplistic terms. For insecure men, such women of power are a threat to their sexuality and their own power. For insecure women, they are a threat to their very survival because they ‘steal’ the men who support them.

Women of power and sexuality who cannot be controlled are branded with unflattering terms such as ‘slut’, ‘whore’, ‘witch’, and so on. Some of these kinds of terms appear on this web page. I’m not blaming any individuals for having these fears - our culture almost guarantees that they will. But more and more, women and men are finding the courage to question these terms and these views of women. I think this movie recognizes that fact. Even the costume works well for me. It is the ‘armor’ of a woman of sexual power. It is a weapon that is aimed, not at the other characters on the screen but at those of us who watch the screen. This website seems to prove that. Sadly, many seem to be offended, perhaps even wounded by the ‘slutty’ style of this costume. I presume it is hitting some very vulnerable spots in our own emotional armor just as Catwomen have always done.

Yes, I was pleased to see a strong, in-your-face, sexually charged, female protagonist on the screen for my daughters to admire and believe in for an hour or so. When we are shamed by our sexuality, it controls us in a negative way. Without going into the details, I believe this negativity is one of the biggest and most important challenges that we face today because it lies at the root of so much suffering. Whether we like it or not, sexuality is a powerful and essential force that defines much of our humanity. It is important to me as a parent that my children are comfortable with their emerging sexuality and thus are better able to have responsible enjoyment of it with whomever they choose when they are adults.

If this posting is ‘too long’ I apologize. I couldn’t really think of a way of making my point except to take this much of your time and space. I appreciate your Patience. I trust it has no Price. :)

Four times in one day!? Man you're obsessed!

Halle Berry was awesome!!!!!! I'm going to see it for the fourth time today!

Hate. Stop with the hate. You know you love it. Stop the haterade. And, you can't lie, it's better than that other crappy costume.

I'm not sure this costume really classifies as a "bikini" but if it's skimpy outfits you're talkin about well I just don't know where to begin... besides Wonderwoman there's Starfire, Witchblade, lady Death, Fathom, Vampirella, Angela, Elektra, Psylocke, She-Hulk, Emma Frost,and heaps more! No bikini super heroines.... are you people high?

ummm... u do realize that absolutely no guy on earth cared about the actual movie ...right every1? its all about her body... the costume was right for her... imagine her in michelle pfeifer's costume.. yih

btw u guyz say no other superheroes wore bikinis... how bout wonderwoman idiots!!

Halley Fan, that was one of the worst posts I've ever been witness to, it went all over the place! Were your drunk when you wrote that? Call the queer eye gang, this person needs a makeover!
