From the original series to the cartoons to the Christopher Nolan reboot, here’s a ranking of all the Catwomans. Er, Catwomen?
Halle Berry in Catwoman
On the plus side: This is one of the sexiest Catwoman costumes. And it's always nice to see a Catwoman of color.
On the minus side: Everything else. Catwoman has nothing to do with Batman — and while that's not necessarily the worst thing, it's just a terrible movie in its own right.
Warner Bros. Pictures
Eliza Dushku in Batman: Year One
On the plus side: Great, modern costume. Eliza Dushku, who kicked ass on Buffy and Dollhouse, is right for the part.
On the minus side: Frank Miller's take on Catwoman shows her origins as a dominatrix. And while there's nothing wrong with being a sex worker, it cheapens the character of Catwoman.
Warner Home Video
Nika Futterman in Batman: The Brave and the Bold
On the plus side: Fun throwback costume that gives the character a '60s feel.
On the minus side: Catwoman just isn't as well developed here, mostly appearing as a villain. The character works best when she's given a little more complexity.
Cartoon Network
Lee Meriwether in Batman: The Movie
On the plus side: That eye makeup! Lee Meriwether was a good replacement for Julie Newmar, who wasn't available when the 1966 Batman movie was filmed.
On the minus side: She's still not Julie Newmar. And the movie itself is really silly, even by '60s Batman standards.
