The Catwoman We Deserve

Brazen?  Was that my billing?  I thought I was “Section Deleted.” –Cattitude

Seriously, the more we see of Catwoman in The Dark Knight Rises, the more  it looks like we’ll finally be getting “The Catwoman We Deserve,” heck maybe even the Bruce and Selina relationship we deserve.

 

 

The Dark Knight Rises is Christopher Nolan’s third and final installment of his Batman trilogy, starring Christian Bale (Batman/Bruce Wayne), Anne Hathaway (Selina Kyle/Catwoman), Tom Hardy (Bane), Gary Oldman, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, and other Nolan alums Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Marion Cotillard, to be released by Warner Bros. July 2012

Or, put it another way…

Catwoman steals Avengers Buzz

Today, I’m taking time out from spotlighting lovely Catwoman artwork in the Cat-Tales gallery in order to spotlight this other Catwoman, because seriously, this third Dark Knight Rises trailer is the Catwoman Show! ME-OW!

(Btw, is anyone else amused that Selina is stealing the Avenger’s net action this morning?)

Now we’re talking…

So he's all "I don't think those jewels belong to you" and she says "I salute you, world's greatest detective."

So he's all "The easy way or the hard way" and she says "Why Batman, how hard do you want it to get?"

The Gotham Post... pinheads

We’re Back, Baby

Cat-Tales had an eventful weekend. Our hosting server was attacked by some nasty malware – which was found almost instantly by two Cat-Tales readers who were kind enough to let me know, so we had it squelched in record time. Yesterday our hosts reset everything and last night, I republished the whole site from uncorrupted backups.

Whew! Let’s try not to do THAT again.

Wasn’t any trouble, but it did involve several hours of “waiting around for the cable guy” while they got to our server. Nothing like sitting around waiting on a Monday, so I took the time to whip up a little preview for the next chapter.  Considering how popular the Selina Kyle, Fashionista posts have always been, whether it’s in Cat-Tales or news of Anne Hathaway on The Dark Knight Rises set, I figured this would be of particular interest…

Still, much as we love to see Selina dressed up when she’s not in her Catwoman costume, regular Cat-Tales readers are aware that clothes and jewelry tend to be plot points, not fantasy fripperies in the tales, so in the upcoming installment of The Gotham Rogues, A Knight at the Opera… well, perhaps I should let B take it from here

As she spoke, all emotion had drained from Batman’s eyes, leaving only a gaze of focused control and icy detachment. It held for a heartbeat, then the ice melted and emotion slowly returned… and with it, a long, slow smile of deep and quiet menace.

“Not green for the opera,” he said in a poisonous voice that was barely human. “That purple and black thing you’ve got, the strapless that’s almost the same shade as your costume. Hair up, nothing to pull focus from your neck. We might have to improvise the jewelry…”

And we thought Mr. Nolan was too busy to get us anything for Christmas…

A much more detailed trailer to The Dark Knight Rises than either the teaser of a few months ago or the prologue.

Merry Christmas, Bat Fans
