Regarding the unveiling of the Catwoman costume: I was unmoved by it. If there is something two rungs beneath “apathy,” that is exactly what I felt. And others felt the same way, in that they felt nothing.
But Anne Hathaway has strong words for her costume’s critics:
Anne: “…I happen to know that MTV’s reaction [to the Catwoman costume] was ‘Meh.'”
Interviewer: “Was it ‘Meh’?”
Anne: [coyly] “MTV’s reaction was ‘Meh.'”
Interviewer: “That’s why I’m here! I’m here to broker the peace.”
Anne: “So what I am happy to say is, if you didn’t like the photo—I’m gonna start with the negative—you only see about a tenth of what that suit can do. And if you did like the photo, you have excellent taste.”
I am yet unconvinced about that Catwoman suit, but Anne Hathaway is way more charming than I ever realized.
This sucks all of the light out of the entire universe
Dear Anne Hathaway:
Nobody will ever find you sexy, devious and/or anything but dorky.
Sincerely,
Universe
Though she traumatized me in Brokeback Mountain (her breasts will surely conquer the world! Run!), I love Anne Hathaway. She absolutely stole every scene in Alice in Wonderland. Even my straight guy friends joined me in walking around the house, pretending to be her character afterward.
Try it; it’s fun.
I am so, so excited to watch her as Selena Kyle in this Batman. I have no issues with the outfit so far (to be honest, I had a harder time dealing with the different, grungier look that The Joker had in The Dark Knight), and I am confident in her ability to portray the part. The last two films were excellent. Perhaps this film can purge our memories of Halle Berry’s dreadful Catwoman film and it’s antagonist: makeup.
