"Paws Off"? What the hell? Halle looks horrid in this. Look at that costume! She is nothin' but bones. And the story isn't even about the real Catwoman, but someone else entirely.

I've got a bad feeling about this. Of course I didn't expect anything of this anyway!

Holy crap! When I saw that picture you posted, I initially thought it was a joke!

That is terrible.

They should have used Michelle Pfeiffer again, in the same costume from "batman returns". That was HOT!! [evil]

I wonder how many Imax theatres are gonna get suckered into this one. I hadn't even heard of the movie until the DMR press release was issued. That can't be a good thing.

When I first heard that Halle Berry was going to be playing Catwoman, I couldnt wait to see it. Now after seeing that pic, I CAN wait. A very long time. [thumbsdown]

This is the director's second film as a director. He mostly works as a Visual Effects Director. Pitof's last film as a director was "Vidocq" (2001).

I think I can wait till cable and few [beer] .

Plot outline: Shy and sensitive Patience Prince is transformed into Catwoman, with the speed, reflexes, and senses of a cat. using her newfound powers she walks a thin line between criminal and hero, even as a detective doggedly pursues her, fascinated by both of her personas.
from imdb

Looks more like an Ex-Bond Girl looking for Revenge on the producers of this.

And the Best Costume Oscar for Wardrobe Malfunction goes too.....

What ruins that onesheet Joe posted is the "Paws off!" tag. That takes any "menace" away from the image and makes it look like a kiddie flick, when it's supposed to be going for the teen/adult adventure "Batman" fans.

When the marketing blitz kicks in, it will have a gigantic opening weekend, all due to Ms. Berry and her costumes. (How many guys went to the last James Bond flick just to see her in that bikini?) Then it will drop like a load of cat poop.

I guess one of these days bad movies will kill Trajan.

An even worse choice is the font for "Paws Off". An alternate version of Avant Garde. Very 1970's looking. Kinda like a Maybelline commercial.

If it had been me doing the design work, I would have developed a custom logo for the "Catwoman" tag; something tough and perhaps even a little futuristic looking --like proper comic book font title design should be. Then you would need an angry "dry brush" ragged type font for the "paws off" tag. Perhaps something like ITC's fonts, Arid, Choc or Kick.
