Best Catwoman

Here we go, lots of contestants for this category but only one winner. Let's see who it is.

5) Halle Berry



Yep....ok moving on!

4) Eartha Kitt



When Season 3 of the Batman series was in doubt, Julie Newmar signed on to do several movie roles. When she later found out season 3 was a go after all, she sadly had to decline her role as Catwoman due to scheduling conflicts and that's where Eartha Kitt comes in.

Kitt plays this character like she has no idea what Batman is much less what her character should be like. There's campy and then there's awful and that's where Kitt'e performance hits, just awful.

But she still beat Berry.

3) Lee Meriwhether



When they decided to make a Batman movie, Julie Newmar was once again unavailable to reprise her role and Lee Meriwhether stood in.

She actually does a pretty good job here. I kinda wish we'd had seen her in Season 3 of the show instead of Kitt. I wonder then who would've been better between her and Newmar? Lee did an excellent job as Catwoman in her short time she had playing the role but she can't hold a candle to the next 2 on the list.

2) Michelle Pheiffer



One of the best Catwoman's there'll ever be. Burton knew what he was doing when he cast her for the role. Pheiffer really gave Catwoman that sass about her character we all love and as for looks? Well, short or Princess Leia's metal bikini ask any nerd what their favorite type of costume is for a woman. (hint: NOT Halle Berry's!!)

1) Julie Newmar



I know. I've really got a thing for that 1966 series don't I? But it's the truth! Julie Newmar IS Catwoman. She barely beats Pheiffer out in my opinion solely because she embodied everything that Catwoman is. Pheiffer played Catwoman a little crazy and you were always thinking in the bacl of your mind while watching the movie "Batman would never go for that" But with Newmar you can actually she the "poor deluded soul" Batman pities every time he takes her in. Excellently done!

I have one more villain to speak about tomorrow!
