C.S.I. tonight premiered the Catwoman trailer.
Now, Halle Berry is sexy, okay? I’ve liked her since “The Flintstones”, long before most everyone in the world agreed she was hot stuff, so it’s nothing against Halle. The trailer shows lots of shots of her looking sexy. The scene of her licking cream from her lips is…well, intense isn’t strong enough a word.
But boy does this look like a pale effort to make a DC superhero movie.
I still remember when DC had the Superman franchise, and then the awesome first Batman movie which spawned three sequels that were big even if they stunk…and MARVEL was considered the company that couldn’t mount a good live action version of their products that didn’t go straight to video. Now Marvel has had two X-Men films, two Spideys, Daredevil, Hulk … and DC has only failed attempts at a Superman relaunch…and this film which looks like Joan Severance’s Black Scorpion if you added $27.50 to the costume budget.
