Neon Venus performing an alternative rock track from their latest CD, "Irresistible".
After the release of so many Batman movies and of course the beloved Batman TV series, the character of Catwoman, and all the Batman villains are obviously still drawing audiences to the movie theatres.

Specifically I believe Catwoman is highly appealing to women because they can can identify themselves with the fact that every woman has a side that is really stronger and wilder than what anybody can see at a mere glance, and that this side in all of us can come up to the surface when needed. In Catwoman the myth is supported by the desire to stand out or take a stand for what women believe is right. It comes from deciding to become someone else perhaps to leave a behind a weak character.

I thought since superheroes were part of my daily reading during childhood, and since they have spawned such a fantastic stream of new films and stories, that I would pick one of my favorite characters for our next video, that one of course being Catwoman, if only to bring a sprinkle of a fun imagery to our video.

The making of our video

As we were working and constructing our theatre in Las Vegas, Peter and I decided to do a creative project for our band and to shoot a music video even if a really simple one at that. It had been a while since we had done any shooting for our band so we grabbed a video camera, picked a song that we love from our latest CD, and decided to have fun shooting a little something in just 3-4 late nights.




Since we didnt have much time to prepare I just bought a $80 catwoman outfit at a costume store down the street (a block away) called William Costumes. When I went into the store I tried the only one outfit they had for Catwoman, and luckily, it did fit. Our lovely helper said that I was the only who fit this particular outfit, because I was long and lean (thank you Ellie). So I ended up feeling more like Cinderella trying her shoe than Catwoman I was happy and so was our sales lady $$
--------------------------------
Superhero movies
Never in my wildest dreams when reading comic books did I imagine that films would become such a gigantic franchise for comic book heroes.

Now there are all kinds of rumors on the web on who will play the next supervillain (and other general news). Its fun to watch: "Catwoman will be in the next Batman movie (Angelina Jolie, Cher, Kate Beckinsale, etc)." or "Catwoman wont be in the next Batman movie." "There wont be a next Batman." "They have planned many Batman sequels with all new different characters never featured on film before." "Johnny Depp will be featured in the next Batman." ETC, ETC. you get the idea. Either the Hollywood marketing machine is really on a roll, or we really cant have enough of this stuff.
At the end of this article, I've included some rumors on Catwoman and the movie. Also links to famous Catwomen ladies, who have all in my opinion brought something special to the role.
--------------
Julie Newmar
Unleashing one of the best performances for superheros and a classic collection of shows to remember, Julie Newmar will always be the quintessential Catwoman.
------------
Michelle Pfeiffer
After Julie Newmar, there have been several Catwoman that have shined in the role. And one of them is Michelle Pfeiffer, showing everybody that the role can be as perfectly dramatic and real as the actress playing it.
