For all those nerds — like myself — who were perturbed at Anne Hathaway’s Catwoman outfit in The Dark Knight Rises, specifically it’s lack of cattiness (or, “cattitude,” if you must) you may cease worrying. Word is that when Catwoman wears her goggles above her eyes, headband-style, they do look marginally cat-tish. I did think they looked slightly pointed in the set pics of her stealing the Batpod, as above, but I imagine they look pretty solidly Catwoman-y when worn on her forehead. So. Crisis averted.
Is it a slow news day? Tiny bit.
About The Author

He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
