As one of the credited writers of CATWOMAN, I believe I have the authority to say: because it was a shit movie dumped by the studio at the end of a style cycle, and had zero cultural relevance either in front of or behind the camera.

This is a bad take. Feel shame. https://t.co/6sth7w38Xx
A commentator D.C McAllister commented on the success of Marvel's Black Panther by tweeting about the comment made by the former First Lady of US, Michelle Obama as the latter compared the movie with 'Catwoman'.
She said, "Michelle Obama says it's about time black kids have a superhero that reflects who they are. Why didn't we hear this when Halle Berry as Catwoman was released years ago?"
The 'Transformers' writer in reply to the tweet went on to term the Catwoman movie as a 'bad take'.
He added, " The movie had a zero cultural relevance, either in front of or behind the camera".
He further admitted to have never seen the movie in one-go.
He said, "Also full disclosure: I've never watched the movie all the way through in one sitting. I skipped premiere night to shoot audition footage for Global Frequency. And they'd fired me anyway for, you know, snark".
