3. Catwoman/Selina Kyle (Michelle Pfeiffer), Batman Returns (1992)
There's other versions of Catwoman that I could have chosen for the list, including Halle Berry's portrayal and Anne Hathaway's more recent turn at the femme fatale, however I don't feel either of those versions of Selina have been as cool as Michelle Pfeiffer's Catwoman in Tim Burton's Batman Returns. Selina is pushed into the life of crime and obsession after her boss, Max Shreck, attempts to murder her. She is mysteriously revived by cats (a very Burton-esque moment in the film), and goes home in a psychotic break down, sowing together her infamous outfit and fleeing into the night. Catwoman then goes on to plan the end of Batman with the Penguin, yet she chooses to seduce Bruce when she is not in costume. Selina is the epitome of a strong, sexy female, and definitely deserves her spot in the top 3.
