How do you rank Bond girls and Bond villains?

^ #1 for me.

Close, close second:

Diana Rigg was very nice. When I see The Avengers it's all a bit too smug for me but Rigg looked fantastic and her wardrobe was great.



Welcome to the human race...
It wasn't Jonathan Pryce's fault, great actor, just having a ****ing media mogul as bad guy was lol bad.
Why, though? Making Carver a media mogul is one of the more sensible variations on the classic Bond villain. His scheme is fundamentally the same - plunge the world into war-torn chaos for fun and profit - but his methods are distinctive. If mass media coverage is capable of actively influencing the development of world affairs rather than just passively relaying unfolding events to the public, then a media personality could definitely take that to an extreme and start deliberately causing international incidents just for the sake of boosting his net worth and personal brand. It's almost too easy at this point.

I thought that having a media mogul as a villain was a great idea and it totally worked for me! And everyone says that Christmas Jones was terrible, but I think I would rank her in the middle of the pack. There have been far worse Bond actresses out there, such as Tanya Roberts, Britt Eckland, Maryam D'Abo, and those two Japanese women from You Only Live Twice, but can't think of their names.

I don't know why Denise Richards gets picked on so much compared to other ones that are so quite a bit worse than she is, in my opinion.

I think it's because casting an attractive twenty-something woman as a renowned nuclear scientist comes across as a little too implausible even by Bond standards.

the character's job occupation yes, I guess there is a difference there.



Ghouls, vampires, werewolves... let's party.

Perhaps she got the job by.... sucking up to the boss?

Yeah but Tanya Roberts was fiiiiiiiiiine .



Favorite villain: Louis Jourdan as Kamal Khan in Octopussy
That's an interesting choice. Louis Jourdan never usually gets a mention. He was also a really good Dracula I thought.

He was also a good villain in an episode of Columbo.

Murder Under Glass




He was also a good villain in an episode of Columbo.

Murder Under Glass
And very funny in Swamp Thing too.

I've not seen Swamp Thing. I'll have to watch that. It would be interesting to see him playing something funny for a change. The interesting similarity between his character in Octopussy and in Murder Under Glass is that he was serious about his food, ("The souffle can't wait"). Besides, I love his accent.

I've only seen him in The Return of Swamp Thing but never the first one. He's great at the matter-of-fact lunacy of the Dr Moreau-like baddie.

Thank you. I'll check out both movies. It sounds like a silly title for a movie. Sort of like Scary Movie.

It's a comic book adaptation .



Ursulla Andress, I think, is the only Bond girl to have appeared in two James Bond movies: Dr No (1962) and Casino Royale (1967). She was quite a sight in both of them, but more so in Dr No (hxxps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_bikini_of_Ursula_Andress).

Actually, Maud Adams appeared in both The Man With The Golden Gun and in Octopussy. She also did a cameo in A View to a Kill.

I stand corrected. I perhaps should point out that I haven't seen a Bond film since Moonraker (1979). The space battle ruined the series for me forever.

Really? I didn't know that. Who did she play?
