One more sexist topic won’t hurt, will it?

Haven’t seen “The World is not Enough”, but Sophie Marceau did it for me in “Braveheart”. Ooh la la.

Anybody else have a favorite?

Michelle Yeoh, Tomorrow Never Dies. Hot and capable of kicking ass.

-Solitare(Jane Seymour) in Live and Let Die  
Jane Seymour- Big Eyes, Big lips, Big…cough…personality. Yum Yum Yum Yum Yum

-Honey Ryder (Ursula Andress) from Dr No. The first bond girl and probably the best. I still await Miss Ryder to come walking up the beach with that tasty bathing suit.

-Pussy Galore (Honor Blackman) from Goldfinger No needed explanation! What a gal!!!

I was gonna be obstinate and say “none of them” but… Sophie Marceau… yeah… _sigh_

Better by a zillion miles than that other artificial-looking chick from Starship Troopers in it, that’s for darn certain. (I say it should have been Dina Meyer instead, now she rocks hard!)

Well, cut me some cheese and call me a Dutchman !

## Famke Janssen, of course (which one’s that ? GoldenEye, I think).

How about all of them. Haven’t seen a Bond girl yet that didn’t give me the shivers.

Pam Bouvier in “Licence to Kill” (Carey Lowell). She had beauty & brains.

There have been some great ones but my vote has to go for Michelle Yeoh. Close seconds – Famke Janssen, Carrie Lowell, Maud Adams.

The only one I couldn’t stand was the ice skater – I can’t even remember which movie it was.

Grace Jones was pushing things a little, too.

Carey Lowell is indeed tasty, but that 80s hairdo! Much better looking when she was on “Law & Order”.

My personal favorite Bond chick remains Lynn-Holly Johnson, the vixen ice skater of _For Your Eyes Only_.

Funneefarmer-  
What about Grace Jones? Now there’s a woman that gives me the shivers.

That aside, Barbara Bach in “The Spy who loved me”. Don’t know (or care)if they’re still married or not, but that Ringo Starr was one lucky guy.

Any ladies wanna jump in here on the sexiest James Bond? I vote for early Sean Connery (yes, I know he’s a jerk, but a sexy jerk!).

No contest. Diana Rigg in On Her Majesty’s Secret service. It was definitely worth enduring george Lazenby’s performance for her.

I have to pick just **one**? Ain’t possible. To the above list, all of 'em good, may I add:

Teri Hatcher  
Sheena Easton (Not a Bond girl _per se_, but the way she sings “For Your Eyes Only”… WOW!!!) (That’s also my nominee for Best Bond Title Song and Best Opening Credits Sequence)

Maybe we could also ask for Best Action Sequence? The one in _FYEO_ where Bond is on skis and is being chased by a guy on a motorcycle. They actually race each other on a bobsled run!!

And Best Stunt? The opening stunt in _Goldeneye_ where Bond bungie-jumps down the face of a dam and then fires an anchor and hauls himself down. Too cool for words…

Grace Jones, definately gets the most muscular award and she likes it on top.

How about Deborah Kerr? In, of course, Casino Royale, also featuring swiss beauty Ursula Andress.

P.S. Is Ursula Andress the only Bond girl to have major roles in **two** Bond movies?
