Favourite Bond heroines:
Tracy (The wonderful Diana Rigg in O.H.M.S.S.)

Kara Milovy (Maryam D'Abo in "Daylights")

Wai Lin (Michelle Yeoh in T.N.D)

Natalya Simonova (Izabella Scorupco in GoldenEye)

Elektra King (I know she's also the villain, but she's great)


And the worst:
The vacuous Dr Christmas Jones (Denise Richards)
The ditzy Mary Goodnight (Britt Ekland)
The klutzy Tiffany Case (Jill St John)

Any other thoughts?

I like Natalya too.

And i also think Denise RIchard is a terrible actor!!! Whos' seen in Starship Troopers??!!!? It's TERRIBLE!!!

I also like Marryam D'Abo because TLD takes place in the 80's, and she's the only peron who didn't look terrible in 80's fashion.

Are we talking about looks, acting or just the character?

Thats what I was thinking Blue Eyes.Because In my opinion Diana Rigg is neither Beautiful or sexy.

Yeah, Richards was good in Wild Things when she was making out with Neve Campbell.

Maybe it's just me but I find Diana Rigg quite sexy! Not in Tania's league as in Bootylicious, but still pretty good.

Character acting and looks I guess, but not JUST looks. After all Denise Richards is attractive, with a nice figure, but an absolute dead loss as an actress and completely unbelievable as a nuclear disarmament expert.
I'm sure she's a very nice person, though.

I've just seen a quote from EON's Casting Director, Debbie McWilliam to the effect that she (and presumably Eon) opposed the casting of Denise Richards in TWINE, but that she was forced on them to drag in the 13 to 18 year old male demographic.
By MGM I assume.
In view of the unfavourable reviews and negative reaction from fans about Richards performance - one reviewer described her acting as like "a deer caught in the headlightd" - and the fact McWilliam has spoken publicly to defend EON, maybe EON are resisting interference from MGM in the casting of Bond 20. Hope so.
