Duane Thomas Posted July 28, 2004 Author Share Posted July 28, 2004 You definitely need to watch again Ms. Emma Peel at work.. I love the character of Emma Peel. (Maybe I'll post my Amazon.com review of why The Avengers movie sucked, which entails explaining why the TV series rocked, and why that had so much to do with Diana Rigg as Mrs. Peel.) But Emma Peel and Tracy Draco, despite the fact they were both played by Diana Rigg, are very different characters. Emma could wipe the floor with Tracy without even breaking a sweat.

Duane Thomas Posted July 28, 2004 Author Share Posted July 28, 2004 "Pussy Galore" is just the greatest name ever. No argument there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErikW Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 What was his reply to, "I'm Pussy Galore?" Wasn't it, "Well, of course you are." What did he say when he met Dr. Goodhead? Something like, "I'll be the judge of that." I had the hots for Maryam D'Abo for a while. (The Bond girl in the first Timothy Dalton movie.) I think she met kellyn's criteria.

JimmyB Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 But how about Famke Janssen, a.k.a. Xenia Onatopp (Goldeneye), a.k.a. Dr. Jean Gray (X-Men). Yummy! Oh yes!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tightloop Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 It takes real acting ability to say a line when you have to include the name, Pussy Galore in it and not completely break up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vlad Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 My main bitch is that they stoped giving teh Bond girls cool names. Hell, I know it is politically incorrect but so is blowing up everything in sight and running with tanks through towns. Bring back the cool names!

Vince Pinto Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 OK guys, I just found this cool website which seems to show all the Bond girls, but I just noticed there's (at least) one missing? Can anyone guess who it is? OK, she was a villian, but doesn't that count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nik Habicht Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Does it count as a Bond movie if Sean Connery is not playing the lead? I think not. Well it sorta does if Pierce Brosnan is playing Bond..... Getting back to Duane's original question, Dale clarified my choice with the above question. I was torn between Holly Goodhead (Bond Chick in the first Bond Flick I ever saw in a movie theater --- it might have been my first american movie theater expereince; I saw the film about 8 times) and Pussy Galore. It's gotta be Ms. Galore..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.Hayden Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Can anyone guess who it is? OK, she was a villian, but doesn't that count? They missed at least one whole movie... "Never say Never again" with Sean back again... Co-stars Kim Basinger and Barbara Carrera Wan't that the one made outside of the normal studio channels?

Vince Pinto Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Actually I was thinking of the outrageous Ms. Grace Jones, but she's shown on the villain page of "A View To A Kill". And yes, as "Never Say Never Again" was not produced by Albert "Cubby" Broccoli, it's not considered to be an "official" film in the James Bond series. Anyway, my vote for best Bond girl goes to Corinne Clery, but probably more because of, er, my fond memories of her role in the "The Story of O", which was produced by Just Jaeckin, the same guy who made the original "Emmanuelle" movie with (sigh) Sylvia Kristal and, and, and ........... Damn. I think I've suddenly become an ashmatic, coz I'm having a whole lot of trouble breathing ............... :wub: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlin Orr Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Just the NAMES of the Bond girls... Reading them on the site Nik posted the link to - brought back some memories - and a few chuckles. Vince - i am with ya on the breathing thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhino Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 How about Terry Hatcher or Britt Ekland... Well, yeah! Especially Terri Hatcher. Especially when she is wearing brainy girl glasses. She has a BA in math, by the way. Both of her parents have PhDs and are professors (Comp Sci and Physics). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellyn Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Erik, D'Abo is an ok Bond girl but regrettably The Living Daylights was one of the most conservative Bond flicks dealing with the subject of sex. Far too tame. Perhaps it was AIDS or the Reagan years. D'Abo falls into the "Oh, James" camp. A bit weak and defenseless and not sexually aggressive. Pussy and Sylvia Trench were sexually liberated women, which is why I love them. D'Abo wold never have shown up in Bond's apartment after meeting at the casino.

Bucky Posted August 14, 2004 Share Posted August 14, 2004 I know you are limited in your poll, but how can you omit Maud Adams? She was bond girl twice and appeard in THREE James Bond films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baron45 Posted September 8, 2004 Share Posted September 8, 2004 For me,the best Bond girl was Jane Seymour and although she is not on the list,Carole Bouquet who played the role of Melina in the movie,"For Your Eyes Only". baron45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
