      1. Halle Berry ruined her career not with Bond but rather with Catwoman.
      2. The 2005 version of Pride & Prejudice is absolutely TERRIBLE, because it ruins the content of the book. Just watch the 1995 BBC miniseries and compare the "verbal duel" between Elizabeth and Lady Catherine near the end. Both have the same dialogue (exactly how it was written in the book), BUT the 2005 version only has HALF THE TIME for it. Oh and Keira Knightley cant act other than a spoiled girl who thinks she is a man ... because Elizabeth Bennet would NEVER have yelled like she did. Also: that "sex scene" at the end for the US audience. To sum it all up: Ang Lee NEVER EVER should have been allowed to make a film of a Jane Austen novel!

      There are 23 Bond films so there are at least 23 Bond girls. Alot of Bond films have more than one Bond girl. Let's say at least 10, so we add 10 more girls. 33 Bond girls and only 10 beat the curse - that's 23 girls that didn't. I think there's enough probable cause to suggest that there is a curse indeed.

    Diana Rigg was also known in the USA as Mrs. Emma Peel of THE AVENGERS. I think she was cast as the only woman James Bond ever married (according to Ian Fleming) partly because ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE had a new, unknown actor replacing Sean Connery as Bond, and one reason I was drawn to see that movie is because I so admired Diana Rigg as Mrs. Peel.

She's had some solid roles in her time, especially in Irish movies (she's Irish), but really escaped the curse thanks to her role as Dr. Elsa Schneider in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. That was one of her last major roles, but yea.

      For most movies, I always here stories about Angelina auditioning for some role and being considered for it, BUT I think it's those movie producers that keep lying by throwing her name around as a way for the movie to get more attention from fans...seeing that she is still an actress high in demand.

    Never Say Never Again wasn't really an official Bond film. Despite being based on the book of Thunderball which in itself was based on an unused screenplay,apart from including James Bond as a character being played by Sean Connery, it's not officially considered a Bond movie. But it doesn't matter either way, just incase anyone wanted to know.

      ... and that isnt really what a Bond girl is meant to be. James Bond is from a time when "men were real men, women were real women, and small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were real small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri." ... and the woman should behave accordingly. Sadly things have changed and due to political correctness and feminism people think it cool when women are behaving like men. [... which isnt "female equality" but rather "making them the same".]

      I feel like the real problem is that a lot of girls seem to find anything feminine to be "shameful" or something.
      As soon as a woman is described as "feminine and cute" there is always some extreme feminist who has to be like "oh yeah? well she is actually a strong person and actually has these and these skills" and blah-blah-blah.
      Yeah, ok? Nobody claimed otherwise.

    I was named after a Bond girl but unfortunately she's not on this list. She was the very first Bond girl in the very first Bond movie, Dr. No. She played Honey Ryder; her name is Ursula Andress. My name is Andress. My mom is a huge James Bond fan and she saw the movie when she was a teenager, she saw the name Andress and fell in love with it. She said that when she has a daughter, she will name her that. Sure enough when I came along, that's the name I got. I'm actually quite honored to have the name, it's quite unique and very pretty. Not a lot of people in this generation even know who Ursula Andress was, but I do and that's all that matters.

    Sophie Marceau was already very relevant in Europe for her roles. She never tried to be a Hollywood actress because she is in fact an artist you would find at Cannes where the good movies are shown. Without a doubt she did a fantastic job. What a performance!

      Remake of Thunderball; made by one of the writers of the original script, Kevin McClory. McClory felt cheated during the writing of Thunderball because he effectively co-wrote the book with Ian Fleming, and characters/organizations like Blofeld and SPECTRE were his ideas. Until his death in 2006 he challenged every use of his characters in court; explaining why Blofeld is killed off at the beginning of "For Your Eyes Only". As a result of his death Eon was able to bring SPECTRE back for the upcoming Bond film.

    @aletseaniram Před 8 lety +9

    I do not agree with your list, because it's not accurate enough and, sometimes, unfair. Eva Green was already known for her role as Isabelle, in Bernardo Bertolucci "The Dreamers" (2003). She was making a path of her own when the Bond Girl offer came in. She almost refused it, as she considered the films "all about brainless girls in small sized bikinis." But the story of Casino Royale was different. The Bond Girl was different. She accepted the role when she first read the script and she loved it. After that she continued to be who she was. She picks the roles she wants. She plays the femme fatale occasionally but she does not want to live on that. She is a far greater actress than Rosamond Pike. And look at the other comments on Hale Berry! You have misjudged the actresses. I am glad to see that most people are well informed and do not agree with this list either.
