Here is the link to EW's list of the Best and Worst Bond Girls. I know this has been done before, but since a new 007 flick is on the horizon, why not review the ladies of the past 21 films.

I was surprised with some of the results. I won't tell any top winners or losers, but Solitaire and Domino were left off of the Best List.

Also, do not worry. Goodnight is on the Worst List, but magazine clearly states for her brains and not her body.

    Gads, there's so much to disagree with on both lists that I can't possibly list them. Let's just simplify then: putting Rosa Klebb down as a "Bond babe" is, no matter how EW slices it, just flat-out wrong; and I remain amazed by how little love Dalton's films are shown by the mainstream press. Leave it to the Bond experts (namely, us), EW!

    The hatred for Corinne Dufour is just utterly random!

    I totally agree with you. People who actually watch the films should be the ones to give the opinions on bond girls..I vote for both domino and fiona from thunderball.

    Agreed. And the "mainstream press" can shove it, if you'll excuse my choice of words. Dalton's Bond films deserve a LOT more recognition and appreciation than they're getting IMO. Anyway my favs remain Domino, Tatiana, and Pussy Galore.

    Its interesting how Thunderball's 'girls' often seem to get overlooked or forgotten about by the mainstream press - its something I've noticed before.

    I don't like that list. Where's Natalya (another girl who's always forgotten? And how did Wai Lin, Tiffany and Vesper get on the "best" list? Also, what was with the hatred for poor Helga Brandt, Octopussy, Holly and Pam (aka the only positive thing about Licence To Kill? A lot of those lists I would actually reverse who was on it, but some of the "worst" on the best and some of the "best" on the worst.
