Did anybody enjoy Kim Basinger's small role in Never Say Never Again? I did and I wanted her to come back too but I guess the stars weren't in alinement.

I'm not talking about Eight Mile though I'm talking about Never Say Never Again...Oh wait let me guess you haven't seen that movie?

As NSNA has not been an official EON Movie, which movie do you want her to return?
There has never been a follow-up of it.

I wanted Kim Basinger to appear in a Pierce Brosnan Bond film but I didn't get my wish because the producers wanted to continue the tradition of hiring Bond girls who are half Bond's age. I think Basinger should've appeared in The World Is Not Enough as Dr. Christmas Jones because she was the same age as Brosnan but ultimately the producers opted for the much younger Denise Richards instead.

We both know Olga Kurylenko was much younger than Bond, she was 22 at the time they were filming Quantum.

I thought she was 22 because somebody on IMDb told me she was.

Since when is being leading lady a "small role"?

Actually, I thought she stunk in NSNA. She's fabulously beautiful to be sure, but was a horrible actress back then. She's gotten better, and submitted one of the most unexpected great performances I've ever seen in L.A. Confidential and won a deserved Oscar.

Oh, I thought she was fine in NSNA---surely better than the likes of Tanya Roberts and Denise Richards, anyway! Picking on the least talented actressses in the Bond Girl pool is like making fun of the shortest midget in the Wizard of Oz cast... {:)

Very nice, Loeffs...
