1. Yeah, But She's Still Crazy Smokin' Hot!!

A cool personal story about Denise Richards: She beat out my Ex-Girlfriend for the Starship Troopers role. It was down to a few finalists who all read for it, including my Ex, and obviously Richards got it.

2. how spoiled are we

that there is such a thing as a 'bad' Bond girl. :shrug:

[Broken_Hero]

3. funny, I was just thinking that...:) nt

4. I don't even know who she is

I've heard her name three or four times now, as though she's a celebrity. Who the heck is she, and why is she famous?

Also, why should I care? :)

22. She's one of the "Friends," I believe.

I can't answer the last part of your question.

[LynneSin]

26. Nope, she was not a "Friend"

Although she did a guest appearance on "Friends" but so did everyone else.

She played the vixen high school girl in a few movies from the late 90's (Starship Troopers, Wild Thing) and probably her biggest claim to fame was that she married & divorced Charlie Sheen. Then she help break-up her best friend Heather Locklear's marriage to Richie Sambora. Richards is now dating Sambora.

Plus just recently she tossed a laptop at a lil old lady in a wheelchair.

5. Lois Chiles in "Moonraker" came pretty damn close.

The operative word, in this case, being "girl". Ms. Chiles, while a fine actress, was a bit long in the tooth, Bond girlwise.

[Little Wing]

6. Standing next to the worst Bond

If I wanted Romulan Cloaking Devices, I'd watch Star Trek, thank you very much.

[LynneSin]

27. NO WAY!!! - Pierce was not only the best bond but the sexiest too

Only reason I went to see a Bond film was because Pierce Bronsan was in it. I'm doubting that I'll see it now that he's been replaced.

[Frank Cannon]

7. She beat Tanya Roberts?

No way. Tanya "View To a Kill" Roberts makes Denise Richards look like Dame Judi Dench.

[Little Wing]

11. Yeah, but she had that Rita Cosby voice goin on

[Human Torch]

23. BWAHAHAHAHA!

:toast:

:rofl:

[SlavesandBulldozers]

8. Maryam D'Abo at number 4 means this list is horseshit.

Maryam D'Abo! Hottest. Bond Girl. Ever. These people are nuts!

(but Denise was the logical choice for #1)

[CanuckAmok]

12. Agreed!

I thought I was the only Maryam fan...

I met her once, and she's still absolutely smokin' hot, even without her cello, and with pushing 50.

1987:


2002:


My mom went to school with Shirley Eaton (the girl who was painted Gold in Goldfinger). She's smokin' hot, too, but I can't imagine her being my mom's age!

[SlavesandBulldozers]

13. you met Maryam Dabo?

are you kidding me?!!?!?

tell me more.

[CanuckAmok]

14. Yep.

But I'm in the movie biz, so it's not all that surprising. And I do mostly-forgetable cable movies, so it's even less surprising.

[SlavesandBulldozers]

20. tell me more. what are her likes, dislikes, is she married?

just kidding. but that is awesome.

[idgiehkt]

16. I thought the gold girl died?

or is that just an urban legend? :shrug:

[CanuckAmok]

18. Urban Legend

9. Glad to see these forums being put to good use

[SlavesandBulldozers]

10. Bond girl talk is a perfect match for the lounge.

probably one of the best. aside from talking about booze.

[CanuckAmok]

15. Actually, there really should be a Bond forum.

That'd be cool. We could spend all day trashing Roger Moore.

[SlavesandBulldozers]

21. seriously

and I would don my fire-retardant suit daily and tell everybody that Dalton was the best Bond.

[Human Torch]

24. I'm here to protect and serve.

What you MAY perceive as wasted bandwidth isn't my concern. Keeping the troops entertained IS.

HA!

:evilgrin:

17. Since everyone is Bond-crazy,

here's a Bond film review I came across. It's apparently written by a Mennonite from some rural community somewhere:



I went to see... the new James Bond picture... with a friend of mine, Cornelius. The movie was called... World Is Not Enough... and neither Henry nor myself... could figure out what that was supposed to mean. Henry, he said... what do you think that means. And yet I had no answer.

And we sat there to watch the film, and I have to say... the trick effects were very impressive. But the man who plays Bond... was not the sort of man who used to play him. He did not have the toughness... that a man needs to have to play this role. I did not... could not picture this man sitting down and eating a steak. No... no, nor even a fine veal cutlet. And Cornelius said to me... who does that man think he is. Cornelius, I do not know. It was in the older pictures that the man was bigger and he seemed to have... more toughness. And there were ladies... there were more ladies that wanted to go to bed with this man. And it was more graphically depicted in these pictures.

I do not want to say that the new picture... World Is Not Enough... is not a good film, but for me and Cornelius... It was not what we remembered from our days in the movie theatre... as younger men. Together we would go, and... what we would see there was more exciting... more ladies on view... more of the sort of villainry... There was the bald man with the cat, who is killed many times. But never enough. And that was when Cornelius... leaned over to me and said... Henry, he said... what was the name of that man. And I said... Cornelius... his name was Blofeld.

After the picture was over, we were driving back down Route 12... and we saw a Grainmaster. Cornelius said... what is that truck doing. And it was weaving... back and forth... across the road. And it was some Hutterites. And I said to the Hutterites... I said go back to your colony, you roadhogs. And Cornelius said to me... Good one, Henry.

19. HAHAHA

That is the BEST bond review I have ever read. Pure Comic Genius.

[NYYFan]

30. Also- the worst movie of them all

Lots of "worsts" in this one.

[LynneSin]

25. She was horribly miscast as a Nuclear Physicist

Her prior three films before her turn as a Bond girl she played high school girls and now we were to believe she was PhD Nuclear Physicist. I loved Pierce Bronson as Bond and I noticed that none of his other girls were on the list (although I would think Teri Hatcher ranked pretty close to the Top 10 worst), but this was just a joke casting with Denise Richard. It's probably the one Bond movie I can barely stomach of the Bronsan series

[SlavesandBulldozers]

28. yeah. it was probably a joke from the beginning.

director: <hits joint> so who do we cast as the nuclear physicist? <passes joint>
casting director: <hits joint. . holds it in really long> eh, hehehe Denise Richards. <passes joint>
both burst out laughing. . . then a silence washes over them.

[NYYFan]

29. Damn straight she was !!

Christmas Jones, a nuclear physicist ??!:wtf:

YEAH RIGHT !!
