Film Friday: My Favorite James Bond Films
Film: #1 over-all / #1 of the Sean Connery era.
Bond Girl: Tatiana Romanova (Daniela Bianchi) - #7
Ally: Kerim Bey (Pedro Armendariz) - #1
Film: #2 over-all / #1 of the Daniel Craig era.
Bond Girl: Vesper Lynd (Eva Green) - #1
Film: #3 over-all / #2 of the Connery era.
Bond Girl: Honey Ryder (Ursula Andress) - #2
Film: #4 over-all / #1 of the Roger Moore era.
Bond Girl: Major Amasova (Barbara Bach) - #5
Film: #5 over-all / #2 of the Moore era.
Bond Girl: Solitaire (Jane Seymour) - #4
Henchman: Baron Samedi (Geoffrey Holder) - #1
Notes:
Evil women (Xenia Onatopp, Fiona Volpe, etc.) and women in minor roles (Plenty O'Toole, Jill Masterson, etc.) are not Bond Girls.
GoldenEye, the best of the Pierce Brosnan era, checks in at #10 over-all.
Timothy Dalton starred in two and George Lazenby one, none of which are in my top ten.
The #1 villain is Francisco Scaramanga (Christopher Lee), the title character in The Man with the Golden Gun.
The #1 Bond is Sean Connery.
Sean Connery is the best but I have to place Thunderball in the top 10 for me and Love the evil woman with the blue feather boa in that film. I would rate Goldfinger in the top 10 also because Gert Frobe is such a great villain and the best Bond girl name ever-Pussy Galore.
ReplyDeleteI have Goldfinger 6 and Thunderball 7.
DeleteYou're talking about Fiona Volpe. She was a good one. With the proper guidance, she could have been a Bond Girl.
