How is that so few get Denise?

I can't believe that Carey Lowell is listed as a WORST!

She may be one of the most beautiful women on the planet!

I still watch the old Law and Order episodes with her in them.

Randy - Because the only line anyone remembers from the movie is "And they told me Christmas only comes once a year." Which, as rendered, makes us believe she's doing it herself.

Only one is wrong? David's nomination (worst script of any Bond film, including the horrid Richards thing) is a strong contender (if only for the scenes with Wayne Newton), and I'm certainly willing to argue for Maud Adams being underappreciated in Roger Moore's swan song (or even flipping those two, since Halle Berry mailed in DAD).

Maryam D'Abo a worst? Why not just admit you hated the only talented Bond-without-baggage between Connery and Craig?

I don't need to read the article to know which one.

The list forgot Jane Seymour as "Solitaire" in "Live and Let Die." Never has a deflowering been such an important plot point in a Bond film. (Of course it may have been the only deflowering in a Bond film....)
