Unlikely Movie Scientists

Will Denise Richards never get the credit she deserves for her Oscar-worthy turn as a nuclear scientist in The World is Not Enough? Obviously not, if this list is any indication.

Admittedly it's been a long time since I read an FF comic book and I've not seen either movie. But, as best I remember, Sue Storm/Richards was never a scientist. The rest of the list I won't argue.

I thought Denise just oozed authenticity in that role. She can massage my data any time.

Brian Raftery's a pretty funny writer.

Denise proves she's a scientist by pronouncing the word "nu-cu-ler."

She's an admirer of Our Great President.

I'm rather upset that they included Dr. Bunsen Honeydew instead of Lois Chiles's amazing (in more ways than two) portray of scientist/astronaut/CIA agent Dr. Holly Goodhead in Moonraker.

Yes, that was indeed amazing. Lois Chiles, by the way, lives in Houston now.
