She was 22 in For Your Eyes Only. Play ball!

She upstaged Bond in his own movie.

Izabella Scorupco is my personal fave, even though it is hard to top the first four Bond girls. Last month, I realized once again how stunning Ursula Andress is. The first one is still the best looking one.

Gotta go with Britt Ekland as Mary Goodnight.

I laugh at that scene simply for Bond running trying to dodge her and give her the general "ehhh" at her advances.

He bangs chicks he knows full well work for the bad guy, but *she* is one he won't touch? A gentleman, but out of character.


I picked Tatiana Romanova because "From Russia With Love" is my favorite Bond movie.

FRWL is my favorite movie too, but I like the gypsy girls more than Tatiana :D

Put me down for Tracy, but she has advantages b/c that story is so strong, and Diana Rigg is really good.

Second place is Claudine Auger as Domino. In my opinion, she's the prettiest Bond girl, and she ends up being tough (she's the one that actually kills Largo!). What else could you want?

Rounding out my top five would be Eva Green, Carole Bouquet, and Honor Blackman.

Ursula Andress may be iconic, but Honey Ryder is a fairly useless character.

Oh, and no matter how young Bibi might look and act, Lynn Holly Johnson was only a year or so younger than Carole Bouquet.

I can't believe no one mentioned "Tula" (aka Barry/Caroline Kenneth Crossey) from FOR YOUR EYES ONLY!

There are a max of 25 poll options allowed people, that's why secondary and villain Bond girls aren't listed.

So are we to vote for one night or for long term girlfriend?

Nice to see Eva Green getting votes. Less to do with Casino Royale, more to do with The Dreamers?

Michelle Yeoh (Wai Lin)

Frankly, I'm surprised that Michelle didn't get cast in more high profile action movies after that. She was only 34 when she made Tomorrow Never Dies and was still in her prime.

The actress was 22...the character was being played as much younger...like between 16 and 18, I would guess.

And in 1981, I was 13. So it's all good.

The movie was set in both Greece (where the age of consent is 15) and Italy (where it is 14), so still not a problem!

Yep, she is my favorite, along with:

"Die Another Day" was on a week or two ago, and I watched a bit more closely when she showed up in that black top/white pants outfit.

Hallie Berry ain't too shabby either.

Pam Bouvier (Cary Lowell, Licence To Kill) I pick.
I based it on who I would want as a girlfriend.

For a one night I pick Tiffany Case.

Vesper. Eva Green isn't the girl I would vote as most alluring for me personally, but in terms of story she is without a doubt the female lead with the most substance to her, and one of the few I've actually been invested in as the story unfolds.

runners up would be
Camille (QoS)- another excellent aspect of a movie grievously impaired by ADD editing
Strawberry Fields- ditto
Kara Milovy- sweet, vulnerable, and guileless. Her pleasant 'ordinary-ness' colors Dalton's inaugural Bond in a very positive way.

As attractive as I've always found Bach (absolutely one of the hottest looking Bond girls to me), her character is ridiculously inept and functions as little more than a damsel in distress. Compared to Camille, or even Holly Goodhead in the subsequent film, she's not a strong character at all- in any sense of the word.
