Page 1 of 2  Top 7, the sequel. If you wanted to disagree with the last list, wait til you take a gander at this week's edition, Bond Girls. This was a rather tough list to narrow down. I briefly considered grouping the girls in a particular movie, but then that turns into Best Bond Babe Movies instead of Best Bond Movie Babes.
The criteria for this list is hard to define, so I won't bother, but I'll tell you that some of the factors that weighed in were things like sass and ability to kick ass (see #7), as opposed to a dry list of who's the most attractive, although clearly that is the top priority when casting the movies. For this reason, don't look for Denise Richards who was as believable in the role of a nuclear physicist as Travolta as... well, anything.

| Michelle Yeoh Tomorrow Never Dies
Perhaps the best combo in James' history, of intelligence and the ability to stomp out the opposition. Plus, she can walk down walls--not to mention jump off buildings.

| Famke Janssen Goldeneye
Xenia Onatopp may be the usual stupid Bond villainess name, but this was no ordinary woman in the role. She is viciously cunning and sexy, and also sports one deadly pair of thighs. Her leg-lock makes her the female Jaws...although she's a little hotter than he was.

| Sophie Marceau The World is Not Enough
The great thing about Marceau's character, Elektra King (aside from her name), was how unattainable she was, how holier than thou. Put this in front of Bond, and when he wins her over, it feels like an amazing accomplishment. That, and she looked better here than she ever has before of after.

| Izabella Scorupco Goldeneye
Fine, you don't know her name -- well not many people do. She was Natalya in Goldeneye, and she scores high marks for many reasons: spunky as hell, Russian accent (even if it's poorly executed), and she's a computer geek! This Polish Swede was also recently in Vertical Limit --remember her now?

| Honor Blackman Goldfinger
With a name like Pussy Galore, she was destined for greatness. Doing a stint on The Avengers wasn't a bad move either, and it certainly adds to the hatred that Diana Rigg is feeling about being snubbed from the list. That said, Honor had the best grace and poise of any of the Bond girls. Classic!

| Kim Basinger Never Say Never Again
In a strangely overlooked Bond film -- Connery's last -- Kim was the star of the show, pouting those lips, and doing that 80's leotard proud.
