I never thought McGarrett himself was such great character to begin with.
My controversial opinion : overall the Craig era had the best looking Bond girls of the last 40 years.
I'd agree with that if not for some of Moore's lovelies. Craig got the lovely French ones, however. Eva, Bérénice and Lea... I'm jealous.
Ursula Andress, Joanna Pettet, Barbara Bouchet, Daliah Lavi, Jacqueline Bisset, Angelina Scoular, ... .
The list is endless!
Only in looks--none of the screen Felixes have the original's personality.
I thought Devil May Care was awful but i'd like to see what the filmmakers did with the villains 'Monkey paw' !!!!
The reason that I would use Devil May Care is that we get more Felix Leiter and Rene Mathis. Two of the best characters from recent movies that need more screentime.
That is why I said overall. Moore had a few lovely women, but less so in his later Bond films. There were a few women who drag the beauty level down imo. Same thing with the Brosnan era.
Can't think of any!
Grace Jones? Magda in OP loked a tad too 80s as well. And it does not mean I think of ugly women. Just women less beautiful than the ones of his earlier tenure or early Connery. Or less exotic, less classy, less of what makes Bond girls unique.
Gloria Hendry, Corinne Dufour and Lois Chiles were not at the same standard either in my opinion.
Great title, terrible book though!
Forgot about her…
She's only one of the most beautiful Bond girls.
Harsh!
As you say, it's all a matter of taste.
I found Lois Chile's to be very plain looking , and a bit wooden!
I feel the same way.
In my humble opinion the fear in his eyes when he beds Grace Jones is not acted, otherwise he would be worthy for an Oscar for that scene alone. Only Dolf Lundgren would do Grace in those days.
She is not ugly by any means, but as far as Bond girl material prettines goes, she is one of the least striking to me. It doesn't help that she lacks charisma as well...
Understatement of the year-nominee right here. They could've built a gondola out of her!
Not yet, not by me anyway. But please do @mattjoes !
I love her, and wanted to do a post about her once but felt like i didn't had enough good material at the time.
I love me a girl with some attitude. She was a bit of a feminist actually, always proud that she was running around in a baggy jumpsuit in the finale instead of a bikini and how she loved that it pissed people off lol.
We had girls like that as early as GF, with Pussy. Somehow that stuff always gets lost or deliberately ignored by all the subsequent Bond girls or sjw warriors who keep telling us that the franchise is just plain sexist and full of bimbos.
She's charming in a down-to-earth way.
Haha. I will never get that image out of my head. Thanks @Birdleson
There, I've said it.
