    I'm really having a hard time putting up a list. There are too many absolutely non-descript, run-of-the-mill baddies among them, who have no other function than being a henchperson ticking off the boxes. But I'll keep trying, Christmas is still a few days away...

    Have to say, am in the same boat! Struggling with this one!

    I am also very excited about which images you will be showing for each henchperson. Loved the idea with the lobby cards in one of the previous rankings ( hope I am correct to believe it was you, don‘t have the time to look it up).

    Yes! That was me :)

    I suppose it might pose somewhat of a challenge for a few of them, but I'll try to find all of them in some capacity.

    As @Mathis1 said, this is tough.

    The top-tier guys (and girls) are easy, as are the bottom feeders. There is however, a large group in the middle that I'm having a hard time with.

    .... may have to dust off the old random-number table. :))

    As with others, this has been a tougher list to compile than I thought it would be.
    At the end of the day, I decided to rank them based on their threat to Bond, their character and importance within their film and how evil they were.
    The top ten was especially hard to choose, as there are so many truly great and evil henchpeople.

    Many thanks to you @GoldenGun I really don't know how you do it.

    Whoa, you guys had a system? I'm now ashamed to admit that I merely ranked them from my gut feeling 😔.

    I guess by now that this is the only thing that I can do to actually compile a sort of list...

    My ranking is purely based on my personal enjoyment when that henchperson is on screen. The other aspects mentioned only come into play when I cannot decide. The rankings don't need to get too brainy for me.

    So did I. Not particularly ashamed though 🙂

    Sent (let me know if there are any issues).

    While I don’t necessarily agree with these Den Of Geek ranking’s from 2023, they do provide food for thought.

    A few more would be welcome :) If you have trouble ranking the bottom part. I'd say just follow your gut feeling ;)
