Best and Worst Bond girls

My Favorite: Izabella Scorupco as Natalya Simonova in GoldenEye
She's actually a good character with a personality who does things. And of course, a very beautiful woman.
Worst: Denise Richards as Dr. Christmas Jones
in The World is not Enough
She's just thrown into movie because it needs a Bond girl. She plays a nuclear physicist and appears half way through the movie and doesn't do much. Richards acting is terrible and she has no chemistry with Brosnan at all. Her ridiculous name only exists for a terrible joke at the end of the movie, "I thought Christmas only comes once a year".
Most Boring: Lea Seydoux as Madeleine Swann in Spectre
No personality. Not the worst, but pretty meh.
Most people's favorite: Eva Green as Vesper Lynd in Casino Royale
She's probably the best written Bond Girl in what I consider to be the best Bond Film.
I've been watching the Brosnan movies on Netflix so my opinion will be slightly influenced be that. I haven't seen any of the older movies so let me know if you think I'm missing someone.
You know the rule, provide pics.

I've always liked Carey Lowell in License to Kill
Edit to add; Denise Richards was terrible as was Tanya Roberts

Well, that's why I wanted people to put there Bond girl choices in here. But feel free to add nothing and cry about it instead

Eva Green is the best Bond girl, period. Her character made that movie, and it's one of the best Bond movies. As for the worst, the competition is stiff. Tanya Roberts gets my vote.

I'll admit to not being fully familiar with all of the older Bond films.
In the ones I'm familiar with, Eva Green as Vesper is easily the best character. Her character has more depth and impact by a decent amount. Her relationship with Bond has higher stakes because of the way the character is developed.
Christmas Jones was terrible. I liked Skyfall, but it has the weirdest relationship with a "Bond girl." She shows up halfway through and gets killed after like 10 minutes of screen time.

That because Dame Judi Dench is the actual “Bond Girl” in Skyfall.

Fun fact, one of my wife's best friends from our Ole Miss days is the niece of Lois Chiles from Moonraker. And they look crazy similar:

I'd still prefer a poorly performed Christmas Jones over Goodnight, who is an absolutely useless character in The Man With The Golden Gun.

Jill St. John was pretty awful
I always thought Carole Bouquet (For Your Eyes Only) and Maryam D'abo (Living Daylights) were underrated but it's hard to top Ursula Andress and Barbara Bach

By far, the ugliest is Grace Jones.

sorry.
Tracy should be at the top, much less on the best list.
