There have been countless Bond girls over the years, from Pussy Galore to Mary Goodnight to Strawberry Fields, and the most iconic 007 femme fatale would probably be bikini-clad Ursula Andress, who played Honey Ryder in the first James Bond film, Dr. No, in 1962. See the bodacious ladies who’ve wielded guns, showed off their assets, and bedded Bond for the last 50-plus years!
I’m not much of a James Bond guy [I plan on changing that this winter by watching ALL of the Bond movies…or at least going to try to], but I am fairly excited for this next Bond movie. Not for Daniel Craig’s Bond, but rather his arch villain this time around. About a week ago, we were given the first full length trailer to Skyfall and the first real look at Bond’s nemesis, Silva portrayed by Javier Bardem. Bardem, who personified pure evil in No Country for Old Men, is Bond’s villain this time around and he looks monstrous. The look on his face, his suit color choice, and that hair. He’s going to be a great villain, I already know and I can’t wait to see him in action.
Also Q makes his first appearance. See the trailer again below.
Marvel’s ambitious and star powered movie, The Avengers, released it’s first trailer this week. The film include Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremey Renner, and Samuel L. Jackson. Directed by Joss Whedon [Firefly, Buffy], I have high hopes for this. Usually when movies are stuffed with too many stars, some can compete for the spotlight, and with this being an action movie, it’s easy for the writing to take the backseat. By no means will this movie be a flop, what’s questionable is whether or not it will be any good. Anywho, watch the trailer above and hit the links for more info on the Avengers.
