We've been watching a lot of James Bond movies the last couple of days... Don't get me wrong, I love me some Pierce Brosnan as much as the next girl who loves the tall-dark-and-handsome with an english accent. But after bond chick after bond chick, you start to see that there are really only three types of women in those movies: 1- the bad girl, she's sexy but she's got an expiration date usually because she has a habit of crushing people with her knees or because she fell in love with the villain. 2- the smokin' boots, usually a desk-top girl sent over from Intelligence with some news who ends up getting bedded and then knocked off by the villains to get back at Bond, and this all happens within a 5 minute period because her character really doesn't matter. And then 3- the accomplice, she is either a brilliant scientist who doesn't believe in a bra or a fellow spy in skimpy clothing who gives her allegiance with the thought that he will give his... until he meets his next bond girl.
Anyways, I'm sick of spineless women in movies! So I thought about it and made a list. These are ladies that I can respect. They hold their own and they actually have personalities! It's called a character because that's what they need... they need CHARACTER!
Leia is one of my favorites. I love how she first hated Han, she could put him in his place while still falling for those rugged good looks
Meg Ryan is just normal. She's just like a lot of us who can fall for a guy and still think we're crazy while she does it. Plus she goes and gets her man. More power to ya!
Debbie Reynolds is a hero(ine) partially because she succeeded in beating down an actress to get her stud and because of her killer dance moves
