Dr. Christmas Jones

( MGM )

The movie: "The World is Not Enough"
The actress: Denise Richards
Character type: Nuclear physicist. No, really!
Cringeworthy name factor: High. The only reason she has that ridiculous first name is so Bond can say "I thought Christmas comes but once a year." Le sigh.
Good or evil?: Good
Ultimate fate: Boinking Bond after escaping an exploding submarine
Distressed damsel or Bond-worthy badass?: In theory, she's a badass physicist who can defuse nuclear devices. In practice, she's Denise Richards. Damsel.
