I haven't seen the movie but I remember someone talking about Denise Richards playing a nuclear physicist as one of the most ridiculous things. Don't know which movie though.

The world is not enough, James Bond. And her name was Christmas Jones so that Bond could make a joke about Christmas coming more than once a year.

HAHAHAHAHA oh my god that’s so fucking funny.

Dr. Christmas Jones: Doctor Jones. Christmas Jones. And don't make any jokes, I've heard 'em all.

James Bond (deadpan): I don't know any doctor jokes.

I want to mock Bond girl names but I'm not sure I can come up with anything more ridiculous than Goldfinger's Pussy Galore.

She herself refers to how she played a “nuke-ular psychiatrist in a James Bonk movie” in the episode of 30 Rock where she and Tracy are leading a protest of NBC by their fellow idiots. 🤣

Some highlights from that episode.

I completely forgot about beer cans that told you how cold they were!

Are you thinking her Bond movie, The World is Not Enough? I don't think she was cast because of her ability to accurately portray a scientist...

I don't know, I just remember that from a youtube vid. 🤷 It could have been cinemasins or some other movie review channel.

James Bond: The World is Not Enough. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0143145/

She played Dr. Christmas Jones and is still the least believable part of any James Bond movie

But was still a fun character and it was a ludicrous but fun movie. At that time, they were leaning into the cheesez rather than trying for gritty, in the Daniel Craig era.

the world is not enough, a pierce brosnan bond movie:
"Posing as a Russian scientist Bond meets American nuclear physicist Dr. Christmas Jones cooperating with Russian armed forces in overseeing the dismantling of the site."

[–] Slovene@feddit.nl 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Aahhh, remember when Russia was seen as an enemy of the US of A? Pepperidge Farm remembers ... 🥲

Because this is a science memes page and because I've just noticed your instance, I'm not gonna go into it.
