Well, did anybody really care that Denise Richards doesn't even know how to spell "Ph.D."? She's not there to act, man, she's there to be eye candy. Although, in fairness, there have been some Bond girls that were actually pretty good actresses.

Agreed:
We don't go to Bond movies for great acting or believable stories.
We go for incredible chases, cool gadgets, and hot leading ladies. Personally, I thought Halle Barry was a bigger casting blunder than Denise R - I still don't understand the Halle Barry hype - she's an average actress of barely better than average looks - but that's just me.
My Casting Malfunctions:
#1: Keanau Reeves as anyone who is supposed to have a modicum of intelligence.
#2: Demi Moore in anything related to the military.
#3: George Clooney in anything lasting longer than 60 mins or that doesn't include commercials.
#4: Leonardo DiCaprio - period.
#5: Ewan McGregor as Obi Wan - horrid.
#6: Ben Stiller as anything other than Leonardo DiCaprio's boyfriend.
I'm not even a fan of hers as eye candy. She looks too stupid.
