In the earlier years of Eon's 007 franchise, the women in James Bond's universe were as remarkable as his single-passenger crocodile submarine. But unfortunately, they were often just as disposable, having been discarded or forgotten once Bond was done with them.

In 007's latest adventures, however, there seems to be a movement to change this trend.

(We're looking at you, Ms. Galore and Ms. Onatopp.)

Keep reading to see how Bond's beauties have changed with the times, and why they're becoming much more interesting, memorable and believable than Bond's flamethrower-equipped mini-copter ever was.
