it's that chick from la belle personne!
she can do better than a bond movie, no one deserves to be in a bond movie

Every bond girl? Really? Not one in the lot you can muster a fancy for?

She won a Palme d'Or for being an actress in a movie.
I think she can indulge herself a little bit.

Pretty sure her ego wasn't the reason she was cast.
I can think of two valid reasons.

I don't think I've ever heard of her. She's pretty, though.

Judi Dench was the real Bond girl in Skyfall.

she's 29, wtf you talking about
Mine too probably, high five...
You seriously thought Skyfall was worse than Quatum of Solace? Okay.
Yep absolutely in about every single way outside of cinematography. The first two Craig films broke new ground and established a new direction for the series....and then Skyfall rolled back out the old formula and tropes. They completely bungled what should have been the most impactful death in the series outside Tracey and Vesper too. It's telling when Mathis' death, who was a secondary character in all of two films, is much more poignant and affecting than M's.

Between her and Famke Janssen, Goldeneye still has the best bond girls ever.

Hopefully she is the "Bond Girl who has an almost believable love story with 007 and stay around the whole movie" and not "Bond Girl James bones and then she dies". Can't be worse than that time Bond fucked and killed a sex slave with a pithy remark afterwards.
Seydoux has a pretty impressive resume for 29. Already worked with Tarantino, Ridley Scott, Brad Bird, Wes Anderson, Woody Allen...but in everything from hugely successful blockbusters like Ghost Protocol to Palme D'or winning foreign movies with heaps of accolades. Ego probably Kanye size, nobody can tell her nothing.

Wait....there are people that think Skyfall was bad?
I mean yea it isn't the best Bond movie but it was better than the snoozefest Quantum of Solace. Hell, Casino Royale's parkour scene was more interesting than all of Quantum.

The only reason to rewatch skyfall
All I could think about during Ben Wishaw's scenes was "they should have cast Richard Ayoade". And I quite like Wishaw.

She is terrific in Blue is the Warmest Colour... too terrific... it's difficult to see her in another role without those 'scenes' coming to mind. Though she is definitely suited for Bond.
agreed there
Pussy Galore though

I always liked Ursula Andress (Honey Ryder) as well.

No idea who she is.
Every film that gets popular eventually gets backlash.
