Re: Best character in a Bond film.
From the same film (Live and Let Die?)
Bond - "The names" before he finishes Mr Big says - "Names is for tombstones baby"

Re: Best/worst Bond Villain....
Best villain: Robert Davi (Sanchez in "License To Kill" - complete fucking psycho nutjob)
Worst villain: Toss-up between Christopher Lee (Scaramanger in "The Man With The Golden Gun") and Charles Grey (Blofeld in "Diamods Are Forever")
Best henchman: Jaws
Worst henchman: Nick-Nack
Best Bond sidekick: Robbie Coltrane (Zukovsy in 2 of the Brosnan Bonds)
The throwaway lines are never as good written down, but there's always:
"I'm Plenty O' Toole" / "Named after your father no doubt"
"I'm Jenny Flex" / "Of course you are"
"If God had meant man to fly, Mr. Kidd ... " / "He'd have given him wings, Mr. Wint" (the two gay assassins, after blowing up a helicopter in "Diamonds Are Forever")
"I shan't ask you politely next time" (Bond trying to get information out of unnamed bad-guy in after beating the crap out of him and deftly tossing him through a wall at the beginning of "Diamods Are Forever")
.... usually it's more in the delivery and the accompanying expressions than the actual words.
And just to vent my spleen, I have to add:
Worst Bond girl of all time: Denise fucking Richards ("The World is Not Enough"). I can't stand her at the best of times, but she was about as convincing as a nuclear scientist as I would be as a body double for Katsumi !shocked!.
