Poll: James Bond's Greatest 'Hits'
During every James Bond film, the super spy has to deal with a hired assassin, sidekick or #2 to get to the main adversary. These people are often cruel and may have killed an associate of Bond. The spy will have a duel with them, enabling him to get to the bad guy. Although not always ending well, this is a key stage in the plot development and as a driver for Bond.
**Note/spoiler alert** There's a reminder of the outcome for each villain when you follow the link on their image. Please don't read them if you haven't seen the film.
In the list below, I've picked one villain from each Bond film. Whom of these does the spy manage to deal with in the most satisfactory way, or do you prefer the ones that get away?
