“I’ve been admiring your form” (Thunderball)
The 1960s Bond was such a patronising git he could not pay a lady a compliment without denigrating her gender in virtually the same breath. “Most girls just paddle around,” Sean Connery’s 007 tells Claudine Auger’s Domino following their first underwater encounter. “You swim like a man.” High praise indeed.

Hardly a misogynist - Bond loves the fairer sex. Only ball busting feminists who don't know how to be a lady would call him a misogynist.

Think the comments to Barbara Bach were based more on her nationality (Russian) than her gender. As has been said before, Bond loves women. Usually three a film.
If going by the original formula; one girl in the intro, the second one dies, and he ends up with the third at the end.

Turbo - exclusive trailerVideo by:Description: Turbo is a snail who dreams of being the greatest racer in the world. His obsession with speed has made him an oddity and outsider in the slow and cautious snail community. Turbo desperately wishes he could escape the slow-paced life he’s living, and he gets that chance after a freak accident leaves him with the power of incredible speed. The newly turbo-charged Turbo embarks on an extraordinary journey to achieve the impossible: racing against the best that the Indianapolis 500 has to offer. Joining Turbo is his dedicated pit crew of racing snails – a ragtag group of trash-talking adrenaline junkies tricked out with shells that look like mini-street racing cars. Turbo is the ultimate underdog who achieves the impossible by refusing to let his limitations get in the way of his dreams.Rating: 4Views: 15884
