Ready...aim...

Bang. Sorry, didn’t mean to scare you. It’s just the best way I knew how to greet Monday. Now, before we begin, I’d like to note that I in no way condone violence. I don’t own guns. I’ve never shot a gun. And I’m all for gun control. Suck it, NRA. Having said that, there is also something unspeakably sexy about a woman with a gun – like our gal Mariska. We’re going to ignore old Sigmund and all his talk of willy envy. Balderdash. This is just about power, and power has nothing inherently to do with willies. So there. What can I say, I’m a sucker for a gal with steely determination and killer aim – especially when she is not pointed at me. Happiness is a warm gun, being held by a hot lady.

Norma Desmond said...

YES! Seriously, all for gun control... so why do I love a lady with a gun so.much???

*iz ded*

I didn't read the post for a while, because putting Mariska first is dangerous.

I stared for a very long, long, long, long time.

Oooh, hotness! And from Scandinavia we have Noomi Rapace: http://tinyurl.com/ndw579
Noomi plays a bisexual character called Lisbeth Salander in the Swedish movie "Men Who Hate Women". This fall we'll see Rapace/Salander in "The Girl Who Plays With Fire", and there will be lots of guns.

There's also something sexy about women who smoke and women driving a car. And women with tools, like drills, hammers and such.

So, a woman drives to a parking lot, gets out of car wearing a tank top and smoking a cigarette, picks up her tools from the back of the car... That would kill me instantly.

(Disclaimer: otherwise I find smoking a filthy habit.)

Steph R said...

That's the best Monday I have ever seen- and they weren't even naked! Damn, you had be at 'gun'.

Lena Headey is surely SOMETHING ELSE! *fans self*

JODIE! JODIE! JODIE!

Keira Knightley. I first noticed her in Domino, totally kick ass

Guns and boobies are the best combi ever! :D

Jac said...

Hmm, in this one, only Anna Torv, Lena Headey, and Jodie Foster really do anything for me. And to think I used to be such a femme-only kinda gal.

Syd said...

I'm all for gun control too. If, by that, you mean "a steady hand".

What about Holly Hunter ?! As Grace in 'saving grace' she sure knows how to be a hot ladycop...

Sarah in Chicago said...

I'm so with you on this one DS ... I'm rabidly pro gun-control and wish guns were so rare that the most frequently one would see them would be in a museum.

However, I will admit, a woman wielding a gun, in an experienced manner, whether it be a pistol, rifle, or whatever ... downright insanely sexy :)

TheWeyrd1 said...

I know it's bad that, as a super long time (like forever) Jodie Foster fan, I still haven't seen The Brave One (blame it on letting my date pick the film when The Brave One was out and she'd already seen it so she pick some lame on instead). Anyway, since you insist on continuously posting hot pics of Jodie from this flick, I guess I must find a way to see it...heh.

Great post for the beginning of the week (or Tuesday for us down under ;) ). That photo of Mariska never fails to make me weak in the knees.

Have you been following Olivia Williams new film An Education? I had the pleasure of seeing it today, and I think that her playing a bookish teacher complete with tortoise shell glasses warrants a Weekend Crush sequel. http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb88/

So glad that Jodie Foster was on the list. As I was scrolling down I was getting worried that she had somehow been missed.

Hottest woman with a gun, perhaps ever. =)

So anonymous's comment:"So, a woman drives to a parking lot, gets out of car wearing a tank top and smoking a cigarette, picks up her tools from the back of the car... That would kill me instantly." Must see Gina Gershon in "Bound". She has all the elements that are required and then some. There are a couple of scenes in that movie that are volcanic hot.

Sadly, Gina isn't mentioned here. Does she not use a gun in "Bound"?

elliB said...

I wrote a similar blog a ways back about how I abhor guns, but when Linda Hamilton cocks that shotgun with one hand at the end of T2... oof. And I ordinarily dont even really find LH that attractive.

Shesfiiine said...

Are you kidding me?!?! Where is Pepa (Laura Sánchez) from Los Hombres De Paco... she NEEDS to be on this list!

Reverend Jane Ignatowski said...

Katee. Sackhoff. as. Starbuck.

It helps when there is a lot of cleavage showing also...just saying...

If I were a kitty I'd be loudly purring now :)

chels said...

ladies with guns and we can't even get ms. jolie in here? lara croft, fox, jane smith...

maybe you should just have "angelina with guns" for a post...

Your friend, Rusty said...

I would add Mary McCormack In Plain Sight and old skool Run and Gun with Cagney and Lacey

Anonymous said...

Hey Hot is Hot no gun needed!!!!

OR WANTED...

plasticcalifornia said...

I agree with chels, how can you have a post about hot women w/ guns and not include the gun wielding master of them all Angie. AJ has probable donned more guns than all these ladies combines, especially since she is a fan of two at a time!

Anonymous said...

I cannot believe you left Gillian Anderson off the list.

Becky said...

Snarker! What is wrong with yoU!?! No Galactica??? :-o I am in shock and slightly disappointed! Now you need to have an entire post of women of BSG wielding guns..

Anonymous said...

Hey, you forgot Laura Sanchez from Los Hombres De Paco!!!

She's beautiful, she plays a lesbian cop, and she's got a damn good shot!

sappho96 said...

wow mariska cheered me up after a few bad days in work. the last episode of series 10 is on tonight in the uk: perfect timing! can i request some piccies of poppy montgomery from without a trace - far too hot to never be mentioned!

Melanie.Trini said...

Excellent post. But you really should have included Sophia Bush in the Hitcher. That last scene of her with the gun... hot!

see it here:

Dynamite Monday blog! But darling... where the hell is Kyra Sedgwick??? I mean, MONDAY means: THE CLOSER!
lol great blog, btw.

Beautiful.
Next, how about women smoking? Smoking cigarettes, cigars, smoking hot. A filthy habit, yes. Deadly in the end, yes. But crazy sexy? yes yes yes.

No matter what the subject, thanks for the pics of the lovely ladies.

pernicious piggy said...

It brings a tear to my eye that Pam Grier was included, in all of her Coffy/Foxy Brown heavenly glory! Now that was a woman who could wield a six-shooter *and* sport some cool threads while doing so!

O hells yes

triplestripe said...

keira and jodie... phwoa.

Including Mariska is going to be doubly appropriate come the fall, if this post on the SVU production blog is to be believed.

Wait, What about Milla Jovovich from the Resident Evil Movies?
Example :

From her first film. 8D

mariska hargitay doing pretty much anything is photo worthy, list worthy, just WORTHY.

As far as gun totin' babes, besides the lovely Det. Olivia Benson, I would have to add Carrie Moss as Trinity in the Matrix trilogy, and Sigourney Weaver as Ripley in the Aliens series.

00 said...

Pam Grier! Hells yeah!!

la. said...

why is it that Sarah Shahi always leaves me all hot and bothered!? Girl could wear a potato sack and still look delicious.

TechFem50 said...

OMG! You saved the best for last. Jodie looking butch. :D I can sleep easier now.

Great list, Dorothy

Definitely need a part II -- with Pepa Miranda, Sofia Curtis & BSG women!

Brenda said...

OMG. I love these girls and their guns. Sorry my comment is so late but I was away on vacation. I would like to add one more, though. Peta Wilson, aka Nikita. Hot, hot, hot!

I know, late to the party... but come on now - I don't see enough Criminal Minds love on this wonderful Dorothy blog. Paget Brewster with a gun is hot in ways that defy explanation...
