If it isn't, I'm gonna think they're stringing us out deliberately.

Um... yes, nice... I like the way Bond looks when Eve passes him.

Apart from that: Mendes is such a great director, I love Bond, I´ve always wanted to be in a Bond film, at least that´s what my PR guy wanted me to say...

Fluff.

Fluff mixed with visual stimulus. But I'll agree, didn't work on me. Next.

What a [censored] video blog.

Redundant, since we're so close to the release, and STILL don't know who is singing the title song-officially anyway- and this silly little video does nothing to appease me. And that rubbish Harris spouted about "being Bond's equal"... change the sodding the record.

Meh...we've already had the 'Ladies of Skyfall' blog haven't we? Christ, I was hoping for 'The Music Of Bond' or something like that.



Still, did I mention Berenice Marlohe is looking even HOTTER in this? No? Well, she is! Wow!

Totally agree, PPK!! Visually, it's great (and believe me, the more visuals of Berenice and Naomi..the better! hah..) but content wise....YAAWWNN!! Tell us something we haven't heard yet.. I was gutted that this new video blog wasn't the one we were all wanting focusing on Thomas Newman's score. Still though, can't complain too much..these Skyfall videoblogs have been so much more informative than the ones we got for Quantum of Solace..

The interviews were a bit naff, but interesting to see quite a lot of new scenes being filmed and how they look on screen. Bond and Eve meeting in the underground bunker for the first time since the "death" should be quite interesting. Also quite cool to see Eve firing a gun in the Whitehall Board of Inquiry scene.

I see it differently. Harris says the same thing she's said along, that her character "sees herself as being Bond's equal," but at the press conference, way back last November, she continued "but she isn't." In other words, they're taking the cliche that's developed over the last few movies and spinning it, so that the heroine's aspirations don't reflect her abilities. The record has been appropriately changed.

Yes, I agree. I quite like this, there is quite a bit more to it than it looks at first.

But truly, do we really expect anything else?

I believe we have to be as professional in our listening as they do in their speaking of these PR fluff lines. It's all the usual stuff, there aren't going to be any Moore-isms in these pieces. Just let them waft over your head as though they didn't exist.

For my money, there's a horrifically large spoiler at 1:39, if that particular room is the one I think it is.

I agree very much! - notice the similarity in the way her hair is to this, more pulled back at the sides than in the rest of the film.

I bet she has a grey dress on under that coat...

Yes, I was wondering if it was that room, too. Does that picture on the wall match any of the ones from the old films?

Exactly what I was about to say. I've been largely spoiler free this whole time, and though that shot doesn't show anything that would have taken me by surprise anyway, it's quite revealing if it is what it looks like.

I love the part where Marlohe says "Bond girls don't look like models." As La Rochefoucault observed...

I can think of other interpretations, but yeah, that sets off some bells.

I didn't know Eve was at the Floating Casino.

Yes, I agree. I quite like this, there is quite a bit more to it than it looks at first.

I didn't noticed that at first or the second time.

Good eye I also didn't notice this.

For my money, there's a horrifically large spoiler at 1:39, if that particular room is the one I think it is.

IMO I don't think this is a spoiler and I don't think it is what you think it is but that is just me.

Of the thousands of people who will probably watch that videoblog, it will only be a hint at a big spoiler to a relatively small number so I guess the movie team aren't too worried overall.

What do you think it is though?

Could it be Eve at MI6 before it is attacked? I guess I figured it was a waiting room or something into the bunker however we don't see Eve in that dress anywhere else do we?

As far as I know we don't see Eve in the scenes immediately preceding the attack on MI6 but, of course, there are lots of possible scenarios. :)
