It looked very elegant, but I'm not very sure I liked the dress Berry is wearing. Perhaps it is very nice - I just have to wait to get a second look at it. Brosnan, of course, is in a tuxedo. I can say with all certainty that it is the Ice Palace/"Ballroom" set at Pinewood.

What time Thursday night? I'll charge up the digital camera, clear the memory stick, and try to capture a video of it.

[john007]

its on at 6:30 p.m. my time, which is central time here in central Canada and the States. I guess you'll have to check your local listings. About Halle's dress. I thought that on her it looked good. It was dipped really low in the back. Of course Pierce looked great. I don't know if i told you this already but my grandfather started a mens clothing strore and tuxedo shop when he first came to Canada from Italy. I work there know (Family and stuff) so i know a thing or two about tuxedos, and Pierce looked great! Im gonna record it and my dad just told me that he might be able to capture it in MPEG format at work and i'll be able to send it to Daniel sometime friday night! Hopefully it all works out!!

[Blue Eyes]

Well that's great news! Take photos of your tv screens, capture it. Do whatever, just try and get some media in to us for the world to see.

I'm going to try and set up my digital camera to record it too.

Australians: I believe Channel 9 will be showing the episode either on Thursday or Friday at 11:30am. If you know the exact date please clarify it for me

Madonna cameo? New dress? Anyone thinking Sheena Easton like cameo? I hope so... this really is the only way I;d be happy seeing her in the movie. Hmm... bet it was the tyranical Madge's to have herself in the film.

[Blue Eyes]

Footage from the preview segment is now on the main page!

[JimmyBond]

agentbond is that you? I really do grow tired of these "Brosnan is not in the public eye posts" You know what, who cares? I mean really, at least we're getting footage of the film.

[john007]

Everyone head over to http://www.etonline....rity/a10207.htm the DAD is now online at the Entertainment Tonight website, with video's and the inteview!

BOB GOEN: When I was reading up on the character, there seemed to be confusion on your part as to whether or not she's a villain or an accomplice. Have you figured it out yet?

HALLE BERRY: I figured it out but I've been sworn to secrecy. Like all the Bond movies, there's a little bit of mystery to it and intrigue and they like to keep that going up until the last. But if I will say one thing about my character, Jinx, she is sort of the female Bond -- if there were a female Bond. I think this is a pretty good equivalent.

BOB: So she can keep up with him?

HALLE: Oh yeah, oh yeah.

BOB: How does she dress?

HALLE: There's a couple bikinis, [with] a particular scene just to pay homage to [the famous URSULA ANDRESS bikini scene from 'Dr. No'].

BOB: Your idea?

HALLE: No, in the script. I wouldn't have wanted to do that, really. How do you relive a moment that is probably one of the most remembered and loved images of any Bond women? Like, why me? Why do I have to recreate that? That kind of scared me, but you know Jinx is a fashionable girl, she's fashion forward and very sexy and takes fashion risks, and I love her for that.

BOB: Clear this up for us: In the states we've gotten all kinds of stories about your eye injury [during a helicopter stunt]. We've heard everything from a speck of dust to shrapnel the size of a charcoal briquet. What really happened?

HALLE: Well, I wouldn't say it was a speck of dust or shrapnel. It was somewhere more along the dust lines, though it was something that blew in my eye and probably scratched across my cornea. And if anybody's had a scratched cornea, it's not serious -- it's just really painful. For insurance reasons, I had to go to a hospital. I got eye drops and within hours I was better and back to work. That was it. It was great how it got blown out of proportion.

BOB: Now, obviously you're going to have some love scenes with Pierce. After the love scene with BILLY BOB [in 'Monster's Ball'], this has got to be a piece of cake, huh?

HALLE: Every love scene from now on will be, after that. You can't ever top that. I don't think it's possible. I don't really see a reason to ever go that far again. That was a unique movie. That scene was special and pivotal and needed to be there and it would be a really special script that would require something like that again.

BOB: Have you noticed a definitive change since you won the Oscar [for that performance]?

HALLE: Yeah, I really have. Life feels different, and not so much Oscar, but it just feels like I'm different because of the whole experience. I've grown and been enriched and feel more empowered and more excited about the future. For me, [as] a black woman, this is just the beginning, because now the door is open.

BOB: How does a James Bond film fit into the [Oscar] picture?

HALLE: People love James Bond. Being in a Bond movie right after winning an Oscar is the best thing I think I can do. It's a big movie around the world, it's splashy, it's exciting, it's sexy, it's provocative, it's fun and it will keep me still out there after winning an Oscar. I can assure myself I'm not going to fall off into obscurity after that grounding achievement.

Oh and alfie you must realize that ET is covering Halle Berry because she is American, and ET is an AMerican program. They know that this is a bond movie, but for ratings sake use Halle, a recent Oscar winner, to grab peoples attention. Of course i'm sure the british media pays alot more attention to Pierce!

[Blofeld's Cat]

WOW!

Halle sure fills out a dress nicely.

Can't wait for the actual segment to be posted.

Hint, hint.

[mkkbb]

Did anyone notice Miranda Frost in that clip. She was standing next to Bond in a far out shot. She was wearing a white fur coat.

(At least I assumed it was her).

This scene looks great, bigger than what I had thought the room would have been. Reminds me of the scene in TSWLM where Bond meets XXX in a bar before Jaws kills the chap in the telephone booth.

[Mr. Solo]

Another quote from Halle was "Hello James, your not just here to see the penguins" or something very close along those lines.

I think she made a crack about Bond being in a "penguin suit" (i.e., tuxedo).

From the brief glimpses I got, the Ice Palace *does* look amazing... but, as has been mentioned before, shouldn't it be damn cold in there?

[Blue Eyes]

Great pick up mkkbb! I noticed her the first time but never thought "Oh that's our Rosamund". Perfect! Hopefully we'll see some footage of her in the thing.

Blonde hair, pulled back. Low cut white dress I think, with a white fur shawl of sorts.

[JimmyBond]

I think that pic that shows Rosamund Pike is after they got done shooting. If you notice, Brosnans tie is untied and his collar is loosend. The only time Bond is like that, is when he's in his hotel room (as in Tomorrow Never Dies) I did in fact see the preview clip on last nights show, it went by a little quick. I did notice that generic spy music that they play, the same music that they played when they had a set report for Tomorrow Never Dies. Anyone know what that music is from?

[zencat]

Boy, it's all about Halle, isn't it? She's definetly the selling point of this movie.

Ice palace looks great.

[JimmyBond]

Ok, this might be a dumb question for you guys, but the Ice palace is entirely ice right? If so, wouldnt it get cold in there? And if thats so, why are they walkng around in formal wear?
