I was with my friend and his girlfriend when we saw it. (we are all cool together so it's not third wheel). When she came out in that orange bikini, she was trying to put her hands over Justin's eyes. Jenna has a nice body, but as you said Brandon .. Berry Berry good.

Of course it's the highest opening ever. When I saw TWINE, it cost $7.25 to see a movie at the normal theator I go to. Now it's $9. Every bond movie should gross better then the last, at least during the opening weekend. If it's horrible, the revenue will drop off after the first week.

This weekend should be interesting. Neither Die another Day or Harry Potter have any real competition, so it'll be interesting to see which has staying power. I'm going to see Die another Day again for sure though :)

The ticket costs are one reason, but the amount of theaters is another. When it opens in 3,000+ theaters that also increases the weekend box office amounts.

I saw it yesterday and it was very good. In fact the only part I didn't like about it was Halle Berry. How she EVER won an oscar is beyond me. She was the only person in the entire movie to stand out as just a flat out bad actor.

Give me a break, she can't be NEARLY as bad as that dumb bitch Denise Richards in TWINE!!!! ;) And have you seen Introducing Dorothy Dandridge for which she won an Emmy? Great performance. Halle CAN act, it's just that Bond movies aren't suited to let the female leads "out act" or "out wit" Bond...that just wouldn't be right.

Ticket prices is one reason plus the amount of advertising and press coverage for the movie is crazy. Any crap movie can have a huge opening weekend if its hyped enough.

This again proves that the AT crows has NO TASTE AT ALL.
That movie is absolutely HORRIBLE.
Go and see some of the old Bond flicks, they were GOOD! (and YES, I like Pierce Brosnan as Bond.)

And Mrs. (Fvck-) Hole Berries should stop pretending to be an actress and go back to being a prostitute.
(How else has she got these roles?)

You are entitled to your own opinion, but instults like that are uncalled for. Halle Berry is actually a very good actress, and aparently, the academy thinks so as well:

1999: Golden Globe: Best Actress (Miniseries, TV Movie) for Introducing Dorothy Dandridge
1999: Screen Actors Guild: Female Actor (Televison Movie or Miniseries), Introducing Dorothy Dandridge
2002: Screen Actors Guild: Best Actress, Monster's Ball
2002: Oscar: Best Actress, Monster's Ball

It wasn't very good. The best movie with Brosnan is Goldnen Eye.
They did very bad job with the part where he surfes the wave when
that huge piece of ice causes big wave.
At one point it was just sooo cheap. The whole thing looked like Doom or Quake...
The first ones that is... :|
