Jacob La Cour

Character mistake: When discussing where to look for the St. Georges, and Melina tells that her father saw a diving bell, Bond reasons: "Diving bell - oil exploration - Christatos" But diving bells are not used for oil exploration.

Character mistake: In the ice-hockey scene Bibi says: "They say that he is a defector from East Germany." That fits very poorly with the statement during the biathlon scene, where he is referred to as "The East German Champion".

Character mistake: When the plane is landing, and we see out the window that landing is less than 10 seconds away, the captain says: "Cabin crew take your seats." By that point they should have been seated for a long time.

Jacob La Cour

Character mistake: When in the mineshaft Trevor says that magnesium is used in gunpowder. That is not correct.

Jacob La Cour

Character mistake: In the scene at Kerim Bey's office, when the bomb goes off, we see a heavy desk topple over. Bey says he was saved because he was relaxing on the couch with a girl. But he wasn't at the desk before either. He was sitting in some sort of sofa arrangement in a different corner of the room. We don't even see the desk before the bomb goes off. (00:32:05)

Jacob La Cour

Character mistake: When Flynn opens the secret compartment in the Buddah, he pushes the signs for 'me' and 'e' to spell 'me'. But that is hardly how 'me' is spelled in that ancient language.

Jacob La Cour

Character mistake: When Flynn is in the treetop in the jungle he says their position is minus X degrees latituded and minus Y degrees longitude. Positions are not indicated with minus - but North or South (of the Equator), and East or West (of Greenwich).

Jacob La Cour

Character mistake: Flynn has been reading for a while, taking notes, spreading books around, etc. - when Nicole arrives and says that it was nice to watch take-off from the cockpit. The plane must have been in the air for a long time by then.

Jacob La Cour

Character mistake: When Carver is to go live to the World, his assistant is counting down 5, 4, 3, 2. She does not say 1 and 'Now', as they never do, in order for her voice not to be heard on the broadcast. But if you do the counting, Carver starts before she would have reached 'Now'. Consequently there would be a risk that Carver's first words were not heard on the live broadcast. That would be very unprofessional.

Jacob La Cour

Character mistake: In the President's speech he says that 'The Bible calls this day Armageddon'. That is not correct. In John's Revelation 16 verse 16 it says 'And he gathered them on the place which in Hebrew is called Harmageddon'. Even aside from spelling variations, Armageddon is a place, not a point in time.

Jacob La Cour

Character mistake: When Jack arrives in New York he's right next to the Statue of Liberty. However when he reaches the library he comes from the East River and walks west. That is a pretty big detour around the southeastern corner of Manhattan, instead of taking the direct route. (01:47:00 - 01:48:20)
