Corrected entry: Q chides Bond for not returning the Aston Martin in one piece, but it was Bond's personal car that he won in the Bahamas according to Casino Royale - why would he need to return it?
Corrected entry: The sealed off room in the L'American hotel is a fantasy. For one, a maid or the owners should spot that a room is missing from their own hotel. Secondly, we know that Mr. White visited frequently, and as recently as the events in Casino Royale as evidenced by Vesper Lynd's interrogation tape. Whilst it's conceivable he was able to secure the same room every year, that he was able to replaster and repaint the wall as well stretches belief.
Correction: Mr. White could have bribed the hotel staff to keep the room a secret. They probably redid the wall too.
Corrected entry: During the opening scene when Bond is fighting the pilot in the helicopter, the joystick changes considerably between close ups when they are trying to get control of it, both the size and shape and the amount of controls on top.
Correction: There are 2 different control "Sticks" in the helicopter (not 1), the Collective is on one side of the pilot and the Cyclic is in front between his legs.
Corrected entry: In the title sequence, the pilot completes several rolls and a stall loop in a Balcow helicopter. This has flexible rotors and would destroy itself if attempted. Only a lynx helicopter can complete these manoeuvres as it is fitted with re enforced rigid paddle rotors.
Correction: The helicopter used in that sequence is a Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm Bo 105, which also has a rigid rotor blade design. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/film/james-bond-spectre/trailer-helicopter-barrel-roll-stunt/.
Corrected entry: Whilst flying the BN Islander aircraft, Bond uses the engine 'mixture controls' (two levers on the left with red knobs) rather than the engine throttles (accelerators), which are the levers on the right. Pulling back the mixture to lean would stop both engines.
Correction: The islanders have throttles on the left, where James was pushing. The one in this particular one happened to be the same colour as the mixture controls, that are also visible and red, but on the right.
Corrected entry: Bond fights the two guards at the clinic and goes outside to get Hinx. At this point he is now suddenly wearing very dark sunglasses.
Correction: He puts them on as he comes out.
Corrected entry: Bond gets into M's Jaguar XJ through the left hand rear door, but within minutes, Q is alone in the back seat, while Bond is in the left front seat.
Corrected entry: During the car chase Bond uses the rear machine gun but it's unloaded. The car was assigned to Bond then reassigned to 009 who we heard had come to collect it, which means the car should be fit for service and fully armed, regardless of it being a prototype or not.
Correction: 009 had come to collect the car, but that does not mean it was fully armed. When given a weapon it is not handed over loaded, you are simply supplied with both a gun and the required ammunition. Additionally, Bond stole the car before it had been handed over, who is to say Q didn't need to finalise the equipment during the handover, rather than leaving it fully weaponised in the garage.
Corrected entry: When Daniel Craig unzips Monica Bellucci's dress, she has no bra or lingerie on her top half. But in the next scene, when Daniel is getting ready to leave, they show Monica on the bed and she is suddenly wearing a corset.
Correction: The next scene takes place after a considerable amount of time. There was plenty of opportunity for Monica to apply a corset during that period, for reasons unknown.
Correction: Because now Q will be asked to repair the vehicle. More work and the fact that Bond rarely returns items in 1 piece.
