Suggested correction: Not a mistake, and he is not looking directly into the camera. For all we know, he could've deemed Bond to be distinctive enough to stare at (perhaps he liked his blue shirt?), or he thought he looked familiar.

Other mistake: When the news reporters are waiting for Gustav to come, when a man says to Miranda: "Looks like your man's not going to make it", the man standing behind him and Miranda mouths these exact words. (00:48:35)

Other mistake: The underground station is supposed to have been abandoned long ago, and there is ancient advertising for Ford cars on the wall. But in the entranceway to the platform there's a recent ad for Philips electronics. (00:58:55)

Other mistake: During the final Ice Palace action sequence, as Bond is getting into his Aston Martin just prior to his 'automotive duel', he crouches beside the invisible car in order to minimise himself as a target as he tries to locate the handle to open the door. The explanation given by "Q" was that tiny cameras on each side project what's on the other side. Despite crouching behind his car, he would still have been visible on the other side. (01:33:00)

Other mistake: In the scene with all the high ranking Korean officers in the bunker, they all have identical medals even though they are different ranks/ages. One of them even has his upside down. (01:43:15)

Other mistake: Right after Bond and Jinx have descended through the clouds in their Switchblades, we cut to an airbase in North Korea. The caption (English Blu-ray) misspells Pyongyang as "Pyongang." (01:47:48)

Other mistake: In Cuba, when James wakes up after the night passed with Jinx, there's an insect walking on the image. [Corrected on Blu-ray.]

Plot hole: In the pre-title sequence, James Bond travels in a hovercraft along the dirt road, which is full of landmines. Soon after reaching the waterfall at the end, trucks drive up along the road he just drove in on to capture him. As there was only one road into the waterfall complex, the landmines must have all disappeared, as earlier on in that sequence, we are informed that the only way that the North Koreans can avoid the mines along that road is by hovercraft. (00:12:05)

James Bond: You know, you're cleverer than you look.
Q: Still, better than looking cleverer than you are.

Chosen answer: Frost is proud of her martial skills and Sun Tzu's Art of War is considered to be one of the classic texts on warfare, but that's about as far as it goes.
