Corrected entry: When Bond is chasing Mollaka on the tower crane, Mollaka fails to shoot Bond because he has run out of ammo; the pistol merely clicks. However, when a semiautomatic pistol is out of ammo, not only is the trigger mechanism disabled; more importantly, the slide locks back in the open position, making it obvious that the pistol cannot be fired.
Corrected entry: In the scene where Bond gives Vesper the kiss of life on top of the sunken building her chest does not inflate, showing he's not actually breathing into her.
Corrected entry: At the Miami airport, the bomber turns a key in something marked 'Emergency Sprinkler Override'. An 'override' would turn the sprinkler system off, not on. Sprinkler systems are usually filled with pressurized water. When a fire occurs, a lead link in a sprinkler head melts after reaching a designed temperature. This allows water to flow only through the specific sprinkler head(s) above the fire. You can turn an entire sprinkler system off by interrupting the flow of water into the system, but you can never turn an entire system 'on' with the flip of a switch or turn of a valve.
Correction: Fire Sprinkler Systems are primarily comprised of two designs, dry and wet systems. Fire sprinklers can be automatic or open orifice. Automatic fire sprinklers operate at a predetermined temperature. Open orifice sprinklers are only used in water spray systems or deluge sprinklers systems. Only the open orifice types go off all at once, and then only when they are arranged in a "deluge" system. The open orifice sprinkler is identical to the normal, automatic sprinkler, except the automatic heat-sensitive element is removed. Fire is detected outside the sprinkler itself. So, in a nutshell, what happened in the movie is very possible.
Corrected entry: On the last hand of the poker game, since Le Chiffre called Bond on his All In, Bond should have showed his cards first. But for the drama, Bond showing last was best suited .
Correction: 'Should have' but not necessarily 'must have.' I play live poker quite a lot and I can say that some of the arrogant players love to show their cards 'out of turn' because they think that they have the winning cards. Sometimes the dealer can make a mistake also, prompting the wrong player to reveal their cards.
Corrected entry: When Bond and Vesper sail into Venice they are in a yacht with a tall mast that would never be able to make it up the Grand Canal to the Rialto market where we see them as it would never be able to pass under the bridges crossing the canal.
Correction: Not sure what the error is here. The submitter is saying that the boat cannot possibly be there because of the height of its mast. But the boat is indeed at the location where the scene is being filmed; so either the fictional Bond or the real life filmmakers found a way to get it there - even if the mast had to be removed to do it.
Correction: It could have been a misfire, in that case the pistol would act exactly as it did in the movie.
