Dr. No

A car chase early on has a cutaway to the speedometer of the villain pursuing Bond, of a dashboard totally and obviously different to the actual one on the car, and the director knew it, but they were low budget and had no choice, but felt that if the scene was working (it does) nobody should really be stopping to notice such things. Still.....

When the black guy gets cut by the bottle he has a lot of blood on his face and the rag. The next scene he's fine with no blood.


Diamonds are Forever

The famous car chase ends with Bond's car tipping up on its right wheels to fit through a pedestrian path. However, when it emerges the other side, it's tipped on its left wheels.

Blofeld is played by an actor that is not bald (Blofeld was bald in 2 previous episodes). He is also played by Charles Gray, who played the part of one of the good guys in You Only Live Twice.

During the car chase scene through Las Vegas, you can see the crowds lining the streets to watch the filming, yet in some of the street scenes there are no crowds.


Thunderball

When 007 is diving and fights with some divers his diving mask changes colour from blue to orange.

When James Bond is fighting underwater with an opponent, the opponent rips off James' diving mask (which is blue). Then James rips another mask off off another opponent who is lying dead on the ocean floor. This dead opponent's mask is black. James puts on the black mask and then he turns around and the mask is blue again.


On Her Majesty's Secret Service

Blofeld is played by Telly Savalas. In a previous "episode" of James Bond, Blofeld had met James Bond and had ordered him killed, yet in OHMSS, when Bolfeld meets James Bond, he doesn't recognise him.


For Your Eyes Only

When he goes into the hotel room, you can hear a shower running. The shower stops, and about 2 seconds later the girl comes out wearing only a towel, however she is completely dry.

When Bond and company attack Kristato's warehouse, it is in the middle of the night, however as Bond runs up the stairs to chase the escaping bad guy, he reaches the top in broad daylight.


Licence to kill

007 receives a lighter from Felix and Della, when he uses it and the flame is big, in the beginning and the end, you can see a tube is connected to the lighter and the tube goes into his suit.


Goldeneye

When Bond and Natalia eject from the helicopter, you can clearly see two white parachutes, but when the capsule lands, in two scenes you see the parachutes being red and white.

James Bond does his bungee jump down a dam that looks like it's in the beginning of spring, but when he emerges from the factory, it is dead winter with no dam in site, since they are on a mountaintop.

In the scene where Bond rushes about Saint-Petersburg, Russia, his tank running up the monument (the stone rider with sword in his hand and on the winged horse). That monument has never existed in Saint-Petersburg.

When the dead admiral falls out of the closet on the boat the morning after Xenia kills him, and James Bond opens the closet door, as he's falling he has a straight face and eyes looking straight ahead, but after he lands and it shows his face, his eyes are looking upwards and he's grinning.

The giant radio dish in Cuba is actually Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico. It could not be filled with water like it was in the movie.

When James Bond and his female companion are slipping down the giant radio dish (Arecibo observatory), they slide. In real life, they would have fallen through the dish.


Tomorrow Never Dies

In the scene where the ship is being confronted by the Japanese Migs and is attacked by the Stealth Boat an alarm sounds on the ship and all the sailors in the mess hall leave and go to their battle stations. A few shots later when the drill hits the ship and water rushes in it shows three or four sailors in the mess hall getting hit by the rushing water.

When Bond and the Asian girl have jumped out of the window, they the banner to escape and rip it. A few shots later we can see the banner and it's not ripped.

After 007 and Michelle Yeoh escaped their enemies they take a shower. Pierce Brosnan is bare-chested. How could he get rid of his shirt when they are handcuffed together?

The helicopter, in the motorbike scene, does a strafing in a narrow road. That's absolutely impossible, as either some cloth would get clogged into the main rotor, or it would hit something and break. But that doesn't matter much, as the 'copter is going too slow to be tilted at that angle anyway.

Towards the end, Bond fires with a silencer but the shot is much louder than it should.

In one scene the Pierce Brosnan and Michelle Yeoh jump off the top of a building. They are handcuffed together and used a banderole as to soften the fall. However the did not make it to the ground and had to do a "Die Hard" trough the a window. They both jump through each a window, but there is some kind of post between the two windows. How could they get through when they are cuffed together?
