There were loads of mistakes in that new James Bond film Die Another Day, 65 of these mistakes are listed below:
 

When James and Jinx enter the Antonov, they climb through a door in the cargobelly-floor. In a pressurized aircraft there is absolutely no connection between the pressurised cabin and the wheelwells.

 When M leaves Bond's bedside, the doors close but the LED of the security computer lock stays green. It should have turned into red to show that the door had been closed.

 When Bond is about to sneak into the restricted area of the ice palace, he takes out two guards by opening a valve and causing steam to explode over them. He opens the valve by turning a wheel, which appears to be metal, using bare hands in sub-zero temperatures. Under those conditions his hands would have stuck to the metal and Bond would have left a good few layers of his skin on the wheel.

 Bond cuts a hole in the ice so that he can swim across to the huge greenhouse. He pushes the circular section that he just cut out down then drops into the hole and starts swimming. Two problems with this - first, the entire area is sitting on a frozen lake. If he pushed the circular block of ice down, it should have just bobbed back up to the surface. Second, when we see the underwater shot of him entering the frozen lake the circular piece of ice he cut out is nowhere to be seen.

 In the car chase scene across the ice plains in Iceland, Bond's car is flipped onto its roof by an exploding rocket. He flips the car upright again by ejecting the passenger seat, yet when he rescues Jinx from the melting room, the seat has magically reappeared for her to rest on. How can this be?

 After the helicopter escape at the end, a red sports car is sticking nose down in the ground after falling hundreds of feet down out of the airplane, without a singe crack in the windshield, in mint condition.

 When Bond first sees Jinx get out of the water, she is naturally dripping wet. After it cuts to him, it cuts back to her and she is already bone dry as she is picking up her towel to dry off.

 When Jinx and Bond sneak onto Grave's plane, Jinx can be seen with a nickel plated pistol (this is also evident throughout the entire film). Yet when Jinx is in the cockpit and Frost tells her to hand over the gun, it's now no longer nickel plated but standard gun metal black.

 When Bond is driving in the Chevy in Havana, look at the speedometer. It's clearly at zero.

 During the final Ice Palace action sequence, as Bond is getting into his Aston Martin just prior to his 'automotive duel', he crouches and hides behind the invisible car, even though Q was fairly clearly seen through the car when it was introduced.

 After James arrives in Iceland and pulls up to the door, he gets out, and a driver gets in to park the car. We hear the door close and the sound of him driving off, but in the next shot the car is still there.

 During the car chase scene on the ice, the green Jaguar fires a minigun at Bond's car several times. Amazingly, Bond's car doesnt even have a scratch on it. Even if the car was bullet proof, it would still have large dents and scratches, not to mention the large cracks in the glass, the likes of which could be seen when Q fires a pistol at a sheet of bullet proof glass earlier in the film.

 Hovercraft would set off mines. Downward pressure is exerted by the fans to keep them off the ground, just as much as if they were sitting on the ground directly. It wouldn't even make sense if the only mines used were pressure type antipersonnel mines. However, there is more than one kind of land mine, and many of them rely on methods other than pressure for detonation. Some anti-vehicle ordnance can detect the magnetic field given off by large vehicles and detonate that way, and systems on the drawing board use radar to aquire and aim at a vehicle in the nearby vicinity once deployed. Many mine systems also use trip wires for detonation. The Soviets were particularly fond of that system, and spread it throughout their dominion. But surely the North Koreans, having been neighboors and good buddies with the USSR for 40 years would be all too familiar with trip wire land mines, and would go out of their way to avoid them. In short any ground based advance is ill-advised on any minefield, as any good minelayer is going to use several different types of mines - the hovercraft would have set them all off.

 During the Iceland scenes, Bond cuts a hole in the surface of the ice and then swims through the water. As the surface is frozen, the water itself would have been close to freezing. How does Bond manage to swim in it with no protection against the cold? He doesn't even display any discomfort at swimming with his eyes open.

 Why do the U.S give up after sending one rocket against the Icarus satellite? Why don't they just send 50 or 100 rockets up at the same time, all going in different directions? There would be no way the Icarus satellite could shoot them all down. That would of stopped the bad guy's master plan much more quicker.

 In the first half of the movie, Miranda Frost is shown as completely blonde. Before sleeping with James Bond in Iceland, she is still blonde. In the next scene, she wakes up being brunette. Did bond colour her hair before leaving for the mission?

 When Zao is having DNA alteration he still has the diamonds embedded in his face - what's the point in getting a face change? If they can be removed why hasn't he done this first? If they can't be removed he'll have a different face with a whole mess of diamonds embedded in it, which would be quite a major giveaway.

 Several times in the movie we can clearly see Bond's unblemished torso, but are we to believe that after 14 months of torture in a Korean prison he would have no scars?

 Why does the part of the ice palace in which Jinx is imprisoned melt so much faster than the rest? And why doesn't that apply to the walls and door?

 When Bond is in the car following the goons heading into the facility, it shows Mr. Kill scan a card and then swipe it to open a door. Before he swipes it, the door is already opening.

 The Aston is left invisible overnight at Graves' diamond mine. Given the temperature, there would surely have been a thick layer of frost on the car making it look like a giant ice sculpture.

 Just before Jinx jumps off the top of the cliff and dives into the water, she removes her dress. In the next shot after removing the dress, the dress itself is nowhere to be seen.

 During the car chase on the ice, Bond's Aston Martin flips over. You can see the right wing mirror break off as this happens. All through the rest of the chase, both wing mirrors are fine.

 Fencing jackets are reinforced on the weapon arm and zip up on the opposite side. Thus a right handed fencer has the closure on the left. Bond is fencing right handed but is wearing a left-handed jacket.

 Given the amount of time Bond was maltreated by the North Koreans you'd think he would have suffered the effects of malnourishment (lost weight, muscle tone). Yet when he is seen bare-chested after the prisoner exchange, he appears perfectly fit and is able to win a physically demanding sword fight against Gustav Graves.

 The ice palace appears to be on a sheet of ice about 8-12 inches thick above the water. After Bond steals the ice racer he seems to go on level ground until he gets to a cliff with the sea hundreds of feet below - did the tide go out ?

 We see the cars that were dropped out the plane have landed front end down in a ditch, but they have engines in the rear, making the back of the car more heavy, and due to the laws of physics, if anything they would land back end down.

 When we first meet Jinx, she has just been swimming. When she meets James Bond and starts talking to him, she has lip gloss and eye shadow on. Surely she couldn't put it on that quickly?

 The sun reflector, when concentrated, emits an extremely bright, and hot ray of light. However, when Graves is using it to melt the Ice Palace it's directly over everything that's melting yet all interior scenes don't seem any brighter than they were before.

 When Gustav Graves has his little reunion with his father on the plane, he kills him and steals his medal. Now, that medal is the Order of Lenin, a Russian medal. A North Korean, even one who fought in the Korean War, wouldn't be awarded one.

 When Bond and Jinx are trying to escape in the helicopter, they open the door and start the conveyor. The red car drops. Quite a few seconds later, the yellow car is dropped. Yet, later, we see the cars nose down in the mud about 20 feet apart. How did this happen when the plane was moving at such speed?

 Towards the end of the film when Jinx tries to level out the plane, she stabalizes it at just over 5,000 feet and then starts the fight with Miranda. Yet when Jinx and Bond are in the helicopter when it is falling out of the sky the altitude they fall from is clearly about 12,000 feet.

 When Bond first arrives at the Ice Palace and Miranda is showing him to his room. The door started to open before she flashes the door card at the sensor.

 When M is talking to the American over the webcam conection, look at the bottom of the screen when we see the American. You can see the back of the webcam that is supposed to be taking the image. In the next shot it is gone.

 When Gustav Graves comes to the ice place riding in the ice racer he stops by using a square parachute used to stop high speed vehicles, later when Bond escapes in the ice racer he takes the parachute out of the ice racer to parachute down the cliff, But it is an entirely different parachute, one used for sky diving.

 When Bond is talking to the General, he has his handcuffs on behind his back. When he starts walking down to the other side of the boardwalk his hands are at his sides without any restraints, and no-one undid them.

 When John Cleese is trying to regain control of the jet pack after Bond fools around with it, you can make out two strings diagonally attached to the top to lift the pack as the top comes down into view.

 During the car chase on the ice, Bond's Aston Martin flips over. At this point, one of the roof bars snaps off, but magically reappears in the next scene.

 The plane is an Antov 124 (Russian) In some scenes the instruments are Cyrillic, in others they are English.

 In the scene where Gustav Graves is demonstrating the power of Icarus, the audience has their sunglasses on to block the sunlight. After Icarus is shut down everyone has their sunglasses off. However, in a quick shot of Bond after the audience has taken off their sunglasses, a woman is seen taking off her sunglasses after we have already seen her take them off in a similar shot.
 

 If James Bond is supposed to be in Iceland, why is it whenever you see him breathing in an exterior shot, you don't see any steam coming from his mouth, as would happen in a cold environment?

 When the plane at the end is first seen, the helicopter is at the back. The same is true when James is seen climbing into the hold of the plane. But when it comes to the end the cars have suddenly jumped to the back.

 Near the film's end, Gustav is clinging to an opening in the plane when Bond activates his electrocution button. This causes Gustav to surge with the same voltage he dished out earlier. Why is he being electrocuted? The shocks are released via the glove. If he was clinging from a metal plane, the glove would've sent the electricity throughout the plane's frame as opposed to just him.

 Bond goes to Iceland for the little demonstration. In reality Iceland is not very icy at all. Greenland is the frozen tundra. Iceland is actually quite lush and green.

 When M visits Bond's bedside in the ship's medical facility she closes both the glass sliding doors behind her. When she leaves they are both open.

 Towards the end of the movie, M says something along the lines of, 'Well, if you had disclosed that Frost and Moon were on the fencing team at Harvard together, this all could have been avoided'. I seriously, seriously, seriously doubt that the U.S. government would/could have had any reason to prevent MI-6 from getting a roster of any university fencing club for one of their own agents. Just as a little test, I found out the current members of the Harvard fencing team in less than 2 minutes by hitting Harvard's athletics web page. MI-6 is in serious, serious trouble if they can't find a roster from, given the ages of Moon and Frost, at most 6 or 7 years ago.

 When Gustav Graves climbs out of his little ice-slidey-vehicle, he has the helmet in his hand when the glass lid is opened. His head was so close to the top of the glass that there is no room for him to remove the helmet before it is opened.

 At the end of the film as Bond and Jinx are in the helicopter after being dropped from the plane, as he is starting the engine, the caution/annunciator lights turn off 3 times in 3 different shots for no apparent reason whatsoever.

 The premise of the movie is that Gustav Graves is dealing in conflict diamonds, which are distinguishable from non-conflict diamonds by their chemical makeup. In reality, conflict diamonds are in no way chemically or visually different from any other diamonds.

 At the begining of the movie Bond place 2 pieces of C4 explosive in the case. This amount of explosive will be enough to level a small house, but Zao, who's standing about 2 metres from it, survives this with only a few scars.

 Right before Bond detonates the C-4 in the suitcase of dimonds, all the solders are scrambling to get the weapons out of the location and the firing squad is just about to fire at Bond. If you look real close there is someone still examining the dimonds with an eyepiece. Why take the time to examine the dimonds at this moment?

 Right after Bond and Jinx pack up the sniper gear to run after the plane, they use wire cutters to cut the fence. In a film filled with lasers, surely they could spare some to perform such a task, instead of resorting to wire cutters? Why doesn't he use his watch?

 At the end of the car-vs.-car deathmatch on the ice, why does the villian in the green Jaguar follow Bond into a melting Ice Palace? If the Ice Palace completely melts and Bond or his car doesn't come out, problem solved, if Bond/his car do come out, continue the chase then.

 Given that Graves is really Moon's son, he would have known who Bond was the moment he saw him at the fencing club. So why invite Bond to his Ice Palace and give him such a golden oppportunity to ruin his evil plans?

 At the very beginning of the big car chase, when bond gets in the Aston Martin. We see that the car is invisible when it's struck by a guy riding a skidoo. But when the Aston reappears visible, the rear of the car is completely undamaged.

 In the final fight scene on the plane between Jinx (Halle Berry) and Agent Frost (Rosamund Pike) Jinx is slashed across her stomach, drawing blood. In a later scene when Jinx and 007 are pouring diamonds over one another in the hut on the cliff her stomach is unblemished.

 The whole invisible car issue is just so wrong. He left his car parked outside the complex for ages, and no one walk or ski'd into it? Also when he is following the goons in the car, didn't they hear the engine or snow cracking under the tyres?

 In the pre title sequence James Bond travels in a hovercraft along the dirt road which is full of land mines. 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 in to 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.

 Bond opens up the necklace that Zao had and there are 4 diamonds inside. Later when he shows them to someone else it changes to 5. Where did that extra diamond come from?

 When Bond arrives in Cuba and walks past the children dancing in the foreground you can see a man leaning on a wall looking directly into the camera following it from left to right.
 

 Jinx Shoots the Doctor twice, once through the cheque, and once in the neck/throat. In the next scene, the two bullet holes are in his upper left chest. Plus when Bond finds him, there's no blood on the body.

 At the start, Bond puts some explosive underneath the easily removable compartment in the suitcase. When he lands, the case is handed to someone, who's told "check this". How badly do they search it not to immediately find the diamonds? Even if that person's job is just checking the diamonds, the security is so tight around that area it's inconceivable that they wouldn't check the case for bugs or something.

 In the opening sequence in North Korea. When James Bond detonates the C4 in the brief case carrying the diamonds, the diamonds fly into the air and some are embedded into Zao's face. When the C4 is detonated Zao has the back of his head facing the case with the diamonds in. When the case explodes Zao lands face down on the floor. How come he has diamonds embedded into his face - surely they should be in the back of his head?

 We see James turn his car invisible near the ice palace. When the villian with the diamonds in his face switches on the heat sensor thing in his car we see james bond's car glow red. Would that actually happen? Not likely, only the engine would show red along with james bond's body, not the whole car. Especially right after it was started after staying in the cold for a long time.

 In the beginning, James Bond steals a suitcase full of diamonds. He takes the compartment with the diamonds out, and sets a bomb under it. If the compartment he took out reached the bottom of the suitcase, how could he have fitted a bomb underneath it, especially with the detonator sticking up?
