It doesn't end well for him when Bond blows the C4 hidden among the diamonds.

* BatmanColdOpen: {{Subverted}} heavily. The film with Bond on a mission in North Korea... which he actually ''fails''. He ends up getting captured and spends a year and a half in a torture camp before his superiors can spring him.



* {{Bizarrchitecture}}: The ice palace is made of... ice. Handwaved because it's set in Iceland; it would be cold enough for that to work at least some of the time. Graves melts it to drown Jinx inside. AluminumChristmasTrees: Those kind of buildings [[http://www.icehotel.com/ actually exist.]] However, Iceland is actually not cold enough for such a building to exist for more than a couple of weeks. The winter weather is very erratic and fluctuating, with frequent freeze-thaw-cycles that would ruin an ice building very quickly. Northern Scandinavia is much more amenable to ice buildings, because there they actually have a stable, cold winter climate.



* BondGunBarrel: When Brosnan fires the gun, the bullet flies at the camera, meaning that Bond has shot up the gun barrel of his opponent.



* TheCameo: Music/{{Madonna}} cameos as Verity, Miranda Frost and Gustav Graves's fencing instructor. Thus far she's the only theme song singer to make an appearance in the film, unless you count Sheena Easton singing the ''Film/ForYourEyesOnly'' theme onscreen in said film's opening.

to:

* BriefcaseFullOfMoney: Subverted when Bond adds a C4 charge into the lining of a briefcase full of diamonds which then end up buried in Zao's face when Bond sets it off.
* BrokenAce: Gustav Graves is charming, talented, and insanely rich (from blood diamonds). However, he is really a North Korean with plastic surgery building a KillSat to help his faction finally win the war. He has daddy issues too, and really really hates anything Western. He admits to having based the Graves persona partly on Bond.

* CannotDream: Gustav Graves was said to be unable to dream. Specifically, he is unable to enter REM sleep, a RealLife condition. He has to use a machine to do it for him, or he'll start suffering from severe psychosis. Well, more severe than his current mental condition.
* CarFu: Bond and Zao have a Car Fu Duel, where BOTH characters are driving tricked-out spy cars and trying to kill each other with their various on-board weapons and gadgets. This scene ends with a (failed) ramming attempt.
* ChameleonCamouflage: Bond's car can do this by projecting the image on one side of the car from the other, presumably adjusting for any distance difference.



* ColdBloodedTorture: Suggested that Bond endured one of these in the very trippy opening sequence. His examination post-release supports this; scorpion poison was involved.

to:

* ColdBloodedTorture: Suggested In the opening sequence, we see Bond repeatedly getting his head shoved into a bucket of ice water, stung with scorpions, and beaten, all for the guards' amusement. When the sequence concludes and the movie begins, the caption tells us that Bond has endured one of these in the very trippy opening sequence. His examination post-release supports this; scorpion this treatment for over a year. Once rescued, we overhear someone talking about what else James went through: he'd be injected with poison was involved.and then his torturers would watch the poison take affect for some indeterminate amount of time before injecting the antidote. Multiple times.
* ColdNameMole: Miranda Frost betrays James Bond and MI6 after Graves bought her out with an Olympic gold medal.



* ConspicuousCG: There's more of this here than perhaps in any other Bond entry. Particularly jarring examples of this include the firing of the Icarus laser upon the Ice Palace, the final confrontation on Graves' plane, the invisibility feature of Bond's Aston Martin, and the infamous wave-surfing scene as Bond tries to outrun a massive wave (the fact that live surfing was utilized in the film's opening scene without the use of any CG makes this even worse for some).
* ContinuityCavalcade: Bond visits the new Q's secret lab and discovers many of the old Q's inventions from the previous films.

* ActorAllusion
** As Q walks around the back of Bond's new [[CoolCar invisible Aston Martin]], the distortion effect makes him appear to do a very [[Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus silly walk]].
** In the training sim, Bond refers to the virtual M's seemingly fatal wounding as [[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail "just a flesh wound"]] to [[Creator/JohnCleese Q]].
** Bond's heavy beard echoes Creator/PierceBrosnan's TV-movie adaptation of ''Literature/RobinsonCrusoe''.



**The novelisation explains this a little, stating the winner died the night of her victory.



* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: Played with; Bond is filthy with a shaggy beard and hair after being tortured for 14 months. This is the character at his most unkempt in the entire ''series'', and audiences at the time were a bit shocked to see him in such a disheveled state. However, Bond is still in remarkably good shape for someone who had endured that type of hell for so long. All it takes are a single shave, a hair cut, a proper dinner, and a change of clothes for him to become sexy again.

Earlier in the film, Bond gets out a BulletProofVest and Colonel Moon keeps shooting it until it falls off into the ground.
