I\'m just rearranging the entries in something that resembles chronological order.


* The car that can be remotely driven is comedy throughout.
** "Warning. Unsafe driving will void warranty."
** The look of unabashed glee on Bond's face as his BMW flies through the air and crash-lands into an Avis office, the same company he supposedly rented it from.
*** "Congratulations on [[BlatantLies a safe journey]]!"
*** There's a deleted scene where a group of rubberneckers have crowded around the crashed car. Bond walks through them and takes the keys from the wrecked car's ignition.
** When various henchmen try to break into Bond's car and get electrocuted and have sledgehammers bounce off.
** And then when Dr. Kaufman is ordered to torture Bond into saying how to open the car, literally immediately after he's spelt out how he's going to kill Bond to make it look like a murder-suicide.
--->'''Dr. Kaufmann''': This is very embarrassing. It seems there is a red box they need in your car, only they can't get it open. They want me to get you to tell how to open it. I feel like an idiot, I don't know what to say.
* "I thought you'd pay more attention to a female voice." "I think we've met!"
** When the car stops in front of Q and Bond, its engine almost makes a satisfied purring sound! Clearly Bond's sex appeal isn't limited to human females as the car does indeed [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything respond positively to his touch]].
** Also in that [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_eEt51wWhNY scene]] is Q giving Bond ''literal'' HeroInsurance for his car.
-->'''Q''': Will you need collision coverage?
-->'''Bond''': Yes.
-->'''Q''': Fire?
-->'''Bond''': Probably.
-->'''Q''': Property destruction?
-->'''Bond''': Definitely.
-->'''Q''': Personal injury?
-->'''Bond''': I hope not, but accidents do happen.
-->'''Q''': They frequently do with you!
* Carver making fun of Wai Lin's martial-arts skills with some FunnyBruceLeeNoises, even getting a fairly decent high-kick in. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwNej77PVLI Just watch.]]
* The expression on Bond's face when he's being chased by SMG-toting guards, and he sees Wai Lin waving at him as he draws off the men who'd normally be chasing after her.



* Bond and Wai Lin squabbling over who gets to drive the motorcycle as they're escaping from Carver's mooks. For the "suave" Bond, Creator/PierceBrosnan really know how to do hilariously bitchy arguing well.
* Carver finds out that Stamper has (yet again) failed to kill Bond.
-->'''Carver''': So much for [[GermanicEfficiency German efficiency]].
* Moneypenny has been on the phone to Bond, while Bond is in the middle of having sex. She gets him to acknowledge that the situation is urgent enough to justify speedy sex, if not to abort it entirely, then hangs up, turns around and sees M standing there.
-->'''Moneypenny:''' Don't ask.
-->'''M:''' Don't tell.
* Stamper speaking glowingly about Dr. Kaufman and his work with the worst kind of torture imaginable. Just the way he talks about him as though he were a great humanitarian is hilarious.
* Bond punches a henchman off a catwalk, and he falls into a printing press. "[[BondOneLiner They'll print anything these days]]."

* Bond's suggestion that he write to the British and Chinese governments informing them of Carver's plans wins him an amused grin from Wai Lin when he sees that the computer terminal in the hidden armory is all in Chinese characters; he lets her do the typing.
