Bond falling onto an armchair after falling from collapsing buildings in Mexico City. Especially the look on his face as it occurs, which just screams that he's thinking "what the hell just happened?" And the way he flings away the wall sconce he was hanging onto.
Franz Oberhauser dramatically proclaims himself to be Ernst Stavro Blofeld. Bond doesn't even blink as he snarks "Catchy name."
Out of all the possible ways he could have phrased his question, M chose to ask Bond why he was "pottering" around in Mexico.
Q gives many Adorkable moments, much more so than in Skyfall: cracking up at his own joke about Bond bringing the Aston Martin back "in one piece instead of bringing back one piece," reminding 007 that it's better he's not fired as he's got "a mortgage and two cats to feed" (with Bond replying Q'd better help him "for the sake of the cats"), saying "Oh, shit!" once he sees a champagne bottle instead of the Weaponized Car that he was supposed to give to 009, and replying to an angry M regarding 007's whereabouts (tracking device shows Austria, Q says "He's currently in Chelsea...").
There's also this conversation between Q and Bond. Q then proves he's not quite the experienced, snarky professional his predecessors were by snickering at his own jab.
Q:[preparing to inject Bond] Now, you may feel a small... [pushes the needle in] Bond: Christ! Q: ...prick.
And when Q shows Bond his previous Aston Martin mid-repairs:
Q: There wasn't much left to work with, hardly more than a steering wheel. I believe I said "bring it back in one piece," not "bring back one piece."
For long-time fans of the franchise, it's funny how Q's body language when Bond comes across the Aston Martin is highly similar to Desmond Llewelyn's version of the character.
Similarly, Bond being Wrong Genre Savvy about getting cool new toys from Q. Double Subverted when it turns out he's right.
Q:[after telling 007 that the new Aston Martin DB10 had been reassigned from him to 009] But you can have this [watch]! Bond: Does it... DO anything? Q: It tells the time. Might help you with your punctuality issues. (And it also explodes, but that's not important right now)
A somewhat dark example at Sciarra's funeral when Bond taunts the assassins stalking Lucia by cheerfully waving at them.
How Bond introduces himself to the guard outside the Spectre meeting? "Io sono Topolino." Italian speakers will get the joke right away. For those who don't speak Italian, the payoff isn't until Blofeld outs Bond, the same guard is the one who comes to remove Bond, and addresses him by the English translation of the name he gave when he entered the meeting: "Ciao, Mickey Mouse!"
The additional extras of the prototype Aston Martin DB10 are announced with Dymo tape function labels instead of integrated into the upholstery. And only two of them work as they're described, which is rather inconvenient in the middle of a chase.
During the chase, Bond finds himself behind a slow driving Fiat 500. His eventual solution is just accelerate until the small car is out of the way (to the shock/annoyance of the Innocent Bystander). It amazingly doesn't crash, but the impact is enough to release the airbag!
The "atmosphere" button reveals that 009 is apparently a big fan of "New York, New York" to which Bond roars "NO!"
It gets funnier if you envision this as the movie telling you that Bond plays his own atmosphere music during car chases.
In the midst of the chase, Bond takes the time to express some jealousy/disapproval of the fact that Moneypenny has a gentleman caller:
[having just heard a man's voice in the background] Bond: Who was that? Moneypenny: No one. Bond: No, it wasn't. Moneypenny: It's just a friend. Bond: At this time of night? Moneypenny: It's called a life. You should try it sometime.
And given the car ends up dropped into a river, Bond and Q have a priceless exchange: "I parked it at the bottom of the Tiber." "Oh, it was nothing. Just a 3 million pound prototype...."
When being interviewed as a potential patient by Madeleine, Bond is giving Deadpan Snarker blunt answers to each question. A standout:
Madeleine: How much alcohol do you drink? Bond: Too much.
Bond tells the barman at the clinic that he can "cut out the middleman" and put a green health drink straight down the toilet.
The lead into the above: he sits down at the bar and orders his classic, vodka Martini shaken not stirred. The barman tells him that as he's in a health clinic, they don't serve alcohol. The look of confusion and disdain on Bond's face is classic.
Bond: I'm really starting to love this place.
Even funnier when you consider this is the first time we've heard Daniel Craig's Bond order his classic Martini onscreen.
Bond telling the guard at the clinic to stay put after effortlessly beating him and his colleague in a second, with the guard obeying. Even better is he states it like the command one might give to an unruly pet. "No! Stay."
The guards reaction to this is hilarious as well. He raises his hands and takes a step back, as if to say "Okay, jeez." You can actually hear him say "Oh, okay." in a meek and intimidated voice.
Q analyzing the ring on his computer while on a gondola car with a bunch of goons clearly watching him. And using the distraction of a bunch of snowboarders piling into the cabin at the other end to make his escape.
A bored and drunken Bond idly attempts to interrogate an adorable little mouse at gunpoint.
Trying to teach Madeleine how to shoot a gun in order to protect herself, Bond can't help but have brief memories of when Eve shot him accidentally.
Then there's his face going full blue screen when Madeleine effortlessly disarms the gun, showing that she needs no coaching in this department.
Bond: I think we'll skip hand-to-hand combat.
The fact that Madeleine has better trigger discipline than James here. He was doing it with a round chambered.
Hinx uttering his only word in the film as he's about to be pulled off a moving train. His only word? "Shit."
Halfway through the train fight scene, Bond finds out that he really cannot defeat Mr. Hinx. His genuinely terrified face is a joy to behold.
There's also a moment where he randomly throws a bowl at him, clearly desperate and out of ideas. It misses by a mile.
After Hinx gets yanked off the train, Madeleine asks Bond, "What do we do now?" Cut to both of them having Glad-to-Be-Alive Sex.
After being led into the meteorite observatory in Spectre's Morocco facility, Bond and Madeleine stare at it for a moment before Oberhauser shows up. After a pause, Bond speculates, "I think we're supposed to be impressed."
"And now we know what 'C' stands for." Said by M to Denbigh (i.e., C) when Denbigh claims M stands for 'Moron' as C holds M at gunpoint, his gun utterly out of bullets, in a nod to Casino Royale.note M clarifies for the censors that he meant "careless."
After Blofeld explains the Sadistic Choice to James in the climax, Bond accuses him of bluffing. Blofeld sternly warns, "Am I?" and then glowers at Bond for a few seconds before breaking down giggling and stating "I've really put you through it, haven't I?" It's so jarring a break, it becomes funny.
