Visible crew/equipment: For a moment during the Bond/Graves sword fight (after Graves shatters the glass case, nearly impaling Bond), we get a brief glimpse of the stunt doubles for both actors. (00:55:35)
Visible crew/equipment: When Gustav is interviewed by a lot of journalists watch the window on the car and you'll notice a round screen used for lighting. In the opposite shots none of the press members holds one.
Continuity mistake: When Jinx and Bond sneak onto Graves' 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 gunmetal black. (01:52:20)
James Bond: You know, you're cleverer than you look.
Q: Still, better than looking cleverer than you are.
Trivia: The name of the hotel that Bond visits in Hong Kong is The Rubyeon Royale Hotel. "Ruby" for the 40th anniversary of the James Bond series, "Eon" for EON Productions, producers of the series, and "Royale" for Casino Royale, the first Ian Fleming James Bond novel.
Question: In "The World Is Not Enough" Bond, using his intuition, correctly assessed that Elektra King had sided with the villain. So why did he never suspect for a second that Miranda Frost had done the same in this film?

Answer: Bond's suspicions about Elektra King were triggered by his discovery that her head of security, Davidov, was working with Renard. With Miranda Frost, there was nothing that would have led Bond to believe she was a double agent working for Graves/Moon in any capacity other than her undercover MI6 assignment.
