Goldfinger (1964)

Corrected entry: After Goldfinger has lost the card game, Bond is looking at his face in the binocular. We see Goldfingers' hands when he snaps the pencil. How did Bond know to turn the binocular from Goldfinger's face to his hands in that exact second?

Jacob La Cour

Correction: Artistic licence, not a mistake.

Goldfinger (1964)

Corrected entry: Bond's car has bullet proof windows, yet when he tries to escape from Oddjob and Goldfinger's men (after overhearing "Operation Grand Slam") the front windscreen not only has bullet marks but holes where it looks as if the bullets have gone through the glass. One of these lines up with Bond's forehead and a few of the other look as if they should have caused him some serious harm-but didn't.

Correction: Despite what the Bond movies would have us believe, no glass is fully bulletproof so the bad guys presumably had sufficient firepower. We can only assume that Bond's forehead was not in line with the bullet-hole when it was created. Hardly a mistake for him to try to avoid oncoming bullets.
