In scene in which 007 is interrogated by Mr. Big, Bond is seated in his chair with two metal cuffs snap down on his wrists. However, the left cuff has failed to connect to the other side of the chair, as would be necessary to constrain Bond's left arm.

After Whisper shoots
Bond's driver with the side-view mirror dart, Bond takes the wheel

In the U.N., Kananga's goons assassinate a delegate by sabotaging his translator. However, it is impossible to die from loud noise alone. The very worst thing that could possibly happen is the man would suffer deafness or severe hearing damage, and these are not life-threatening conditions.
Sheriff Pepper commandeers a Louisiana State Patrol Chevrolet Impala with old-style cylindrical roof lights, at the scene where his own car is destroyed by a boat. But when he arrives at the State Police road-block, he and the Troopers who drive him arrive in an Impala with more contemporary roof-lights. One of the other cars already at the road-block when they arrive appears to be the car they supposedly used to drive to the roadblock.
Bond claims the magnetic watch will "deflect bullets," though bullets are generally copper over lead, and thus nonmagnetic. It's doubtful that any magnetic field would deflect a steel jacketed or steel cored armor piercing military bullet.

After Bond burns the snake with the cigar and aftershave, he puts the cigar down and coolly applies the aftershave. Then he hears a noise, and leaves the bathroom without picking up the cigar. Shortly after, the cigar is in his hand again and he uses it to he burn the mystery hand with the gun.
Bond is en route to New York (from Idlewild Airport) and his driver is killed the car swerves into the left lane. The next shot shows Bond telling the driver to "take it easy", but the scenery behind Bond (through back window of the car) still shows them as being in the center lane.
During the boat chase, a shot of James' second boat (gold, inboard motor) is mixed in with the first boat (orange, outboard motor).

The man's shoulder is already covered in Blood before Bond shoots him, and also, the second shot Bond fires appears to not hit the man, yet the man goes flying backwards as if he is shot.
While Bond is in the taxi cab, asking the driver to go uptown (into Harlem), we see a hill through the rear window. In the next shot, the land is flat.
