The Mistakes of Casino Royale
Filed under: Action, Tech Stuff, James Bond, Remakes and Sequels
Just when you thought the entire Bond hub-ub had finally ended! The poor film has been through a lot, what with Daniel Craig complaints, speculation, and finally unabashed praise. Perhaps the filmmakers were too distracted by the uproar that Craig's casting created to notice the flubs throughout the film. Starpulse has reported that Casino Royale is already in the Top-20 of mistake-filled films on MovieMistakes.com.
This is notable on its own since flubs are usually caught on DVD. The more you view, the more you catch, and with pausing, zooming and the like, it's hard for someone to not find a flub. However, Royale just hit theatres, and the mistakes are already pouring in. Unfortunately, this isn't just a case of an errant shadow or other hard-to-notice blunders. The Bond film has managed to rack up both small and large slips.
Some people will note that there are errant signs and icons in Czech, as the movie was filmed in the

When Bond and his girl are kissing in the sand towards the end, he has sand all over his back in one scene and then when they start kissing he is perfectly clean.

The password Bond types in before the poker game does not match what he claims the password is later on in the movie. He hits a 5 before the game, and there are no corresponding letters in the actual password.
But who's counting? Daniel Craig did just fine, and I didn't really care to notice anything else.

in a scene where bond retreats to his aston martin (i think its an aston martin anyway) he gets in and leaves the door open while checking some stuff out. then in the next very next shot he is still checking stuff out but the door is closed.

A Bond movie would not be a Bond movies if it didn't have any big obvious flubs in my opinion. Thats what Bond movies are all about for me!

I know this is old news now, but I wanted to let you know that whoever wrote the article has no idea what they are talking about (not this one, but the original article) I went into the movie with the intention of scrutinizing the poker scenes and everything checked out just fine. I dont know if the author of the article doesnt realize that the guy before bond was the dealer, therefore bond is first to act. The guy with the cards in a casino is not the "dealer" in texas hold em, he just deals the cards, but the dealer button was clearly in front of the guy to bonds right. So there was no mistake in the poker anywhere in the movie.
