10 - The Spy Who Loved Me
10 - The Spy Who Loved Me
The ruins where Jaws fights Bond and Anya Amasova are actually from two different locations, on opposite sides of the
Nile.
When Jaws is trying to destroy Bond and Amasova's truck you never see any great damage done to the wheels. But later
on in the desert scene, when the truck breaks down, the truck has MAJOR tire and wheel problems. I know this was for a
laugh, but come on!
Lotus in water
When Bond's Lotus dives into the water, it has a regular car bottom. But once in the water, the
complete bottom of the car has a white shell to cover the undercarriage. The same for the blinds over
all of the windows. These appear and disappear when the car goes from land to water and then up on
land again.
The sub-Lotus shoots a missile at the helicopter overhead. The missile goes through the rear
windshield, that doesn't open. If you look at the scene in slow-motion you can see a big hole in the
windshield, that has been pre-cut, but the hole disappears later on.
In the scene where Bond and Anya are in the car-sub, a mini-sub fires an underwater missile at them
and it explodes directly below them. This only shakes the car around, but when we see Bond and
Anya inside again, the explosion has apparently created a leak in the roof of the car. How could an
explosion below them create a leak in the top of the car?
