    I havent noticed that before..i will next time now...
    It's really quick. Right after he jumps and the camera follows him up close for a few seconds, it pans out quickly and you get a split-second to catch them., but they're there.

    Another bad thing, the dam looks nothing like the snow we're presented with at the end of the PTS.

    Talk about location change.

    Oh, yeah. I've spent God knows how long trying to figure out how they get to the bottom of the plant when the top shows no signs of a plant being way down there. Huge location change, always bugs me. Still, I'm guessing it has something to do with them not finding a suitable location for the plant's exterior itself, because the outside shots of Bond on the motorcycle are a painting or something, with Bond riding just pasted in there.

    Bond and Trevelyan could have crawled some way through that vent. Additionally, when Bond went on the conveyor belt that probably took him a bit further up the mountain

    That's how I explain it in my head ;)

    I really try to imagine that somehow, Bond got back up. We cut from the travelator to the surface. Who knows what happened in between both scenes? :)

    I mean, when he jumps, it's just one big rocky canyon. Maybe (like @BAIN123 stated) he does go way, way down, and below said canyon is the rock wall we see behind the power plant when Bond exits it and goes on the run. Could be! Good ideas with that, @BAIN.

    The murders of both Dr. Kauffman and Elektra King were the top 2 ruthless moments for Brosnan, easily. Other big ones would be holding Renard at gunpoint in an attempted assassination, almost letting Natalya die at the hands of General Ourumov (he had a plan, I know, but it was still pretty ruthless), shooting the chandelier down on Zao's head, and killing Davidov.

    another ruthless moment that is being serverely overlooked is when in Goldeneye- Bond and Nataylia escape the archives when he beats Ourumov's face into the door and gunned down all the russians....

    Some would argue that any James Bond who makes their grand 007 entrance hanging upside down in a toilet block while someone's taking care of their business can't be taken too seriously. The 'forgot to knock' does sound a bit silly sometimes too

    I liked that bit in Goldeneye when he's on the Manticore before finding Farrell's body and some kid rushes in, and Brosnan wraps a towel round his head and throws him down some stairs. Not really 'ruthless', but worth a mention I thought

    The slaying of King will always be his most ruthless Bond moment for me

    'You wouldn't kill me, you'd miss me' etc, It came as a bit of a shock when I first saw it in theaters

    Oh man, I can't believe I forgot that! I've always cringed in pain at that part as if it were happening to me!

    Proper ranking, @Goldeneye95! Kauffman's is definitely most cold-blooded, since he really was completely defenseless and had know reason to be killed at the moment. At least Elektra had a nuclear submarine crisis at her control and Alec a meltdown of London at his when Bond killed them.

    So, you're not a human with feelings or such... in a sit with a killer with no chance of being properly tried, with a licence to kill, you feel that it was 'cold-blooded'? Bollocks.

    Bond could have knocked him out cold and left him there to be framed for the murder of Paris, but made a different call. I'm not upset about it, in fact I like the fact that they showed Bond's cold side. I'm just stating obvious fact that it was cold-blooded, since there was an alternative.

    Cold-blooded? Maybe not. Cold-blooded would imply Kaufman didn't deserve it, and he did kill Paris so he definitely deserved it. But it was definitely ruthless and without any mercy.
