Much better than the horrid "here's your new watch. I believe this will be your 20th" from DAD. Shudder
SF: Q tells Bond to put his back into it as Bond tries to open the door in the tube
DAF: Bond stands on top of the lift to get to the top of the White house
SF: Bond hangs from the bottom of the lift to get to the top of the building to dispatch Patrice.
It put me more in mind of the steam room scene with Pat in TB.
I really like your theory :)
I,m with you on that. Pretty neat reference as well.
Also, the villian being an ex agent could be a GE reference. Silva talking about taking is cyanide when he was captured, DAD? (Brosnan talks about throwing his away years ago).
And people said there wouldn't be any references in SF.
I hate to say I told you so but.... :P
Silva's Foulmouth'ed presence when he takes out his teeth?..is that of Jaw's?..
and so many other references hidden, as being the dedications they are..!
as the Dedication it is..all when perhaps The Sky Is falling In on You..!
But tbh, most of these aren't really references, we'll find "references" anywhere if we look for them.
At around 22:45 into this very interesting interview, Mendes is asked if the scorpion is a nod to Diamonds Are Forever. He doesn't even know there's a scorpion in Diamonds Are Forever!
So, revising that unreasonably big list of references, the only things that should be in it are:
<ul>
<li>"For her eyes only."</li>
<li>"You must be joking."</li>
<li>"What did you expect, an exploding pen? We don't do that kind of things any more."</li>
<li>The DB5 with the licence plate and all the gadgets from Goldfinger, and the dialogue between Bond and M inside the car.</li>
</ul>
I'm not sure if "Don't touch your ear" counts as a reference. It's just something Bond says because the last time someone did it he got in terrible trouble.
I may be forgetting a couple references right now, but that's the main ones.
