However, it appears in one of the trailers.
The helicopter loop had previously been filmed for “GoldenEye” but was cut from the final film. The white Dinner jacket with red carnation is from “Goldfinger”. The death of Hinx is not shown, similar to “Jaws” in “The Spy Who Loved Me” who later returned in “Moonraker”. Bond chains Hinx to barrels, like in “A View To A Kill” with the soldier on the snowmobile. Bond lands on a couch, he also does so in “You Only Live Twice”. The pre-title sequence of “For Your Eyes Only” also included helicopter stunts. Bond talks to a mouse, in “Diamonds Are Forever” he talks to a rat. The hotel room in Mexico is #327, same number as in the hotel in “Quantum of Solace”. Bond shoots at a large window like in “Licence To Kill”. The closure of the 00 section has been a topic in the Bond novels by John Gardner. Hotel and lift in the Mexico sequence are the same as in “Licence To Kill”. The Day of the Dead Parade reminds of the Junkanoo in “Thunderball” and the carnival in “Moonraker”. The main title sequence features imagery from past Bond films, so does the main title of “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service”. It’s not the first time for Bond’s Aston Martin to be in a chase with a Jaguar, the combination also occured in “Die Another Day” with the Aston Martin Vanquish and the Jaguar XKR. The Hoffler Klinik is reminiscent of Piz Gloria in “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service” which also served as a clinic. Bond is unimpressed by Blofeld’s meteor, just as unimpressed as in “Dr. Blofeld’s scar is almost identical to the one seen in “You Only Live Twice”. The Aston Martin DB10 features an ejector seat, just like the DB5 in “Goldfinger”. The SPECTRE meeting room is reminiscent of that in “Thunderball”. Q helps Bond while on an unsanctioned mission, this previously happened in “Licence To Kill”. The Rolls Royce Silver Wraith seen in Morocco is the same model used by Kerim Bey in “From Russia With Love” and by Kristatos in “For Your Eyes Only”.
Bond’s home is shown, like in “Live and Let Die” where Moneypenny was also present.A skeleton costume has previously been seen on Baron Samedi in “Live and Let Die”.Bond and Tanner in a boat going to see Q, reminiscent of “From Russia With Love” where Bond and Kerim Bey spy on the Russian embassy in Istanbul.The OMEGA watch worn by Bond has a NATO strap, so did Bond’s Rolex in “Goldfinger”.M’s office has almost the same design as offices from the films before 1995, the fireplace is identical.Blofeld sets the timer to 3 minutes, just like Alec Trevelyan did in “GoldenEye”.MI6 Safehouse is named “Hildebrand” which comes from a short story by Ian Fleming entitled “The Hildebrand Rarity”.It’s almost impossible to spot all of them after seeing the film once, so here’s a list highlighting some:
The new Bond film SPECTRE surprises with the inclusion of many classic elements, but also references to older Bond films and novels.
