100% Spoiler Alert - Still worth watching

Rating: 10/10 (19 June 2017)

So it is a throwback to a lot of other Bond movies - draws in a number of subtle threads from the original books and has an utterly unmemorable Bond Theme.
Opening - Mexico Day of the Dead sequence - AWESOME All my friends couldn't believe the helicopter was really being looped and rolled for the camera (it was) Slow scene setting thereafter Picks up well from the middle with a nice denouement at the end.
So how many throwbacks did YOU spot? My list so far: Accidentally demolishing the building as Bond shoots the bad guy in in Mexico - the staggered building collapse in Venice in Casino Royale The clinic on the mountain top - Piz Gloria from On Her Majesty's Secret Service Flying the Britten Norman Islander (BNI) down the firebreaks while chasing the bad guys in the car (a fabulous bit of flying I might add) - The bob sled chase from On Her Majesty's Secret Service.
The fight on the train in North Africa - The fight on the train From Russia With Love BNI bursts through the haybarn - Car bursts through a haybarn in ?????? (It was such a re-use and SO obvious - but I don't remember which movie it was originally in) Bond and the girl being welcomed at the crater and given rooms and clothing to wear - same scene from Dr No.
Blowing up the crater - blowing up the crater from You Only Live Twice Car Chase in Rome - any number of Bond car chases. (They REALLY wrote off 10 Aston Martin's filming the sequence? - I believe it - those wet cobbles looked lethal).
Car chase in Rome - machine guns, bullet proof car etc - The original Aston Martin in Goldfinger Bond punching out of the Aston Martin - I suppose a slight nod to the ejection seat on Goldfinger.
anyone else?.......
