Facts and Bloopers:
The Acrostar pre-credits scene from Octopussy was envisioned initially for Moonraker, as Bond and Holly would pilot Acrostars above a South American river. However, before filming, the river bed dried up.
As Bond, attired in a white tuxedo, enters the casino a boom microphone erroneously appears at the top of the frame.
The Faberge egg smashed to expose a listening device is explained as being a replica. In actuality, Bond had planted the device in the real Faberge egg, which they have now destroyed.
