I was wondering how Bond was able to follow Dimitrios to the airport. Anyone else curious about this? We see Bond with Solange one minute and he finds out he is on the last plane to Miami then the next thing we see is Bond in his Aston followed by Bond in a taxi following Dimitrios. OK, but how was Bond able to figure out which car Dimitrios was in to get on his trail? And what's with the Body World thingy? Is that exhibit part of the airport or something else? It all happened so quickly I'm a little confused about this section of the movie.
Thanks!
possible Bond/Dimitrios plot hole?

Oh, we wouldn't want that...I'm a little confused...
Not a real plothole there. The only thing is: if Dimitrios was on the last plane to Miami, ond surely had a bit of trouble getting on the same plane and not being spotted by Dimitrios. The rest is simply a matter of good tailing.

Bond must have catched the same plane. He did only order champagne and beluga caviar for one.
I loved Craig's acting, when he find out the girl is dead. Best bond since Connery, period.

OK, thanks guys! That was the only thing that threw me off about the plot of the film. Everything else I'm pretty cool with. Man, it feels so amazing to have such a great Bond film out in theatres right now! I've already seen it 4 times! Does that mean I need help?

No it means you need to see it again.

It's obvious that Bond caught the same plane for Miami. He knew that it would be the last flight out.

Indeed.
I suspect there may have been a shot or two cut - showing Bond on the same plane, etc. (Remember he jumps into the Aston when leaving Solange, but when he gets to the Body Worlds exhibition he's in a cab.)
So many cuts seem to have been made to tighten the film. I don't disapprove at all - but it'd be nice to see the deleted scenes, or an alternate extended cut, on the DVD.
That said, Bond's DVD deleted scenes are pretty messed up. Even the few we get are incomplete. (Where's the helecopter loop-the-loop from GE? Or all TND's Stamper stuff? Or, well, everything from DAD?) I hope and dream for CR to get the proper treatment...but the realist in me thinks it's unlikely.
