The gunbarrel. It's

At the end of the film

If it's there, it's the classic walk from the right, turn, shoot, blood, wobble

I didn't vote for this one it just makes me laugh; If it's there, the "holder" of the gun fires first. Like Greedo.

The CGI bullet returns

 

... contain the following line(s)

The name's Bond. James Bond.
 Vodka Martini, shaken not stirred
 
Round up the usual suspects
Q only appears if the story justifies it, not because he has to because it's the law, somehow
Felix Leiter appears because the plot justifies it rather than just there to make Bond look better
 The couple at the Tube station reappear, as Craig's equivalent of the drunken tourist
Penelope Smallbone (Perhaps at the end of Naomi Harris's run) 
 
Bond's garb and appearance
Wears military uniform - his own

Gunbarrel: Not there, or if it is, it's an actual scene i.e. Bond is seen in a photographic studio, the gunman having him in his sights shoots first, Bond goes down, a pool of blood building around him. After which the titles play over the spreading blood on the floor, girls and guns and martinis watering down the blood. Titles end on a close-up of Bond's dilated pupils, into the dark, to a tiny but widening spot of light, where we learn how the story started. Discussion of said opening is going to be smashing good fun...

 

Dialogue: None of the staple diet of Bond dialogue. If absolutely necessary, make it 'Good Morning, Mr Bond. Did the earth move for you, too?', uttered by Leiter. When he and his CIA buddies dig out Bond from the scene of a major earthquake. 

 

Suspects: no preference other than whatever they do is justified by the story. Within that parameter they can do whatever they please to.

 

Garb and appearance: no watches, wears the whole film a weird fantasy uniform to infiltrate some pseudo-military militia outfit. Appears in the nude towards the climactic battle with the villain, set in a mostly dark slaughterhouse.

Gunbarrel at the start.

Shaken, not stirred, but have the bartender say it when he offers the drink.  Craig replies, "perfect" as he has so far.

Some gadget isn't perfected yet, so instead Bond returns the unused ones in 'perfect working order.'

Military naval uniform.  Connery and Moore did it.  Now it's Craig's turn.

Longer hair, no beards or facial hair.  Enough with the crew cuts.

 

"How very traditional."
