Line 31:
* [[Creepy Centipedes]]: A poisonous centipede is used in an attempt to kill Bond in the novel. [[Did Not Do the Research|Never mind that their poison is almost harmless to humans.]]
* [[Cyanide Pill]]: A henchman uses a suicide cigarette.
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]
* [[Damsel in Distress]]: Honey Rider at the end of the movie.
** Subverted in the book - she was tied up with the threat of being eaten by a swarm of crabs. She knew the crabs were harmless, and let them swarm over her; her distressed attitude was over what would happen to Bond.
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]
* [[Decontamination Chamber]]: Used to cleanse Bond and Ursula of radiation. Ursula wears a [[Nude-Colored Clothes|flesh-colored towel]] in an [[Special Effects Failure|ineffectual attempt]] to convince the audience [[Fan Service|she is nude]].
* [[The Dragon]]: Professor Dent to Dr. No.
Line 79:
* [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?]]: Since it's Bond's first movie, the [[Leitmotif]] is used for everything, including arriving at the airport and driving by the coast.
** The making-of featurette on the DVD has a scene that adds extra explosions to Bond's signature line.

* [[What the Hell, Hero?]] A bit of irony: Bond does this with Honey when she describes how she murdered a man who raped her by putting a black widow spider in his bed, causing him to die over the course of a week. "I wouldn't make a habit of it" he says, shocked. But later, after Bond somewhat unnecessarily stabs one of Dr. No's men to death, Honey acts shocked and asks why he had to kill the man.
* [[Why We Can't Have Nice Things]]: Averted and lampshaded.
