    For me it's the scene from YOLT where Bird One just finishes taking off and Tiger and Kissy watch it as it's going up into the sky. Those flame effects are just the worst. Same with the ending Volcano shot.

    "I never miss..."
    "Time to face gravity!"

    That buzz saw copter never worked for me because, you know, surely Bond and the gal wouldn't be really trapped. Just nip into the houses and come out the back door or something. It's just a contrived stunt.

    That and the fact that the bike understandably didn't really jump over the copter in the earlier scene, as it had the blades superimposed on afterwards, and it's not a great action scene imo.

    That's a bit unfair to say. The bike still jumped over a helicopter, over a street, at a decent height. If that fact that the helicopter blades were superimposed ruins the scene for you, then I'm sorry. It's still a great action scene, with some great stunts - even the littlest thing of Michelle Yeoh really climbing round the front of the moving bike is impressive.
