AVTAK- California Girls.
TLD- None really.
LTK- None really.

Actually, now that you mention it, Severine's death did piss me off. Along with many other poorly written scenes in Skyfall.

Like M rambling on about her late husband as if she's stalling for time, while ignoring the latest intel that Silva has escaped.

Fumbling around with the flashlight and easily being spotted by Silva.

Yup, I get pissed off just thinking about Skyfall. X-(

Jarvio · March 2014

DN- The fact that there was no PTS
FRWL- When Connery got the choice of the 2 gypsy women (lucky git)
GF- When Bond 'seduces' Pussy... Borderline rape

TB- Vargas in general - I just don't like him
YOLT- When Aki died
OHMSS- Bond screwing around on Tracy
DAF- Blofeld's clone, as it seemed a bit too far
LALD- Rosie in general!
TMWTGG- The slide whistle - This is the moment that pissed me off the most out of the ENTIRE series. Such a great stunt completely ruined
TSWLM- Liparus scenes dragging on for too long
MR- The love music when Jaws meets Dolly
FYEO- The fact that the PTS doesn't really flow with the rest of the film
OP- The Tarzan Yell
AVTAK- California Girls
TLD- Cello chase - absolutely stupid
LTK- "A hell of a chunk of doh"
GE- Alec surviving the fall
TND- The fact that Dr Kaufman is only in one scene
TWINE- Goldie
DAD- Matrixy slow-mo bits
CR- Bond's 'little finger' line
QOS- The scene where Bond confronts the algerian, as it is so vague
SF- Q's witty line followed by the sip of the cuppa - would have been ok but you could see the cup raised to his mouth the whole time, so you knew he was going to take a sip after his line!

I've never understood what people find so stupid about that being from the North-east as I am. We sometimes used loose pieces of cardboard to slide down snow covered hills for fun; a cello case would work SO much better...

Jarvio, I agree with you 100% on these! X-(

Dexter Smythe · March 2014

How about Tiffany Case in DAF watching Wint and Kidd attacking Bond on the cruise ship and all she can do is say "EEEEEK"?

Dexter Smythe · March 2014

BTW,I agree about the car jump in TMWTGG being ruined by the idiotic whistle.It makes one of the riskiest stunts ever performed in a Bond film seem whimsical and even more unbelievable.

Higgins · March 2014

I agree about the whistle -which always comes up on that kind of occasion.
I guess that noone is really surprised that I mention how angry I get when I see misty eyes every time that Dalton interacts with Kara X-(

besides this, Jarvio's list is pretty comprehensive - though I shorten it because I am not getting pi**ed on every Bond movie

Jaws falling in love.
Bonds blue toweling romper suit.
Slide whistle.
Double take pigeon.
Close encounters keypad.
Tarzan yell.
Sit!
Rolex? Omega Beautiful.
Silva. All that planning, but took a pistol. An assault rifle or combat shotgun would have seen his plan through..

Brosnan_fan · March 2014

DN - When The Three Blind Mice kill Strangways' secretary (Though I was more put-off than angry).

FRWL - When Bond discovers Kerim dead.

GF - Oddjob kills Tilly Masterson with his hat.

TB - The filmmakers refusing to show all of Molly Peters naked.

)

YOLT - None really.

OHMSS - Tracy's death, but I was more saddened than angry.

DAF - None, but only because I'd rather not spend the time and energy picking this one apart.

LALD - None.

TMWTGG - None.

TSWLM - None.

MR - Corinne's death, but again angry would be a strong word here.

FYEO - None.

OP - None; my favourite Bond film ever. -{

AVTAK - Am I allowed to say almost all of the entire film??

TLD - When Necros kills Saunders.

LTK - Hmmmm.... I could make a HUGE list, but definitely Della's murder.

GE - NONE!! A great, entertaining Bond film. -{

TND - Kaufmann kills Paris Carver.

TWINE - None.

DAD - Halle Berry, Halle Berry, Halle Berry, and the second half of the film.

CR - Haven't seen.

QOS - Hmmmm.... interesting. I can't seem to care for this one to think of any!

SF - None really.

I love the films too much, to try and keep finding faults with them.

Well, I'm not talking faults specifically. Quarrel's death is not a fault or mistake, but it just makes me angry when I see it.

Oh yeah. Okay, replace my first choice with this. Definitely.

Blackleiter · March 2014

These are the moments that angered me within the context of each movie, not moments that pissed me off because of mistakes or bad choices by the filmmakers:

DN - Quarrel's death
FRWL - When Bond discover's Karim Bey's body
GF - When Bond discovers Jill Masterson's gold-painted corpse
TB - When it is revealed that after being abducted by Largo, Bond's assistant Paula committed suicide
YOLT - When Aki is poisoned
OHMSS - When Tracey is machine-gunned
DAF - When Plenty O'Toole's body is discovered floating in the pool
LALD - When Bond and Solitaire are being dragged through the coral reef
TMWTGG - When Bond roughs up Andrea
TSWLM - When Stromberg casually kills two scientists seemingly to avoid having to pay them
MR - When Drax sics the dogs on Corinne
FYEO - When Bibi comes on to Bond
OP - When the security guards refuse to let Bond get through to defuse the bomb
AVTAK - When Tibbett is killed
TLD - When Necros attacks the safe house
LTK - The murder and implied rape of Della
GE - When it is revealed that Trevelyan betrayed Bond
TND - When Carver's henchmen work Bond over at Carver's gala party
TWINE - When Elektra is revealed as the real villain
DAD - M's distainful treatment of Bond when he is in the hospital recovering from 18 months of torture
CR - When LeChiffe tortures Bond
QOS - CIA agent Beam negotiating with Greene
SF - When Silva shoots Severine

As you can see, the killing of Bond's friends or allies, especially women, tends to piss me off the most.

Bodie · March 2014

TMWTGG - Goodnight/whoop music
TSWLM - Jaw's surviving
MR - more or less the entire movie

I always looked at that as M's way of getting her point across. She knew there was no escaping. She wanted these people to see the point she was making firsthand, and she was ready to give her life, hence staring into the eyes of Silva.

To get her point across, M felt it necessary to massacre a bunch of innocent people in the court room?

They should have evacuated and gone into full alert lockdown procedures. There was plenty of time to escape. That's probably the hardest part of Skyfall to watch because it drives me nuts. X-(

) over the years I've had an Epiphany over QOS, and ( since re-reading the books )
I actually quite like it now. You see I'm fickle.

AlphaOmegaSin · March 2014

DAF not referencing Tracy X-(

UltimateTruth · March 2014

Too obvious product placement....

The Chevys is LALD

(However, I like the AMXs in TMWTGG)

Brosnan chugging Smirnoff (I imagine Bond only drinking authentic RUSSIAN vodka)

The idea that the Brittish govt would issue German cars to MI6 agents( BMWs)

The Heineken Commercial ( AKA as the movie "Skyfall")

Yes, too obvious product placement adds a tacky element, but the one thing that pisses me off more than anything else....Something that arouses extreme anger in me because of its appearance in my favorite movie series.......

The opening song to QOS

First of all, Heineken is so rarely seen in SF that I really feel sorry for them if they really paid the rumored 50 Million.
Then the older I get the more I realize that without pp there is no big- budget movie (Bond or non-Bond) and if they are keeping it reasonably sensible ( like in SF) I can easily live with it.

Barbel · March 2014

You're so right, Mr Bond.

Higgins · March 2014

You mean - as always?

Barbel · March 2014

In this case, for sure!

However, I was actually agreeing with Ultimate Truth's dissing of the QoS song. You got in before me!

UltimateTruth · March 2014

I said TOO obvious

product placement might be necessary, but it can be overused.......

In the LALD scene where the pimpmobile driver kills Bond's driver, every car on the road is the same damn Chevy

(DAF's Fords are less obvious)

MR has 7up !!!

Your biggest 'that pissed me off' moment in each movie?
