    Spy gone? Ludicrous.

    Not ludicrous at all imho! I started voting against it from the begining. Not because i hate it or that its the weakest of the lot, but mainly because every time there is a poll, on t.v., radio, internet, magazine, etc., immediately TSWLM tops it. And it all comes down to the finale, an admittedly magnificent stunt scene, and if this thread was asking what was the best stunt sequence in the series i would be first to vote it number 1. But best pre-credits sequence? No, it's simply not! And is still too high where it is, imho!

    The Parachute jump is iconic and the entry is one of my favourites but the rest of the PTS is not that great. Both of Dalton's are better. If it wasn't for that union jack opening out it would be pretty generic.

    But it did open a Union Flag parachute as it went.

    Absolutely, although I'd have voted SF into the top 3 instead of CR :)

    And three in the top six. PTSs have definitely been a strength of DC's films.

    I don't mind the SP PTS, but I have it ranked at 21.

    I think as a whole it is the best PTS in the series. Great stuff from start to finish. Got me very excited for the rest of the film. I can't see why so many hate the helicopter fight. Tense, brutal, genuinely thrilling. But to each their own.
