Hmm and what kind of nub would use a slow firing and moving weapons pod when a missiles or even rockets would have worked better. :p

But seriously it was nicely done.

And why doesn't the helicopter have those lasers? If someone would've just put a chin turret on the thing it would've been over in 5 seconds.

That motorcycle doesn't behave at all like a real one.

It's very well done, but I did notice this mistake. She constantly has her hand off of the right handlebar where I'm pretty sure the gas is on all motorcycles, yet you still hear the bike accelerating.

The character also evidently has some kind of embedded electronics or nanotechnology that can enable control of other devices.

They get it right at first (decelerating) but you do hear it at the end of the tunnel and then as she's going for the jump with the sword.

But they get the lean/turn wrong -- they seem to treat a bike turning as a direct function of its lean. Also, she has absolutely perfect traction as she crosses over dirt and through water -- those surfaces would hold neither the cornering loads shown nor just the power delivery of that bike. That rear should be kicking out under acceleration and the bike should dump in the corners.

Those pod things that were chasing him are exactly like these little exo-atmospheric anti-nuclear warhead things (or was it anti-satellite?) that are being developed. I forgot what they were called and now I can't find them. Anyone know what I am talking about?
