A personal pet-peeve of mine is "movies that feature an airplane flying away and turning left off into the sunset..."

ThEy NeVeR AniMaTe The FlAps!!

It's like you'd have an animated motorcycle scene and they don't turn the handlebars or make the bike lean when going around a corner. Like, the graphics are _soooo_ good but then they make the danged plane turn and immersion breaks (for me).




Let me just plug this criminally underwatched video:

I have never seen flight discussed in such detail, especially by someone who is an artist, rather than a pilot or an engineer.


In the same vein, any time someone plays an instrument that they don't really play, and their hands aren't moving to match the music. Or when the sound for a vehicle doesn't match the actual vehicle type - there was a CGI short film with a motorbike that was clearly a Yamaha MT-01 with its massive V-twin, and it sounded like a 600cc 4-pot rather than a tractor.
