- wheresmycraisin 5y agoWow, the level of detail on even not-so-well-known animes like http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Jormungand http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Jormungand is amazing.
- mshockwave 5y agodespite being less known, Jormungand is one of the go-to animes for firearms/military enthusiasts.

- ggambetta 5y agoCan't take this seriously because it's missing the ubiquitous ZF-1. https://fifth-element.fandom.com/wiki/Zorg_ZF-1_Pod_Weapon https://fifth-element.fandom.com/wiki/Zorg_ZF-1_Pod_Weapon
- haunter 5y agoIt's there? http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Fifth_Element,_The#AKS-74U_.28as_the_.22Zorg_ZF-1_Pod_Weapon_System.22.29 http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Fifth_Element,_The#AKS-74U_.28as_t...
- ggambetta 5y agoStrange, my many searches didn't find it. I stand corrected.

- zepto 5y agoWhy not add it yourself?
- cgriswald 5y agoOn the other hand, I fully support the exclusion of the weirding module[0] from David Lynch's Dune. [0] - https://dune.fandom.com/wiki/Weirding_Module https://dune.fandom.com/wiki/Weirding_Module
- Mathnerd314 5y agoWell it doesn't have Dune at all, AFAICT. 28k pages vs 595k movies on IMDB, it's going to miss some. And they seem to have quite restrictive policies on who can edit, what counts as a gun, etc.
- Andrew_nenakhov 5y ago... These sardaukars are still salty after the freemen defeated them using weirding modules.
- SergeAx 5y agoTIL: "Each function of the ZF-1 demonstrated by Zorg was a separate prop which only had that one function". This is entirely obvious after thinking a bit, but still great example of movie editing for fooling audience.
- eatYourFood 5y agoDon't forget rust....

- SV_BubbleTime 5y agoYea, can wait for that one. Really though Baldwin is claiming the gun went off without him pressing the trigger. Which is a flat out lie he either believes or he is getting ahead of a lawsuit. The gun he used is a replica single action revolver, the replica was made in the 1960s and has a trigger bar. You can bash on that cocked hammer with… a hammer… and it won’t go off. That firing pin can not make contact with the primer until the bar is moved by pressing the trigger. Historical note, if a Colt SAA (Single Action Army) was to be carried anywhere, it had 5 rounds of the 6 shot chamber filled. It was carried on an empty chamber in case you fell off your horse. I saw a western once where the actor knew while talking about “trouble coming” to silently load a 6th round, good detail. Side note, there are still countries in Asia and South America that have their police carry with an empty chamber, mostly going back to this OLD advice. I would say Baldwin should have kept his mouth shut, but his arrogance since the shooting has wiped away any sympathy I had for the Actor. Baldwin the Producer, had always been liable in my eyes.
- yawnxyz 5y agoThere's also the Internet Movie Cars Database which I'm a huge fan of: https://www.imcdb.org/ https://www.imcdb.org/ edit: especially for a show like Archer where they feature a ton of very obscure cars... https://www.imcdb.org/movie_1486217-Archer.html https://www.imcdb.org/movie_1486217-Archer.html
- fortylove 5y agoAh, this is so cool! I was wondering about the Toyota SUV that Bond drives in No Time To Die. Found it easily with this site! https://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_1326115-Toyota-Land-Cruiser-J90-1998.html https://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_1326115-Toyota-Land-Cruiser-J9...
- aasasd 5y agoThese days you can also feed an image of a car to Google's image search, or to Yandex image search—the latter is more head-on about recognizing stuff in general, while Google still tends to suggest handwavy and useless descriptions like ‘sports utility vehicle’.
- ipsin 5y agoGlad to see that IMDB hasn't tried to hit every IM*DB with a Trademark claim?
- Mountain_Skies 5y agoThey might be worried a court will find that 'Internet Movie Database' is a generic name, which would lead to losing their trademark.

- rpmisms 5y agoI love this site! I often use it to find the cool gun a main character is using and get one for myself.
- cdot2 5y agoYour poor bank account
- jcims 5y agoEh, think of it as diversification. (until you start buying ammo anyway)
- tomschlick 5y agoDepending on the political climate, buying and sitting on large amounts of ammo for the next price surge could be a good investment.

- Rebelgecko 5y agoUnless you live somewhere that restricts your ability to resell it
- tomschlick 5y agoThankfully that legislative idiocy seems constrained to specific states.

- tertius 5y agoNo one likes gear.
- gao8a 5y agoGuns are cool. You should give them a try, I recommend at an outdoor range too. America is one of the last countries with a liberal mindset (in the true definition) that allows private ownership to exist. Like driving fast, flying or diving, there are few pleasures in life that match firing guns outdoors.
- knlje 5y agoI went to the army and spent many days at an outdoor range shooting at targets with an automatic rifle. I was a pretty solid shooter and earned some medals. Yet I fail to see where is the "cool" part. Shooting is just another skill you practice in order to kill.
- ARandomerDude 5y agoMilitary training will suck the fun out of pretty much anything. I've been on both sides and can honestly say I enjoy shooting a .22 with my kids way more than an automatic weapon in the Army. And it doesn't have to be about killing. We play shooting like people play darts. Hit the target for fun.
- chrissnell 5y agoThis is so true. Non-military friends talk about going to the gun ranges in Vegas where they can shoot M249s for absurd prices. All I can think about when I hear these stories is being on a broiling hot range in Oklahoma in the middle of July and having to go through cases of 5.56 because we sure as heck aren't going to go through the hassle of trying to turn unused ammo back in.
- major505 5y agoI love this site. It's a great resource to find weird guns in 80's movies.
- joan_kode 5y agoOK, I didn't realize how much detail was put into guns in Ghost in the Shell SAC: http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Ghost_in_the_Shell_Stand_Alone_Complex http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Ghost_in_the_Shell_Stand_Alone_Com... I didn't even feel like it had much of a focus on gun fights, but apparently it's like a detailed firearms museum. They also have airsoft product placements... I'm not that surprised, some people probably bought the featured airsoft guns purely for display.
- Dracophoenix 5y agoThe "POKER FACE" episode from 2nd GIG is one that focuses quite a bit on guns, though not exclusively.
- jldugger 5y agoMasamune Shiro is somewhat of a gun nerd, it turns out.
- AtlasBarfed 5y agoWhat was the SAAAIIITTOOOOO HAND OVER THAT WEAPON! ? Well, that was probably some fantastical hand held railgun.
- muzani 5y agoI'm impressed how much detail they put in the animation and how much work they put into documenting this too.
- frittata 5y agoWow, Bruce Willis in Die Hard and Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon used the exact same gun, "The live-firing handgun that was used in both films has since been 'retired' to a glass museum case." http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Lethal_Weapon_(1987) http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Lethal_Weapon_(1987)
- mikotodomo 5y agoIs there something like this for shoes?
- neetrain 5y agoI hope there was an Internet Movie Video Games Database.
- thelittleone 5y agoI only recently recognized that a high number of movie posters contain an actor(s) with a gun(s). Studios have obviously done their studies and we humans are obviously drawn to such imagery. I find it genuinely interesting from a psychology perspective. It would be interesting to process a dataset of movie posters to determine the % containing guns (or other objects of interest).
- bootlooped 5y agoIt's interesting that's true even for movies where the character barely touches a gun. In the movie Layer Cake the main character even states he hates guns and loathes having to use one at one point. Yet most of the poster art features him holding a pistol.
- Wohlf 5y agoIt's also easy shorthand to signal "this is an action movie".
- pangolinplayer 5y agoDoes anyone know a dayabase of movie frames so you can make something like Shazam for movies. Ideally obscure movies.
- opan 5y agoThere's trace.moe for anime. I haven't seen one for movies. (I assume trace.moe works on anime movies, though)
- boeingUH60 5y agoI love watching military-esque movies (e.g. SEAL Team, SWAT) and this site has for long helped me in identifying the numerous guns I see when watching.
