- I call dibbs when this comes out on DVD, if it's alright with everyone.
Time Era
Even though the gun is clearly a Redhawk and not a Super Redhawk just based on its appearance, I'm more concerned with when this movie takes place. Good points are brought up since all of the guns are very modern, yet I was under the impression this movie takes place in the 70s. I think it takes place in the 80s based on Stryker's line in X2 "It's been what, 15 years?" but I'm not certain. To "That Same Guy", this isn't a reboot of the X-Men series, it's a prequel. Since the wars stop after Vietnam, assuming it is the 70s isn't crazy. Actually, since the war went on til 1972, and then Logan joined Department H, we can knock off some years. After he quits, six years pass, so now we are in the 80s. It all depends on how long the gap is from the 70s to "six years later" I guess.
In the comics Howlett was transformed in the 1960s, but its pretty obvious the movies only loosely follow them.
So, discuss. - Gunmaster45
- I'm sorry, this movie takes place in 1979, the year of the Three Mile Island Incident. The Winchester
- I read that on IMDB, but I'm still not 100% on that... - Gunmaster45
- Wait so the fight at the end of the movie was supposed to be the Three Mile Island Incident, but the government covers it up to hide the mutant experiment stuff? Actually this makes a lot more sense; And Redhawk may of just been standing in as a Smith And Wesson, and all the other anarchostic guns were trying to resemble futuristic (in '79) weapons from Department H. - That guy / That same guy [I should make an account here I like this site]
