Who Identified the TAN uniforms as SFPD. They look nothing like SFPD, nor the SF Sheriff dept. Could be CHP but the patches look wrong. I have not seen this film, does anyone know?

Can anyone tell if the "M249" is actually a [[Daewoo K3]]? The screencap provided isn't good enough for me to tell, but this movie was filmed mostly in British Columbia, and as I pointed out on the K3 page, the armorers over there always use K3s as M249 stand-ins. -[[User:MT2008|MT2008]] 09:11, 7 December 2011 (CST) | Can anyone tell if the "M249" is actually a [[Daewoo K3]]?

Took out gas can
It's not a weapon. It's not even a grenade of any kind, so I took it off. Excalibur01 21:59, 26 June 2011 (CDT)
Apes vs guns
Seriously, my problem with this movie is that they set it in a modern setting where the apes suddenly became smart and I guess demanded to be treated like intelligent beings...so their way to do this is to rise up, make weapons and attack honest cops? Sounds like they aren't so intelligent after all and more like well salvage animals that can write their names and read books. Seriously, the monkeys have sticks and the humans have guns...it's obvious who should win. Excalibur01 21:59, 26 June 2011 (CDT)
- Yeah I don't know about this movie. :\ Anyways, the Unknown Firearm is a MP5 with the new UMP-type stock and a scope. - Mr. Wolf 22:14, 26 June 2011 (CDT)
- Somewhere in the mix of the movie should be a Glock 18C conversion mounted in an EMA Tactical RONI...unless they decided not to use it or the footage in which it was used was cut.
For some reason it really annoys me to see movie SWAT guys with the big "SWAT" printed on the back of their vest...(the new Batman series included, even though the movies are great...) Not to mention these guys even got the American flag on their shoulder backward...--Wildcards 18:10, 8 July 2011 (CDT)
Well we can forgive the universal POLICE or SWAT or FBI logo on vests. I'm still wondering why did they make this reboot like this. How will this really build up to the Planet of the Apes? There aren't enough monkeys and apes in the world to takes us over. Annoy the hell out of us and cause a lot of trouble the first couple weeks but it'll give every gun owner in America an excuse to shoot every ape they see because...they are breaking our shit. Excalibur01 23:44, 10 July 2011 (CDT)
- This movie will FAIL. I mean, don't we have guns, jets, tanks, missiles, and such? - Kenny99 01:20, 15 July 2011 (CDT)
- We had that stuff in Conquest of the Planet of the Apes as well, yet the apes still won. Spartan198 01:31, 7 December 2011 (CST)
Aren't their vests supposed to say POLICE or SWAT on them --Jd0554 00:06, 11 July 2011 (CDT)JD0554
- Is it me or is the M249 either the heat shield variant with a collapsible stock or a paratrooper variant with a heat shield? - Kenny99 01:09, 15 July 2011 (CDT)
I don't mind the POLICE or FBI tags, but I just can't stand the SWAT tags. Just like agents from FBI HRT will have FBI rather than HRT on their vests, police tactial teams should have POLICE or whatever PD they come from on the vest rather than SWAT... I know it seem a trivia matter, but it just really bothers me...--Wildcards 12:46, 15 July 2011 (CDT)
How believable is the bridge scene?
Haven't seen the movie yet, but I do remember that in Conquest of the Planet of the Apes, it looked like the makers went out of their way to give the apes an advantage over the police/soldiers, which didn't impress me (honestly, apes standing pressed shoulder to shoulder in front of a literal firing squad and they don't drop like flies when the shooting starts?). So is the battle between the apes and the police a bit more based in reality?
- I don't know, but for some reason, they can manage to take multiple shots from a 5.56 mm assault rifles and a 7.62 mm machine guns. - Kenny99 23:02, 12 August 2011 (CDT)
- It was a 3-prong attack from the front, below, and above. Spartan198 01:37, 7 December 2011 (CST)
Police Marksman in Helicopter
I saw this film the other day, the police marksman in the helicopter in the bridge scene appeared to be using a scoped G36C, or a G36K with the top rail. I didn't get a good look, but it definitely wasn't an SL8 or a full sized G36. Could someone who got a better look put it into the article?
HK G36K "short" (Kurz) assault rifle; standard version with iron sights and Picatinny rail ? (4 vents, not 2 vents like G36C)... with big tac turrets scope.
What is up with the uniforms?
Who Identified the TAN uniforms as SFPD. They look nothing like SFPD, nor the SF Sheriff dept. Could be CHP but the patches look wrong. I have not seen this film, does anyone know? MoviePropMaster2008 02:27, 7 December 2011 (CST)
- The police are actually SFPD as the scene takes place in San Francisco. The uniforms could probably be an inaccuracy. - Kenny99 23:17, 12 December 2011 (CST)
M249
Can anyone tell if the "M249" is actually a Daewoo K3? The screencap provided isn't good enough for me to tell, but this movie was filmed mostly in British Columbia, and as I pointed out on the K3 page, the armorers over there always use K3s as M249 stand-ins. -MT2008 09:11, 7 December 2011 (CST)
