Talk:Terminator 2: Judgment Day: Difference between revisions

It's been a while since I saw the Shotgun News article where they sold the handheld Minigun but I do belive that the Minigun was geared down to a very low 1,250 round per minut rate of fire. I'm going to ask a friend in the class 3 community to confirm that with one of the people who owned the Predator.T2 minigun.

Who cares what an article says? The gun is firing so slow you can see the barrel cluster rotating clearly with no motion blur on camera or anything. It's not hard to count the revolutions the barrel cluster makes with the film in slow motion and use some simple math to deduce that the weapon is only firing about 240 rounds per minute. The special features in T2 even claim that the weapon is capable of firing more than "600 RPM" and that's a direct quote. The weapon may have been firing at 1250 RPM in Predator where you can see Jesse visibly wincing while firing it, but it was slowed WAY down in T2 so that the Terminator could fire it with no reaction whatsoever. | |||

Revision as of 13:11, 12 October 2009
Eventually I will give this page the revamp it deserves. I'll remove my terrible widescreen shots and make this page full. I promise. -GM
- Doing it now :) - Gunmaster45
Finished. But I'm going to add a lot more fun stuff and devote a whole section to Stan Winston, in honor of his passing (since I have just about every movie his animatronics are in, you guys will see shots from those movies here). - Gunmaster45
- I would really prefer if you didn't. Not that I don't respect Winston (having grown up a Jurassic Park fan), but this is IMFDB. Remember, we need to be somewhat careful about how many images and other stuff we upload. -MT2008 18:33, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
- Well I gave it a try. I think of it as info like MPM adds to his page, similair to the Rambo III page. I tried to keep the Winston section small but heartfelt. How does everything look now that it is done. - Gunmaster45
Handheld Minigun

Technically
Even though Mail Call has the most guns at 98 currently, this page is technically the largest on the site. It has the most pictures and written information of any page on IMFDB, even check largest pages section on Special pages. - Gunmaster45
- Just to bring up that some of the guns on Mail Call are repeats. Don't think it counts if you repeat some of the guns just because they appear again in a different season. I mean, Garand, M16, BAR. Repeated 3 times and you count them to the weapons count? That's cheating. You're supposed to just list the different kinds of guns shown and say if they appear in other seasons than to repeat them again. Excalibur01 06:03, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
- I guess that's a good point. Still, it took just as long to do the page as any other huge page, even though there are repeats. And I liked my format, I document the guns in each season individually, so no gun pic is weeded out do to excessive screencaps (which I've been ragged on about quite a bit). Even if the guns repeat, the time put into it and the amount of information would still make it the largest page, but I couldn't necessarily say it has the most guns. Once I get the rest of the seasons (which Ebay has now failed me on so finding the DVDs will be harder) the page will be too big to hold it all and likely split into sections. Anyway, it was dumb to make a competition out of page making. My bad. If The Unit has just a little more format correcting (image sizing and linking) it will be a great page. Right now it seems a little "rough draft". No offense of course. - Gunmaster45

Dirt bikes in this film are Hondas.
The dirt bike used by Jon Connor was not a Yamaha DT50. The bike used by Edward Furlong was a 1990 Honda XR80, while the one used by his stund double was a XR100 of the samed year. Both bikes had their front and side number plates removed, and were dirtied up to give them an older look.

Too long?
This page is really, really, really long. I think its cool how there is some Stan Winston stuff on here but I just think the bloopers and some other stuff kinda overkills it. Whoever worked on this did a very good job, but should this be page be trimed a little? --Mauser 05:50, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
