"Corky Romano"
if anyone could please make a profile page for the movie "Corky Romano" that would be amazing! i'm sure many people don't find the movie entertaining, it's a comedy and a lot of people don't think it's too funny. But i dont know, i enjoy it. Anyways, there are two guns in the movie that I am particularly interested in, and am not 100% sure as to what they are. In the scene where Corky Romano is a translator for a drug deal going down, I want to know what the two pistols are that the two Asian, drug buyer, and seller, have in there possession. I'm not sure if I broke down that last sentence in a way that most people will understand it but I tried! haha. Anyways, I'm new to the website. And think it's awesome. There are more guns in that movie as well, that I don't know what they are. So i think a lot of "Corky Romano" fans out there would be happy to see all of the awesome guns in that movie! Hope someone can help me out.. Thanks again!
1988 Movie Ghost Town
Would someone please make a page for the 1988 movie Ghost Town starring Frank Luz. I think there was a Freedom Arms 454 Casull in the movie. They used the five shot capacity as a plot device.
Alphabetical Index Please
it's kind of ridiculous to have to click "next 200" dozens of times to get to a movie... Desperately needs a simple A-Z at the top of the page
- I can add it, but not sure how to make it centered.--Predator20 16:41, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
- Edit, I added it, but it's for all pages not just movies. Probably have to create a movie a to z code. I have no idea how to that.--Predator20 16:48, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
29 Palms!
can't believe Hobo with a Shotgun (I loved it!) is already up on IMFDB and 29 Palms still isn't! It's a pretty amusing film with several guns in it. The one I'd really like to see identified is the stainless semi-auto Mike Rappaport draws from the glove compartment of his police cruiser. Also the pistol used by the main character in the casino shoot out is hard to identify.
The Salton Sea
Hey just watched the Salton Sea, and was wondering if somebody could do a page on that movie. I'm actually surprised no one has done one yet. I saw a page for Airplane 2 but the Salton Sea has a weapons dealer in it.
Request for creating a category
I was trying already, a long time ago to create a "Slasher" movie category but, I agree it wasn't that actual back then, unlike now when we have much more of them (including Russian and Ukrainian examples) included and even more coming (personally screencapped two and will be adding them soon). Slasher is quite a loosely defined category but so do Blaxploitation, Zombie movies and Post Apocalyptic genre, too. I believe they have quite a few reasons why they are here which are also can be found in "Slasher genre". 1. Cross-genre or tendency to mix - as all the genres I have mentioned, Slasher is not exclusively horror. Many of the examples tend more to be a thriller, mystery component is quite often included as well (in fact, Agatha Christie's Ten Little Indians/And Then There Were None and The Mousetrap are some of the earliest examples known) and can as well mix with (examples included are Alien and The Terminator, no less), Zombie subgenre (Evil Dead movies are really close and were inspired by some of the slashers, also Friday the 13th franchise uses elements starting with the sixth movie) and even Fantasy (Wishmaster and some of the other supernatural slashers). --Kloga (talk) 20:51, 29 December 2013 (EST) 2. Genre's own firearm tendencies - while Blaxploitation will likely include something exclusive, heavily customized, mocked-up and nickel/gold-plated and has a tendency to mock-up existing firearms to make them look futuristic, Slasher has it's own trademarks in guns. The main one is that the movie of this genre/sub-genre will likely include only one firearm, or a limited quantity that may still be of the same model (to name a few: Halloween (1978), A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984), Shtolnya, Death Proof, ), though sequels will likely include more, especially if franchise goes a long way. It will also be likely featured in the hands of one of the protagonists and will misfire, backfire or in any other way be useless or harmful for protagonist. There are, also, by the way a few notable exceptions which include The Hitcher (1986) and it's remake and sequel, Maniac, The Terminator and TAG: The Assassination Game, which I hope to do a page for someday. 3. Genre being featured on the IMFDB already at some level - as I've already wrote it has many of them included, as of now. Some people tend to not count this genre as a serious one and so they want to exclude it from any serious categories of mainstream and even genre cinema, but it should be noted that genre still develops and inspires film-makers from all over the world and it's one of the most career-starting sub-genres ever for both directors and actors. However, I really like it and hope that one day it will be treated as it should be. --Kloga (talk) 20:51, 29 December 2013 (EST)
