Talk:King Kong (2005)
- If I get some time, I wanted to add just a few (and I mean FEW) caps from the movie, because some really nice closeups were over looked. - Gunmaster45
Go ahead, I rushed through the movie when I screencapped because it was so long.--Alienqueen11 20:25, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
Cannon
It may have been selected as the weapon is still (2008) in use and ammunition produced for it; the British Royal Horse Artillery use the cannon, on a conventional carriage mount, for ceremonial purposes such as firing salutes and participating in military "tattoos". However this is mere speculation.
It goes without saying that this weapon was never, in reality, used either by the US Army or by any National Guard unit.
However it's very cool looking and fits the time period. Jcordell
The Gunners
Peter Jackson is not the only one to appear as the gunner. Movie director Frank Darbont and special effects make-up maestro Rick Baker also were. Is this information needful ? --Kloga 13:21, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
Browning M2
I am pretty sure these are not M2 .50 Brownings but rather the Browning AN/M2variant which fires a .30 cal round. I base this on the relative size of the weapon compared to the fuselage of the Curtiss Falcon and, honestly, that when I looked up the aircraft itself the armament mentioned .30 cal guns only...no mention of .50 cals. --Charon68 15:23, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
