Talk:Incredibles, The

This Page is questionable

the weapons are very stylized and don't look that much like the so called 'real world' weapons they are based on. But at least this film is 'closer' to actual weapons than other 'animated' films. Personally the entire genre should be the LAST thing we put on IMFDB. No one gives a rat's ass what kind of 'gun' that grey rectangle is supposed to be.

Yup. People who animate childrens movies don't give a rat's ass about animating a specific model of gun that the baddies are gonna use because the neither do the intended audience, children-S&Wshooter 04:07, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Umm,to me,they looked like MP40's or M3 Grease guns with scopes attached. I know completely off topic,but really,I was looking hard enough to give a rat's ass.-Pump Shotty Justice

Then you must be blind. They MAY have been influenced by the design, but they're not the same weapons. That in particular is why I don't believe the guns deserve listing (or the page). And yes, I really liked the movie, but that has nothing to do with it. Does it merit a page? That is really Debatable! MoviePropMaster2008 02:40, 13 December 2009 (UTC)

Yes, but the intended viewer doesn't care. They're more concerned with whatever Pokemon clone is currently popular and going to recess-S&Wshooter 04:53, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

While I'd prefer to watch a more violent movie, I'm not gonna lie: I find this film entertaining. And because I'm on this site, we all know I like firearms. Now while I'm not the INTENDED audience, I still have seen the movie, and I think it's IMFDB's job to assess weapons in any film, whether they move the plot along or not. So yes, I know that the intended audience doesn't care, but I feelthat we're obligated to find out anyway. GamerfreakB7 1912 hrs, 12 December, 2009

I think this page should be deleted from IMFDB. Mainly because, while the guns are more real looking then other cartoons, that doesn't say much. This is a Cartoon with "guns" that are mainly designed to look like what everybody who has never known much about guns thinks guns look like. This page should be deleted at once, it's just taking up space on the site. - Kilgore 16:24, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

I think it might be time to amend the rules regarding animation. Anime is allowed because "the animators care," so why can't we base it on that? Right now, this movie is eligible, but a show like Archer, where the animators seem to care, is instantly disqualified. I don't think it'd be too hard to do it case by case. --funkychinaman 19:15, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

I agree, I think that guns in cartoons should only have pages if the cartoon actually models them after real guns, not if they're shaped similarly to real guns. While reading this page, I was actually planning on coming to the discussion page and making a sarcastic comment about how Edna's laser turret should be added to the page, and to my horror as I kept reading it was already there. This page is a joke. And I loved the movie, for the record.That's One Angry Duck 03:21, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

Even the Supreme Court relies on "I'll know it when I see it." There are at least a dozen admins, and two or three new movies a day, tops, and those new additions are already being vetted for one reason or another. It can't be that hard to find three admins to vote for each new animated show or film. --funkychinaman 04:20, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

Look, I have no problem let a cartoon on IMFDb if it has weapons that are based 100% on real life guns, but this is basically a page that should have been deleted back when IMFDB got rid of cartoon pages that had "guns" that were based on common mis-understandings that all guns are the same. I think everybody is on the same level of thinking as me, so if nobody starts pissing their pants over it, this page is going to the Delete Catagory. - Kilgore 04:28, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

There's a gun that was missed.

In that one scene where Mr. Incredible receives his message from Mirage and he looks up at all the memorabilia hanging on his wall, there is a gun on display that looks loosely based on the real-world Heckler & Koch MP5K. I just watched the movie again recently, and I saw the gun's appearance. While it is not an EXACT match to the real-world counterpart, it comes pretty close. But if this article is still up for deletion, then I guess trying to add it in won't matter. --ThatoneguyJosh 01:45, 3 July 2011 (CDT)
