Talk:Terminator Genisys

Anachronistic Weapons

I hope they will explain how Sarah Connor in the early 1980's gets a hold of so many anachronistic weapons. --Ben41 (talk) 16:32, 5 December 2014 (EST)

In the trailer there is what appears to be a cobbled together version of the time machine, so best guess is that they jump forward from the 80s to present day like in the Sarah Conner Chronicles. You also see that version of the Terminator with longer grey hair in the trailer, which is either from him in the present day (assuming that just Sarah and Kyle make the jump), or it is actually an old human that the template is based on but I am more inclined to think the former. I think therefore there are four different time periods: 60s where the Terminator rescues young SC, 80s from the original film, present(ish) day after the time jump, and the future. Speaking of the scene from the 60's where the Terminator is carrying the child SC, he is carrying what appears to be a Carl Gustav Recoilless Rifle. --commando552 (talk) 19:18, 5 December 2014 (EST)

Apparently the EARLIER time jumps completely changed the world as we knew it. This is an alternate timeline. Thus anything could have happened. Now that they changed history all the way from the 1960s, many weapons which were just design ideas at the time, could have been instituted earlier. Time travel and history 'changing' is probably the ONLY time anachronisms can still be explained and fit in to the story. ;) But then this is just conjecture on my part and should be regarded as such.

I saw a scene where Sarah confronted the T-1000 disguised as Kyle. Her MP5K had a PDW stock and that scene was set in 1984. I can't remember but isn't the PDW stock not developed for at least another decade? Dangerman1973 (talk) 21:52, 1 July 2015 (EDT)

MANPADS ID

Couldn't fit the justification in the edit box so will put it here: That launcher is not a Redeye but rather the later Stinger (or a convincing mock-up) for the following reasons:

• The sighting unit on the Redeye is slightly simpler looking being more of a solid box which is inline with the pivot point (example). On the Stinger the sight is offset on slanted brackets where it meets the rest of the launcher, and it is also more complicated in shape looking like there is stuff hanging under it (example), just like as seen in the cap.
• The movies launcher has the IFF antenna which was used on the Stinger and not the Redeye (the wire cage looking thing above the tube opposite the sight). Granted this is easily (and commonly) faked, so this is not deffinitive by itself.
• The bottom of the fire control unit appears to be squared off like on a Stinger, as opposed to on the Redeye where this is semi-circular.
• Both launchers have what is called an un-caging switch (this unlock the gyro-stabilised seeker in the missile allowing it to track the target by itself after a target is found and get a better lock, and also to keep a lock whilst applying lead and super-elevation) which takes the form of a rectangular rubber pad on the left side of the fire control unit. On the original Redeye this was long, mounted in the middle and relatively high, as opposed to on the Stinger where it was smaller and mounted on the extreme bottom front corner. It's had to tell for sure due to the lighting and the fact that the launcher has been slightly dressed up, but it appears that the switch is in the Stinger position.

I'm curious, did you flip this cap yourself to get it the right way round? The version of the trailer I saw (here) had this shot reversed. --commando552 (talk) 19:42, 5 December 2014 (EST)

Yes, I flipped it because that's probably what it's going to look like in the finished film. --Ben41 (talk) 20:37, 5 December 2014 (EST)

Future guns

From some promo images that have been release, it appears that the future weapons are actually modified real guns:

Both of them are AK type guns, Jason Clarke's appears to be an AKS-74U type (based on the mag well dimple and the top of the AKS-74U/AKMSU style front sight being visible, whilst Matt Smith's looks like a Galil MAR based on the distinctive rear sight. --commando552 (talk) 19:52, 5 December 2014 (EST)

I just saw the movie and here are some of the weapons that I could make out.

G3/H&K91

Z-M LR 300ML

M1014

Sterling SMG

Keltec KSG with a C-More Sight

--Insertjjs (talk) 20:56, 1 July 2015 (EDT)

Just saw the movie myself, and can confirm some of the weapons. Kyle uses a P226 E2, Glock 17, Revolver that may be a Smith & Wesson Model 15 or a Colt Trooper, i didn't get a good look. He also uses the Kel-Tec KSG and Colt M4's. Sarah uses a Desert Eagle, which we saw in the trailer, Browning Hi Power, P226 E2. They both also use the Remington Model 1100. Not sure if i should add any of this now or wait till we can get the screen caps. --Bauer2121 (talk) 16:31, 5 July 2015 (EDT)

ISS videos

Here's a couple of videos of people going to ISS to check out some of the weapons from the movie; there's shots of the plasma weapons that would make for good "Special" photos: [1], [2].

Also, five M134s? Wow!--Quarax (talk) 22:53, 11 July 2015 (EDT)
