Talk:A Scanner Darkly

Glock and service pistol

Arctor's pistol definitely looks like a Beretta, probably a 92FS. The Glock looks smaller than the 17, soooo G19? --PyramidHead (talk) 14:22, 9 March 2014 (EDT)

I'm not sure this page is eligible for inclusion. It may be rotoscoped, but there's very little detail in the weapons, so little, I can only make one positive ID. (Bob Arctor's pistol appears to be a Beretta 92FS, and even that changes in the very next screenshot.) We can't even see the gun in the last two Glock screenshots. --Funkychinaman (talk) 16:28, 9 March 2014 (EDT)

I agree, if we're not going to allow animated series with crudely drawn weapons, this one looks like it shouldn't be included. Because none of the weapons were readily identified and unless there are behind the scenes shots showing the actor holding a prop weapon, I would lean towards not allowing this one. --Ben41 (talk) 16:43, 9 March 2014 (EDT)

Technically, we do allow animated series in some cases (i.e. Archer), and since this movie was rotoscoped, we can safely assume that there was a propmaster who brought real blank-adapted weapons to the set for the actors to handle. Arctor's pistol is indeed a Beretta 92FS, as far as I can tell, and that cop is definitely using a Glock. I think that level of certainty is enough to warrant inclusion. -MT2008 (talk) 22:16, 10 March 2014 (EDT)

Most of the other weapons (such as the carbine) are very difficult to identify. Because there are now BTS shots of the weapons used, I would lean towards inclusion. Can anyone make any more ID's on the weapons? --Ben41 (talk) 22:25, 10 March 2014 (EDT)
