In researching this piece I came across a wiki as deliciously pitiful as Conservapedia, if not more so. The Internet Movie Firearms Database (imfdb.org) is why GCSB watch-lists may be justified after all (just kidding, they aren’t). This careful, meticulous cataloguing of weapons of personal destruction is a bang-bang fetishist’s wet dream.
Want to know which guns featured in 1974 Murder on the Orient Express? Of course you don’t – you’re probably too busy cleaning your Colt 45 and thinking that if your flatmates mess up the kitchen ONE MORE TIME you might need to throw it in the Leith. But just in case you did want to know, it’s all here on the IMFDB.
Articles for each film, video game or television show come fully loaded with obsessively captured screenshots. You can just imagine the heavy breathing of a top contributor, frantically hitting the pause button (like a gunpowder infused snap), capturing that perfect Glock shot and taking notes.
With over 13,000 articles, and 9,000 gun-totin’ Facebook fans, the IMFDB really puts that overly long Coro St article on Wikipedia into psychotic relief.
