Topic: imCARdb and imFIREARMdb

I don't know if others really know about these or care, but as a guy who really likes both cars and firearms, I find the Internet Movie Car Database and the Internet Movie Firearm Database really fun to browse.

I mention it because I just added links to the commentary entries on Zarban.com to both of those, via cute little car and gun icons, and I think it's kind of cool.

So now when you're on a commentary for The Matrix, you can instantly get a rundown of all the firearms used in the film. Or when you're on Transformers, you can instantly see the various vehicles used in the film. Even a lot of more fantastical sci fi films (Fifth Element) have entries that explain what weapons were the basis for the fantasy guns in the movie.

I figure, if you're interested in the nuts and bolts of a movie enough to listen to fans talk about it, you might also be interested in the cars and guns used in it.

Re: imCARdb and imFIREARMdb

Dude that's weird, I've actually been using both of these myself recently.  The Terminator Salvation m4a includes a couple weapons links care of IMFD, and I was able to help a guy at work identify the TVR Tuscan in the Loony Tunes movie thanks to IMCD.  I love these kinds of resources, you never know what you'll find.
