It’s even cooler when you find their origins. They were given to Arthur Eld by the creator god Gan, and as such are the only objects in any universe that can actually open the doors of the Dark Tower. Without them, it remains barred even to the _Gods._
In case anyone is curious, Roland’s guns here are a pair of customized Remington 1858 army revolvers. The custom features are the double action triggers and the swing-out cartridge round cylinders.
The one handed reloading trick that was always described in the book shown in full glory. Loved that part, its a crime they didnt do it right, the casting was dope.
Hes father died by satan and the guy wich is the gunslinger his name was roden and beacause of his anger he practiced thats why his a great gunslinger👌👌
This is what I imagine the concept of a gunslinger is. Someone who has absolutely mastered their firearm to the point of perfection. Perfect aim, perfect reload, every time.
@@PhycoKrusk Yeah it confused me at first but under the cartridges he's got a row of single bullets that he pushes in with his thumb as he rolls the chamber under them. Very cool but blink and you'll miss it.
@@MrValz0 No, I saw those, and that's still the problem; those are rimmed cartridges. The base of the cartridge is wider than the body; it's impossible to push them downward like that. Never mind it'd be almost impossible to load a swing-out cylinder like that, since its tendency would be to close. Unless Roland is a wizard; all things considered, this is a real possibility. Is Roland a wizard?
To be fair, John Wick`s entire stick is getting more and more hurt throughout each and every one of his movies, a LOT. His badassness comes from always gritting through it, standing up and keep killing them back harder. Roland is just straight up superhumanly tough and accurate tho, freaking Dante from DMC3/4 might have trouble keeping up in a shooting contest.
Wrong. This is what Han Solo would be if he used the Force. Gunslingers shoot with their hearts and not their eyes. If Han Solo could use the Force, he would be the best shot in the Galaxy.
After watching the movie and reading the book, I found that there were a few things that felt a little off the radar to me, but the casting of the gunslinger and the man in black was phenomenal to me. I’m reading The Gunslinger now and every time they enter the scene I can only picture Idris and Matthew as the roles respectively speaking.
@@YoRon427 You must be new to film. White people have played every race in existence. Because it’s an industry built for the white man by the white man. Now that’s changing thankfully.
Same with me. I first saw the trailer and was like "Oh, HELL yes!" Then I read the books and was like, "Oh, HELL yes!" And watched the trailer and again and was like "Wow, this got shit with perspective."
I haven’t read any of the books but I have a friend who has and he told me “Gunslingers” have marksmanship that borders on the supernatural and are VERY proficient with revolvers so now I know at least why they made this scene.
They’re so much more than that: each Gunslinger is trained as harshly and painfully as possible to harden their hearts against any possible enemy, and they never, _never_ miss a shot. Roland is special, mainly because he’s the last Gunslinger, but also because his guns were cast from the iron taken from the sword of the legendary Arthur Eld; his worlds variant of King Arthur. They, and _they alone,_ have the power to open the doors of the Dark Tower. Without them, they remain barred even to machinations of the Gods themselves, meaning that not even divine command can break the locks. Only the Heir of Eld, wielder of the Sword(in whatever form it takes,) can set foot within.
Yeah! If they didn't kill each other first. Roland (whose Mid-World bullets are perfectly capable of killing vampires) might just shoot Blade without question. Would still be a cool movie , though!
@@subliteral Blade has faced multiple opponents far greater like Drake and that other tough vampire. Let it be known that vampires are super quick that it seems they teleport sometimes even though they don’t. They just move super quick and by quick I mean bursts of 50 to 100 mph for like a mile or 2. Drake is literary Dracula and can not only move at speeds of 100+ miles and hour but he can also fly, has immense strength that Beats even Cap himself by 3 to 5 times. In fact not even the greatest werewolf could beat Dracula on his prime. Which by the way vampires live for thousands of years and never seem to age. Now Blade beats all of them with difficulty, but Blade is a force you don’t want to meet. He could literary take an army of well trained elite soldiers of let’s say 20 in under 10 to 20 seconds. Yeah blade is that fast. Think about the equalizer, but amped up and able to even walk vertically on walls and even jump from high places and more strength. Gunslinger guy would give him a tough battle, but Blade takes it.
This movie had a lot of problems but the action sequences weren't one of them. I thoroughly enjoyed this film because of that, even if it was only barely adapted from the books. The gunslinging was everything I'd hoped it would be.
Hope Mike Flanagan gets a chance to adapt the series proper in the future and takes note of the action scenes here. Great job with all the reloading tricks too.
In this era of semi-autos, SMGs, and Assault Rifles, if a man voluntarily brings a revolver to a gun fight, I will be afraid. It means 1) He is likely VERY good with it and/or 2) he has another edge he hasn't shown yet.
Reminds me of that Bruce Lee quote: "I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times."
To be fair midworld apprentice gunslingers such as jake are able to have 6 plates thrown into the air and to have all of them destroyed before they hit the ground. Considering in the books Cuthbert was able to hit 3 guys through the brain from a range of 200 meter or even thousands withing a span of 10 seconds. Those who are shooting at him didn't have enough time to take aim against a fully fledged gunslinger. Roland makes a remark to this when he's fighting a few cops and makes a comment on how slow they are compared to a midworld gunslinger.
Do you know that even real cops have problem to hit a man from nearly point-blank range? You may search for statistics of the gunfights in USA but it is roughly that 50% hit probability comes at distances around 5 meters. After that it drops down like a lead wight
When a man in a 3/4 length black leather trench coat brings only a pair of Remington 1858s to a substantial gun battle, you know you're about to have a pretty bad day.
They're far from useless if you know how to use them. Only time they begin to flag is in extended engagements or firefights of attrition. Me? I'm a southpaw living in England. I'm more likely to find an old break-action Webley than a an auto with a custom ejector port and receiver assembly. I'll take the six-gun and learn how to shoot it right thank you very much.
@@theo-jamesmoulton2000 The average firefight exchange ends in 6-15 shots and is at pistol ranges far more often than not according to quite a few defense shooting studies. Considering most defense-carry revolvers tend to be in heavier rounds (IE not .380 or similar compact calibers automatics favor), they'll drop just about anyone that wants to push their luck, even with light body armor on. My CCW caliber of choice is .357 Magnum, which was originally designed for punching through steel car frames/doors and early body armor of the 1930s. To change up a quote from an awesome RUclips channel "9mm kills the body .357 kills the soul"
I think Idris learned his lesson with Denzel and now decided to resurrect and become a gunslinger himself, as a memento of guns being a weapon of destruction when wielded by the right man!
In Roland's home world bullets were rare. So he had to make every round count. Then you bring him to our world where ammunition is abundant. Yeah, he's a force to be reconed with now.
I think a lot of people disliked this film because they were expecting an adaptation of the books instead of a continuation. My main problem are that the plot seemed rushed and the setting needed to be fleshed out more. If the film added another half hour of meaty quality scenes it would have been awesome.
@@dalodulo1373 Difference is is that historically a lot of non-white characters have been whitewashed leading to under representation in media and the theft of history. Context is important and the comparison you offered is a false equivalence because of it.

Honestly, while Idris Elba wasnt the guy I pictured while reading the Books (I imagined Clint Eastwood in his mid-40s), he did a surprisingly good job. On that note, in my honest opinion, Matthew McConaughey as the Man in Black was perfect casting.

Would have been great if this had been a series instead of a stand alone movie. Just think of how spectacular to see all the developed characters of Stephen King on screen: Susannah, Eddie and Oy. We could of gotten the Crimson King and mordred also. The movie had so much potential to be on the ranks of great films such as lord of the rings yet it was a disorganized disaster of a movie. I hope that in a few years we can get a redo of this so that I can have a Stephen King movie to marvel at because let's face it IT was not that good.
I think it might be time to accept that Stephen King sucks. Everything of his that has ever been put to film sucked, with the notable exception of The Shining. Of course King hated that movie, presumbably because it wasn't mind-numbingly boring
Elba as the Gunslinger was awesome. But they could have allowed MattMac to play such a good version of Randall Flagg though. Shame how he just became this generic bad guy mastermind.
Would have been a great franchise opportunity if they had just made 1 movie per book, or maybe a movie from the first three books then a tv series, instead of just trying to cram elements from all of the books into a single movie.
I actually liked this movie. I’d probably watch it again since it’s been so long but I’m kinda “blunt” like that. 9/10 if I can remember a movie title and it doesn’t put me to sleep I’ll probably be like “oh I like this movie”
I only caught a quick glimpse, but his gun belt looked just like the one that Clint Eastwood used in "Pale Rider." What's really cool is that you can buy those now.
the only problem i see is that he isn’t emptying his rounds usually, he was just reloading, a couple times it was shown he dropped the bullets but you know
Really loved the subtle detail in the movie…like if you know anything about where his guns come from you would appreciate the way he used them to parry the machete attack. I think one day this movie will be analyzed better by the fans and see that they did a lot with what little they had.
They tell me that Reed guy once wiped a whole building in the middle of Pacifica with nothing but a pair of Overtures. What chrome d'you need to pull _that_ off?
It's so cool to find out that Roland's guns (the ones with the sandalwood grips) are cast from the steel of King Arthur's sword.

They have hoodoo on them.
Authur is pleased

Sad thing they rushed the movie so much
It could been better as a series or a trilogy
I always thought Daniel Craig would be good (the blue eyes)
Would have been great if this had been a series instead of a stand alone movie. Just think of how spectacular to see all the developed characters of Stephen King on screen: Susannah, Eddie and Oy. We could of gotten the Crimson King and mordred also. The movie had so much potential to be on the ranks of great films such as lord of the rings yet it was a disorganized disaster of a movie. I hope that in a few years we can get a redo of this so that I can have a Stephen King movie to marvel at because let's face it IT was not that good.
we are supposed to get a series based on wizard and glass focused on roland cuthbert and alain
I bet Alain will be black and Cuthbert will be an annoying white guy.
I totally agree with the original statement !!! How many of us would have like someone like Peter Jackson on this film ?
You wanted MORE of this?
I think it might be time to accept that Stephen King sucks. Everything of his that has ever been put to film sucked, with the notable exception of The Shining. Of course King hated that movie, presumbably because it wasn't mind-numbingly boring
I enjoyed this movie.. well just the action
that's one hell of an action scene
badass shooting, movie bit nah and the tingle of metal after each shot
I love the sound of his revolvers
One of the best scen I've ever seen
I remember watching this movie brings back the memories🥲
This might be one of the most underrated actions scenes in movie history
That swan dive tackle from a story up was of divine origin
When the squad dead but the op player starts Killin fools
Straight facts
This is how I imagine all those who have spawn killed me must feel like...
Elba as the Gunslinger was awesome. But they could have allowed MattMac to play such a good version of Randall Flagg though. Shame how he just became this generic bad guy mastermind.
Average gunslinger player in killing floor 2.
Would have been a great franchise opportunity if they had just made 1 movie per book, or maybe a movie from the first three books then a tv series, instead of just trying to cram elements from all of the books into a single movie.
Great shots
I'd give at least 2 fingers to see a TV series of the books with all the characters and arcs.
I feel like this when I play red dead and only get headshots without deadeye.
The best sci-fi modern western shootout 💯
PERFECTION!!!
I actually liked this movie. I’d probably watch it again since it’s been so long but I’m kinda “blunt” like that. 9/10 if I can remember a movie title and it doesn’t put me to sleep I’ll probably be like “oh I like this movie”
IF I ever get a gun, it will be an old fashoined revolver
This is like when your so close to dropping a mothership in black ops and now everyone in the whole damn game wants to come at you
I only caught a quick glimpse, but his gun belt looked just like the one that Clint Eastwood used in "Pale Rider." What's really cool is that you can buy those now.
It's like a real life version of John and Arthur's Dead Eye abilities from Red Dead Redemption.
With that ting of metal after each shot, it sounds like the gunslinger's getting a crit in TF2 with every shot lmao
the only problem i see is that he isn’t emptying his rounds usually, he was just reloading, a couple times it was shown he dropped the bullets but you know
Really loved the subtle detail in the movie…like if you know anything about where his guns come from you would appreciate the way he used them to parry the machete attack. I think one day this movie will be analyzed better by the fans and see that they did a lot with what little they had.
This man is a gunslinger version of itachi uchiha
That's what i call GODLIKE
Level 20 max DEX dual-wield specced Gunslinger in action. Probably has a few mythic levels too.
Not sure whether to like or hate those Remington 1858 cartridge conversions.
He could've easily gone for Peacemakers.
2:30 That's probably the best thing about this movie.
Shooting the guy through the scope.or catching the cleaver between the barrels of his guns?
Pov: how it feels to play max level gunslinger in killing floor
They tell me that Reed guy once wiped a whole building in the middle of Pacifica with nothing but a pair of Overtures. What chrome d'you need to pull _that_ off?
