"Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" 2005 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0373469/
After being mistaken for an actor, a New York thief is sent to Hollywood to train under a private eye for a potential movie role, but the duo are thrown together with a struggling actress into a murder mystery.
The film was adapted from a book titled Bodies Are Where You Find Them by Brett Halliday.
Here's the original movie I remember as a child when the entire world copied the "James Bond" genre.

Kiss Kiss... Bang Bang is a 1966 Eurospy comedy film directed by Duccio Tessari and starring Giuliano Gemma, Nieves Navarro, George Martin, and Daniele Vargas.
I saw this but couldn't make heads or tails from it ....
FWIW also the title of a hit track from the 80s goth postrock band Specimen. The title was inspired by an old spy vs spy style comedy film.
For those who are seeing green toy guns, this is what his actual post appears as, on X...

Thanks FN!
FN incidentally makes incredible hardware... but not everyone has $4k to drop on a SCAR series...drool...
We have a friend in California that has the FN Assault Rifle...hubby has a Garand that wasn't in a boating accident. 😸
Yeah me too... it's still relevant with iron sights. It's only like 80 years old 😁
Back when Americans made durable goods
Yes! No planned obsolescence!
That’s a great clarification because as it is pictured here, it actually reads kiss kiss, squirt squirt and that’s just kind of weird
So for those confused about the emoji being different. First this is a change to the X/Twitter platform, so it's only viewable on their website, for now, until then anything outside of there will be replaced your phone manufacture and that depends on the phone. Unicode is the code behind the emoji. That code is changeable by manufactures of devices, so a Google pixel and Samsung galaxy have different emoji, same with windows, iPhone, Linux etc. This is a form of censorship from Google and the likes because "guns bad". But not specific to this post. Find an old phone that hasn't been updated but can get on Twitter and boom the gun emoji is there,(haven't tried this but in theory that is how it would work) apple swapped the gun emoji for a watergun back in like 2016 with IOS 10 and everyone else followed soon after.
It's not just on phones, in Firefox and Brave on my PC it shows squirt guns here but shows the proper pistols only when I'm on X.
Yes, I did mention windows and Linux (PC operating systems) and browsers can have their own code to so yep that confirms that it's a change exclusively effecting the website or app.
FYI:
According to Oli London, not all X users are seeing the new gun emoji. It's still showing as a water pistol.
I'm seeing the water pistol.
I'm seeing the real pistol...looks like a "45"
Using Opera browser on a laptop, am seeing green water pistols on GAW. Black handled pistols on X and an android phone. Noticed right below the post on X, there is a post by InterestingSTEM showing the morphing of gun emoji's over the years.
Weird, shows up as water pistols on this board, click the link and it shows up as handguns on x.
Facts
Movie is about incest, body doubles, incompetent assassins, pink haired women, faggots, actors, dead bodies in trunks, and DNA evidence (never pee on a corpse).
Kiss kiss, squirt, squirt?
Squirt guns. Given that his emoji arsenal has lots of other firearms, there must be a reason for the water pistols...
Some users can see a gun and other's are seeing a water pistol. Not sure if location of the X user matters. I'm not a gun gal but I think the new emoji is a .38 or a .45
Maybe I'm a victim of automatic censorship, with my phone changing the image ... interesting
The image shown at the top of this post shows green, toy guns. When I click on it, to go directly to Elon's post on X, it shows authentic looking pistols.
And on my Android the guns at the top of this post are orange super soaker guns
2 green squirt guns with brown muzzles aimed to the left for me. Hmm

It does matter as to location.
I turned on my VPN to other countries and I still always see the real pistols, not the water guns. Maybe the make and version of the phone/computer?
Yes, and the site it's shown on.
The one on x.com loads emojis as svg images. Odd because they could just use a custom emoji webfont.
The embedded tweet here shows the alt text (in this case gun emoji) with your system emoji font (Apple's is a green squirt gun, for example).
That water gun is perceived as an AK-47.
Wow! Then other people are seeing different guns!! I see a handgun, not a rifle.
Batman needs Robin.

I dunno I have inkling this is GameStop related but can’t really connect the dot.
OK - I don't get it. Can anyone explain what Elon is suggesting to me?

I'm wondering if Musk left the water pistols unchanged on twitter.com but changed the emojis to actual guns on x.com.
What we're seeing is stuff that's coming out from twitter.com here on GAW and if you are on a computer, you hover above Elon Musk's profile or on any of the links on that tweet, it will say, "https://twitter.com/elonmusk?..." but when you click on any of the links inside the tweet, it will redirect you to "https://x.com/elonmusk?..."
So I'm guessing the change hasn't gone into effect on Twitter domain, but already in effect on X domain?
Elon changed gun emoji's back to actual guns on X.
He is showing off the gun emoji. He stated he didn't like the water gun ones.
