the CGI does not turn me off too much.

I think they were trying to fit all the tornado hunting lingo they could into a two hour movie...that can be silly at times.

i heart that movie!

it helped spur my interest in weather

and now with my new job in Oklahoma, i just may get to do the real thing!

Twister is one of my all time most forgettable movies

7/17/2008 6:42:32 PM

The video quality on this movie is some of the worst I have ever seen.

7/17/2008 6:46:07 PM

wasn't it the first movie released on DVD?



I still like it as well.

7/17/2008 7:43:46 PM

When it came out...everyone was like....


WOOOAHHHH...ITS A FUCKING COW FLYING ACROSS THE ROAD

7/17/2008 7:46:58 PM

What ruined it for me was at the end when they strapped themselves onto a pipe and survived a massive tornado that could pick up trucks and turn houses into piles of rubble. That shit would have pulled every limb from their bodies

7/17/2008 8:10:16 PM

Whenever they're all joking at the table and and the lady asks if anyone had ever seen an F5

and everyone goes silent

lol

7/17/2008 8:31:35 PM

saw that shit at the Waverly Place movie theater

before the movie, the manager came out and was like.. the audio on this movie is very loud, and we can't turn it down.. "you're in for a ride!"

what kind of gay shit is that

and that reminds me, wtf happened to Cary Elwes?

7/17/2008 9:18:16 PM

he was in Saw

7/17/2008 9:22:37 PM

I always forget it pronounced El-ways

I love the hell out of this movie. The interactions between Paxton and Hunt are hilarious. I wish it had more science/weather nerdy stuff but I am sure my fellow weather peeps can find the subtle humor in the exchange about Bill being a weatherman. Also the ending credits are my favorite of any movie ever.

7/18/2008 12:14:10 AM

It was a really entertaining movie at the time, but I do have one complaint about this movie that I think my science teacher had a good point about. That was:

Jesus Christ, Jo!
Jesus Christ, Jo!
Jesus Christ, Jo!
Jesus Christ, Jo!
Jesus Christ, Jo!
Jesus Christ, Jo!
Jesus Christ, Jo!

Bill Paxton said the Lord's name in vain way too many times in that movie.

I think the movie is still awesome for being one of the first over-the-top environmental disaster movies that wasn't quite as ridiculous as the ones to follow. I mean, we've gone from Twister to fucking The Day After Tomorrow. If you follow along in between you'll notice the environmental disaster movies getting ever so slightly more and more ridiculous and outrageous (slowly declining in quality too).

I dont think I have seen that movie since it was at the theatre... cant even rememeber when it came out... 96? 98?

7/18/2008 12:53:43 AM

remember when that oil truck flips and then they drive right through?

That's kind of what you'd say during a tornado If I knew the word fuck in 1991, I would have said that when I experienced a tornado.

Heh, not to mention didn't they have their eyes open the entire time?

Correct. DVD release number one.

Bill's wife that doesn't cut it in tornado chasing

i wonder if she can spare a square

7/18/2008 6:23:58 PM

^ I get it.

7/18/2008 6:58:14 PM

^^ I don't get it. Best part of the movie is probably her breastesses bouncing as she goes running across the parking lot.

Nah he says it directed at Jo way too many times. That was what was ridiculous.
