**THIS IS WILD!!** Twister (1996) Reaction/ commentary: FIRST TIME WATCHING 

This movie, along with Dante's peak, is one of the movies that got me into disaster movies

As someone raised in a part of West Texas that's considered Tornado Alley. I've experienced plenty of tornadoes. One thing I loved about this movie is how they really nailed how the wind changes and the energy you feel in the air. It is both oppressive and electric. Also the silence just before the wind picks up. It so well done for a 90s film too. Love it

I love how they sometimes make the tornado seem almost alive, like a roaring monster.

I always took the “I’m not that upset” line as she was hurt and upset, as you would expect, but that she knew she would be okay; as opposed to the devastation and heartbreak that would come with losing someone you deeply loved.

Fun fact: the meteorologist you hear on TV at Meg's house and briefly see on the TV in Melissa's motel room is Rick Mitchell, an actual meteorologist who worked in the Oklahoma City area at the time this was filmed. Rick is now the chief meteorologist for NBC5 in Dallas/Ft. Worth, where I live. He's EXCELLENT at covering dangerous weather, which is why the station's previous chief, David Finfrock, hand picked him to be his successor. He's very good at keeping you calm when legitimately dangerous weather is happening (like tornado warnings for confirmed tornados on the ground) by saying things like, "Now this isn't like a Joplin or Moore we're talking about here, but it's still a dangerous situation. Just get the kids, get the pets, and get in your safe spot until we give the all clear. We'll all be okay." My sister and I say he's like the Mr. Rogers of TV weather. lol

I think other people have suggested it, so I’ll cast my vote too 😊 Dante’s Peak is a great 90s disaster movie! Grew up on these two.

My favorite quote for some reason is, "When you used to tell me you chased tornadoes, deep down, I always thought it was a metaphor." No idea why, but that's the one that stuck with me.

Pecos Hank is a storm chaser who has numerous real life tornado films on RU-vid.

If you want some good 90's teen horror you can't go wrong with "Idle Hands" or "The Faculty" both have a stacked cast. Great reaction this movie gave me the love of stormy weather when I was little lol.

This movie kinda started the late 90's run of disaster movies that lead to The Day After Tomorrow. It was followed by Volcano (with Tommy Lee Jones) and Dante's Peak (with Pierce Brosnan and Linda Hamilton), which are both about volcanos, but with different approaches that make none of them replaceable by the other. The same goes for Armageddon (with Bruce Willis) and Deep Impact (about asteroids colliding with Earth). But my favorite of that era is Daylight (with Stallone) Hope you'll go for all of them.

They actually tried something similar to Dorthy in the 70s and 80s called TOTO (Totable Tornado Observatory), but never worked. Also, the 3 sensor deploy units from this movie can be seen on display at The National Weather Center in Norman, OK.

Here are "a few" amazing movies of the 90's : The Shawshank Redemption , American Beauty, Reservoir Dogs, GoodFellas, Saving Private Ryan, Jurassic Park, Malcolm X, Fight Club, Se7en, Toy Story, Casino, The Matrix, Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Unforgiven,The Sixth Sense, Beauty and the Beast, Boyz n The Hood, Schindler's List, Fargo, Pulp Fiction, Heat , GoldenEye, Jackie Brown, Edward Scissorhands , The Silence of the Lambs, The Fifth Element, Cruel Intentions, Braveheart, L.A. Confidential, Thelma and Louise, Speed, Clueless, Virgin Suicides, The English Patient, Notting Hill, The Crying Game, Groundhog Day, The Truman Show, A Little Princess, Good Will Hunting, Magnolia, Reality Bites, Heavenly Creatures, The Big Lebowski, Four Weddings and a Funeral, The Lion King, Eyes Wide Shut, Philadelphia, Princess Mononoke, Boogie Nights , The Man in the Moon, Men in Black , Galaxy Quest, Breaking the Waves, Being John Malkovich, Pleasantville, Pretty Woman , Short Cuts, JFK, Romeo + Juliet, The Game, Great Expectations, Dazed and Confused, The Blair Witch Project, Office Space, Three Colors Trilogy: (Blue, White Red), Aladdin, Bottle Rocket, Scream, The Last of the Mohicans, The Thin Red Line, Addams Family Values, Get Shorty, Independence Day, The Last Seduction, Dances With Wolves, A Bronx Tale, Babe, Jerry Maguire, There's Something About Mary.

This is my favorite movie of all time. I know it by heart, in high school I wrote the whole screen play of it, by memory.

Every time I see a Twister reaction, I feel compelled to point out that when Dusty turns on the music in his van, the music we hear is the studio recording of Deep Purple's Child in Time, but the footage on his TV is from Deep Purple's live performance at the 1974 California Jam, where they did not play Child in Time.

Storm Chasers was a popular series on Discovery when this movie came out. They did develop methods of tracking tornadoes, similar to what is used in the movie. Three of the people who "starred" in the series were killed. While they were "adrenaline" junkies, they also took the science very seriously. Sean Casey was filming an IMAX film of tornadoes, Tim Samaras (one of the three who passed) had new science he was using for tracking, Reed Timmer still does this.

Storm chasing is definitely real and definitely dangerous, although in real life they don't ever get as close as the characters in the movie do (at least not if they can help it). Unfortunately, besides storm chasing as a necessary part of important research that can save lives, there are also storm chasers that are for-profit tourist businesses, "guides" taking customers in for the best view, which to my mind is deeply irresponsible.

As a photog for KSWO channel 7 in Oklahoma, we had a storm chaser truck. We only used it locally and for parades, but when a system was near I'd go out and I can tell you those full time professional storm chasers are passionate and nuts!!! 😆

Along with Twister, Deep Blue Sea (1999) & Lake Placid (1999) movies are my favorites. I've watched them hundreds of times and still love them. It's not 90's but Day After Tomorrow is a really good natural disaster movie too.

That was an amazing reaction! Thank you so much for watching this icon! Believe it or not, they actually interviewed 2 people who actually were in the middle of the tornado and survived. So everything Bill and Jo saw were exactly as the survivors described it. Helen Hunt has also been in these films: Quarterback Princess, based on true story about a girl being a kicker on all boys football team, and Soul Surfer, which based on the true story of Bethany Hamilton’s shark attack and overcoming her obstacles to get back in the water. If you want more natural disaster films I recommend Dante’s Peak and Volcano. Other 90s movies I recommend are Baby’s Day Out, Mighty Joe Young, Born To Be Wild, Buddy, Alaska, ANTZ, The Parent Trap, Balto, We’re Back! A Dinosaur Story, Homeward Bound 1-2, The Indian in the Cupboard, A Little Princess, and The Amazing Panda Adventure.🌪

This and Dante's Peak are my favorite natural disaster movies

This is my favorite movie. I have seen this movie and Clue so many times. All the stars, the crazy action and high stakes. This definitely turned me onto disaster movies. Volcano and Dante's Peak around that time period. Then later, 2012, San Andreas, The Day After Tomorrow. Love this stuff!🌪🌋⚡️⛈️

My top 90’s Films are: Deep Blue Sea, Fifth Element, Groundhog Day, Jumanji and POINT BREAK ❤

Deep Impact is a really good 90’s disaster movie.

The most epic 90s movie has to be Titanic. Other good 90s movies include My Cousin Vinny, The Great Outdoors, Grumpy Old Men, Grumpier Old Men, Sister Act, City Slickers, City Slickers 2, Fried Green Tomatoes, The Green Mile, My Girl, American Pie, Dances with Wolves, Doc Hollywood, The Fugitive, For Richer or Poorer, Ghost, Gettysburg, Hook, Kindergarten Cop, Jurassic Park, A League of Their Own, Look Who's Talking, Maverick, Men in Black, Mrs. Doubtfire, Rudy, Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, The Sandlot, The Silence of the Lambs, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Tommy Boy and Tremors

Born and raised in Kansas. Survived the 1991 Andover tornado. It went 1/2 mile from our house. We lost shingles. Others lost their lives. We weren’t home and weren’t allowed home for 24 hours. Two weeks later another storm followed the same path. We were home and I watched that storm and it was mesmerizing. Feeling the wind blowing hot behind you and suddenly it’s ice cold in your face. Hiding under a bridge(13:00?) is the worst thing you can do. Helen Hunt and Jami Gertz are two of the most beautiful women…. Philip Seymour Hoffman was brilliant in this movie

Grew up on this, my middle brother and I almost became storm chasers, but life happens. Grew up in a tornado ally, see plenty in one as a baby, and lived. lived in the middle of nowhere there are no warning systems. even now. You're going to love this movie.

Ultimate 90s guilty pleasure film. Also some of the best special effects and music of the entire decade.

This is one of my favorite movies. As a kid I was obsessed with this movie. Definitely made me terrified of tornados. It got me into disaster movies. The Day After Tomorrow, Dante's Peak, and Volcano are also good disaster films.

this is in the top 5 of my favorite movies of all time

That was the beginning of my interest in meteorology. I'm 31 now and pretty much nothing changed about that. I love all things weather related, especially tornadoes. I had this movie on VHS and it used play on repeat in my room when I was a kid. It's still one of my all time favourites ❤

3:55 - Nope. That's the guy from Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986). That was his breakout role thanks to it being such an iconic movie and another flick you need to react to.

The disaster film genre first came out in the early 70s... the best of those are The Towering Inferno and The Poseidon Adventure. My favorite disaster film from the 90s is Deep Impact, along with this one. The tornadoes are all completely CGI, which is for sure amazing during this era. I was obsessed with the Wizard of Oz as a kid and I used to have multiple dreams about tornadoes, so when I walked out of this film I felt kind of strange because I was witnessing some of my dreams up on the screen! The movie on Aunt Meg's TV is A Star is Born (1954), starring the original Dorothy, Judy Garland when she was much older.

Twister is one of the movies i saw as a child that stuck with me till now, its just such a great movie

Rewatched this movie a million times...RIP to all the ones we lost from this film.

This is my favorite movie ever!! So glad to sew this reaction pop up!!

This is one of my favorite movies, everytime this comes on a random TV channel, I stop what I'm doing and watch the movie instead.

One of the best disaster action movies ever made! Even though the reception was mixed, it made $495 million dollars against a $90 million dollar budget, and it was nominated for Best Visual Effects but lost to Independence Day. The tagline reads, "From The Producers/Creators Of Jurassic Park And The Director Of Speed. TWISTER. The Dark Side Of Nature." Summer 1996.

The movie Backdraft (1991) with Kurt Russell, Billy Baldwin, and Robert DeNiro is a fun watch. Might be one to check out for a 90s flick. And for a couple different types of film maybe Dances With Wolves (1990) with Kevin Costner, The Fugitive (1993) with Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones, or My Cousin Vinny (1992) with Joe Pesci and Marisa Tomei. Always enjoy your reactions. Keep up the excellent work.

My mother lived through a tornado once before she got married and had us. She lived in the south at the time and was a an adult by then. She said a tree fell into their house. My mom has 14 siblings and only 4 still live there. She is still traumatized from it. She describes the sounds and how loud it was and her surroundings. She was horrified. She moved here soon after. Just listening to the story gives me chills. My grandmother describes it from a parent worrying about her children perspective. She says it was terrifying.! This movie only gave me a tiny glimpse of what it must have been like. Hope I don’t ever have to experience that!

this movie is a classic

When the movie was first filmed, Joe's father survived. The only leftover of it was a production still of the family looking at the remains of the house. Joe seeing the family on the way to the Aunt's house was a partial callback to it.

Ghost and the darkness is a must see 👀

This movie is what inspired an entire new generation of storm chasers to BE storm chasers, my sister included. We're both amateur weather buffs (we're so lame that we send each other screen caps from our advanced radar apps of supercells in _other states_ just to go "oooooooh!"), but she's taken it so much further than I ever have. She reads meteorology textbooks for fun. Literally the only thing keeping her from going to school for meteorology is the advanced math needed for forecasting since she's dyslexic with numbers. She got her certification with SkyWarn and Spotter Network a couple years ago so she really is a legit chaser now. She's just a photographer rather than a scientist or tourist. She's going out to chase today, actually, because our area and to the east of us are forecast to get the shit kicked out of us today. 🙃

Great reaction -- glad that you got to enjoy the movie! Not just an amazing disaster film, but it has great character stories as well. Anyone who has ever been in a tornado knows they are no joke. There are photos online of straw being driven through telephone poles from the force of tornado winds. The debris inside a tornado is far more dangerous than the wind itself.

Speed is another movie by Jan DeBont, the director (who was the cinematographer on Die Hard btw) - same unrelenting pace. 90s movies: Dazed and Confused, Pulp Fiction, Good Will Hunting, Office Space. Enjoyed your reaction! Edit to add Backdraft- the fire eats like the storm does but it's Ron Howard

I remember seeing the destruction after the fearful night of the Oklahoma May 3rd tornadoes - this movie spoke to my weather-based trauma. Every Oklahoman I knew loved it.

This movie is just the best 😂

I don't know how many times I've quoted this movie in my life. So happy to see you reacting to it.

After watching this film I got sucked down a rabbit hole of actual tornado footage on youtube. Some of it is insane.

Last summer I was driving home when rain started pouring and then the sirens started going off (warning of a tornado), so I pulled over into a store parking lot and ended up having to run for it -- hail started blowing all over in a matter of seconds. Just running from my car into the store, I got completely drenched and my legs were covered with dirt from the hail and high winds blowing. I felt like I'd been rolling around in a sandbox. 😆 A bunch of us ended up holed up in that store for about an hour, lol. We had to just sit and wait it out in an area of the store that had no windows (no wandering the store while we waited, lol). My parents texted me to tell me to make sure I was in my basement because of the sirens going off, and I was like, "Ummmm... I'm actually not home right now. But I'm fine! Sort of. So far. We'll see." 😳🤣 Edited to add: I just remembered what my mom texted in response. "Do you have your jacket with you?" 😆🤣😂 I'm like, "No. It's summertime. And believe me, a jacket would not have protected me from the hail." Hilarious. Like a jacket would save me from a tornado. 🌪

I've lived in Oklahoma most of my life... Tornadoes are really something we experience pretty much annually. Travis Meyer is who we always listen to about weather in NE Oklahoma.

Great movie. I saw this at a Drive Inn with my best friend and her 3 kids. And it started to thunderstorm right when this scene was playing.

I really liked the way the love triangle worked out, with no one being the bad guy.

What's truly scary is that there have been tornadoes that have winds of 300mph+, and over 2 miles wide! The 2013 tornado in El Reno, Oklahoma was 2.6 miles wide. The 1998 Moore, Oklahoma City tornado was clocked at 318 mph.

90's movies are the best.This one is a all time favorite for me :)

I've said it before. Longest most interesting Dodge RAM commercial ever made.

You should watch this movie during a rainstorm. It is the only time I watch it now because of the suspense. I love it.

As a Midwesterner, this movie speaks to me on a spiritual level.

My mom is a science teacher so disaster movies are her favorite kind. I grew up watching this and Dante's Peak over and over

Love this movie loved your reaction. Thanks!

All tornado scenes were referenced from available footage at the time. The actual tornadoes and sky replacement was done by Industrial Light & Magic, owned by George Lucas and the principal studio responsible for Star Wars.

FYI, the strength of tornados (based on the classic Fujita scale) was in order of tornado appearance in the movie. AKA, the 1st tornado was an F1, the 2nd was an F2, etc.

Fun fact: Tim (the guy in the denim jacket) is actually the director of this year's Oscar nominated film, Tár. His name is Todd Field.

29:25 just the year before this movie came out, I had been hospitalized due to an explosion and had some burns. when I saw this at the theater, when that fuel truck hit the ground and exploded, I literally saw flames jumping off the screen and washing over the audience!

Yeah, I was 9 when this came out and watched it at a drive in movie theater in Oklahoma on a night with some storms in the area... It added to the experience.

I saw this movie twice in theaters. The first time, in a drive in theater lol. Been petrified of tornadoes ever since, & survived one whilst camping. I love this movie though ❤ I say “Food. Fooood” all the time & no one ever gets the reference sadly

What’s funny is Jonas pretty much admitted he stole the design when he said their unrealized idea meaning he took the idea thinking they’d never get the funds to build it. I didn’t understand during the last tornado how were they able to keep their eyes open to see what was going on. I was out in 30mph winds and had all sorts of stuff blowing in my eyes. Had to shield them to be able to see some.

This is my guilty pleasure movie. We rented it from Blockbuster on VHS, the first day, I watched it 5 times. I watch it about once year now.

Office Space (1999), Throw Momma from the Train (1991), and Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1992) Yes, the last one is a comedy which has a totally different vibe from the TV show.

I saw this in the theater when I was 12. Loved it! But the drive-in scene got me so freaked out! It was dark when we left the theater, and I was a little concerned that we wouldn’t see a looming tornado in the darkness. 😟 🌪️

Was wondering when this would pop up in your feed, glad you finally did it. I always loved this movie because it's not only fun, it's way more accurate than 99% of natural disaster movies. RIP Bill Paxton.

I live in tornado alley and remember watching this film wondering why the sirens weren't going off. Took a minute to realize it was the story of HOW we're able to have those warnings now. Thankfully so because the last tornado that came through our town struck just as the kids were getting out of school. Thankfully they were all safely tucked away in the brick buildings.

Oh my God, this brought me back to my tornado and storm obsession.

Saw this movie in Theaters 3 times when it came out. A great summer blockbuster.

R.i.p. Phillip Seymour Hoffman and R.I.P Bill Paxton two great actors.

If you haven't seen "As Good As It Gets" (starring Helen Hunt and Jack Nicholson), I recommend it! And bonus - it's from 1997. 😊

I grew up and still live in Oklahoma and this movie was big here. Not just because the film is set in Oklahoma nor because it was it filmed in several parts of Oklahoma, but because it includes a lot of notable meteorologists from Oklahoma tv news stations KWTV, KFOR, and KOCO and the writers and production crew worked with actual meteorologists from the National Weather Center in Norman, Oklahoma. The town of Wakita, Oklahoma is only about 20 minute drive from where I live. I have friends that were teens and kids growing up there when they made the film. They play background extras in the film and got to meet the producers, director, and several of the actors. Aunt Meg's house and several other structures were intentionally built to be destroyed for the film while what you see with the brick buildings is the actual downtown of the town. There's a museum in downtown now that's all about the film that came through complete with signed photos from the crew and actors, props, etc from the film. It's not a huge museum, but it's still fun to visit! Once the film was finished, but hadn't been released yet there were lots of behind the scenes things shown on KWTV, KFOR, and KOCO about those stations' involvment with the film as well as the involvement of the NWC, town of Wakita, etc. By the time the film was released in theaters everyone in Oklahoma wanted to see it! Today the Fujita scale has been replaced with the Enhanced Fujita scale, so you'll hear things like EF2 instead of F2, but it's still a scale based primarily on the assessment of the damage, but does include wind speed recordings as well if there are any. We recently had severe weather earlier this week and had some tornadoes hit several spots in the evening and at night. The technology today includes the ability to pick up debris on weather radars, zoom into to pinpoint exact locations of rotation in a storm, detect wind speeds, and so much more than when this film was released. And they're still working on advancing technology so as to continue to be able to provide ever more accurate information and give more advanced warnings. The more time you have to take one's emergency procedures for whatever type of severe thunderstorms are heading your way, the more lives are saved. It's not just tornadoes we're dealing with after all. Hail that can range in size from peas to softballs to grapefruits. Massive amonts of lightning. Straight line winds. Flash flooding. I was raised to be weather aware and to take warnings seriously. I like to joke that Oklahoma kids learn the geography of our state during severe weather from watching tv weather people (typically if we're in severe weather the tv news stations go to nonstop coverage). We rely a lot on the storm chasers of both the tv news stations as well as those of the National Weather Service and our counties emergency management teams. I have a friend that when he lived in Oklahoma he chased storms for a nearby county's emergency management. If you want to see what an F5/EF5 tornado does, just lookup videos of the 1999 Bridge Creek-Moore tornado or the 2013 Moore tornado. Both of those were F5/EF5 tornadoes. The 2013 tornado hit right as it was time for school to be out. Two elementary schools were hit and kids lost their lives. Today most Oklahoma schools now have basements, storm shelters, or safe rooms installed in them (or a combination of all three), but there's no building codes in Oklahoma that require such things be built (whereas in Kansas it's state building codes require most buildings and houses be built with basements). Fun fact: the 1999 Bridge Creek-Moore tornado has the highest recorded wind speed on earth: 301mph (484 km/h). The tornado with the longest track (meaning tornado that stayed on the ground for the longest distance) is the 1925 Tri-State tornado. It was on the ground for 219 miles (352 km). The deadliest tornado, however, wasn't in the US but was in Bangladesh in 1989. It killed 1,300 people and injured 12,000 people. It was only an F3/EF3, proving that even tornadoes low on the scale can still be deadly and should be taken seriously. Great reaction and commentary! Glad you enjoyed the movie. I don't generally like disaster movies myself, but I enjoy this one. Maybe it's because it's a natural disaster I am familiar with. Oh, and when you asked about why someone who chases storms or is a meteorologist would have just liability insurance, it's probably because he knows that generally car insurance companies don't cover damage to your car if it's from the weather (tornado included). When a tornado hit one of my aunt and uncles house in Kansas they had no trouble getting their house insurance to cover the damages, but they had to fight the car insurance company in court to get them to cover the loss of their car (like their car literally got thrown several miles away from their house). The company said their full coverage insurance didn't include damages caused by their vehicle falling from the sky. They eventually did win, but it took several years and now they just get liability insurance for their vehicles because of their previous experience.

My family lived on a farm south of Grand Rapids, Mi . In the early 60's a newlywed couple bought the NE corner lot of our street approx. 1 mile east of us. As constriction finished and painting/flooring was scheduled, a Tornado took the roof of the new house off and sat it upright on the opposite corner. They had the roof replaced but before they could move in, ANOTHER Tornado took the roof off and placed it on the opposite Corner again! The couple decided to sell it and soon bought the opposite corner lot! My dad talked to the husband, he said it was pretty clear God wanted them to live on the lot where he kept putting the roof! I visited 8 years ago when we sold the family farm. Their house still stands untouched by any storms..

I saw this as a kid and couldn't get enough of it. This and the Jurrassic Park VHS were played to death.

You have to remember, in the 90s this was pretty cool graphics...the way they made these look so real. Still one of my favorite movies❤

On her beautiful wind thing ,there are different levels of chimes,. That deep cowbell sound was heaviest,harder to chime, she knew that was her warning❤️❤️

The Helen Huntt cameo in Friends was a crossover from the tv series Mad About You.

Living in Tornado Alley this movie is both awesome and scary. My family was once “chased” by a tornado as we drove. Daddy told me and my brother not to look back. Of course we did. (We were pretty young.) It wasn’t huge but it was dark and closer than a person would like. The car rattled, shook and even lifted it slightly but kept driving. I don’t remember how long it chased us but it was an interesting experience now that it’s not happening.

Watched this movie a hundred times and I still yell "THE DOG! GET THE DOG! every time lol. This is a great movie by the way. One of my favorites.

And poor Melinda is gonna be left alone!!! 😂😂😂 Poor "Melissa" has to deal with nobody remembering her name!!!

Here's my list for good 90's movies you might like, all genres: A Few Good Men, Cruise/Nicholson, drama '92 Thelma & Louise, road trip action '91 Misery, Cathy Bates, horror '90 The Truman Show, Jim Carrey, dramedy fantasy '98 Before Sunrise, Ethan Hawke, romance dramedy (the best) '95 There's Something About Mary, Ben Stiller, comedy '98 Witches of Eastwick, J. Nicholson, fantasy The Game, Michael Douglas, thriller '97 Chasing Amy, Ben Affleck, progressive indie '97 Casino, DeNiro, crime '95 The Rock, Nicolas Cage, fun action '96

"I wonder if this would work with a real tornado?" No. Not with an EF-5. Realistically those straps would have broken along with those pipes and Jo and Bill would have been beaten to death by debris. That just looks cooler for the sake of it being a movie, and it's actually one of the only truly fudged inaccurate things in the film. EF-5s are strong enough to rip up the asphalt from roads and dig trenches in the ground. I'd highly recommend you look up some videos on the Joplin, Missouri and Moore, Oklahoma tornados to see just how much damage that kind of tornado can do. Moore in particular has been wiped off the map twice since the 1990s. Carly Anna WX and Alferia are two really good weather RU-vidrs for that. (The movie uses the F-ratings from the original Fujita Scale because the Enhanced Fujita Scale hadn't been adopted yet at the time. That's what the E in EF means when you hear tornado ratings nowadays.)

I like that bit, "that was very Abyss of you."

People do chase tornadoes in real life as a career, no amount of money could pay me to do that.

Great reaction! I love this movie so much. You should check out The Day After Tomorrow again. It’s a really fun disaster movie that I think you’d like!

My uncle got to meet Bill Paxton and went on the expedition to titanic back in 95 with him which motivated him alot to work with directors to help create the movie Titanic.

_Classic_ nineties action. Perhaps the definitive exemplar.

My family are from Oklahoma. One of my uncles moved to California. When he finally decided to bring his wife and sons, who had never been here, for a family reunion, he rented this movie to watch right before they left. He did it on purpose.

Can we all just give props to Melissa...she felt the energy shift, she understood what was has happening and gently bowed out. With dignity. She didn't cause a scene...she didn't get revenge. She wished him well and walked away.

I went to the cinema to see this back when I was 13. Back then I used to get a movie magazine and there was a "making of" segment and the featured movie that month was Twister. The funny thing was the original tagline was going to be "It sucks" and the producers thought it would put people off seeing it so they changed it to "The Dark Side Of Nature."

Yes, the tornadoes in this movie are all CGI. Despite being from 1996, the visual effects did hold up pretty well!

Legendary movie that I grew up with & partially played a role into making me what I am today: A professional SKYWARN storm chaser for the NWS. Us storm chasers are 1000% passionate about storms, 100% committed to the chase, & yes 100% nuts. I live to chase these storms. I do it to get the warnings out. P.S we seem very serious on the outside, but on the inside us storm chasers we are all about fun & willing to hang with anyone who talks with us! 😊

My dad is exactly like Bill Paxton in this movie. His mannerisms, his temper. All of it. Every time I watch this movie (which I've watched it quite a bit lmao), I can't see anyone else but my him. 💀

I looove this movie. 💜

Now Dante`s Peak, with Linda Hamilton and Pierce Brosnan (1997), Great reaction.
