Twister (1996.) is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen and I loved every second of it.

I love to throw on background movies while I do gradschool work and ended up putting on Twister this morning. I hadn't seen Twister for about 20 years. So much to talk about.Highlights:-The practical effects are fantastic! So many impressive practical sets, from the house collapsing, to the garage at the drive in theater- seeing sets collapse and fall apart with the wind made the action scenes in this movie seem so punched up.-The adrenaline junkie on their team,-The rivalry with the guys in the black cars. Just pure fun- and then they stupidly get sucked into the final boss, er, tornado-"We Got Cows"-Pretty much everything else. The writing is laughable, no chemistry between Jo and Bill (i know there's backstage drama.)-Jo's obsession's with tornados. It is hilariously unhealthy.-The Dorothy and vehicle keeps getting knocked over and destroyed in every tornado encounter just to somehow be fixed up again/replaced. Who's funding all of this?-The van driving through the house blown in front of them.-Quickly dismantling, what I can assume to be, hundreds of pepsi cans and then reforming them to be pinwheels on the balls in Dorothy.-Sacrificing the Vehicle and Dorothy to the final tornado, kissing, running to a torture barn, and then finally strapping themselves to the anchored pipes.-Drive in tornado is by far the best tornado. Then the sister tornado. Then the final tornado. Then the first tornado, then lastly the tornado that goes in and out.​I found myself laughing through the whole thing. Anyone have any thoughts on this iconic blockbuster? via /r/movies https://ift.tt/3fBaUdA
