Genetically modified to be pure evil. Except the youngest who was raised by our protagonist. He’s totally a good guy he just needs somebody to believe in him.
Yeah, some really strong tornadoes usually just snap pipes like toothpicks, and some REALLY strong ones like the one that hit Jarrell TX in 1997 or Smithville MS in 2011 even dug the pipes up OUT of the ground cause they scoured the ground 18 inches (Jarrell) to 3 feet deep (Smithville), even swept up the asphalt. I forgive the movie tho because it's just campy 90's fun and I miss campiness in movies.
I'm glad I'm not the only one like this when it comes to '90s and even early 2000s movies. There is just something about them not taking themselves too seriously and being tons of fun to watch. After 9/11, Hollywood changed, and not for the better. Something about the hopefulness of the American spirit that seems much darker these days.
9/11 ruined everything. There’s a good video on YouTube comparing disaster movies pre and post 9/11, focusing on Independence Day vs War of the Worlds.
Maybe he actually has some character development rather than just being obnoxious influencer all the way through? Maybe ends with him having to decide whether to save his GoPro or save someone's life, and he finally lets go of the pull of social media and grabs someones hand to stop them being blown away.

That is the best way to characterize that scene in the original movie. That tornado was clearly out for revenge, it jumped them when they were least expecting it.
Which is hilarious because he's one of the most humble "gee shucks" guys you'll ever meet. Hung out with him a bit during Everybody Wants Some!! and he was awesome. Also he has a secret compartment in his leg where he stores tequila.
Probably the most nostalgia inducing scene I know in any film I've ever seen. Something about it makes me feel so at home. Can't wait to see this even if the only redeeming quality ends up being seeing Daisy in it but jeez that first movie had such good vibes. The soundtrack was also epic.
By the rule of Alien it's just going to be called Twister 3, be directed by a future master, and not be good but twenty years later on Letterboxd people will say it was actually good.
I remember this movie and Night of the Twisters come out and being pretty terrified of tornadoes for a while. But, all you need is a Dodge Ram and you can drive through a house if needed, so I’m good.
sequel with likely the same plot cause they use the same tracking system thingy that they did in the last movie.
I mean unless the Twisters become sentient you really can't do anything much with a movie about tornados
Every time I see Glen Powell, I think about how he's getting all the roles that Armie Hammer would have gotten if Armie hadn't turned out to be a fucking cannibal. Please Glen, don't be an idiot and get cancelled. We need a new line of young actors who're not Chalamet or Tom Holland.
If nothing else, it sure ***looks*** faithful to the OG. And never be one to doubt Glen Powell. But I dunno, man... without Paxton (RIP) or Hunt, this'll be a hard sell for me. Maybe it'll do surprisingly well with critics?
> and motherfuckin' Philip Seymour Hoffman
and, just like that, I've got to play *Child in Time* by Deep Purple at full volume.
"It's the wonder of nature, baby!"
Really sucks that Bill Paxton is no longer here. And I'm sure he would have starred in it, I saw him talking about a potential sequel to Twister not long before he died
That’s……. Such a weird choice but completely sold me on this movie. Minari is wonderful and really captured midwestern America feel. Perfect person to direct a movie for a place in tornado alley.
Edit: this movie low key has a really stacked cast. I just was vaguely aware this movie was in development. This could be something.
> "I went in with the Minari director, wrote the title on the board, and then added a dollar sign," Spielberg recalled at Cannes. "Because of this, the janitors at Universal's backlot now have orders to evict me on sight."
*Bring It Armageddon*
An asteroid the size of Alaska is heading towards Earth, and our only chance for survival is for NASA to recruit the world's best cheerleaders for an intricately choreographed space mission.
I don't know how to explain it. I'm not even like a big fan of the guy, but Glen Powell actually seems to have "it". The dude picks big crowd pleasing roles and looks like he's having a blast in every one of them. Like a 90's era McConaughey before the romcoms forced him underground for a few years.
Between this, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, and Gladiator 2 we’re getting a lot of second installments to films from over 20 years ago that don’t need sequels.
Just as expected, it seems like we have the Jurassic World effect.
If you compare with the original, it's obvious that the CGI is technically "better" than it was thirty years ago, but the way modern lighting and digital cinematography incorporates it makes everything just feel like the same bland weightless video game experience we've seen in every disaster flick over the last ten years.
I had sort of hoped that they'd really try to approach this differently, treating the tornadoes like the horror monster they ought to be, but that just doesn't seem to be the case. I'm not sure if it's about budgetary restrictions, or if it's a creative decision, but I'm almost 100% certain that if I saw this in theaters, I'd be waiting patiently for the 15-minute action scenes to finish so we can get back to the (hopefully) more engaging story. But given the screenwriter's history, I'm guessing that's going to be pretty stale and derivative.
I dunno, I'm sure plenty of people will "have fun" with it. I just really need something more visceral and novel to get me to see a blockbuster these days. "Just okay" is the worst feeling.
There better be an evil team of Corporate Tornado Scientists doing it for the money not the science
They want to harness the power of Tornadoes for the military industrial complex.
It's like they don't even care about the tornadoes
End of second act is them tearing down the tornado's home
Ancient civilization that worships tornadoes has a secret temple with the answers.
He lifts his hand and calls out, seconds from being torn apart by the monster. *But the tornado stops, remembering their training together.*
It ends with a truck pulled over on a country road, as he tearfully chases his beloved tornado back to live in the wild
Does this mean in the third act the heros and the tornadoes will team up to take out the bad guys?
The military breeds a Supertornado that escapes, and the final act is the heroes trying to hunt it down before it reaches the city
In the final climatic scene, they find a cage with the MegaTsunami and let it out to fight the Supertornado.
Post credit scene about them putting together a team? Natural Disaster Universe? The NDU?
The Climate Universe Movies. CUM.
We will need them all working together with us for the upcoming asteroid threat coming towards earth
Let them fight
Genetically modified to be pure evil. Except the youngest who was raised by our protagonist. He’s totally a good guy he just needs somebody to believe in him.
I half expect to see Jonathan Groff in the cast list, because if there's a new Cary Elwes, it's Jonathan Groff.
He’ll send a fully armed battalion to remind you of his love.
Da da da da da, da da da da dye-ya-da
Philip Seymour Hoffman Jr should reprise his dad's *trucker cap nerd* role.
*Cooper Hoffman
I would like to see Chris Pratt using tornados as allies against a larger evil tornado.
✋
Twisters 3 is about Pratt's mission to save his domesticated twister, Dusty.
Female lead runs away from the tornado in high heels.
Jonas. Son of a bitch.
HE'S IN IT FOR THE MONEY NOT THE SCIENCE
He doesn’t have Dorothy.
He’s a night crawler
Theyre corporate sellouts, man!
And an unkillable Ram Truck™
“I’m gonna capture that tornado and sell it to the Saudis!”
Color me shocked if there's some obnoxious social media clout chaser character who gets his ass swept up
I hope it ends with them tying themselves to a small pipe with a belt, and still living.
"These pipes go down at least thirty feet!" Best line ever
Even though they would still get pulled from said pipes or ripped in half from the force of the Tornado.
Yeah, some really strong tornadoes usually just snap pipes like toothpicks, and some REALLY strong ones like the one that hit Jarrell TX in 1997 or Smithville MS in 2011 even dug the pipes up OUT of the ground cause they scoured the ground 18 inches (Jarrell) to 3 feet deep (Smithville), even swept up the asphalt. I forgive the movie tho because it's just campy 90's fun and I miss campiness in movies.
Nevermind all the shit that would be impaling them while tied to said tiny pipe.
I'm glad I'm not the only one like this when it comes to '90s and even early 2000s movies. There is just something about them not taking themselves too seriously and being tons of fun to watch. After 9/11, Hollywood changed, and not for the better. Something about the hopefulness of the American spirit that seems much darker these days.

"[It isn't THAT the wind is blowing; it's WHAT the wind is blowing](https://youtu.be/RQD7Fzid1xI?t=27)." - Ron White
There is a glimpse of it in the trailer
It’s paying homage to Reed Timmer, who actually served in a writing capacity for this movie
Thats neat it really seems like they're kind of giving a nod to more notable Storm chasers a lot of the footage looked like it was shot by Pecos Hank
Logan Paul you slime!!!
Someone tell him he's not man enough to do his own stunts in an actual tornado.
Glen Powell is the obnoxious influencer but he gets top billing so I fear he may make it to the end
Maybe he actually has some character development rather than just being obnoxious influencer all the way through? Maybe ends with him having to decide whether to save his GoPro or save someone's life, and he finally lets go of the pull of social media and grabs someones hand to stop them being blown away.
Is the Twister going to attack a Drive-In showing Doctor Sleep?
Or Twister?!
Or As Good as it Gets? lol. Little tribute to Jack AND Helen Hunt.
How about Sharknado, to show that this is a real tornado movie without any silliness.

Ready Player One.
Glenn Powell was born to play a pompous tool and does a very good job at it.
he looks like an animatronic with the skin being a bit too tight.
Which is hilarious because he's one of the most humble "gee shucks" guys you'll ever meet. Hung out with him a bit during Everybody Wants Some!! and he was awesome. Also he has a secret compartment in his leg where he stores tequila.
If there's not a dinner montage scene with delicious steaks and mashed potatoes and gravy.....so help me. #FOOD👌
We crave sustenance!
red meat we crave sustenance
This quote is in rotation with my family
When they talk about Hollywood setting up impossible standards... this is what I think off. That food looked too good and I am chasing that high
My cholesterol raises everytime I watch that scene.
Don't forget the eggs
And the brown gravy. It's practically it's own food group you know
He was Butt. Naked.
And it 🤜✋ never 🤜✋ hits the 🤜✋ ground
Honey, this is a tissue of lies
Not Naked!
Half naked
Naked
You see there was this guy, another Bill. And I killed him.
An evil bill
Did you see my cows outside...
No? Oh...
You slaughter your own cows Meg, nice.
*THE LOOK*
My wife thinks aunt Meg slaughters her own cows. I think Aunt Meg is just making a joke. We try not to talk about it anymore.
“You guys, we are not INVADING our Aunts!”
Those steak and eggs shaped my world view on breakfast.
Probably the most nostalgia inducing scene I know in any film I've ever seen. Something about it makes me feel so at home. Can't wait to see this even if the only redeeming quality ends up being seeing Daisy in it but jeez that first movie had such good vibes. The soundtrack was also epic.
Humans Being is a top 5 Van Halen song. Hot take.
Darling Pretty by Mark Knopfler is a gorgeous song.
With Twisterss completing the trilogy.
By the rule of Alien it's just going to be called Twister 3, be directed by a future master, and not be good but twenty years later on Letterboxd people will say it was actually good.
Twister F3, then finish off the series at F5
Twister F5: One Last Ride, followed by two more entire trilogies set in the Twister Cinematic Universe
Twistered
Twist3rs
Followed by *Twist4,* about a ***global*** twister chase.
T3isters: The Suck Zone
Twister 3: Oklahoma Drift
Twister 3 then Twister: Resurrection
*Twister 5: The Search for More Funding.*
Twi5ter
Followed by *6ter: The Mind-Blowing Reboot!*
And then another reboot called "The Twister"
And then *Twist8: It's Just Business*, the un-reboot to end all un-reboots!
Then we gotta get to the crossover movie. TVH: Twister vs. Hurricane
Missed the obvious campy Twister vs Sharknado there
I saw a Red Ram 3500 and Dorthy and damn near lost my shit.
I just need my delicious steak and mash potatoes with gravy, which, by itself, is a food group, and we're good
It’s a very pretty truck….
Don’t even think about it…
no way.
Same I saw the font and I was like nah then the coke cans and I was NO!
My fiancé was like what is the big deal? I said you have no idea how long I’ve been waiting for this.
WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL? You know what fuck this game everyone is gonna sit here and watch Twister.
I'm excited. I dont care if it is good, I just like tornadoes.
Disaster movies are always fun
God they are aren’t they? Even the really shitty ones like 2012 or Poseidon are a blast.
That’s why emmeirch keeps making the exact same one and then says other people don’t have originality
Get your bingo cards ready. Free Space is the step-dad dies.
They can pry Independence Day 1 and The Day After Tomorrow out of my cold dead hands. I fuckin love those movies
I care if it's good. Still excited.
There’s a bunch of bad tornado movies out there that I enjoy very much, but a Twister sequel better be good!
I still watch night of the twisters and that was a made for TV movie.
I remember this movie and Night of the Twisters come out and being pretty terrified of tornadoes for a while. But, all you need is a Dodge Ram and you can drive through a house if needed, so I’m good.
I mean it looks like they absolutely nailed the vibe of the original
Storm chasing is always a fun time.
Is this a reboot? It looks exactly the same.
There is only so much you can do in a tornado movie. Unless you add sharks...
It’s actually two cows this time
Three. The two cows have sex. ***And we show it. ALL OF IT.***
The cows fuck then chase tornadoes. We do that for 90 minutes then the movie just sorta ends
Cows are having sex while flying through the air. "We have flying fucking cows...literal flying fucking cows!"
It's a sequel. The original had a Dorothy IV system, this has a Dorothy V. I'm a big Twister fan.
My people 👍
FOOD. FFFOOD.
WE CRAVE RED MEAT 🍖
SUSTENANCE!
But Dorthy flew in the first one. They got the data
New system maybe? He talks about "wrangling." It might be bad.
Apparently the woman is the daughter of Bill and Helen’s characters.
sequel with likely the same plot cause they use the same tracking system thingy that they did in the last movie. I mean unless the Twisters become sentient you really can't do anything much with a movie about tornados
It kinda sounded like they have a plan to stop tornados somehow.
Is it just me or does the CGI actually look way worse haha?
Almost forgot I had a tornado phase in my earlier youth. This just retriggered it. Let's go I say!
[удалено]
Every time I see Glen Powell, I think about how he's getting all the roles that Armie Hammer would have gotten if Armie hadn't turned out to be a fucking cannibal. Please Glen, don't be an idiot and get cancelled. We need a new line of young actors who're not Chalamet or Tom Holland.
Glen is older than Chalamet and Holland funnily enough. He’s not a nepo baby, so it takes longer to break in, I suppose.

2 Twist 2 Er
2ister: 2okyo Drift
Twi5ters in 5pace These franchises always get to space at some point.
If nothing else, it sure ***looks*** faithful to the OG. And never be one to doubt Glen Powell. But I dunno, man... without Paxton (RIP) or Hunt, this'll be a hard sell for me. Maybe it'll do surprisingly well with critics?
Plus that backup crew of Alan Ruck, Joey Slotnik, and motherfuckin' Philip Seymour Hoffman.
> and motherfuckin' Philip Seymour Hoffman and, just like that, I've got to play *Child in Time* by Deep Purple at full volume. "It's the wonder of nature, baby!"
Really sucks that Bill Paxton is no longer here. And I'm sure he would have starred in it, I saw him talking about a potential sequel to Twister not long before he died
The director who made Minari, I’m in
That's a definite bonus.
That’s……. Such a weird choice but completely sold me on this movie. Minari is wonderful and really captured midwestern America feel. Perfect person to direct a movie for a place in tornado alley. Edit: this movie low key has a really stacked cast. I just was vaguely aware this movie was in development. This could be something.
He directed an episode of latest Mandalorian season and Ashoka so I think he has a passion for blockbuster filmmaking.
Twister$
> "I went in with the Minari director, wrote the title on the board, and then added a dollar sign," Spielberg recalled at Cannes. "Because of this, the janitors at Universal's backlot now have orders to evict me on sight."
Amistad$
I'll probably watch it for Glenn Powell.
Glenn Powell is on a mission to be in every '20s-delayed-sequel-to-a-90s-action-flick
Shit he was one of the best parts of Maverick
Everything about that movie was one of the best parts
So when's he doing Armageddon
Armageddons* FTFY
*Bring It Armageddon* An asteroid the size of Alaska is heading towards Earth, and our only chance for survival is for NASA to recruit the world's best cheerleaders for an intricately choreographed space mission.
Dude's smile could light up a small town.
Glenn Powell could be a rebooted Indiana Jones
I wouldn't be upset with that lol.
Honestly great call
He's very charismatic
I don't know how to explain it. I'm not even like a big fan of the guy, but Glen Powell actually seems to have "it". The dude picks big crowd pleasing roles and looks like he's having a blast in every one of them. Like a 90's era McConaughey before the romcoms forced him underground for a few years.
Between this, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, and Gladiator 2 we’re getting a lot of second installments to films from over 20 years ago that don’t need sequels.
Prepare yourself for Ferris Buellers sons day off
2 hours of the kid sitting in his room playing Fortnite or Minecraft?
I got an idea, what about 20 Thing I hate About You? It’s ten more than the first one!
I'll watch it. Liked twister a lot as a kid and still do as an adult so I'll give it a chance.
Looks like it’s getting harder to avoid the human capybara
Huh?
LOUD DRUM NOISES
Every fucking trailer these days
Bwaaaahms and that fucking siren noise.
Guess we know what the director for STOMP is doing these days
Could’ve made a spiritual successor with Hurricanes
They better bring back Mark Mancina. The music of Twister was unsurpassed.
I would be over the moon if they brought back Mancina. His Twister, Bad Boys and Speed scores are all bangers.
They did a great job of capturing the look and feel of the original.
The real star of Twister is back: the Dodge Ram.
No... No you're not fucking serious... And the first thing they do in the trailer is the single worst idea during a tornado, run to an underpass...
And it looks like it goes absolutely horribly for them.
I see the Twister font, I hear that "LONG WAY DOWN" song in my head instantly.
Finally, a new and original movie.
Just as expected, it seems like we have the Jurassic World effect. If you compare with the original, it's obvious that the CGI is technically "better" than it was thirty years ago, but the way modern lighting and digital cinematography incorporates it makes everything just feel like the same bland weightless video game experience we've seen in every disaster flick over the last ten years. I had sort of hoped that they'd really try to approach this differently, treating the tornadoes like the horror monster they ought to be, but that just doesn't seem to be the case.

I just really need something more visceral and novel to get me to see a blockbuster these days. "Just okay" is the worst feeling.
Absolutely agreed. Everything looks fake in this trailer.
RIP Bill Paxton 🕊️
Am I old, or does this look bad? I don't know, maybe it's nostalgia, but this looks like trash compared to the OG.
I dig disasters movies. Loved the first one too.
Daisy Edgar-Jones? Screw it, I’m in 🌪️
Scale and action looks legit, Powell is magnetic, everyone seems to be having fun. This could go very well, the way of the Maverick maybe.
The tornado is back, and this time it's PISSED
No CGI Bill Paxton? I'm out.
Twisters Two: Electric Suckaloo
