That Time A Real Oklahoma Storm Totally Destroyed The Twisters Set Right As The Movie Was Going To Fake A Major Storm

When Jan de Bont’s Twister was released in May of 1996, disaster movies were on the precipice of a huge comeback, a renaissance they hadn’t seen since the 1970s. Independence Day arrived in July, 1997 saw double volcano movies in Dante’s Peak and Volcano and 1998 was another duel, this one of asteroids, as Deep Impact and Armageddon carved out huge chunks of box office success. And of course, 1997’s Titanic steered its way to two billion dollars and 11 Oscars. Their popularity ambled through the 2000s, but with much less heft, and although a smattering came after, none really made an imprint like those films did.

(MA) Meet Winks, an adorable and incredibly strong puppy with a heartbreaking origin. Winks was found unmoving on the side of a road with severe injuries. He had several very infected wounds and was barely holding on when his rescuers rushed him to the vet. Once there, x-rays revealed the horrifying truth that Winks had been shot numerous times around his face and neck. These injuries resulted in him having his eye removed. Despite that, Winks has made a miraculous and full recovery. He certainly does not let his handicap slow him down at his new foster home. Winks was truly given a second chance at life, and now all he needs is a family to call his own.

The new follow-up to Universal’s 1996 disaster movie is a near-perfect summer blockbuster that will blow you away. Here’s our “Twisters” movie review. I was 10 years old when the original “Twister” was released in theaters in May of 1996. Growing up in the southern part of what is called Tornado Alley just about 30 miles from the Oklahoma border, I had a real fear of what the weather could do. But something about that movie, from the thrill of watching tornadoes tear across Oklahoma to watching this team of storm chasers get as close as they could to better understand nature’s fury, ignited a fascination and love for Mother Nature that I still have to this day.

‘Twisters’ movie review from someone who grew up in Tornado Alley

What does it take to tame a tornado? That’s the scientific conundrum swirling through the plot of the new weather disaster film Twisters, which hits U.S. theaters July 19. In this standalone sequel to the 1996 box office smash Twister, we follow Kate, played by Daisy Edgar-Jones, as she returns to storm chasing five years after surviving a terrible accident in the field. Her former colleague Javi, played by Anthony Ramos, convinces her to join his team collecting tornado data, and they wind up racing to the scene against popular social media star Tyler, portrayed by Glen Powell, and his adrenaline-fueled storm chasing team.
