    This summer, the epic studio disaster movie returns with an adrenaline-pumping, seat-gripping, big-screen thrill ride that puts you in direct contact with one of nature’s most wondrous-and destructive-forces.
    From the producers of the Jurassic, Bourne and Indiana Jones series comes Twisters, a current-day chapter of the 1996 blockbuster, Twister. Directed by Lee Isaac Chung, the Oscar® nominated writer-director of Minari, Twisters stars Golden Globe nominee Daisy Edgar-Jones (Where the Crawdads Sing, Normal People) and Glen Powell (Anyone But You, Top Gun: Maverick) as opposing forces who come together to try to predict, and possibly tame, the immense power of tornadoes.
    From Amblin Entertainment, Twisters is directed by Lee Isaac Chung and is produced by Oscar® nominee Frank Marshall (Jurassic and Indiana Jones franchises) and by Patrick Crowley (Jurassic and Bourne franchises). The screenplay is by Mark L. Smith, writer of the Best Picture nominee The Revenant. Twisters will be distributed by Universal Pictures domestically and by Warner Bros. Pictures internationally.

      I'm actually really excited for this to be tested. If it works, this technology could be revolutionary. Rather than just warning people in the path of these storms, we could just outright stop the tornado dead in its tracks.
      It might fail, but it's damn well worth trying to see if it's even possible.

      I would also like to see if stopping a tornado is possible. In nature, Saharan Dust stops the formation of hurricanes in the Atlantic Ocean because of the drying effect it has on the atmosphere. This dust also weakens hurricanes that have already formed and sometimes causes them to fall apart and dissipate entirely. Both hurricanes and tornadoes need moisture in order to form and operate. I believe this dust may have the same effect on a mesocyclone that has yet to produce a tornado or on a tornado that has already formed.
      It would definitely be worth a shot.

      You can watch his live streams on TH-cam when he's storm chasing. Unfortunately, he get super-hyper and starts shrieking into his microphone, which (for me) distracts from the experience. But he has a lot of fans out there and I still watch him if the guys I usually follow aren't out on the hunt.

      I don't think that moisture-absorbing material will do anything much to weaken a tornado. What I thought of, is lots of powdered CO2 released into a tornado. The CO2 is heavier itself, but more importantly, it's very cold, and so will slow down the updraft.

But Twister is such a classic, it helped boost the sensation of storm chasing and of a disaster movie with characters to care about and root for more than some of the blockbuster disaster films like final destination or something like that. Both Twister and Twisters are great films but the CGI in twisters is great. I don’t want to put the two films against each other, they come from different generations so I think younger people would like Twisters more.

    My mom and I are both Team Dominator fans, and there were a few points in the movie that we leaned over and whispered to each other either "Reed would never do that" (like the reckless off-road driving) or "Reed would totally do that" (screaming and hooting from sheer adrenaline). I'll always love the original Twister the most, but the new one was really a fun ride, too! Grats on all the well-deserved publicity you're getting by association. Never stop chasing!

    Finally watched it tonight. I'm currently working on a Meteorology degree, and I really felt that, through all of the disaster movie rule-bending that is needed for a good movie, they really paid tribute to the entire profession, more than before. A lot of homework was done, the visuals were insane, the sound was *horrifyingly* great, and the little bits of real science and real events were awesome to hear. They had a few pretty heavy references, and I'm sure you know which ones, but I'm glad they went there, it had to be shown. All I needed to see was a Dominator -- maybe D5 should be able to drive off the road, and have the plot armor of a Dodge Ram!

    Reed, you know more than most suprise tornados happen!
    After an active late afternoon of storms, the radar was finally clear. No storms for miles. Earlier storms long passed. Sometime late at night we finally got kids to bed, all warnings, all watches, done with, or so we thought.
    I felt that uneasy feeling, that sense that has saved me once before, but decided to play a game to distract me.
    A bit later the power flickered, then the radio goes off with a severe thunderstorm warning. I began to shut down the game and as I get up to shut off the power to our consoles and tv, a tornado warning goes off. It said our area, not far down the highway from us. Radar indicated rotation, heading our way. A suprise thunderstorm with rotation came out of nowhere!
    I rushed upstairs to get my 2 kids. By the time we got to the bottom of the stairs, the wind was whistling through the windows and door. Our motion light outside kicked on.
    Yet 5 minutes later, it was done. It began to clear up. A piece of siding got lifted but didn't come off.
    Our weather vane, its pole snapped.
    Fact: Fast moving, less than 10 minute tornados can and do happen.
    It's just that no one ever believes us out here, even though the radar picked it up. No one in the next town was alerted, only our direct area was. And our area has 2 radars that overlap at their edges.

The tornado came down my street, went off into the woods, and dissipated all within about 8 minutes. A few years later my town got hit by a more "normal" tornado, and that's the only one people seem to remember. They talk about "the tornado" as if that was the only one to ever hit the town lol.

The steple fell to the ground, multiple damages to trees and other buildings, yet there's no official record of it kept anymore. I went deep looking through all the records for this area, it's not as easy as I thought it'd be. There's officially no records of a tornado hitting the church near us, yet for insurance claims reasons, it would've had to be recorded! There is surving photos of the damages.
      And the town near us, there used to be a recorded tornado, it's still recorded in a history book about that town, as their "Only tornado". Yet nothing in the official records can be found. I'm like, HOW?! The damages was surveyed and recorded, why was it removed?
      Btw, tornado records can only be removed by 1 department.
      And when I was 6 yrs old, I was in a small gym of a childrens home facility place in St. Louis. One afternoon I had that uneasy feeling. I was the only kid who stayed by the exit door and didn't want to play. We did not have cell phones back then, the lady watching us only had a walkie takie, to communicate with the office, and in the office they had poor reception, so getting news was difficult at times.
      There was no severe thunderstorm watches, or warnings or any tornado watches either.
      My gut knew we should not be in that gym. I kept asking the lady for us to leave. My anxiety got worse when the clouds got dark. I urged her to listen to me, we need to go now! She radioed the office. Nothing. Just as she began to call the kids to come over, the rain, hail and winds blasted open the windows above, like high up on the walls, shattered glass falling down unto the kids as they ran, power flickering, sky swirling dark with green, lightning flashes reflecting off the broken glass and rain on the gym floor.
      For being the first kid wanting to leave, I became the last one, to try to help, me and the lady struggled to get the door shut. We start to head towards the stairs to catch up with the kids when full power goes out. Darkness until the red emergency exit lit up.
      1 injury required rescuing to get a large tree off a teenager that had fallen on the building, over her bedroom, smashed through her window, while she was in bed, and an ambulance transport for her. The roof of the gym we were in, torn apart.
      But the official report from that tornado is gone!!
      Reports are being removed for no reason.
      Sharing stories of tornado events still needs to be done.

    I took your advice and resisted the temptation to watch this video first, then went to go see Twisters today. Never saw the original, didn't know what to expect, and as someone who's a nerd about stormchasers and tornadoes I really didn't set my hopes too high. But I was thrilled when watching it at how accurate just about everything seemed! After watching this, I was proud that I determined everything that you did, especially the "twin tornado". I knew that right away it was a multi-vortex, and when the two vortices moved apart to become separate tornadoes I wasn't buying it lol. But it was an amazing film and walking out I knew they had to have gotten real stormchasers for advice.
    I wonder how you felt about them sheltering in a movie theater. At the beginning they did warn each other that sheltering under an overpass was a horrible idea, but recogized they had no better choice due to their car being about to loft. I was surprised no one mentioned sheltering in a bathroom the whole film, but I was really happy to hear them educate the audience about overpasses and basements.

    I was really glad to see the actual meteorological knowledge in the script. When both teams are describing basic supercell dynamics and the use of the proper data on radar in certain scenes, it gave it even more of a sense of realness. Aside from the inaccuracies.
    Loved the movie, rest in peace bill.
    So happy reed and team Dominator were apart of this script.

    @AMadLad 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +11

    I have something to add Spoiler Alert
    The characters in the opening scene did acknowledged that the overpass was the least safest before taking shelter, but they had no other choice since the tornado was coming in fast
    one unrealistic thing is that in real life the wind is capable of blowing out the windows and even like pieces of gravel or dust or even something small can destroy the vehicle's windows, in the movie the windows remain intact despite the winds being over 100 miles an hour, The example of the windows blowing out was in 2013 when the Bettesmobile was about to get hit by a powerful subvortex, the side windows shatters before the camera man took cover and the vehicle got struck
    Another one is that tornadoes can form very fast from nothing to large and violent, such as the Joplin tornado, the tornado when from nothing to a multivortex mile wide wedge in like 30 seconds, also the doppler radar at the NWS refreshes every several minutes so that if a tornado suddenly forms as fast as Joplin after the radar refreshes, it will take a few minutes to update the radar, and once it refreshes and radar reported the tornado, it would've might have been to late for those in the first few minutes of its path

    • @lacko623
      @lacko623 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Also, if I recall correctly, that sudden increase in size and strength happened in the movie when the tornado hit the oil refinery. It might have been an EF2-lower EF3, but then just suddenly expanded into a monster...
      I think I remember seeing footage of that rapid growth, so was contemplating how realistic that scene was in the movie.

    • @jessb9514
      @jessb9514 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      The warning for the Joplin tornado went out 17 minutes before touchdown. 17 minutes may be fast, but it's not 30 seconds.

      @AMadLad 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      ​@@jessb9514 oh, but sometimes there can be radar holes, or it happened in a area that was unlikely for tornadoes that night, or the night itself, such as the Cookeville tornado of 2020. Another thing is that in that the scene, people are ignoring the warning because of too many false alarms, or cry wolf too much, also the people were distracted by the rodeo, so they didn't know a tornado was about hit till it was too late.

    In my area of PA just a couple days ago, we had an unexpected tornado. It was warned after a meso was spotted on radar. There was NOTHING at all for even a minor risk assessment from Binghamton NWS Office. Mind you, I've got a degree in the field as well (bc of the og Twister). It was warned, but after the meso was spotted on radar. A funnel was spotted by a civilian also. If it touched down, we had less than 5 minutes warning. So while its unlikely a storm comes by surprise, it easily still can. That being said, Reed, you know as well as anyone that the issue with night tornados isnt the warning going out, its that ppl tend to be turning in for the night. My area in 2018 got a strong EF2 that dropped at 10pm. No one could see it despite NWS Binghamton putting a risk assessment out that day for the area. The warning went out about 30 seconds before I felt the pressure drop over my house. I did some calculations on the storm and figured that the funnel passed directly over my house and dropped in a straight line 1 mile away 5 seconds later. I didnt even get to my basement as a 10pm at night storm. I was literally laying in bed when my phone went off and darted for the stairs feeling the pressure drop and my ears pop. The shopping plaza that was destroyed thankfully had closed in the 9pm hour so all of the parking lots that would have been full during the day, were empty.

In areas where tornados are common, they never go unnoticed these days but for my area and most other areas of the world, we can still be taken by surprise. We dont even have sirens here and this area is 75% over 65 years old, most ppl here only have home phone service and if they have cell phones, they arent the best as using them like my mother who's 74. So can twisters take ppl by surprise, absolutely. Just not where he is.

      @doublecrossedswine112 I dont work for any weather forecasting agency despite having a degree in the area. The radar indicated the meso which prompted the warning so yea, thats how we knew. But NWS Binghamton which I do look at each morning merely out of curiousity, had no risk assessed for the day. Even the new station mets were caught off guard by it. The warning was radar indicated not risk assessed in the days prior or even that morning. Thats my point, if it weren't for the radar signatures, no one would have known without actually looking themselves or at the sky. Thats my point.
