just gonna mention that i had a huge crush on Helen Hunt in the 90's...i watched a lot of Mad about You!!! i didn't notice this before but the guy who played Upham in Saving Private Ryan is in this. i was totally blown away when i realized that just now. This was so much fun to watch with you. dont remember if i owned the DVD but i definitely owned the VhS version of this. such a great movie. what was it about the 90's that made movies so great??? i would love to see you compare and contrast this movie with Twisters!!! i feel like there is something missing from the sequel that is worthy of discussion... this was so much fun, cant wait to see you on the next one!!!

i honestly cant figure it out, but 90s movies just glisten different. Is is the lack of polish? the style, the comfort?! I have NO clue

So Twister figures into my childhood/family quite a bit. I first saw it when I was 10 at the drive-in theater in Kamilche, WA. We watched it as a family a couple of weeks after it came out. My brother had already seen it day one. It was a double feature...Mission Impossible/Twister. It was a stormy night, so that definitely made a deep impression on me. It made an impression on my brother, as well. It inspired his love of Dodge Rams...and his desire to be a storm chaser. He uses his main job to fuel his main love of chasing storms. He goes on yearly pilgrimages to Wakita, OK and the museum there. When Bill Paxton died, he was part of the B. P.

I have never seen this movie - I generally hate "man vs nature" stories

I grew up on the east coast so tornadoes and tornadoes sirens weren't a thing. I moved to north Texas I learned real quick what a tornado siren was 😂😂. It's not uncommon for there to be multiple tornadoes in one day. I think Missouri had something like 21 separate tornados in a 24 hour period.

It sure would be nice to watch Civil War while I’m visiting Los Angeles.

I personally think part of it is the still-in-use traditional film making styles/techniques and after the 90s films started filling every second of screen-time with score. Older movies from the 90s and earlier would still often have entire scenes with just dialogue and SFX and only use a song or two as transitional music or as a specific cue. I think after the 90s we now have movies that need /some/ kind of music playing almost the entire time, and now that cameras are higher tech - you get a lot less scenes in movies nowadays that look like someone is actually holding a camera and struggling to keep it steady. *shrugs* It's many reasons but its one I've noticed more than others.

This was such a fun movie to watch when it came out. Although it was a very serious subject, the scenes with the cow flying through the air and them crashing through the house with the truck had me laughing my butt off when I first saw this...😋🤣🤣🤣 Being someone who's lived almost exclusively on the West and East coasts most of my life (born in Florida, raised in Cali, and having lived in NY for over two decades) I've never seen or been around anywhere near a tornado, so it was a very cool thrill ride of a film. However, I have lived through hurricanes, so I know just how horrific and devastating major weather events like this can be. I'm glad I've never had to be anywhere near a tornado...😏 Oh, and while nobody has mentioned him, I thought I would. Phillip Seymour Hoffman is awesome in this, just as in everything he's in...😋

I still haven't seen it! LOL For movie genres I generally dislike, I am willing to give them a go but I have to be in the exact right mood :) I will admit you watching this does have me tempted so if/when I see it, I'll then watch your reaction and let you know my thoughts both about the movie and if I have any responses to your thoughts (I also don't generally watch reactions to movies that I haven't already seen - I feel like I'll miss something either in the movie or that you say and then I'd kick myself

The actress who plays Melissa, Jami Gertz, is considered the wealthiest actor on earth. She and her husband own the Milwaukee Brewers (MLB) and Atlanta Hawks (NBA) and have a net worth of nearly $2B. When she said to Billy, "Oh, don't worry about me...," she wasn't kidding!
