It doesn't hold up. I watched it last night because I was in the mood for a 90's kino and it was ok but the effects were so bad it was distracting. Normally I don't care about the quality of effects but for this particular film it was such a central piece that it really detracted from the experience.
Anybody got any suggestions for a 90s kino to watch tonight?
bamp
fargo or big leboswki
fun fact: the computer networking conglomerate F5 networks named itself as such partly because of the popularity of Twister during the company’s infancy, since F5 was the most powerful tornado

I showed this movie to my 8 year old nephew to get him psyched for tornado season when he visited me in the Midwest. He told me they call the big tornadoes an F5 because you say the F word 5 times when you see it coming. Good joke.

Twister was great. I watched it in the theater when it came out stoned off my ass. Perfect movie for it back then.
Try the other disaster flick that came out around that time. Deep Impact
BASED FOOD POSTER!!!!!!!!!!!!
if user is complaining about cgi not holding up I do not recommend jumanji. the movie is good and fun but the cgi is comparable to twister
Is there an F5?
Congo came out the year before Twister and while I still consider it to be the worst movie I’ve ever seen in a theater, and I was just a kid when I saw it, I like watching it now because it’s so bad it’s good.
>conversation about fujita scale up to F4
>Is..is there an F5?
>*drops fork*
>whole room is stunned someone would ask whether an F5 might come after F4
>f..f..finger of god
What did they mean by this?
It needs a comfy remake from a director that would care about this sort of stuff. Someone they'd give a budget to, and not something that'd look like current natural disaster movies like Geostorm.
>oh look, it’s a FINGER OF GOD scene
WHEN I WANTCHUR OPINION I'LL GIVE IT TO YEH
Also what was his fucking problem?
Hollywood can't do disaster movies without raising the stakes to a comical level. Instead of a group of scientists tracking and studying tornadoes terrorizing the midwest for a couple days the movie would be about super monster E X T R E M E tornadoes threatening to destroy every major city in the world.
>Hollywood can't do disaster movies anymore**
based young philip seymour hoffman
also helen hunt was my crush for most of the 90s so seeing her flappy tits here was pretty good.
>Anybody got any suggestions for a 90s kino to watch tonight?
The Corrupter. Chow Yun Fat and ol' Marky Mark.
Also it's just past the 90s but Romeo Must Die has that nostalgic feeling to me.
this is a good list
