Twister (1996)

[lionkinglover]

Has anyone else on My lion King seen this movie? I remember watching it all the Time when I was a kid, We had it on VHS. :p I remember being fascinated with Weather and Tornadoes after I saw the movie. I used to have it on DVD a couple of years back, but It got scratched because I was little. :P The VHS tape is worn out. xD If anyone does not know about the movie, here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twister_%281996_film%29

Here are some of the Posters too : http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/a/a5/Twistermovieposter.jpg

Lol yes. xD I was too lazy to rewrite it again. xD You should see the movie though. :p It's a classic. :D

Never seen the movie STM ? Culture shock o_O lol

I have seen it many times, I love it. I don't like those "fake made for TV movies" about things like that, but Jan de Bont is a great director and did a great job with this movie.

I agree. :) I really don't like many of those movies that are like that, but Twister was different for me. xD I loved the Effects in the movie.:p

Ooooooh, I love this movie - I saw it in the cinema at least 3 times and now own it on DVD.
...which is funny 'cause I have an intense fear of tornados, despite having never lived in a tornado zone. Up until I saw this movie, I had talked myself into the unrealistic belief that tornados didn't happen at night. Silly silly Dare. Twister destroyed that bubble...thanks, Twister.
:P

Granted, I know it's not scientifically accurate and the tornados "growling" make me laugh, but the dialogue never ceases to amuse.
Special effects aren't too bad either.

I remember seeing this movie...and I remember liking it! I never thought of it as a horror....more of a thriller/action movie. Then again that's how I felt about Jurassic Park as a kid too, so maybe I'm not a good judge. x3

I love this movie too. :D I used to have it on VHS and DVD, but the DVD got lost, and the VHS was worn out from when I was little. I remember showing my classmates my VHS tape of it in Kindergarten and telling everyone how much I loved that movie. I was 3 or 4 when my dad showed it the movie to me. I'm scared of Tornadoes and Lightning. (Well, Tornadoes if they are anywhere near me.) This movie had me Fascinated with Tornadoes. Yeah Tornadoes at night are scary. :o The beginning of the movie I always skipped, because still to this day, I'm scared of that part. I agree. I don't care how unrealistic this movie is, I'll always love this movie.

Yeah same here. :) You are not alone. Never seen Jurassic park. Should though.

I believe I've seen it, and I remember not liking it at all. It probably partly scared me and I think I partly thought it was just badly done :p

That's fine with me. Not everyone has to like it. :p This movie, I loved so much.

:lol: I can't see every movie ever made. To be honest I never even heard of this movie. :confused: maybe if it ever is on Netflix or already is there I add it on the queue.

This movie was such a huge thing when it came out back in the days. If you like that kind of stuff, watch it, the special effects, cast, all amazing, and don't ever watch those ugly made for tv movies about twisters and such which are filmed with a shaky hand, they blow -_-

Lol I can't either. Netfix sadly does not have it for instant. Amazon does, and they have an Instant streaming thing too. They have were you can rent the movie as well,

I agree with you all the way. It may not be well known much today, but my dad said back in the day, it was popular. xD The movie must have been really great for me to wore out both my DVD and VHS of it. xD :D

Have to say the best film I ever watch in the late 90's. I love it to death when someone mention that they really like the movie.

[Guntur]

All I can remember is/was this was the last movie I watched in Malacca (My personal Pride Rock) before moving to the Capital City, I have some sentimental value that I have on this movie.

Definitely love the every aspect of the movie, the drama, the actions, and the ending romance thing. This movie also introduced me to watch The Shining, which was featured at the drive in movie scene before the tornado rip off the theater.
