I'm glad I'm not the only one. Maybe we should have "Twister Anonymous" meetings.

It defies logic. I even have the DVD just in case it hasn't been on TV recently. And I do watch the DVD too.
Terrible ending? I'm not sure I have ever watched the end. This is one of those films that I will stop and watch pieces and parts, but I'm certain I've never watched the whole thing. But, yeah, the corny lines make it. And, I love Philip Seymour Hoffman.

The ending is over the top unrealistic.

Wish I'd found this thread sooner. My grandniece LOVES this movie. Especially when she was about 6. She would watch it over and over and over until we'd put a stop to it (hide it even).
And then she'd play Twister. Calling all of us by names from the movie - usually I got to be Bill (gender change for him). When we'd go somewhere in the car, she'd rush around as we were leaving, telling us to get the dish off the roof while she'd grab up pencils and notebooks.
She's fixated on tornados, which is part of the interest, but the other part is the quest thing. That's a big draw. Finding the tornado, getting Dorothy to fly. Belonging to the group, too.
She also has a major crush on Dusty.
The farm implement distributor that gets engulfed by a tornado belonged at the time to the woman, and her husband, who is now my niece's assistant manager. They used to live near Des Moines.
The ending IS awful - I don't know how many times I've told my grandniece how unrealistic it is.
But I'd sure like some of Meg's wind art . . .

This is so funny I watch it every time I catch it as well. Its not a great movie but for some reason I always get sucked in. Strange.

That is so funny. I think she may be the youngest to have to join our TA group.

I do really like the movie. There are some things that are over the top....but the ending is really bad...but for some reason I can over look that.

I just can't watch that film without crying. Not at the film, but more on behalf of the set designers and builders who watched there hard worked torn apart after weeks of shooting by gallons of water. lol
