When I was a kid, one of my favourite movies was Twister. When I first saw it, it was utterly terrifying, and created an intense fear of tornados whenever we had a thunderstorm. The fact that I lived in the mountains where tornadoes never, ever occur didn’t sink in for a few years, and losing my tent to a microburst while camping didn’t help.

After I got over my fear of tornadoes, I started to really enjoy this movie, and watched it a bunch of times. I even seriously wanted to get into storm chasing (again, not something readily pursue-able in the mountains) after watching it.

My interest in the film faded for awhile, and the next time I saw it, I thought the movie was patently ridiculous. It had gone from terrifying horror film, to exciting thriller, to pathetic comedy in the span of about eight years.

So, this evening, I was browsing The Nostalgia Critic videos. I don’t normally watch his reviews, because they’re really long, and usually about movies/TV shows I don’t remember. His review of Fern Gully, one of my all-time favourite movies, really rubbed me the wrong way, so I don’t really watch his reviews of anything I remember fondly. But, I saw that he reviewed Twister, and couldn’t resist. This is quite possibly the most hilarious video this guy’s ever done, in my opinion
