Twisters director addresses surprising omission
As a huge fan of disaster movies, I was really looking forward to the release of “Twisters,” the long-awaited sequel to the classic 1996 film “Twister.” Having grown up with the original movie, I was excited to see how director Lee Isaac Chung would approach this new endeavor.
Lee Isaac Chung, the director of “Twisters,” has shared reasons behind the absence of a scene that some viewers had anticipated in the movie.
A newly released film in UK cinemas a few days ago and in US cinemas yesterday is a follow-up to the 1996 disaster movie classic “Twister.” In contrast to recent films like “Ghostbusters” or the “Star Wars” sequels, “Twister” is an independent production.
The director chose not to include any significant nods to the original film’s renowned symbol, despite brief appearances from Bill Paxton’s son and a few other minor callbacks, according to what he shared with CNN.
He remarked, “Everyone is eager for a cow, believing they desire it. Yet, I assure you, the reality of having a cow would fall short of your expectations.”
Whenever I discuss the classic “Twister” film with someone, they’d respond with, “Ah, the one with the giant flying cows, right?” I didn’t relish the thought of creating a remake and having people label it as “the new flying cow movie.” Therefore, I made that choice.
The film fails to address the issue of climate change, a common theme in disaster movies based on extreme weather, according to the filmmaker’s intention.
He expressed that he didn’t intend for the film to convey any particular message, as he believes movies should primarily provide entertainment rather than deliver a specific message.
“I believe cinemas shouldn’t come across as preachy platforms, but rather mirrors of the world around us. So, I made sure we didn’t create that impression.”
As a gamer, I’ve noticed how some games explore the unfortunate reality of disaster capitalism. After a catastrophic event, such as a natural disaster or economic crisis, unscrupulous individuals and corporations swoop in, preying on vulnerable people for profit. It’s a harsh reminder of how some may take advantage during times of hardship.
Twisters is out in cinemas now.
