Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!
This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.
It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:
- Something interesting that happened to you
- Something humourous that happened to you
- Something frustrating that happened to you
- A quick question
- A request for recommendations
- Pictures of your pet
- A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
- Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)
So how’s it going?
Went to see Twisters. Needs more tornado, less pointless romance.
Seems to be getting decent reviews. Was the plot decent?
Depends on what you consider decent. Plucky science girl has bad tornado experience, 5 years later she returns at the behest of an old friend. She’s there to science but hello loud but attractive rival storm chaser. The plot you would expect from this set-up ensues.
Ah right. Standard hollywood plot applied to a twister theme. Enjoyable enough if you’re in the right mood but nothing special and nothing ground breaking.
It really needed like 30% more tornado and better cinematography. Oklahoma big sky did not get the screen time it could have had…
OK yeah if you’re gonna spend $150M making a film about tornados, I’d better not leave wishing I’d seen more tornadoes.
