This week your pals The Rabbit Fighters are joined by friend of the show and Mediocretologist, Tim, here to help us ring in the Summer Blockbuster Season™ by going back to 1996 to uncover the deep, unanswered questions surrounding the OG disaster flick, Twister!
Such as:
- What are the hallmarks of a good disaster movie?
- What makes the path of a tornado such a dependable honeymoon destination?
- Can a gang of street tough evil corporate sellouts out-predict a rag-tag group of lovably suicidal interns in a classic game of Pin the MacGuffin on The Tornado?
- Would a local municipality that took the permit process and inspections of local storm shelters a bit more seriously have drastically changed the setup for this movie and the trajectories of its characters?
- What role does dirt sniffing hold in meteorology and is that why Bill Harding (played by Bill Paxton) doesn't have a doctorate?
- How does Dr. Jo Harding (played by Helen Hunt) find the time to keep her hair looking so fantastic tornado-after-increasingly-intense-tornado?
- What is Dusty's job?
We'll also play the game "Real Twister Facts!" Audience members who can answer all questions correctly are automatically fully certified Meteorologists in the states of Oklahoma and Kansas!*
