How fucking dare they. Talk about a movie that doesn't need a sequel. Bill Paxton's ghost does not deserve to be taunted like this.

The second I saw the drill going down I locally said, 'why the fuck are you making a Twister remake'. Even pulling out the little wind ball things again. Putting an S on the name like it's a sequel instead of the remake it appears to be.

It didn't even occur to me that it's a remake, awful idea all around I hope it absolutely fails.

A lot of the shots in the trailer looked like shots from the original. And the mapping balls, with the same distribution method, felt the most 'same'. Maybe that's from a flashback, but it is still an unnecessary movie. Why make a new movie/story when you can do a lazy sequel that you hope cashes in on nostalgia.
