Don't Chase Tornados

 


Glen Powell strikes again with yet another summer movie, though he is not the main protagonist. That honor belongs to Daisy Edgar-Jones' character Kate, a storm chaser attempting to weaken a tornado. After her first attempt that went HORRIBLY wrong, Anthony Ramos' character offers her a new opportunity. Though they find themselves in a competition with Powell's character before eventually working together. This movie also serves as the standalone sequel to the 1996 film Twister.

This might be better than the first one, and I really like the first one. The visuals and sound affects were FANTASTIC and possibly the best part of the movie. They were absolutely terrifying and made me wonder why on earth anyone chases tornadoes for living. The plot wasn't anything special, but it was at least decent. The acting was good, again nothing special but still good. Powell and Edgar-Jones had a very nice dynamic and I strangely like that it didn't turn into a love story (been there, done that with the first one). Though I think there might've been some implications, which is fine too. I also appreciate that they didn't turn Powell's character (who seems antagonistic at first) into a typical jerk like Hollywood normally does with male characters (in my opinion). We did see that with another character however. Ramos was also likeable enough for me. 

I don't know or care whether or not the movie was scientifically accurate. What I do know is that I had a good time during this movie. It's incredibly fun and I highly recommend it. I do not however recommend chasing a tornado. Seriously DO NOT CHASE TORNADOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for reading.

American Idol 2025 Thoughts: Day 1

  American Idol  has officially reached its live shows so that means it's time to start the commentaries. For those of you who didn't track these last year, here's an explanation; I will be saying my thoughts on the contestants and their performances. In typical 'me' fashion, I will rank each performance to #1. But unlike my normal lists, this will be from worst to best.  This will be starting the following week as today is just an introduction. Our Top 24 has been chosen and they are as follows;     Canaan James Hill (Platinum)             Gabby Simone  Zaylie Windsor                         Mattie Pruitt  Thunderstorm Artis                  Drew Ryn  Che                                     ...

Introduction

Bio My name is Naomi Marie Elidios Chadwick. I was born in San Diego, California, but I currently live in Las Vegas, Nevada. I pretty much have a traditional family, which involves happily married parents, 1 younger sister, and an older brother. I was raised Christian, and I continue to practice Christianity to this day. This is not a spiritual blog but some of the content that I post is influenced by my faith. Every now and then I will post Christian content as well, just not always (except with Billboard ). The picture you see up above is me at the airport with my father after I graduated from AmeriCorps NCCC after 10 months of community service. In response I received a congressional award for community service. I've always been really proud of that. I was diagnosed with Asperger's (a form of Autism) around the age of 6, but I was not informed of my diagnosis until I was 12. I'm very into movies and television (animation especially), and pop culture as a whole, and I...

First Day Of 2024/2025 Awards Race

  It is about that time of year again where Hollywood gives out its most prestigious awards to most of the time the least deserving. But that doesn't mean I'm not gonna pay attention like always. But this year we will be shaking things up a little. Allow me to explain; Here's How This Works: Each year, I will have a target subject I'm rooting for this season. When the nominations for each award show are announced, I will do a small commentary on whether or not the subject has a chance of winning. However, this year instead of focusing on just the target, I will also be focusing on those I think are frontrunners in different categories for the season as a whole, whether I'm rooting for them or not.  I will most likely say a last minute thought the day before the award show. I will be tracking down all the way up to the big dogs: THE OSCARS. The Awards: We will be focusing on 5 awards; -The Golden Globes -The BAFTA's -The Critics Choice -The SAG Awards and Of Cour...
