Looks like this thing is happening and apparently Spielberg is involved.

Can't imagine this one will be nearly as good as the original. There are just some movies that there is not a good reason to make a sequel of and this is probably one of them. Is Hollywood really running out of new/original ideas for movies these days?

It sounds like another "soft reboot" with female leads. I've heard it will surround the daughter of Bill and Helen from the first movie.

True, but it's been a while since we've had a good disaster movie so the timing isn't terrible on that front.

Ideally it's a sequel in name only and they don't bring back any of the original cast for significant roles.

I'll watch it but the likelihood of it being anywhere close to as good as the original is about zero.

Does the first movie have a cult-like following or something? I liked the original, but a little embarrassed to admit it.

We were traveling through OK a few years ago and our route took us a couple miles from Wakita, so we took a quick detour to check things out. A quick internet search said Aunt Meg's house was there and the town had a Twister museum. We found out Aunt Meg's house had been torn down and a butterfly garden had been planted on the lot. The museum had a sign instructing you to call and someone would come down to let you in.

House at the end of the movie - I grew up in that area. It's still there.
