storm birds
It's storm season and I love the drama, beauty and energy of storms and shoot them every chance I get. Yesterday, the sky was getting dramatic and I was psyched to get some shots having recently watched one of my favorite movies about storm chasing, Twister. It's a movie I can watch over and over and never get tired of it. Because I know it so well, I sometimes have a habit of saying the lines at the same time as the characters or maybe a beat or two before.
"The Suck Zone. It's the point basically when the twister... sucks you up. That's not the technical term for it, obviously."
"it's the wonder of nature, baby!"
"Why do you call Billy the extreme?....Because... Bill is.....the EXTREME!!!!!!!
When eerie silence fills the air as a raging tornado abruptly ends, the scientist called Preacher and I say, at the same time and in the same reverent tone...
"It's the cone of silence" I love that line but it's a fallacy that tornadoes have a cone of silence. It's really a radar term. Directly over a radar tower is a blackout area where the weather readout is blank, it's a visual cone of silence, like my umbrella. But for the movie it's a great line and we don't care too much about accuracy,...it's a movie!
Sometimes I have to warn the characters...where'd it go? it's gone (meaning the twister)
"No, it's not, it's gonna back-build... It's back-building! It's gonna drop right on top of you! Get the hell out of there!"
"Getting yourself killed is not gonna bring your father back Jo!"
"It's not gonna fly, The pack is too light, it needs more weight! I told you it needed more weight!"
My hubby looked up at me perched on the back of the couch with my fists in the air and he said, I feel like I'm at the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Ha! for those who don't know, That's a cult classic horror spoof that was popular years ago to which everyone would go dressed as the characters every night and recite the lines. Imagine having that excitement right in the privacy of your own living room.
