Twister (1996)

Trivia: "Twister" was the first theatrical Hollywood feature-film released on the DVD format. While a few other films had been released on the format prior, they were primarily direct-to-video B-movies and documentaries that were never shown in theaters.

Twister (1996)

Trivia: While he enjoyed the finished film, star Bill Paxton admitted he wished "Twister" was a bit darker and edgier. For a while around 2010, he tried to get a sequel off the ground to deliver this more intense vision, and he was even interested in potentially directing the follow-up. Little is known about what the sequel would have been about, although Paxton hinted he wanted to utilize 3D filming techniques (which had been re-popularized by James Cameron's "Avatar") to really put the audience into the tornado chases. Unfortunately, the sequel never came together.
