Film Critique (Twister.1996)

I am Dr. Lola Snitzelarion Fitsxhwagen, I am a meteorologist and I major in the studies of Tornado's. I've only ever been in one tornado and was that a big adrenaline rush! My team and I have studied more than 3,800 U.S. tornadoes and I have never seen an F5 so close! We analyzed 3,828 tornadoes that were spotted in the United States from 2000 to 2009. Although 79 percent of these tornadoes came from cells, my co-worker trapp said "18 percent came from nationwide line storms ( which means : a nation wide violent rainstorm near the time of an equinox). In the Midwest the origin and numbers of tornados varied very widely" In Indianna for example.. about half of the tornadoes came from line storms. My team and I are getting closer to improving the ability to predict when and exactly where a tornado will hit. In the movie Twister which I showed a couple of wanna-be meteorologists the showed that people only get a couple of minutes warning before the tornado strikes and cause damage and destruction. this can cause death, if you are dead you are gonna be seriously hurt. The movie is realistic yet unrealistic. The realism is that tornado's can cause total damage. Tornado's are bi,g change pattern quickly and sometimes you cant really do anything but waitto be sucked up and killed by the strength and power of the tornado's eye. The unrealistic part is how can Jo ( main character) and Bill ( other main character) survive all the tornado attacks they kept entering and getting stuck into? Also, they tie themselves to a pipe, they sit in a truck in between 2 tornado's, and they are fine? No damage at all? Nothing? I mean, their car got messed up. Everything around them gets damaged and hurt except them? That is nonsense because when a tornado comes it will hurt you badly you might not be able to move for a long time . .
