  2. The enduring popularity of "Twister" shouldn't be a shock, given how popular it was when it came out in 1996. But director Jan de Bont still finds its influence amazing — there's a museum dedicated to the movie in Wakita, Kansas, and in the '90s, there was an uptick in meteorology majors directly attributed to the film. Ahead of the release of the sequel, "Twisters," IndieWire's Christian Blauvelt talked to de Bont about casting Helen Hunt, working with Philip Seymour Hoffman and the state of blockbuster filmmaking today.
