Is it bad taste / karma to watch "Twisters" on Netflix, on a night when much of the country is being battered by a cyclone + declaring states of emergencies? 🤔

* Noticed on Thursday night that they are now streaming it.

* Loved watching it in a cinema for my birthday a few years ago. Was near the end of its cinema run, so couldn't see it again then

* Loved watching the original on there a few months before the new one was released

* I do actually have a DVD set of both original and new films these days, BUT have no functioning disk player I can currently trust + use to play any of these 😅

* Oh, and absolutely hated having to live through the Chc Quakes... 😬

Weather’s starting to get very feisty here in Tāmaki Makaurau, the cyclone looks to still be a few hours from reaching land, might be a rough night particularly for those in the direct path of #CycloneVaianu

Looking at the predicted path it appears that the storm center will pass off the East Coast of Auckland and the worst hit areas will be Coromandel, Bay of Plenty, East Cape and Hawke’s Bay. Hopefully storm damage and flooding will not be too severe.
