But there are also important differences: “Oppenheimer” was 3-hours long, R-rated and historical, not to mention the collective enthusiasm around its release date companion, “Barbie.” “ Twisters," meanwhile, is a franchise. Part of the push included a country music heavy soundtrack, with a new Luke Combs single “Aint No Love in Oklahoma” which has racked up more than 56 million audio streams. “Twisters” has also whipped up some spirited online discourse and debate, some about the film not explicitly referencing climate change and some about the lack of a kiss between Powell and Daisy Edgar-Jones. But another force is storming theaters next weekend in “ Deadpool & Wolverine,” which is tracking to open in the $160 million range.
