The new Twisters movie poster isn't as stupid as it looks

The internet hasn't been kind to the posters for upcoming disaster flick Twisters so far, with the first drawing ire for contradicting the "don't look back" tagline of the first film, the most recent offering appearing to show the protagonists looking in the wrong direction entirely. But a tiny design easter egg may have just saved the latter from ridicule.

The new poster, revealed this week, shows the film's three protagonist staring into the middle distance in shock and awe, presumably at a twister. Only, the twister is actually behind them. Cue much mirth on Twitter (sorry, X) – but it seems the critics need to take a look in the mirror.
