Final Destination Thread

[MichaelMyers]

I didn't see a thread about the Final Destination movies so I decided to make one. A third is coming out in 3-D and could be awesome. I thought the movies were pretty cool. Not scary, but cool. Made me think twice about doing certain things and going certain places. Where did these movies make you not want to go or make you not want to do?

[horrorqueen7]

Yeah the first one was cool - def NOT scary. I am not looking forward to a third. The first one (in my opinion) was fine by itself

[boogeyman87]

I'm looking foreward to the 3rd. One it might be in 3-D.(still not definant) 2. I'm curious about the opening scene. and 3. The deaths and the orignal writer and director are on board. Which is just as good as John carpenter directing Halloween 9.

[Miss Informed]

Wow, the third is going to be good I bet. Awesome

[King Sly Joker]

A good movie that could have been kept to just one.To me the second one didnt live up to the first ,which lead to my dissapointment...

[HannibalBEATNGU]

I thought the first one was ok, but nothing all too special.
The sequel had some of the most well choregraphed death/action scenes in the genre, and I was glad they went for a more fun tone instead of attempting to be dark and scary(as the first did, but wasn't successful at).
I'm really looking forward to FD3.

[MichaelMyers]

The deaths were amazing. I can't wait to see what they come up with next.

[Hall9ween]

I'm looking forward to FD3, they are some fun movies -- that also manage to shock you. I do also agree that the action/disaster shots in the sequel were very well done -- especially the car crash.

I think it might be cool, or could look very cheap doing the 3rd film in 3D. I shall wait to witness it for myself.

Is it still a rumour that the start scene will involve a rollercoaster ride?

!!! That's awesome... just awesome. :D

[MichaelMyers]

Not sure about the rollercoaster idea, but I heard about that too. But I heard before 2 that it was going to be a train crash.

[Bucky-lives]

a third in 3d??? wow i jumped like a high jumper in the first one at the bus scene. 3d could only be better . man i hope they don't screw it up.

[myersman88]

I Made Two New threds about what are the worse deaths in th series check them out!

[Annie]

The first wasn't too bad. Devon got a little psycho on us toward the climax, though, where he's alone in that house.

That part scared me where that chick gets slammed by the bus. Damn!

As far as the second's concerned, it's kinda like the first one, just not as good. IMO, of course.

[KillingStroke]

I liked the first two. Looking forward to the third

[NCamp]

The first one was amazing. One of the best jump movies in awhile when in came out. The second one was ok. Not as great as the first, but the cast was better in the original so what do you expect. I hope the third one is better than the first. 3D should be pretty sweet.

[TheThorn666]

I actually saw #2 before 1 and i really liked 2*gory* and i had to see #1 so i bought it and i loved it, these movies were kewl and makes you wonder if you cheat death what WILL happen?

[KillingStroke]

Could we come up with an own Coroner's Report for Final Destination 3. Write some sadistic and smart deaths we would like to see in the third.

Well you've seen my style of killing. ;) But seriously i want someone to die from a piggy bank attack. Piggy banks are pretty hard these days. :)

[Michaeleon]

I've only seen the original so far, but I'd be up to see the second one and even another installment. The 3D approach is really very interesting- I can't wait to see where they go with that. That's definitely theater venturing material right there. :cool:

The concept of cheating death and the design of it were all fascinating to me.

Well, that would be one hilarious coroner report. Blunt trauma to the skull due to a fisher price piggy bank. :p

Final Destination 3 News from UHM:

The story follows a high school student who fails to stop a fated roller coaster ride that she predicted would cause the deaths of several of her friends. She then teams with a schoolmate in a race against time to prevent death from revisiting the survivors of the accident.

Looks like the rumored rollercoaster plot is true and according to Production Weekly (http://www.productionweekly.com/) James Wong is officially signed on to direct.

Read this over the weekend and it sounds great. At least the first part does. The rollercoaster idea was a favorite and I know a ton of people loved it. I hope its in 3-D, which would make the coaster diaster so much better. Hope it gets rolling soon. Maybe a Febuary or January release next year like the second had.

[hall0weendream]

The rollercoaster crash could be so amazing! I can imagine so many people get killed and harmed. I have very high hopes for this movie. The first was the best and the second was good (laked in acting.) These movies freak me out, I'm scared to move after them, haha. I can't wait. Thanks ya'll for the updates.

[MichaelMyers]

Yeah, I can't wait for this one to come out.

omg, i love those movies and roller coaters. i never seen a horror movie w. one, i dont even know if they do have one or not but it would just be greatness ppl. :D

[boogeyman87]

I cant wait, this has got me excited.


A big update about the film, "HNR reports that filming is set in North Vancouver from March 21st through June 9th and is still
supposedly going to be shot in 3D."

http://upcominghorrormovies.com/movies/finaldestination3.php

[Loomis 91]

I'll definetly see the third one. I like the first two films about the same.

[NCamp]

I would have liked to see Devon Sawa (sp?) in all of them. The second one was severely lacking without him. He WAS Final Destination 1.

[Silverpsycho]

Yeah I totally agree that Sawa played a huge factor on why I liked the first so much. The fact that he was killed off so easily (just mentioning he was hit by a brick in the 2nd) is so weak that it made me mad. This is why I did not exactly love the second one and I don't think I will ever find myself buying it either. However, I am looking forward to the whole rollercoater story of FD3...it sounds like it has a lot of promise and could be great if the cast can pull it off.

[NCamp]

I just hope they start fresh. And that they dont just bring back the girl and cop from FD2, just to tie it to the second one like Ali Larter did for number 2.

[MichaelMyers]

I want them to tie them in again. It would ruin the entire series plot. If two people survive when they all should be dead, that would leave an empty space.

[Silverpsycho]

Or maybe any "leftovers" could die by brick just like it was said for Sawa's character. Whoever dies can't come back and just dies off by bricks. A fresh beginning would be nice since I am not the biggest fan of anyone from FD2.

That idea could work. They will probably end up being in a newspaper clipping that says, "Man and Woman die from food poisoning at a barbeque that also killed a young teen when the grill exploded." It works.

[NCamp]

As long as they arent in this film that fine. They werent all that great in the second one. Im cool with the mortician guy being in it again. He always has an informative part.

Yeah, Tony Todd is in it for sure. They start filming soon I think. Tony Todd confirmed being in FD3 and that he wants to do Candyman 4 but there are problems with that getting made. Something about the rights to the films.

I don't know. I thought the main girl, Kimberly, was good. Can't think of the actressess name, but she did a good job.

[6Michael6Myers6]

I didn't like her that much...when she saw the vision she wasn't at all convincing to me...now Sawa was convincing after he saw the plane explode

Yeah, the problem being that those movies have gone to shit since the 2nd one atleast.

And I agree with 6Michael6Myers6, the girl in 2 wasnt all that convincing in the begining of the movie. Sawa did it perfectly in 1.

I've thought about it and... yes Sawa was much better. But that girl was still good looking.

Two Arrive at Their Final Destination 3
Source: The Hollywood Reporter March 20, 2005


Ryan Merriman and Mary Elizabeth Winstead will star in Cheating Death: Final Destination 3, New Line Cinema's latest installment of the popular horror series, says The Hollywood Reporter.

The story is set six years after the events of the first movie and centers on a high school senior who has a premonition of a fatal amusement-park accident involving her and her friends. When the premonition becomes a reality, those who survive are forced to deal with the repercussions of "cheating death."

James Wong, who directed 2000's Final Destination, is back in the director's chair.

It's good to see Merriman/Deckard back in the horror genre. He was one of the better parts of Resurrection.

Atleast they got a fairly recognizable face for this film. Unlike Final Destination 2

[jmb_052]

If anyone wants to hear something weird, my kitchen looks like the one on the FD 2 dvd menu. EXACTLY the same. When I first saw is, it freaked me out. The blender in the back left corner, the stove with the microwave hanging above it, all of the cabinets are pretty much the same, and they're in the same place, and the sink is the same. Its weird. Sometime ill post a picture.

'Final Destination 3' Cast Rounds Out for Death

Texas Battle, Alexz Johnson, Sam Easton, Kris Lemche, Jesse Moss, Gina Holden and Chelan Simmons round out the cast next to Ryan Merriman and Mary Winstead for New Line Cinema's upcoming Final Destination 3: Cheating Death, which is still supposed to be in 3-D, according to Variety. The film will follow the same basic premise and center on high school student Wendy Christensen who fails to stop a roller coaster ride she envisioned would kill her friends. As a result, she teams up with her friend Kevin Fischer in order to prevent the death of the survivors of the first tragedy. James Wong directs.

Morgan on the Final Destination 3 Accident
Source: Sci Fi Wire April 15, 2005

Final 3 Is A Real Coaster

Glen Morgan—who with partner James Wong is returning to the Final Destination franchise by writing and producing the upcoming third installment—showed SCI FI Wire a glimpse of the sequel's opening disaster, which takes place on a roller coaster and will be shot in a way that hasn't been seen before. "It's not necessarily groundbreaking, but it hasn't been done before, you know, in this way," Morgan said in an interview during a break in filming on the sequel's Vancouver, B.C., set on April 13. (Production started this month and will run through June.)

Like the previous two films, the movie begins with the main character—in this case, high school senior Wendy, played by newcomer Mary Elizabeth Winstead—experiencing a horrific disaster in which she and her friends all die—then realizing it's only a premonition of death. In the first film the disaster was a plane crash. In the second, a multi-vehicle pileup on a freeway. In Final Destination 3, it's a disaster on a roller coaster, Morgan said. It all fits, he added.

"I don't know if we ever successfully pull it off, but Jim and I like to have themes," Morgan said. "And this one, for the Wendy character, is about loss of control. ... You got a roller coaster, [and] psychologists will tell you that's why people hate 'em. Why you're afraid of them. Or why you're afraid to fly. Because you have no control. And for me, ... when I'm going up any roller coaster, I just say, 'I want out.' But I'm not getting out. That's just torture. ... It's unbearable. I'm nervous talking about it. ... If you look at death, that's [the same thing]. ... All of a sudden. I feel that if it wants us, [it's going to get us]. I think that's why the franchise kind of works."

SCI FI Wire viewed a "pre-visualization" of the sequence, or animated storyboard, which takes place on a fictional roller coaster with a 200-foot drop, corkscrews and a high loop. The speeding coaster loses hydraulic pressure, causing restraining harnesses to relax and wheels to fall off. As the coaster accelerates into its various turns and whirls, high school students fly out, fall, get run over and wind up hanging upside down by their fingers. Some die gruesome deaths.

To shoot the scene, the filmmakers will use a combination of an actual roller coaster (at Vancouver's Pacific National Exposition amusement park), computer-generated extensions, wire stunts, computer animation and actual actors in simulated cars shot against a green screen. "It's complicated," Morgan said. "We're going to have two weeks of green screen on hydraulic things, and CGI."

Added producer Craig Perry: "Actors being hung upside down, being yanked out of cars, cars falling, flipping. It's good times." Final Destination 3, which Wong will direct, is slated for a 2006 release.

Sounds like it may be worthy after all.

I wasn't much of a fan of the second so I am hoping for this one to pull through and be an even better sequal.

Mary is looking so beautiful in those pics and I'm glad to see the coaster scene is set at night. For some reason I had this inclination that it was going to be during the day.

No way it would be during the day. It wouldn't be as good if it weren't at night.

I like that its looking to be a film set in the dark - like the original film. Thats one thing I disliked about the sequel - too much light.

[Hall9ween]

The 3D experience could cheapen the whole film, throwing in cheap scares like a 3D bus sequence like the first film -- the bus flying out the screen at the audience, which would just shock.

Or it could strengthen the film, it all depends if the 3D is just going to be used for cheap scares, or good ones.

Final Destination 3 Exclusive: New Name & Date!
Get more on Final Destination | Posted 05.04.05 @ 06:59 pm ]

Although the movie is only half way through production, it looks fantastic; too bad we won't see the sucker in 3-D. Watch for our set report in the coming week.

During B-D's visit to Vancouver, where they are in the middle of shooting the third Final Destination film, we were informed that the flick will hit theaters first quarter of 2006. In addition, the extension "Cheating Death" has been dropped and was only being used for production purposes. Right now it's just Final Destination 3.

In James Wong's second Destination, the film will follow the same basic premise and center on high school student Wendy Christensen who fails to stop a roller coaster ride she envisioned would kill her friends. As a result, she teams up with her friend Kevin Fischer in order to prevent the death of the survivors of the first tragedy.

[slasherfan]

Sounds interesting, and I'm glad there is going to be some variation on the theme. The whole "everybody gets saved, then dies anyway" thing started to get old after FD2.

I'm glad it's not in 3D. If you're going to make a movie in 3D, then final destination 3 would be the perfect choice but I saw Spy Kids 3D and that just gave me a headache.

Wish I would of caught this earlier, but get your first look at the film here (http://www.citytv.com/movietv/). Just scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the MT Classic Cuts Archive..in there is the Final Destination 3 set visit.

[Jackolantern99]

Has anyone picked up the Final Destination books and read them? They're advertised in the back of my Nightmare on Elm Street novels I picked up, just wondering if anyone's gotten a chance to check them out.

Volume 1 is called "Dead Reckoning" and is about a girl and other survivors trying to escape death after they were spared from the collapse of a LA nightclub.

Volume 2 is called "Destination Zero" and follows a girl trying to cheat death and figure out some secret about her grandmother involving Jack the Ripper.

Volume 3 is called "End of the Line" is some story about kids from Europe cheating death in the US...

I'd really like to check them out, if there are positive reviews.

There is a cool on-set video on bloody-disgusting for FD3.
Here's the link: http://www.bloody-disgusting.com/index.php?Show=4403&Template=newsfull

[Silverpsycho]

Hey thanks for that great link MM. ;)
I didn't know that Alexz Johnson was going to be in it! She was in a fun show I used to watch, known as "So Weird." Now she stars in "Instant Star" on The-N. Plus, she is a pretty good singer. The clip from FD3 looks pretty good from what I could tell. I wasn't a big fan of the 2nd film, but hopefully this will really revamp the series for me.

[smokey]

I saw that footage more than a month ago. I thought websites had posted it, weird. Anyways, the film looks really cool from what we've seen. I know I'll love it. I love most iflms, i'm weird that way :P. Can't wait though!

That was the date that was posted on BD. and I don't check every site to look for it so don't call me slow because of BD posting it late.


But anyway,

Five New Pics from Newly Titled 'Final Destination 3'
Get more on Final Destination | Posted 08.24.05 @ 08:53 pm ]

I asked for more and I got more as New Line Cinema provides us with five new pics from the now titled Cheating Death: Final Destination 3, which hits theaters February 24th, 2006. Too bad there's nothing exciting going on (once again). James Wong returns to the franchise, which opens in an amusement park (set visit). The film stars Ryan Merriman, Mary Winstead, Texas Battle, Alexz Johnson, Sam Easton, Kris Lemche, Jesse Moss, Gina Holden and Chelan Simmons. Read on for the new pics and an official synopsis...

The new synopsis reads The fright-filled Final Destination franchise returns to theaters in the supernatural thriller Cheating Death: Final Destination 3. Set six years after the original Final Destination film, the latest installment in the series centers around a high school senior who has a premonition of a fatal roller coaster accident involving herself and all her friends. When the premonition proves true, those who have “cheated death” and survived the accident are forced to deal with the repercussions of escaping their fate. Cheating Death: Final Destination 3 stars Ryan Merriman (The Ring Two) and Mary Elizabeth Winstead. The film is directed by James Wong (Final Destination).

You constantly cut and paste reports from other sites so you can make a post in that certain thread. How many times have you cut and pasted news on X-Men? Spider-Man? Some random superhero film, video game or horror film update? Way too many times.

The least you can do is provide a link and be done with it. Or if your feeling nice enough write an original post restating the mentioned news in your own words. Courtesy for those who are annoyed by your actions.

That is all.

[MichaelMyers]

I guess I'll take my actions some place else then.

You can do whatever you want to do. I'm not trying to force you to do anything. I just had an opinion.

[Draven]

The Poster for Final Destination 3 just came out...doesnt do nothing to me.

here is it:
http://media.movieweb.com/galleries/2940/posters/poster1_large.jpg

[Hall9ween]

Poster looks shit. Doesn't need to have th coaster car in it. It makes it look cheesy.

[theBCshape]

Im kind of biased to the Final Destination series cause the guy who wrote them is from my hometown and went to my high school.

[Slapshot]

That's exactly what I thought when I saw it this morning. The poster has a "Bad/Cheesy-movie" feel to it. The coaster makes it look bad.

[siege]

I liked both the first two films. Everytime I fly, I think about that opening scene of the first film. I didn't even know there was gonna be a third one. I hope its as good as the first two.

[boogeyman87]

I happen to like the poster. Notice the skulls on Kris Lemche's and Alexz Johnson's faces...eerie.

[666]

I dont think it's cheesy at all. I like it ;)

[HannibalBEATNGU]

The poster is horrible, so unimaginitive.

It looks more like a promo for Six Flags or Great Escape than it does for a horror movie.

[Hall9ween]

The poster would be a lot better without the coaster car, and just having the track all broken where the coaster car is now. And maybe have the tagline slightly larger, and fill where the coaster car once was.

[boogeyman87]

The website is up, as well as the trailer. :) http://www.fd3movie.com/

[thetwistedsoul]

I saw the trailer before SawII. I can't wait to see this movie. Underworld 2 looks good too.

[Phatty Matty]

Just saw the teaser trailer when I went to see Saw II. This movie looks like fun:D

EDIT: I see that Chris already has a role on things, I'll shut it.

[KillingStroke]

The movie looks really interesting. Does anybody know if we are going to here something about what happened to Landes and Cook's characters in the second movie?

[Horror Kitten]

The first movie was pretty good. Not exactly what I would call excellent, but it wasn't horrible.

The second FD was not so good. I kinda liked the one girl - the main one, she did a good job IMO. But the whole movie reeked of not having any damn original ideas. It was just filled with gore, and the same story as the first. I know it's a continuation, but come-on give us something to actually watch.

Even so, Final Destination 2 was definitely not the worst horror sequel I've seen, so I give it props for that :)

As for them making a third, I think it's kinda a dumb idea. Actually no, let me rephrase that...
It's not dumb because, obviously they will make money, and as long as it sells it is a good idea. I just have to pose the question, where is the story gonna go now?

Oh wait, I know - 3-D :rolleyes:

they better put it in 3-D, or else it'll be the same crap as the 2nd with different characters. It'll be the only redeeming quality of the film.
Well..It wouldn't draw me to the theatre, but for others it would probably be cool ;)

[smokey]

Its not in 3-D, sorry. People see these movies for the exciting death sequences, sorry to say. If you're looking for an excellent plot and good characters, look else where. The Final Destination series is sold on the gore, not the story. Thats why there was a sequel - well, now 2 sequels.

[kaley]

they should have stopped after the first one...number 2 was no good. the first one was cool though.

[smokey]

The website has been updated, looks real cool :D. I love how they're taking theroller coaster thing seriously, it made me feel kind of sick haha

haha,

I can't wait for this film. my friend was looking threw upcoming films the other day and he told me about this film.

If it holds up to the other two films, I for sure will love this one.

a Roller coaster death does sound very cool. :)

[jmb_052]

I think that these movies are so unblievable, that i cant watch them. I thought that the first one was ok, but the second was pretty bad. When I saw the trailer for this, i cringed.

[Chaosboy]

These movies are all the same of course, but the deathes are sooo creative.........looks like that trend is gonna continue!!! FUN FUN FUN!!!

[Thomas Jay]

I liked the first one better, it felt fresh, a nice mysterious atmosphere and was nice contrast to all the slashers running around. A very good movie in my opinion.
The second was much les special, but much more gory - and that didn't attract me 'cause all the gore is, of course and it's of course good that it is - fake. It was nothing special just puppets being smashed and slit - but I liked the car scene at the beginning of the movie and the menu is nice.
I guess I'll watch Final Destination 3. Will the whole movie be in 3D? Hope this doesn't lessen the importance of other aspects of the movie so that it comes out poor but with expensive 3D, that would suck. But a good horror movie in 3D? That would sound pretty interesting in my view.

the first one IS definately better than the second...in horror films the sequel is always much more gory and bloody, I think. and it kinda ruins it all...

I uploaded the TV Spot :D

[thetwistedsoul]

I don't know about you guys, but I have to go see it.

[boogeyman87]

Thanks for the upload, Jeremy.

[Cruel Intentions]

I wanna she the 3rd in theatres. I have the first one taped on Vhs and the second on DVD. So I wanna catch this while it's out. Interesting storyline because it's not a human form killing it's death itself.

[Moron86]

I'm a fan of the series, and can't wait for the third one. I really liked in the first one that they tried to make the deaths seems relatively plausible, either as suicides or accidents. When the second came out though, it was pretty much "let's try and kill people in the coolest ways possible." And I really like that transformation. It makes the movies stand out from other horror simply for the fact that the FD deaths aren't limited to something that a human or super human character can do. The pervasive fear of death is actually made into a character of sorts, and is magnified to incredibly scary proportions.

[Gooch72]

I was a fan of the first two, both equally as good. I hope the third lives up to the first two.

[The Dark Shape]

I'm seeing the third film tonight. Should be fun.

[joshg]

I can't wait till the third one comes out...I loved the first (81/100), I really liked the 2nd (87/100), and I hope that I'll like the third too!

[joshg]

He's probably going to an advanced screening.

[benluvin]

I liked the first a lot. The 2nd was good, but I thought something was missing in it. The 3rd looks cool, but I'm not sure if the cast can live up. I plan on seeing it Friday, Im sure itl be alright.

[Moron86]

Alright kids, I just saw the third one in an advanced screening and it was freakin amazing. Gore fans will not be let down. I don't really want to give anything away because I personally hate spoilers, but the deaths are fantastic. It didn't disappoint.

[Phatty Matty]

Yeah I had passes for a advanced screening tonight but felt like watching Lost instead:D. I cannot wait any longer for friday, glad to hear good things about it.

[Deckard]

Okay...been busy lately and haven't checked the board out in awhile, but I just HAD to tell everyone that "Final Destination 3" was amazing and possibly the best in the series...the deaths were WILD, the acting was believable, and the story was non-existent...wait, that's a bad thing right...no, actually it just means they spend more time with the death and destruction and less with all the mumbo-jumbo talk that clouded the first two...yea, it was great. See it for sure this weekend...

[Jeanette]

I saw the preview for FD part 3 last night and it looked good. I hope I can go see it at the theatre,

[MichaelMyers]

I can't wait to see this. I got to wait until Saturday though because of work.

[45 Lampkin Lane]

I've read some rviews of people who have seen the film at screenings. They all had good things to say about the film. I'm probably going to see it tonight.

[thetwistedsoul]

The wife and I are going to see it Monday.

[hallobabe25]

I'm sooo seeing this as soon as I can! Roller coasters....awesome, haha.

[Johnathon]

I was reading US weekly, and it gave it 3/4 stars. It didn't even give some of the Oscar nominated films that many. I'm definitely seeing this over When A Stranger Calls. I heard that movie sucked.

[smokey]

I saw the film tonight, and I have to say that I loved it. Now, I must say that I love both films so anyone who hated those ones, probably won't like this one either. One thing I noticed about this film, was that they upped the gore, but took out the story of the other two...but I guess you can only see one thing so many times :P. I am also happy to say that Shirley Walker has revisited the first films score, which was way superior to the sequels silly one. N e ways I'm tired hahha, so yah. Go see the movie! Its fun and really gory :D

[thetwistedsoul]

Change in plans, going to see it tomorrow.

[boogeyman87]

Plot-wise the film kind of gave up trying to string these movies all together with a fascinating and intelligent design that death had and how even though you cheated it, and "brought a new life into the world" there was still one last thing you had to do to get death off your back.

Death really is the end and there's no shortcuts...which is what this film apparently believed in.

But that's not the main picture here. The main focuse is the jumps and the gore. And it delivers to the crowd's thirsty mouths. Kris Lemche was great and so was Alexz Johnson, though she didn't say much. All I really want to say is-

The nailgun death owns. It fucking owns! And did anyone catch the "Lincoln" and "Booth" remarks? McKinley anyone?

[MichaelMyers]

I saw this today and the deaths were awesome. They really do their best with deaths in the FD movies. The music used in the movie was great. All the references to the songs really added to the movie. I especially liked when they played, Love Rollercoaster and Love Train after both of those scenes.

The music was a definant keyplayer here. Just listen to The Sounds- Queen Of Apology when the two girls are in the tanning salon. "This will be the death of me."

Will you be able too with all the snow coming?

I don't think I will see this one, I plan on sitting it out or else I will never get on a roller coaster again. Had a hard time getting on the highway after the last one, went to work an extra 1/2 early to avoid the trucks and traffic.

Snow isn't hitting us until morning. We went and I liked it. Death scenes were great, the kind that make some people HURL!. I am going Aawww Cooool, and alot of people were hiding their faces. Connection and story could use a little work, but it tied in, mentioned both other movies. I would recommend it.

[Chaosboy]

On friday(Opening nite....I think), Final D. II was on TV for the losers like myself who couldn't attend the new one. I must say I had just as much fun watchin' on the tele' as I had when I viewed it on the BIG screen!! I hear the first one is better. Is it a renter or a keeper (I don't usually rent, I usually just buy) ??

I just couldn't get over all that lotto winner guy went thru only to slip in yesturday's spaghetti (sp?)

[Todd]

F3 is an okay movie. I didn't think it was quite as good as the first two, but it wasn't a waste of time.

[Johnathon]

Just saw it and loved it. My favorite new horror movie of 2006. The first horror movie in a while that made me cringe, and wonder how each character will bite the big one. The weight room scene makes me not want to go to weight lifting class tomorrow.

And that Mary Elizabeth Winstead is one big cutie.

I loved the first two movies in the series about the same, and I should be seeing the new one tomorrow hopefully. I can't see the new one disapointing me one bit.

[VoorheesFan89]

The movie was OK. I wasn't expecting to laugh at every death like I did though. I really got a good laugh at every death. I don't know why though. The weightroom scene was the best!

[H5rulz]

I went and saw it last night and again today. This one is my favorite of the three. I have a question though. What is the song's title that the two tanning chicks were listening to? It was sort of catchy! lol.

[Dimebag Paul]

the final destination movies..... ehh.. the 1st one was decent. i didnt like the 2nd one and im not looking foward to the 3rd one ethier. just not a title that should have more than one movie.

Now I'm really not going to see FD3. I had a bad dream invovling that movie. I was gonna post it here, but I put it in the dream thread, instead.

[thetwistedsoul]

Theres a dream thread? How did i miss that?

[Horror Kitten]

It's in the Hang Out ;)

[Lonnie_Elamb]

Yeah, I just got back from seeing FD3, and I defenitly enjoyed it. Good movie, defenitly some brutal deaths, but I still like the first 2 better.

[JOeKER]

I actually liked FD3 better than the first 2. I don't know what it was, maybe the pacing or something.

[boogeygirl]

Ok, do I need to see FD2 so I could fully understand 3? I want to see 3 in a theatre, but really wanna make sure that it doesnt have anything vital to 2, since Ive never seen 2... So are they connected?

Not really. No one in 2 is in 3 so the only connection is really the plot of death chasing people.

It does have a faster feel than the first two.

[Miss Informed]

I saw this last night. I liked it. I expected nothing from it so maybe that is the reason why I had fun. It's a good fun horror movie w/ some great death scenes. I think people would benefit from seeing it on the big screen. It's one of those movies that you will enjoy if you don't expect to much and you just want some entertainment. Obviously, there is no real masterpiece in this film but it's fun. Go to a day show or a rush hour. Don't pay over 6 bucks.

[Miss Informed]

It posted twice for some weird reason.

Because let's face it death isn't going anywhere and it's not like a slasher who survives endless amounts of damage only to walk away.

This is a force that will never go away.

Thats the way I feel about it. Altough I would not mind seeing a few more.

[Hall9ween]

This film was cool. It was basically one death scene after another though, so the pacing was so much faster than the other two. I didn't really think much of the rollercoaster beginning though.. too much CGI. The car crash from the second film was so much better.

I just bought a huge 6 foot by 4 foot poster for this film off eBay for £10 including p&p, that's probably about $6 or $7 I think. I loved the poster design for it.

[boogeyman87]

With this weekends box office Final Destination 3 has made $53,492,000 which surpases the original ($53,331,147) and is now in the number spot for the series. Either this will be great for the series showing how it has been profitable, growing with each installment, or a fourth will likely be put into consideration.

[Chucky Returns]

4th, please

[Chucky Returns]

although the 3rd would be a perfect place to stop, i just hope theres more

You should definitely rent it or if your a bit of a gambler(have you seen the first two?) you could always purchase the Final Destination Thrillogy with all three films included. It's $38.36 at deepdiscountdvd.com.

I've seen the first two and I really enjoyed them, but I wasn't planning on seeing the new one because no one from the first two was in it, so it just felt like more of a cash in than a continuation.

I'll definately check out this one, though. Just so I can at least see the cool kills.

[ASH PLISKIN]

The thing I dont get about this series is why dosent death just make these kids have heart attacks,Or someother form of quick natural deaths??

Because then it would not be a very interesting horror film.

[Franchise]

Here's the spoilers on the Choose Their Fate options. I found them when I wasn't interested in writing it all out myself. Here's the site: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Destination_3#Choose_Their_Fate


The DVD version contains a special feature called "Choose their Fate" that at certain moments in the film allows the viewer to make a decision that could affect the fate of the characters.
Using this feature, alternate sequences are edited into the film, affecting a number of death scenes:
Jason and Carrie: When Kevin flips the coin to determine who sits with Wendy, viewers can choose either Heads or Tails.
The Change: After choosing tails, the movie plays out as it did theatrically, only Wendy’s vision ends with her still in line instead of when she is already sitting on the coaster. She convinces her friends to leave, saving Jason and Carrie. The four of them witness the coaster crash, but then the film ends after about 20 minutes with text information about what would have happened to the characters. Surprisingly, even though they escaped death’s design, death apparently does not target them in the alternate version because there appears to be other people who took their place on the rollar coaster that wouldn't have died if Wendy hadn't gotten her vision.


Carrie: Desperate to "start living," Carrie dumped Kevin the day after the incident. She enrolled at Berkeley, dropping out after one semester to travel the world. Presently, Carrie is a groupie for Doctors Without Borders.
Kevin: After the incident, Kevin's obsession with Wendy grew dramatically. To avoid being slapped with a restraining order dictating he stay one hundred yards away from the Christensen home, Kevin joined the army and was sent to Iraq. Citing "bizarre and erratic behavior," Kevin was discharged after refusing to go on patrol in Basra because three consecutive coin flips landed on "heads." The patrol was subsequently ambushed. Kevin Fischer is presently back in McKinley, staying one hundred and one yards away from the Christensen home.
Jason: After months of intense contemplation and study of the world's various religions, including Buddhism (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddhism), Christianity (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity), Hinduism (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinduism), Orthodox Judaism (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthodox_Judaism), Shiite Muslimism (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shi%27a_Islam), Taoism (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taoism), Unitarianism (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unitarianism) and Yoga (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoga), Jason emerged from his room and founded the Church of Ultimate Beliefs. Preaching "enlightened preordination," Jason and his followers have built a self-sustaining compound in Winnipesaukee (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Winnipesaukee), New Hampshire (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Hampshire).
Wendy: No longer in denial about her "gift," Wendy Christensen changed her name to "Ming". She advices politicians and celebrities and often gives "pro bono" readings to police departments around the country. Last reported seen in Vancouver (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vancouver), British Columbia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Columbia), her present whereabouts are unknown.Ashley and Ashlyn: At the tanning salon, viewers can choose whether the room temperature is set to 73 or 76 degrees.
The Change: A setting of 76 degrees apparently gives Ashlyn enough time to leave her booth to answer Ashley's cell phone before the board could trap both girls. However, when Ashlyn opens her bed, the board knocks her unconscious as she falls on the floor, before locking Ashley in her tanning bed. Meanwhile, Ashley starts to scream for help as Ashlyn lays unconscious. Ashlyn soon regains consciousness and manages to open Ashley's bed, but as she is pulling her out, the glass under Ashley gives way, and she lands on some wires, coursing lethal electricity through both girls.

Frankie Cheeks: At the drive-thru window, viewers can make Wendy honk the horn again.
The Change: Wendy honks again, infuriating Frankie, who promptly turns around. Wendy spots him and as she and Kevin escape, Kevin pulls him out.
This also causes a few alterations to the remaining film. Upon seeing the picture of Frankie next to the fan, Kevin and Wendy refer to what could have happened to Frankie had they not saved him. Later, when leaving the police station, Kevin walks by a police car that pulls up, and Frankie is dragged out of the car under arrest. Viewers are then asked if saving Frankie was worth it, by choosing "yes" the DVD unlocks hidden footage of police evidence that consists of Frankie’s home movies, including what he filmed at the amusement park.

Lewis: Before visiting Lewis in the weight room, viewers can give Wendy another chance to look at the pictures.
The Change: Instead of the next scene beginning in the weight room with Wendy and Kevin trying to convince Lewis of his impending doom, it features Wendy and Kevin walking across the track stadium to the weight room talking about how they will convince Lewis of the danger. As soon as they walk into the weight room, Lewis sees them, asks why they are there, and his head is immediately crushed by the weights.

Erin: Before Ian shoots the birds, viewers are given the option of a kill shot or warning shot. A kill shot returns to the theatrical version of the movie, while a warning shot changes things up.
The Change: Having failed to kill the birds, Ian mutters menacingly that they cannot escape. The film progresses as it does in the theatrical version up until after Ian is rescued from the falling debris. A falling board flips up a stake, which lands on a higher shelf among some pigeons. They fly out into Erin, startling her, and she falls back into the nail gun.

Ian: After Ian stalks Wendy to the fair and the cherry picker is about to crush him, viewers can make him jump to the left or to the right. Jumping to the left leads to the theatrical version.
The Change: Jumping to the right makes Ian completely crushed by the cherry picker, rather than thrown to the side as it is in the theatrical version. This reveals the original ending in which Wendy crushes the camera.

Kimberly Corman and Officer Burke (From FD2): The fates of these two characters from Final Destination 2 are revealed when the camera pans a newspaper in the subway station. In “Choose Their Fate” mode, viewers are given the option of reading the full article about what happened to them. Note: This option only appears if the viewer chooses to let Wendy examine the rest of the map on the subway.

The Article: According to eyewitnesses, Kimberly stopped at a hardware store to ask for directions but was surprised to see Thomas there who was buying a fire extinguisher. The two hadn't seen each other since young Brian Gibbons was killed. At the same time the brakes failed at an unmanned Camaro parked at the top of the hill, which rolled down and crashed into the front of the store. In their effort to escape they ran out the back door, where a large industrial woodchipper was being serviced for a malfunctioning safety guard. Subsequent details are unclear but apparently Kimberly's coat got tangled in the woodchipper's spinning blades and when Thomas tried to save her they both fell into the machine. The Camaro that rolled into the front of the building used to belong to Evan Lewis, another survivor from the pileup who was killed outside his apartment. The woodchipper belonged to Roger Gibbons, who owned the farm where several other survivors were killed and is also the father of Brian Gibbons who was killed when both Kimberly and Thomas were present. Finally, the attending physician who signed the death certificate was Ellen Kalarjian, who delivered a baby whose mother was near the pileup.


It is interesting to note that the article contains errors. Evan Lewis drove a Trans Am, which is simular to a Camaro, but not exact. Also, the highway was not Route 180, but rather Highway 28.Wendy: In the final subway scene, Wendy examines a route map. Viewers are asked if she should continue to examine the map.
The Change: After examining the map further, Wendy sees how it says “End of the line,” then gets the strange feeling and sees Kevin and Julie, as she does in the theatrical version. The train crashes, and Wendy finds herself on the tracks about to be run over by another train. Instead of this being a vision, Wendy is hit by the train, and the credits roll.

Haven't done the Choose Their Fate thing yet but the regular movie was pretty good. I think part 2 was better but all of them have some amazing death scenes.

[Brady280]

I like the choose there fate thing its cool

[Moron86]

My Choose Their Fate options didn't show up the way described in the Wikipedia entry. I did several of the things they mentioned, with only one difference. The whole movie went the same way as the theatrical version, but with the scene of Frankie meeting up with Kevin outside of the police station. So basically, they showed his death, but he came back to life for that part?!?

I'll try those options again though to see if there's any difference. I really hope it's not a problem with my DVD.

EDIT: I tried the DVD on my laptop, and the Choose Their Fates came out the same way described. For some reason it didn't work on my DVD player.

[neverscared]

i have had no luck with blockbuster trying to rent this movie. all of the copies (64 to be exact) are always rented.

If you have a Hollywood video in ur area, i suggest going there. You get them way longer than blockbuster.

[MyersHunter20]

I dont know about any of you, but i thought the 3rd installment of FD was better than the first two. I know part 1 started it all, but i thought part 3 was the ultimate destination

[chubbs]

i watched this on DVD a couple nights ago, and frickin loved it, especially Ryan merriman, and Alexs.

[Wicker Man]

I glanced through the previous 18 pages (and may have missed it) but didn't see where anybody mentioned how much "Final Destination 3" rips off "The Omen" with the scenes of the photographs foreshadowing how someone will die next. How they could just blatantly use that without any kind of credit is beyond me (I also thought using the trade towers with the shadow of the plane was a tad insensitive, especially just to set up a stupid plot device).

I'm a big fan of Morgan and Wong ever since the "X-Files" and "Millenium" and even enjoyed the first FD film, but here they just showed a complete lack of originality or creativity.

I never thought of that Wicker Man but you are right. It did seem like FD 3 ripped off the Omen with those photos and the Trade Towers thing wasnt a good idea to use in my book. That being said though I thought it was a good movie. But boy do I miss seeing Ali Larter. What a babe and its to bad she got freid in FD 2.

I've heard a couple of rumors that there will be a Final Destination 4. If these rumors are true then I would be the first in line to see it. I just finshed watching all 3 Final Destination movies and I think they are all top notch thrill rides and very well done as far as acting and storylines are concerned. So Final Destination 4 would be pretty cool but I wonder just how much further they can go with this franchise? I mean what more can "Death" do?

I will say this and thats that after watching these movies it does make you wonder and it does make you think. At least it does me anyway.

As they say, death never takes a holiday and today could be your day to die.


:yar:

[mr32]

I love those movies

[Kubrickbuff]

First one was good, very powerful but the sequels are the same thing. It's the exact same concept and story just with new characters.

[M.I.A.1472]

My favorite of the three is FD3, just because they got much more creative with the deaths. Story-wise, FD1 was great and had probably the best death in the whole series with the "bus scene". The best cast was FD3 by far with Mary, Ryan, and Alexz. They are really what pushed the movie over the edge for me as being my favorite. I can't wait for 4 to come out, just to see if Wendy's premonition at the end came true...I'm sure it did though.

[Bridgett]

I actually saw FD3 before the others and even after seeing them, 3 is still my favorite. I especially enjoyed the death scenes. Very imaginative.

[Bridgett]

Oh, funny story. Not too long after I went back and watched the movies from the beginning, I was at the bank. That song came on. Someone's behind you or something like that. I started looking around and thought oh sh**. Scared the crap out of me. Now, it's funny but at that moment, it wasn't.

[M.I.A.1472]

Something similar to this happened to me. I was driving to school one day a couple of days after watching FD2 and "Highway to Hell" came on the radio. I almost pulled over to the side of the road it freaked me out so bad. I laugh now when I think back on it.

[Deathbassi]

Final Destination movies are great
i seen each one more then 100 times

[thetwistedsoul]

That is 600 hours of your life. I would strongly suggest therapy...........

[M.I.A.1472]

I seriously doubt you've actually watch all three 100 times. I love the movies, I'm a HUGE fan of them but I haven't even watched them that many times.

[coryorton]

The 2nd is the best of the 3...I find this series comparable to the Saw's (not in story or such), but in the fact that each time I hear about a new one being made, I get worried/angried and "know" it'll suck,and I always wind up digging the hell out of them (such as the case with FD2 and FD3).

I can easily be proved wrong again with this series, but I think the trilogy we have should be all...

[wendy lea]

I love the FD movie and I was shock to see the thing on FD3 the control
your fate thing at the end about what happen to the 2 who lived in the FD
2 the paper that shock me. And everything about doing that is cool I wish
all horror movie we can do that it fun.

[Jameslofton]

This has probably already been said in this thread, but this franchise needs to die. They cant bring anything fresh to the series. They'll never top 2, and 3 was as predictable as a sunset. Simply, they are out of ideas. The Saw franchise is about to suffer the same fate as this one as well.

[myersfan1348]

I like the third one the most, the kills were pretty gruesome. The beginning scene in part 2 was awesome too, the highway scene. I would love to see another one soon!

[Bridgett]

I have these on dvd but have not yet used the control your fate on FD3. I just might go get that one out tonight...
