Final Destination 3!!!
 

I'm going in town and getting this sh!tty movie tomorrow... not because I liked it, but because of the CREATE YOUR OWN MOVIE thing where you choose if they live or die. It'll be cool.

It is not exactly what you think....... I did it over the weekend and not much is a change


-------------DEATH SPOILER---------------------

Remember the goth like guy getting crushed at the carnival? well you get to choose if he moves to the right or left. Left is the normal one they showed...and they showed half of his body afterwards. Moving right just squashes him and you don't see his body. The gore was less in that change

---------------SPOILDER END---------------------


Not much changes but then again I was doing it fastforward. It was a cool idea though

Believe it or not, I REALLY enjoyed this. It was fun, senseless, trashy, and... again, fun. Just what I needed at the time I watched it. Kept my interest, had pretty people, well organized deaths, some nice scenery, and a good twist ending. I know it may be a shitty movie, but sometimes you need shitty movies.

:) I'd watch it again. And again after that. Just not within a few days of each other, maybe a few weeks.

i enjoyed it as well.

...
 

I saw it on opening night and it was good for what it was, an entertaining way to spend a couple hours. Don't think I could watch the whole thing again though on DVD.

It's good. Doesn't touch the first 2 in any way, shape or form but like has been said, it's a good way of spending a couple of hours. However, I was expecting a little more, I kept waiting for a BIG scene like the highway part of FD2 and was a little disapointed when that didn't happen.

I just watched this a few days ago. I wasn't very impressed. Not even close in quality to the first two. Only real highlight of the film is the female lead character(forgot her name). I look forward to seeing her in more(hopefully horror) films in the future.



EDIT: Just for shits and giggles I looked up the name of the actress. Her name is Mary Elizabeth Winstead, and yes, she is doing another horror movie: The remake of Black Christmas. I cant wait to see if they ruin that one. The original Black Christmas is an obscure horror gem.

I bought it,and i enjoyed watching it..its ok, altho not as good as the first 2. i kind of like the ending with the train at the end..sort of makes for a 4th death scenario althogether. (airplane for 1,car wreck/pileup in 2,carnival ride tragedy ,as well as train wreck at the end for 3.) apparantly none survive tho..OR..could it b setting the stage for a FD4???.:confused:

final destination reminds me of the board game called "Mouse Trap".

Yes I see where you're coming from with Mouse Trap.

I thought the film was pretty entertaining on the whole, though none of the deaths lived up to the early 'sunbed' scene (very nasty) and it seems CGI now makes bodies fly and twist without limit - limiting the suspense somewhat in the process and upping the already dull 'wow factor'.

No interaction available on the UK DVD, incidentally. Unless it's a hidden easter egg or something.

or something, it's apparently there

"choose their fate"

Bought it for my girlfriend....shes into the series....im not.....just watched it today....

Wasn't as bad as i expected.....but still pretty lame i thought......she liked the second one better.....shrug....

I just watched 1 & 2 recentley. I enjoyed them especially 2 there were some really cool scenes and it was a good fun movie. I got annoyed by the American Pie and Dawson's Creek guys in the original but whatever I'm a picky bastard like that. At least it didn't annoy me as much as Martin Henderson in the Ring (or anything) or Anthony Ray in the Matrix (thankfully I haven't seen him pop up in anything else!). Shit/Soap actors kinda kill movies for me.... I guess they put teenage girl's bums on seats and pay for shit but a lot of the time it just totally ruins the atomosphere for me.

i always say the freeway scene is amazing - especially for a movie like this one ...

and the death scenes were old school fun - like back in the days of the origional Omen..

Definatley. I thought the freeway scene looked great especially for these days where CGI sticks out like dogs balls in these type of flicks.
I liked the sinister tone aswell because no matter what you believe in spiritually its a inevitable fact you die and you can't change that. Its a fear everyone can relate to and it was cool seeing the characters deal with that.
Final Destination 2 is destined for cult status (as is the second Urban Legend and Valentine) because it was executed well, had a good cast and exceded expectations (I'm sure people will disagree on UL: Final Cu and Valentine but I love slashers and these had a great old school tone that I loved). I don't think 3 will live up to my enjoyment of 2 and the original was pretty predestrian and I doubt I'll watch it again..... maybe the bit with the American Pie kid's head getting fucked up :D

i nthought the 1st one was aiming for more of a young teen audience.

it wasnt very clever and was unevenly paced. The deaths were - as you said - pedestrian.

Part 2 was an almost flawless horror film .. totally unexpected.

i keep making comparrisons to The Omen because back in the day - the best horror movies had 2 or 3 spectacular inventive death scenes that had people anticipating the next horror - and talking about it later for days ...

during the latter part of the 80's and beyond horror filmmakers stopped doing that ... it was just hack and slash ... or - they'd go stupid overboard in the other direction (like the Jason or Freddie movies)

FD2 found the right balance ..

FD 3 was alrite, the sunbed deaths were 'genius' . Most the others were crap basically down to cgi, just like in FD 2.

i personally think they all sucked
