[Acapelli]

i love this series

[megladon8]

I always laugh when I read that Krista Allen is in something.

She's like Kari Wuhrer - both of their existences rely solely on their chest-boulders.

[Lasse]

[...]both of their existences rely solely on their chest-boulders.

I don't know any of those actresses, but you say it like it's a bad thing. :P

And the first three movies were fun. I'll catch this on dvd one day.

Both of them go topless in just about every movie I've ever seen them in.

Heck, one of the most "known" roles Krista Allen has had was as the big-breasted woman in the elevator with Jim Carrey in Liar Liar.

[Dukefrukem]

I don't know if this is coming straight to video tho.

Does anyone recommend the third film? I have yet to see it.

[Boner M]

i love this series
Indeed. I want one every year.

[Kurosawa Fan]

I'm also in love with this series. I actually think they've gotten stronger as they've gone along, the third being my favorite.

It's a pretty solid meh. They tried to recapture the intrigue of the first and the over-the-top kills of the second, and failed in both regards.

[Skitch]

Well, FD2 was my favorite of the series.

[Dukefrukem]

Well, FD2 was my favorite of the series.

Really? The deaths were a lot cooler and over the top like bacon said, but I like the first one the best.


The plane explosion was awesome. Also Seann Williams Scott kinda got a little annoying towards the end. And I like how they though Alex was responsible for all the deaths. That was neat.

[EvilShoe]

FD2's also my favorite.
Funniest of the bunch.

I haven't seen the first one since the theater, though I have been meaning to.

Seeing the sequel in the theater was so memorable...I was NOT expecting that much gore...I had a fantastic time with that one.

[Spun Lepton]

DO NOT WANT!

[megladon8]

Am I the only one here who doesn't like this series?

I see no difference between these and every other bad horror series out there, like Urban Legends.

[Boner M]

:rolleyes:

I love the absurd humor of the FD series. I don't even treat them as horror films per se, just pitch black comedies.

[megladon8]

Where you see absurd humor, I see...retarded.

I almost negative repped you.

Why would you want to neg rep the truth? Why?

[Dead & Messed Up]

Am I the only one here who doesn't like this series?

The first one is clever and fun and a little more resonant than you may remember. It's one of the few dead teenager movies where the teenagers realize death is imminent, and they discuss it, and it has meaning to them. I think it's easily the best post-Scream slasher.

[The Mike]

I'm down. All three have been fun, and at least it's not Saw.

And nobody better be cuttin' on Urban Legend. That movie owns. :evil:

[megladon8]

I just found that whole "masked killer taking out teenagers" sub-genre that blossomed after Scream to be really, really boring.

It's like someone decided to resurrect giallo filmmaking, but with none of the style, charm or innovative cinematography.

But this one has the charm in not having the masked killer, methinks. It's basically a flick that says "That's right, I act like all the others, but I'm gonna flip y'all by putting some sort of unseen fateful force behind the killing instead of a close friend or significant other of the lead! So there, 1990s! EAT IT!"

Doesn't make it good, really, but it makes it more fun than the normal slasher dreck, at least to me.

Yeah I know Final Destination doesn't have a masked killer, I was retorting to your saying Urban Legend rocks :)

You know what else sucked? Soul Survivor.

First of all....I said it owns. Not rocks. :confused:

Second of all....you're absolutely right. Soul Survivor sucks. HARD.

*high fives*

Fair assessment. I was young, and had fun with it, and now for some reason still give it props. Plus all the chicks in it were hot then. So....I got nothin'.

I have movies like that too, don't worry :)

We all have our reasons. I think half of my love for Scream 2 comes from Portia de Rossi's line:

"Hi. No, I mean that. Hi."

[Dukefrukem]

Well i can see an argument for the first film as being very enjoyable and the over the top deaths and putting Candyman in the movie... and i can see the 2nd film sorta taking over the reigns... but i just watched the third film tonight and it was pretty bad. Like, how was that kid supposed to look up on the internet if something like that ever happened before? people seeing preminisions of people dieing and it coming true.. and then they talk about the pattern and crap... wicked lame and the deaths were too much over the top...

ps- candyman wasn't even in the third film... bs

I don't know if anyone's ever told you, but the internet does have some information on it. Even false or weird information, too! ;)

Yeh but they immediately started talking about the "pattern" and how it skips someone and goes to the next person... something that seems like only the people in the first film would know about... and Ali Larter.

Complete agreement with your complaints, Duke. They found their formula for the series and just stamped out another cookie for part 3. Part of what makes the first one so fun is the characters figuring out the pattern. In part 3 they have the pattern figured out in three minutes, undermining any amount of fun they could have with the story. It's understandable that they wouldn't want to cover ground that's already been covered, but if that was the case, then they needed to bring something new to the series, instead of a tired by-the-numbers rehash.

[Dukefrukem]

btw, this movie is officially called: Final Destination: Death Trip 3D

[Dukefrukem]

There's also two behind the scenes videos here (http://final-destination-4-trailer.blogspot.com/2008/10/final-destination-behind-scenes.html). (spoilers)

Gotcha. Well, it advances the plot, so I'm good with it. Realism is overrated.

Roger that!

Btw, the pics above, why didn't they think of an elevator death before??? I can't fucking wait after seeing these pics!

Wasn't there one in 2?

[EvilShoe]

Damn you, Duke.

[The Mike]

I'm terrified of escalators. This will be AWESOME!!!!!!! :pritch:

God damn it.

I really like that poster.

[The Mike]

The "The" needs to be bigger.

Thes always get a bad rap. :sad:

[Kurosawa Fan]

Maybe in Bizarro World.

Nope. In Normal World.

[Dukefrukem]

Maybe in normal world on Mars.

[number8]

The people of Comedy Land do find it funnier than The Dark Knight.

Trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=muGaikc5qBU)

My mother used to warn me about escalators.

[D_Davis]

I like these movies.

Me too.

This is the first time I've really been excited for 3-D.

Looks awesome, doesn't it? Pity they give away so many of the death scenes in the trailer. I would recommend others not to watch it, actually.

Really disappointed they gave away what happens as soon as they leave the race. Yeah, anyone who is interested who hasn't seen this trailer yet, skip it. Just trust us when we say it's awesome.

[Ezee E]

I will trust you all.

[Dukefrukem]

LOOK OUT!!!!

awesome.

[The Mike]

Rocks from the lawnmower.
Car washes.
Swimming Pools.
Escalators.


All things I've once feared could kill me.

This movie will RULE! :pritch:

[Spun Lepton]

I couldn't resist watching the trailer. Looks like they had a massive budget, doesn't it? There was one very brief moment in the trailer that makes me worry that they're going to seriously mess with the mythology, which almost always ruins a sequel for me.

Now, I could be wrong, because it's just a trailer, but ... when the lead guy is having his premonition, there's a brief glimpse of a screw unscrewing itself on the fence between him and the racetrack. Prior to this, the "things moving by themselves" never happened until Death or Fate or whatever was already looking to take the characters out ... not as a partial cause of the initial accident. It makes me wary.

We'll see, though. We'll see.

Eh, when I saw that I thought it was just loose and the rumbling of the cars jiggled it off.

[EyesWideOpen]

Saw the trailer before The Hangover tonight, it looks fucking terrible. The first one was bad so I never saw the rest but this looks to go to a new level of bad.

[number8]

EWO is obviously not hip like the rest of us.

[Spun Lepton]

EWO is obviously not hip like the rest of us.

Or perhaps ... ironically hip?

You'd be the expert, hipster.

[EyesWideOpen]

It fit right in with the other trailers: Orphan & Sorority Row.

[D_Davis]

Freaky. (http://www.airfrance447.com/06/10/italian-who-missed-af-447-flight-dies-in-car-crash/)


An Italian woman who arrived to the airport late for the fatal Air France flight 447 has died in a car accident, according to ANSA news agency.

[Spinal]

Yeah, I immediately thought of these movies as well when I read that.

[Dukefrukem]

this was the first movie i've ever walked out of in my entire life

[Dukefrukem]

oh yeh, and 3D is stupid.

[Ivan Drago]

this was the first movie i've ever walked out of in my entire life


oh yeh, and 3D is stupid.

Eh, no offense man, but if I paid $9 or however much it is for a 3D movie nowadays, I'd stay through the whole thing no matter how bad it was.

[Spun Lepton]

I've heard nothing good from anybody about this. Can it really be worse than Part 3?

[Dukefrukem]

I've heard nothing good from anybody about this. Can it really be worse than Part 3?

yes. and i dont care how much it cost. i couldn't sit through it.

It's #1 two weeks in a row. I'm sure you can find someone to say good things about it.

"Daaaahhuurrhhh .... this is my first favorite movie this year after Transformers 2!!!"

:D

/Is kidding, of course.
//I'll probably rent it when it's on DVD. :P

I walked out after the third (and most fucking retarded) death scene i've ever seen in a movie.

actually the only AWESOME thing about the movie, was the opening credits where they showed the death scenes of the people who died in the first three movies, only in an x-ray vision where you would only see their skeletons and the things that killed them.

[Kurosawa Fan]

Yeah, this was a huge disappointment. They spent too much time trying to integrate the 3-D into the death scenes. I was just bored. And the film felt like it was a half-hour long. Plus they rehashed a death scene from an earlier film. LAME. I hope they skip the 3-D for the inevitable next installment.

Have the last two done well enough to warrant another?

[The Mike]

They cost about $12 to produce, so yeah. (And the last one made 152 million worldwide.)

[Skitch]

This was TERRIBLE. Wow.

[Dukefrukem]

This was TERRIBLE. Wow.

yup. Like I said a few posts back. First movie I ever walked out of.
