Planes. Cars and Rollercoasters: What was the Final Destination?

by cj592 @ 2006-02-05 - 17:40:43

I have finished my Final Destination double bill. If you don't know the films the first film is about a teenager, Alex, who has a premonition of a plane crash. His action gets hims and six others thrown off the plane, which then explodes. They have escaped death... and death isn't happy. In the end there are only three survivors.
At the start of thesecond one we find that their was only one survivor from the first film; Clear.
The second film starts with a girl having a premonition about a road accident on the highway, panics and stops the trafiic going on to it. Once again the accident happens and the people on the slip road have avoided death, and death still needs to redress the balance. This time the characters have original survivor Clear to help them.

After I watched the first film I thought i would check out the deleted scenes. On it there was an alternative ending. The alternative ending had Clear giving birth to Alex's son. Now there was no-where in the film that even suggested that they got that close so I am glad they didn't choose that ending! But I wonder if they didnt use the baby idea because they had already planned to use it in the second film. In the second film one of the clues given was that 'only through new life can you beat death' so having the whole baby story in the first film would have meant it would never have worked.

One of the two survivors of the second film was a cop, and I spent most of the film thinking "I have seen him in something recently". I thought at first it was Jake Hagendaas but it wasnt. It was an actor called Michael Landes, who was in the BBC series Love Soup! Love Soup was a fantastic show!

Anyway back to number three out next week. The premonition this time involves a rollercoaster ride! Expect some gory scenes! But will there be an appearance from the survivors of the second movie? Unfortunatley it doesnt seem so. Which is a shame. One thing that makes a good sequel is a continuity from the original. Thats one reason that I liked the Scream movies. Who survived the last one, will they survive the next one?
Still I will wait and see.
