I kinda of go with the visions are sent to save the person that gets them, for one reason or another Fate has chosen to spare them. But when they blab and end up saving more people then intended, it pisses off both Death and Fate and now they are all going to die horribly because they both have their knickers in a twist.

It's interesting that in these movies, those who have made it to the end and think they have won seem to be ok until they start talking about it again discussing who's next and all. In the first movie, a whole six months have gone by before death is after them again when they're at a café in Paris and start talking about who's next on the list. It's as if death has moved on and forgotten about them until he is summoned by their discussion of him which causes him to come back to tie up the loose ends. I like how the second movie addresses the chain reactions cause by those who survived the first movie's beginning premonition. But it still leaves a few things unanswered. The kid at the end who's killed by the grill was earlier pushed out of the way of a news van. But that van which would have killed him was only there because of those who evaded the huge pyle up at the beginning. Had those people died in the pile up, the news van wouldn't have been there to kill the kid in the first place.

23:16 my theory is that the premonitions were giving to the main characters to protect them, and that they were meant to survive for a reason not the other people around them, but because of human nature, we tend to protect the ones we care about, just like in zombie movies where a loved one has turned and a character can’t come to terms with that, so they keep it a secret putting everyone else around them at risk.

I had seen all of the FD films before, but earlier this year I decided to binge the entire series over 2 days. It really is a near perfect franchise. Especially love how they brought it full circle with the last film. The makers of each installment seemed to care about keeping the integrity of whatever came before it. Hopefully, any new additions to the FD universe will maintain the same reverence for the franchise.

It is amazing all the sign was there (no pun intended) to suggest that it is a prequel. 1. One of the death's victim was quoting *The Sixth Sense* like it just came out. 2 (a) The name of restaurant that guy that had the premonition worked at was on the sign that hit Carver. (b) With the name of the said restaurant being *Le Cáfe Miro 81* The fact that last three letters/numbers is *180* spelt backward, was hinting that we are *back* at the start of the franchise.

I think the way death is portrayed in the films shows that it isn't that powerful. It never manifests something that isn't there, and doesn't make objects move in impossible ways. It also doesn't appear capable of prolonged actions. It only appears to be able to make small adjustments to objects to set up the chain reactions. With supernatural powers we tend to think that the sky is the limit, but there are always limits baked into stories. Otherwise all supernatural horror films would be 5 seconds long, and would only be about everyone being instantly annihilated into dust.

Nah. William Bloodsworth is 100% human. He just has experience with Death's games. From what I can figure out for number 6, is that the backstory is going to center around William and his connection to the games. Remember, in number 5 he had said "I've seen it all before". Meaning, he's dealt with Death's games before. Hopefully, Bloodlines will answer some of the questions.

I really like the analogy of the train track, as the characters in the films are indeed all on a train that inevitably reaches a figurative & literal dead end. They might get some chances to alter the positioning of the rails to allow the train to continue on longer, but the track will run out eventually. Death ensures that everyone gets off eventually, the eternal conductor on the train ride that is life. The implication that death is omnipresent & sentient in FD universe is as fascinating as it is terrifying. Cool video.

I look at it like this: death completed his original design. Everyone that was destined to die on flight 180 is dead. Well, I think it’s fucked up is giving selected people a psychic premonition of their demise like they’re not gonna try to do something about that. No sane human being really wants to die. This just further proves, that the only thing worst than death is waiting to die….💯

I think two possibly interesting scenarios for future films could be either: 1) the visio❤nary sees the start of the accident and steps that lead to it, but they die first, and so aren't sure who's a victim or who isn't. This could even be an incident caused by other people, and maybe that effects rules regarding them (kinda like the killing someone else in 5). Or 2) Each survivor gets a snippet of the vision (maybe unwitting survivors from unseen accidenrs brougjt together, also like the end of 5), seeing their own death, and they have to piece things together somehow.

Well Angels technically wings are closer to Eagle wings. Eagles fly very different than Pigeons. Pigeons wings also have very different feathers than Eagles. Pigeons feathers make a very distinct sound that is surprising loud. Eagles are completely silent. With birds, how the wings are attached, where they are attached, shape of the wing itself and feather placement all alter how they fly. And their range of capabilities. Being able to directly ascend upwards or descend directly downwards, not to mention grab something more than your body weight is something Eagles can do. Plus all the aerial, almost defying flight dynamics, are another thing Eagles can do. Pigeons are agile and can fly long distances, but they cannot do anything I mentioned above. They simply don't have the correct wings to do so. But they live a very different life than an Eagle. Most people can't tell the subtle difference between wing types. And because Doves are a symbol of Christianity, I can see why people would make sense. However, the ways that Angels are spoken about in flight, suggests they would require Eagle wings. The Angel of Death and the Angel are one in the same. It is really only Revelations that demonize death. Most mythology death is neutral. Revelations conflates Death with Satan. Remember, the Book of Revelations is the only book in the Bible that takes place in the future. By God's POV, the Christian's God. Of course he's going to be successful. But that doesn't mean that's what the outcome will be. It is a prediction told to Christians.

Very nice video! FD3 introduced an idea that was briefly introduced and either abandoned or negated: FD3 seemed to indicate that the surviving characters who are fated to die must remain within a certain degree of physical proximity with one another. Towards the end of the film when it seems like we have had a couple of surviving characters, they have gone on with their lives in different locations… until a chance(?) meeting on a subway. And that reunion is what sets an immediate Rube Goldberg machination of death upon them. So if you can ENSURE that you and your surviving friends go on to live in different cities etc… can you keep living? Is the Spirit/Embodiment of Death too localized to follow the plan across vast distances?

When I originally watched Final Destination 1-5, and nobody knew that 5 was a prequel, I thought it was hilarious but a great concept, that 5 ended with the beginning of 1, and to me, I thought when I first seen it, that it was like the concept of the circle of life or infinity. How no matter the path, it will always end where it started. So I thought the way they ended it was perfect. Because it would have been an endless loop that could not be escaped for these people's path and how they we're gonna die. But then later, when they said 5 was a prequel to 1, it made me question things, and wonder if you can partially spot the characters who would have been the survivors from 5 in the first film. And now almost finished with this video, some key stuff have been implemented into my thinking. So I'll start with, before we all knew that 5 was a prequel, I would have said that Death finally closed the Rift, by killing everyone in 5's ending. But that would not be the case here. Hell, it's not even in the same ball park anymore, and makes these movies not understable. Because if 5 is now the prequel story to 1, then it means that Clear or Clare was wrong in 2. Now let me verify this, by saying, with 5 being a prequel, it means that Death was trying to close the Rift during the first movie and not the second one, because he started killing people off in the 5th movie, which is the prequel to the whole series. So that means that 4 is when Death has finally closed the Rift in the 4th movie. But if Final Destination 6 and 7 are being created, are they gonna be a reboot to the whole Series, or continuations to the Series, or implemented into the Series, like how Saw X (10) is a sequel to Saw 1. And Saw XI (11) is supposedly supposed to go after 2. Or maybe even 3. So this leaves many questions open, and no Answers answered, because of 5 being a Prequel, and 6 and 7 supposedly coming out. When I do some research hopefully they will be answered, but I might only find more questions, then answers.

I always liken it to an episode of X-Files called Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose because the guy in that episode became psychic by obsessing over the odds of a certain event that ended in a death and it also plays on the themes of "are premonitions inevitable" and I love that episode and I love this franchise. I've had the headcanon that all the people who have the premonitions are anxious and they get in their head about the flight to Paris, the long roadtrip to Florida, etc. that it triggers the ability to see the premonition.

Obsessing over death leads to embracing a philosophy that revolves around death. All principles and motivations are to avoid a negative as opposed to pursuing a positive. Stoicism is an example of one of these death worshiping philosophies. It says to detach yourself from earthly values because those values can be lost and cause you pain. It's a philosophy that tells you to relinquish control and just roll with it. But values also make life worth living. The last of us episode 3 is a perfect example of what I'm talking about. Life and freedom can be scary, but they're worth it. Really living and simply avoiding death are two completely different ways of life. So will you choose motivation by love (love of values and therefore your own life) or motivation by fear (avoiding negatives and cheating yourself out of happiness)?

Death sending the premonitions adds up strangely. Show the initial death, let them react. Then organize as needed for any taking "the bait." This is why sometimes the premonition happens literally a moment after everything has got speed and momentum or the point if no return being crossed. This happens at least twice(4 & 5 instantly comes to mind).

for me the movies taught me it was pointless in being afraid of every little thing that could happen to you when leaving your house like for example every time you enter a car it could be your last or you could be in a store when some crazy person with a gun breaks in and it will be your last shopping trip but always thinking about and freaking out over every little detail and the countless ways you could die both inside and outside if your home will just turn you into a mess of a recluse obsessed with safety and never leaving their home for anything the important thing to remember is most of the deaths you could experience are actually very rare and easily preventable by either a small non expensive device or by just using your brain and being smart like many of the deaths i can think of probably kill less then 30 people a year

Okay but the creators also said their original plan was to kill both of them on the train - and the only reason that didn’t happen was because only one actor could be present, and they knew if they only showed one dying, people would assume the other was still alive. So the intention of the filmmakers is absolutely that they both died. They want them both to be dead so badly that they literally refused to show it rather than imply in any way that one might’ve survived.

She should have. They didn't break or solve the pattern. Burk was supposed to be hit with the mental object turned into a fire ball but Kimberly saved him, moving the person who is supposed to d1e to Kimberly. And if resesctitation is the solution, Alex and Claire should have lived as he was resescitated at the end of the first movie.

If even death has to have balance, then some force beyond death exists. The premonitions might be attributed to something beyond. I'm glad they didn't contrive a story where they kill death, or even put a face to the "monster."

I believe the premonition is death actually sending them these visions just to toy with them, leaning on vicious. Death has been killing for centuries, what if death is bored and this makes it a challenge knowing in the end each will succumb to death in anyway or form. Someone knowing there own death and fighting to avoid but sees each one falling to deaths hands outs a more emotional shock to the factor and the torment on the individual’s mind just before he dies.

I always thought the vision giver was someone or something good trying to give the survivors a chance with FD3 implying the Bludworth was the one giving the visions and warning the main character. Then in the final destination it was Death who finally found out they could use the visions to their own advantage by giving them and using that to lead people to their deaths. I also think Death is a thinking entity and does actually come to respect some certain survivors like Alex and Claire did actually get like months to themselves where they weren't worried about death same with the protags of 2 and 3. 4 didn't get that respect as they never outsmarted it that was always the plan. 5 was a prequel so the protags did actually get some time to themselves before their end

There are a few things that kinda keep me coming back to this series of movies. One is what if the survivors were to create life before their deaths? Why doesn’t death use things like illness or subtle forms of death? Third what would be the point of “beating” death; humans are not immortal? And finally if death is giving the premonitions; why? For fun, to spice up the design, or was it a simple mistake that it just let grow?

I like to think that death doesn’t give the premonitions on purpose, it’s a result of a lot of lives being taken. Like the characters get signs about whose going to did and/or how but not a vision. The only times there are visions are when a lot of people die. I think death doesn’t give the hints on purpose, it’s just a result of him being around.
