It could be just because I have been playing Matt's Puzzler's here on CHUD, and my mind has become a tiny bit sharper from that exercise, but I think I sense a pattern.

I just hope the Rube Goldberg-esque deaths are more creative than part IV. Besides the NASCAR crashes I strugge to remember any of them (something to do with a cinema in a shopping mall??)

'Suspension bridge collapse' he says? Interesting...

I'd love to see a sequel to Final Destination that took place in the past. Like 1900s, industrial revolution-era America. Just to get away from the teens in peril well that the franchise seems content to milk dry.

I saw the last 15-20min of the last film (I've never seen any of these all the way through) on HBO and it was dumber than all hell, especially the X-Ray / impact trauma "shock ending", who the hell thought that was a good idea?

Anyhoo, from what I understand, though Death is a character in the series, it's presented as intangible. That seems smart, but really, if you want to surprise people, I think coming up with some kind of physical representation to pop up for a second or two would probably be the last interesting thing these people can do. That or Final Destination: Space!

Love the Pulp Fiction stills in the article, Nick.

Wonder if they're modeling the bridge collapse on the Minneapolis one from a couple years ago as they blatantly modeled the plane crash from the first film on TWA 800.

I have a kind of misplaced retard-love for this series, but I'll admit that last one was dire. All those EXTREEEME X-ray visions were obnoxious as all hell. Not enough babes in it, either.

There was a point where I thought that the creepy undertaker guy (in FD2 I think?) was the physical embodiment of death. Never panned out though.

Tony Todd's undertaker character (from 1 and 2) pretty much shows up to go "Hey guys, I'm totally Death. OR AM I!? Yeah...I probably am." Sadly, he's only the voice of a roller coaster in the third.

Besides that, they actually show a weird shadowy form in the first...Death death...in the first movie. Then they decided to drop that completely.

Hopefully they can do something slightly different with this one. The last two terrible installments have seriously tested my patience for listening to boring teens figure out the franchise rules.

So, lot's of people being sliced in half by high tension steel cables? Nice.

Hopefully this will be a big step up from the last one which actually made the deaths boring, except for the swimming pool gag, that made me laugh a lot.
