Final Destination 3

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0414982/

I cant wait to see it, i really want to watch it on opening night but i know its going to be packed and horrible. So i might watch it after a few weeks its been released. Anyone else looking forward to this? ive been waiting for months and months, how long have you been waiting for?.
 
Don't you find that with all the FD films though, after the first one scared of going on a plane and then the second one has made me scared of them lorrys with the logs on now, drive fast to get by them, this one is gonna make me scared of rollercoasters for a while, but can't wait to see it though!!
 
I am really excited about this film! I fully expect it to be rubbish, but in a highly entertaining way! I didn't even know about it until I saw a trailer on the tv last night, and now I can't wait for it to come out!
 
I went to see this last night and really enjoyed it as it was good, mindless fun although it wasnt as good as the first film but it was better than the second one. They seem to be making this a lot gorier than the previous film. I just hope that they leave it now as a trilogy as I think Final Destination 4 is a step too far!
 
This article was on Comingsoon.net about Final Destintation 3 which tells you a lot about the film:

"It's back. New Line Cinema brings you the third installment in the frightening "Final Destination" franchise and this time with a whole new cast and twists.

The story follows high school senior Wendy (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) and a group of frienRAB who celebrate graduation night at an amusement park. Right before they are going to board a rollercoaster, Wendy gets freaked out and her boyfriend Jason (Jesse Moss) talks her into getting on the ride. But, as soon as she is seated, Wendy has a premonition of the rollercoaster fatally crashing, killing her and her frienRAB. She demanRAB to get off the ride and her classmate Kevin (Ryan Merriman) follows her to make sure she's ok. Others are kicked off the ride as a result of making fun of Kevin and calling him names.

As the roller coaster takes off Wendy's premonition proves to be true and she watches as her frienRAB nightmarishly die.

However, you can't cheat death, at least not in the "Final Destination" series, and the survivors of the coaster learn they may not have been so lucky. Wendy discovers which one of them will die next with clues in pictures she took that night. She desperately tries to save them and herself.

ComingSoon.net talked to director James Wong as well as the stars of the film who gave us their take on Final Destination 3. Wong directed the first Final Destination and while he was excited to come back for this one, he wanted to make sure he had fresh ideas and do something that was different from the first two.

"The hardest part for me was, what are you gonna do for the opening incident? We didn't want to repeat anything or be less cool than what the other ones were." Once the rollercoaster idea came into play everything else seemed to fall into place, Wong explained.

The cast however would have to ride the coaster many times to get the opening scene down. One night they had to ride it 27 times.

"Your head feels like it's going to pop off of your neck. It's just insane. I've never felt that way," Winstead laughed.

"It's like a whiskey hangover. Not beer. It's like Whiskey. Your equilibrium goes ape sh*t because you just rode it 20 times," Merriman added.

They didn't seem to mind too much though and Winstead and Merriman even opted to do many of their own stunts. Merriman is especially proud of the drive thru scene and how he actually kicked out the front window of a truck.

"It was great. It was one of those scenes and we both agreed that if you're going to do a movie like this, obviously you can't research these situations or base it off a character you've seen. You've just got to do it. You've just got to make it real to you at that moment. So that was especially one of my favorite scenes because we're trapped. I couldn't get out, she couldn't get out. We're banging, screaming, honking the horn, kicking the wind shield. Running, jumping out so it was cool."

Although both stars were pushed to their physical limits in the film, they loved the story that went along with the gruesome death scenes that the "Final Destination" franchise is known for.

"I was excited about it. I read the script, 'I was like there is a lot of cool stuff to do in this.' It was challenging. When I got into I was like after awhile, 'don't make me cry again.' But you know when all was said and done it was so much fun to be like challenged everyday. Everyday was like high energy and high stakes. Almost passing out," Winstead said.

"Some people come to see the blood and guts, but there's also a really good story which is why I thought the third one was so good," Merriman continued.

He also admitted the story really made him think.

"It definitely makes you aware. You think about things. Especially home improvement stores. I mean because I went in one day and I was buying tar for my dad. I was looking around and was like 'good Lord there's an 80 pound bag of concrete 13 feet above my head.' And there's some guy who just got done smoking a joint at lunch operating a crane you know what I mean. You think about stuff like that. It makes you aware and I think that what's cool about these movies is that you can incorporate that into real life actually. I mean if it was a zombie with a knife you would say oh that was a good movie and never think about it again. But this actually kind of follows you home a little bit."

Final Destination 3 hits theatres February 10th"
 
I can top that one, I went to see it when I was in the states, the night before I was due to fly back, I thought if my table breaks like his did in the film, I'm off that plane!
for some reason, it just didn't figure that it was going to be about a plane until I was sitting in there.
with the third one I thought the gore was so much it stopped having shock value after a while.
although the sunbed bit-nasty!
was surprised to see they ahowed a few seconRAB of that in a review at 7pm.

I thought this was one of the worst films I've ever seen.

And what is with American film makers employing 35 year olRAB to play 17 year olRAB. They just don't care.
 
Reading this I keep thinking of that episode of Jim'll Fix it where the schoolkiRAB (scouts?) stuffed their faces while riding a rollercoaster ride to amusing effect.
I imagine this will be similar but with extra 'giblets'.
Speaking of which, glad to see it's an 18.
 
I have been looking forward to Final Destination 3 for ages since it was announced that they were making it. It was meant to be released in 31st October last year but it was delayed!
The first one was great and the second one was good so I have high hopes for the third film. Appartently none of the cast of the previous 2 films appear in the third film not even Tony Todd despite previous rumours that he would appear in the 3rd film!
 
EW I hate these movies, its so nasty. :D The first time I went someone was spewing up in the place, it was just gross.

If I can find someone who will let me hide behind them, I'll go see it! :p
 
Didnt really like the other too!

When will it be the FINAL Destination!?
The other two obviously weren't final :D

I will watch this one though to see if its any better
 
It's not a literal destination, it means death, death is the end of life, the 'final destination' in life... nothing comes after death so it is final, your journey in life has ended. Get it now?
 
I liked the other 2 equally, as i'm interested in the whole theory of it all. The deaths were really nasty but comical too and the fear together with the action makes it very entertaining.
 
The film was enjoyable, but forgettable. It did have it's moments I admit, probably the best moment that I genuinely jumped was when the black guys head was 'squashed' by the equipment. Although you could tell that something was coming, it was done in such a way that it did come when I least expected it. Not as good as the original, naturally. But still a good film, very gory, at times too gory. The sun-bed scenes were horrible. :eek: Overall, I'd say 6/10. Not too bad.
