Can you imagine being a part of the general public in the area around the park that has that coaster. They see the commercials for this movie, and they start to freak out because they have been on that ride before. :D

Yeah I just saw Final Destination 1 last weekend. And next weekend I'm gonna see Final Destination 2 (although I've already seen the beginning and end of it.)

Haha, those movies are disgusting but eh, I like 'em.

And me and my friends were talking about getting a parent to bring us along to that movie, because we too are under-aged, and people do check your tickets.

Anyone else see this movie this weekend? I saw it today and it was awesome. The rollercoaster crash was actually believable. The deaths are creative just like in the other 2 FD movies.

I saw a more interesting trailer of it tonight, wow, looks pretty intense. Now I REALLY want to see it. My dad might take me at some point, so I'm excited.

I saw it today and heres what I think (to those who care)

The opening scene was actually a lot more realistic than I first thought it was going to be. Obviously to any of us we all know that obviously the track isn't just going to magically split in half during a ride, but to any GP it looks pretty realistic.

The movie as a whole was obviously very similar to the other two because of the same plots but I liked this one more. I liked how it incorperated a song each time the girl was in danger, and it just seemed much more grusome and gory (worse than the other 2)

I enjoyed the movie, there was some great pacing that made the 90 minute movie fly by, which is important in any movie or I get bored.

Go see it if you have the time, it won't disappoint.

I saw it tonight as well. Most of the people were laughing through the whole movie. All the deaths were so stupid, they werent realistic at all, not that I expected them to be. Dont go see it just because it has a coaster.

I wouldnt spend $8 on it (I got in for free).

Thanks for the review. (I care). :D

I decided to see Firewall instead, however, i rented the second one and thought it was rather disgusting. Oh well, I'll probably end up seeing it next weekend.

Well, I finally saw it this weekend...well, sort of. I went there and we got to the scene with the nail gun and the girl i was with freaked out and didn't want to see the rest. And, since i have a stupid generous personality, i left the movie after that scene. I'm planning on going back to see the rest, is it worth it to see the rest of the movie?

i saw it tonight, and it was good. I was one of the people who thought it was hilarious. Many people in the theater thought that it was funny too. I didn't like the ending. I never saw the first two final destinations, so i don't know the back story and if the other endings were like that, but i liked it.

I saw it, the coaster in the movie is Corkscrew from Playland, which originally was from Boblo Island and named Screamer. They used computer imaging to add a vertical loop and change the drop, also to make it look taller. The wooden coaster in the movie is called Coaster from Playland, and the other rides and games is the same layout of Playland.

On another hand, ONLY TO PEOPLE WHO HAVE SEEN THE MOVIE, there is one thing I am utterly confused about. If you remember the scene of the coaster accident and how it was caused. That guy that was filming caused the whole accident to happen because he dropped his camera on the tracks, BUT if you remember, he did NOT ride the coaster, so my question is how did the whole incident happen? The hydrolic leak only opened the harnesses, and the track wouldnt have broken unless the extra force of the collapsing train occurred, but that couldnt because the guy with the camera was not on the ride. (he was the third to die)

Other than that, that movie was HILARIOUS and very odd.

^I dont know, but if you saw it you would notice that it took a while for the coaster to crash, then when it actually happened it crashed IMMEDIATELY.

^I noticed both of those too. I guess that is why it wasn't rated high. There were a few things that don't make sense.

Dan you forget that almost every wheel on the train derailed before that camera somehow broke the track into two pieces.
