Final Destination 2's cover a ripoff of an Aliens photo
 
I was looking at the cover for Final Destination 2 and couldn't help but notice its striking similarity to a photo from the movie Aliens.

Took me a while to find the photo from Aliens, but here it is:

And here is the FD2 DVD cover


Anyone else notice the similarity?

It's a group of people in a triangular shape facing forward...not exactly one of a kind stuff there. Hell as I type this post the DVD for The Best of Arliss has arliss front and center with ppl behind him fanning out...I'd say u'd have a case if the amount of ppl were around the same and the lighting was similar and they were both space marines :)

actually that FD2 cover is like every other horror/slasher DVD cover that's came out since Scream. Case in point, all 350,000 covers like that will have 2 things present.

1. A mask/shadowy figure on the top in the background

2. A photo of the "hip-young" cast below the mask/shadowy figure.

I think the "Post-Scream cover theory" is at work here.

Now if the cast of "Final Destination 2" were holding pulse rifles, then we could discuss similarites.
