looks good to me! I'll definately catch this one in theatres. I absolutely loved the first one.

When I heard first head about the idea for Final Destination 2, I thought it would be horrible and they would foul the entire thing up, but this trailer has revived my faith in sequels.
Fowl up the whole thing?? I thought the first film already took care of that. I will never understand the attraction to these horrible teen horror films, theres nothing actually scary about them, its just a bunch of scenes of someone jumping out and screaming BOO!!!! I mean sure its gonna give you a startle, but its not like that makes it a good movie.

Darn! Beat me to it! Anyway, yes, I think it looks very good.

I think that "final destination update" beat all of you fools to it. ;) :p

Teaser looks good as does the poster. I assume it'll be a lot like the first one, I just hope its as good.

Mr. Cornell 11-23-02 09:04 PM

I'm surprised they made a sequel, since the first "Final Destination" was kind of a flop.

I'll never understand this. If you hated the first movie so much and with so much passion, why even bother coming into a thread discussing the trailer. I've seen several threads discussing the next Lord of the Rings movie and couldn't stand the first one so I just avoided those threads.

I thought the first one was great and I don't go for the teen slasher comedies they put out these days. I thought this one was a lot of fun and had a great storyline. I couldn't have been more surprised at how good this one was so I am looking forward to seeing what they do with the sequel. :)

The first film cost 23 million to make. It debuted with about 10 million and went on to make about 55 million in the U.S. alone. It was in the top 10 for many many many weeks because of good word of mouth. It also rented very well on video and dvd. Sounds like it did well to me.

Well this isn't an average teen slasher. There haven't been this many clever and elaborate death sequences in a long time. And the sequel looks like it's going to up the ante.

I agree that most teen horror flicks are horrible (Urban Legend 2, Soul Survivor, Scream 2 and 3, Halloween Resurection...) But sometimes there are some breaths of fresh air with something original and clever and witty in it's material (Scream, Urban Legend, Final Destination). Sure, it's not oscar worthy, but no ones asking for shakespear, they're asking for cool, gorey deaths, and exciting ideas.

Breakfast with Girls 11-24-02 12:52 PM

That scene with the disposal? They won't turn it on. Standard cringe-inducing scene that ends with him pulling out whatever he dropped and then something ELSE bad suddenly happening.

I've seen too many of these damn movies.

Geofferson 11-24-02 10:05 PM

Looks promising.

Tyler_Durden 11-25-02 02:04 AM

This looks like the definition of "more of the same". There is NOTHING in this trailer that promises anything innovative or fresh as far as the original idea is concerned. Blah.

Jackskeleton 11-25-02 02:39 AM

Well come on, what can they really add to it to make it innovative? From this stuff you should almost always expect "more of the same"

Tyler_Durden 11-25-02 06:51 AM

Gee, I don't know, maybe a little more than just a new bunch of people doing what seems to be EXACTLY the same things the people in the first film did.

The films' central premise is certainly unique enough to allow screenwriters to come up with different scenarios. Hell, they could even turn this into a superhero film!

Trigger 11-29-02 02:10 AM

Too bad Devon isn't in this one... (isn't he?) Anyway - I'm looking forward to it. The premise I heard months ago sounded kinda lame, but the trailer made me think it might be good. :) Either way I was gonna give it a chance. Loved the first one.

Hey man, thanks for the tickets. I appreciate it. By the way, where did you find out about this? I go to quite a few test screenings, but I didn't hear anything about this.

Blaster1 01-23-03 10:51 PM

Saw Final Destination 2 Today
 
If you liked the first one then you should like this one too. There are some crazy deaths in this one. I liked it.
Spoiler:
The premonition of the wreck on the highway at the beginning is insane

Supermallet 01-24-03 12:50 AM

I would like to point out how unintentionally funny the title of this movie is.
