In his premonition, Sam helps Molly to safety before Peter dies and his vision then ends with his own death. From this, Sam and Peter deduce that Molly was never meant to die in the bridge accident, which is why Peter thinks that by killing Molly he will save himself. However, during the plane crash at the end, Molly is the first to die and then Sam. This could mean that Molly was also meant to die in the original bridge disaster, possibly because she was standing on a crumbling piece of bridge that gave way or because she fell when she instinctively tried to reach for Sam while he was sliced in half (Sam simply never saw it happen as he was already dead). However, it is also possible that she cheated death when Sam saved her from Peter, which caused her to go on Death's list. Furthermore, in Sam's premonition, the bus is one of the first vehicles to fall off the bridge. When the bridge actually collapses, the bus is one of the last vehicles to fall off the bridge, showing how much he changed reality by cheating death. Olivia's, Isaac's and Candice's deaths don't really make sense. Eye surgery lasers are not powerful enough to cause an eye burn, let alone skin burn, to prevent accidents like this. The worst damage they can do is irritate the eye for a few days. No doctor would leave the room in the middle of surgery, the glass would not break so easily and the water dispenser should not be so close to the outlet. Also, Olivia's eye is burned by the laser but once her eye falls out, a close-up of it reveals it looking undamaged. However, it is probably the other eye which was foreshadowed with her ripping the teddy bear's eye out. Although heavy and high up, the Buddha statue that fell on Isaac's head may have had enough force to crush his skull but not enough to completely flatten his head and it would not shear and sever the arteries and skin of his neck. Lastly, it is highly unlikely someone could break their spine by falling from such a low height the way Candice did. Additionally, some of the deaths in the premonition don't make sense. Isaac tumbles down before he hits the windshield but since he's flying through the air, tumbling shouldn't have happened. Olivia also falls into the water and although she survives the fall she is crushed by the car, but the impact alone should have killed her because hitting water from this height would be like hitting concrete (which is usually fatal). After Flight 180 explodes at the end, its landing gear crashes into a bar, killing Nathan. According to a news report shown on TV that Alex watches in the first movie, the majority of the debris of Flight 180 fell into the Atlantic Ocean after it exploded shortly after takeoff. However, the explosion can be seen hurdling the landing gear towards the city, thus, it would appear that the landing gear was the only piece of debris that fell on land. The fact that it kills Nathan shows the craftiness of Death's designs. The bridge collapse is inspired by the Tacoma Narrows Bridge collapse in 1940, which was caused in part by high winds but mainly due to poor construction. Peter's death is based on a the death of Leslie Ince who was impaled by a 22-inch meat skewer in his own home. Additionally, someone HAS died from an acupuncture needle stabbing into the heart after falling off the table. Reminiscent of the bridge collapse is the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore on March 26th 2024 after being struck by the container ship Dali, which lost power shortly before. The ship's crew who survived and did not sustain any serious injuries) were able to notify officials with a mayday call that allowed authorities to stop traffic but there were still some cars on the bridge. Two people were rescued from the river. Six construction workers are presumed dead—Three bodies have been recovered. Authorities are still working to establish exactly how the crash occurred. William Bludworth (the coroner) says he's "seen this before" but seeing as this one actually takes place before the events of the first one then that means there was at least one other disaster before the bridge collapse. The Blu-ray release features two alternate death scenes; At the massage parlor Isaac dies when he is standing in the puddle of liquid and is engulfed in flames when it ignites and instead of having just one eye burned, both of Olivia's eyes are burned during the laser eye surgery (although she still falls to her death). There is never an explanation for why these particular people suddenly get premonitions of their deaths, especially when preventing it goes against Death's plans. Perhaps they are just another element of Death's cruel game but the visions seem counterintuitive to what Death is trying to accomplish. According to writer Eric Heisserer, it was always meant to be a prequel and the idea came from series producer Craig Perry. Director Steven Quale was the Second Unit director for James Cameron's Titanic and Avatar. It was shot and released in 3D like the previous movie. Ashley Tisdale auditioned for the role of Candice (she also auditioned for roles in 3 and 4). Canadian Olympian Brittany Rogers is the gymnast on the balance beam while Candice is on the uneven bars. A sixth movie is set to be released in 2025 under the name Final Destination: Bloodlines. It is said to be a reboot that will deviate from the standard formula the series is known for and is centered around first responders. Clues to the twist ending: The expiry date on the gift certificate Isaac steals from his dead co-worker's drawer is 6/30/01; when Sam looks at his plane ticket right before the crash the date is clearly displayed as May 13th 2000; Nathan using the famous line "I see dead people" from The Sixth Sense (which was released in 1999) during the funeral; Flags on the walls of the gymnasium leading up to the year 2000; the old-fashioned office phones in both the company building and the eye doctor's office; the characters' older cellphones (most people had smartphones by 2011); the older computers and the older TV (most had been replaced by flat-screen computers/TVs by 2011); and the Liberty license plate on William Bludworth's van which was used in New York until 2001. References/foreshadowing: In keeping with series tradition, several of the main characters are named after famous horror directors: Peter Friedkin is named after The Exorcist director William Friedkin, Candice Hooper is named after Tobe Hooper who directed both The Texas Chainsaw Massacre & Poltergeist, and Olivia Castle is named after William Castle who directed both The Tingler & The House on Haunted Hill. At the memorial service, the second name on the plaque is Chris Boylan—a reference to Christine Boylan, wife of the movie's writer Eric Heisserer, and also the inspiration for the laser eye surgery scene (after she had undergone such a treatment which "scared the Hell out of him"). The video they are watching on the bus is describing the corporate retreat company they will be working with—The company's name is "180 Corporate Consulting". The restaurant that Sam works in is called "Le Cafe Miro 81" - The same cafe seen at the end of the first movie. When viewed upside down, the last three letters of the name look like "180". Sam and Molly's assigned seat number on the plane is 23—the same one where Clear sits and the pile-up from the second movie happened on Route 23. The picture that Olivia knocks off her desk was taken at Devil's Flight, the rollercoaster from the third movie. After she knocks it over, the crack in the frame is centered on her right eye, foreshadowing her death. Furthermore, in the premonition, Olivia dies due to a car falling on top of her; in reality, she dies when she falls on top of a car. Before Isaac goes to the spa, he is pricked by a thumb tack in a drawer—foreshadowing what happens. Additionally, the spa is called "Ming Yun" which means "fate" or "destiny" in Chinese. During the gymnastic scene the cord plug looks like a skull. The name of the company the eight survivors work for is called Presage Paper—"Presage" means a sign or warning that something bad will happen. The bus number is 1282 - 1 + 2 + 8 + 2 = 13. L Again, the opening credits reference deaths from previous movies. When Nathan brings beer to the office you can see a model airplane, truck and race car in Sam's cubicle—references to FD1, 2 and 4 that are actually foreshadowing as this is a prequel. Besides the bus there is a truck loaded with logs. A picture of Roy standing next to the #6 race car, which caused the crash on the racetrack in the fourth movie is seen in the bar. Sam dies the exact way Alex died in his premonition. In the premonition, Olivia's glasses are knocked off, which is a nod to Scooby Doo, since in a running gag the character Velma always loses her glasses in a similar manner. Nathan saying "I see dead people" during the funeral. Cast: Nicholas D'Agosto (Sam) was in the 1999 movie Election with Reese Witherspoon as well as movies Fired Up! and Prada To Nada, along with appearing on TV series such as Heroes, Masters of Sex, Gotham, Trial & Error, The Office and Grey's Anatomy. Emma Bell (Molly) has starred in movies such as Frozen (NOT the Disney movie but an adventure/thriller from 2010) and Hatchet II with Tony Todd (William Bludworth) as well as TV series such as The Walking Dead and a Dallas reboot. Miles Fisher (Peter) has often been likened to Tom Cruise and he parodied the actor in Superhero Movie in 2008. In the early 2020s, Fisher saw a deepfake video by Chris Ume, a Belgian visual effects artist in which Fisher's eyes were replaced with those of Cruise. Fisher and Ume subsequently collaborated on videos of Fisher posing as the actor, which quickly went viral. He is also a musician and released a video for his song New Romance, which features the main actors in this movie in a Final Destination/Saved by the Bell parody in which most are killed in freak accidents. Jacqueline MacInnes Wood (Olivia) is most known for her role as Steffy Forrester in The Bold and the Beautiful which she has played on-and-off from 2008 and won three Daytime Emmy Awards for. She appeared in the pilot of CW's Arrow but was replaced by another actress for the remainder of the series as well as the comedy series Anger Management alongside Charlie Sheen and hosted a show on E! called Party On (where she visited some of the best party scenes around the world). She is also a DJ/singer. Courtney B. Vance (Agent Jim Block) has been in many movies, series and stage productions; including The Hunt for Red October, Space Cowboys, The Preacher's Wife, Law & Order: Criminal Intent, The People V. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story, The Mummy reboot and Ben is Back. He is married to Angela Bassett. P.J. Byrne (Isaac) has been in movies such as The Wolf of Wall Street, Rampage, Bombshell and Babylon as well as series such as The Legend of Korra, Justice League Action, Big Little Lies, The Boys and Never Have I Ever. Arlen Escarpeta (Nathan) starred as Bobby Brown in Lifetime's Whitney (about Whitney Houston) as well as the movies Into the Storm (also directed by Steven Quale) and a remake of Friday the 13th. He has also been in series such as American Dreams, The Magicians and The Oath. David Koechner (Dennis) was on The Office where his character also works for a newspaper company.

You can watch that one after the 3rd or 4th movie if you aren't interested in the whole franchise, though I'm sure you'll enjoy them all to some degree and will be hooked. Both Saw and Final Destination are very fun series.
