several people have misunderstood something i say in the intro, so let me clarify my ghostbusters (2016) take:
i didnt watch the movie, cause i thought it looked trash. people have since told me its trash, and im sure it is.

but it is not trash because it has a female lead cast. it's trash because it's trash. it's hollywood sludge. a remake with a whole new gang of male leads wouldve been just as trash. the "basement dwelling reddit mods" mentioned in the video isnt meant to refer to "anyone who disliked ghostbusters (2016)". it's meant to refer to "anyone who disliked ghostbusters (2016) on principle because it had an all female lead cast".

There’s a podcast titled “Was the villain right?” Where the hosts discuss the morals and ethics of villains in movies. They brought up final destination and came up with the idea that “Death” in this film is a worker on their first day and the characters avoiding there deaths on the plane was a huge mess that this guy now has to figure out how to clean up before his boss gets back.

One thing about the last rule. You actually steal the person's timeline. Not just completely avoid death. You get to live as long as they would have. Which means the detective would have died in two weeks either way and so would have the girlfriend.

I like how (originally) it feels like Death tries to give you a tame death, and then you avoid him and then he just goes "YOU KNOW WHAT, SUFFER"

Final Destination Bloodlines Minor Spoilers Ahead:

Good news: The fates of Kimberley and Sheriff Thomas have been retconned - They are confirmed survivors of the franchise!
Bad news: This might fuck up the entire video.

I think when death fails he leaves it to his apprentice to finish what he missed. Except the apprentice doesn’t have the passwords or permission to the systems necessary and has to Rube Goldberg machine his way through that list.

I cracked it. I understand death's code. It's like grocery shopping when you have no idea where something is in the store.
Death is grocery shopping.

The fact that David Koechner has played a manager at a paper company for two completely unrelated franchises is hilarious. Like what a weirdly specific industry and uninteresting job to play as an actor.

I'm guessing if you kill another person, you get their remaining lifespan. So when Nathan accidentally kills Roy, he gets his lifespan. But because he's riddled with Cancer and doesn't have long to live for, Nathan also died.

I'd love to watch a Final Destination movie from Death's perspective.
"This fuckin' guy again! Let's try a chainsaw windmill that gets set off by a marble"

@ashnesslinguistics3570 4 years ago

I think a fun interpretation of death's "list" is that he's extremely disorganized all the time and altogether is just. Really bad at his job if killing people in a specific order is a part of it.

@kfecfuifb 2 years ago

a bus hitting someone who steps into traffic makes sense, but an ambulance splattering someone on the steps of a hospital without stopping is fucking hilarious

@cooldawg2009 1 year ago

For Nathan, the best explanation I found for why he still died is that his life was extended, but not “skipped” by death. If Roy had 2 weeks of life left, Death leaves nathan alone for additional 2 weeks. I assume if nathan kept killing then Death would be forced to keep ignoring him

@TheHellhound01 2 years ago

the way the teacher died in the first movie felt personal. Death made especially sure that she died. Like bro fucking pentuple tapped her

@PurpleBiscuit 2 years ago (edited)

The way you could take one of the easiest premises ever (if you're saved, you're skipped and go back to the end of the list) and create four separate very complicated theories on how its working must be a talent

Shout out to Todd being the only person in the entire series whose death is made to look like a suicide when every single other person gets an elaborate, clearly freak accident death.

The scene even ends with Death "cleaning up after itself" by sucking up the blue liquid back into the toilet

@patrickkanas3874 1 year ago

If someone saves you, death doesn't circle back to you as soon as the next person on the list dies. It keeps going down the list until it gets to the end, and then it circles back to you.

Death coming back to people he missed is the equivalent of skipping questions you don’t understand on a test

I am convinced the people in FD movies are like in a different world where EVERYONE is like Mr Glass from Unbreakable. I mean in most cases the force of impact for certain things WILL kill a normal person but like, a explosion sending a section fence so fast it slices through a person? A pressurized cannister pushing someone so hard through a fence it dices them up? A regular falling metal sheet just slicing someone in 2. Granted I'm no expert on the matter but Myth Busters couldn't get a snapping cable to slice through a pig under the BEST conditions.
