This is a headgum podcast. This is Emily, Henley, and Sammy, and you're listening to Too Scary Didn't Watch. Hi, everyone. Welcome to Too Scary Didn't Watch, the horror movie recap podcast for those too scared to watch for themselves. I'm Emily and I am too scared to watch scary movies. I'm Sammy and I love watching scary movies and so I watch them so that you don't have to we're missing Henley this week we miss her we love her she'll be back cut her some freaking slack the woman has been nonstop with being with us even though she's got a lot going on she's got a lot going on yes she's doing great but she's taking a little break and

we respect the choice we respect the choice we respect Henley we really respect our friend Henley. Um, other than that, other than Hanley not being here right now, Sammy, did anything scary happened to you this week? Uh, well, you know, I had a sort of scary thing where it's getting a little warmer in Los Angeles. It is. Yep. Yep. And I'm keeping those doors open. Sure. More than usual. And my house is a very, I live in an old apartment building where absolutely none of the doors have airtight seals on the screens. That's honestly inch gaps around. every it's massive it's anything could get through to be completely honest any small animal probably basically yeah you you know what i start there's been worms in here uh they like crawl in on the

earthworms like earthworms this happened twice and the cat i'll notice because the cats will just be sitting staring at a spot at the floor um and it's just right where the right at the door doorstep so they must have ewes wiggled in There isn't even like dirt nearby. They had to go flying. They climbed up the stairs. They have stairs at both doors. What do they think they're going to find in here?

Nothing good. Death by cat. So yeah, I guess just the general increase in bugs in the house is the scary thing. Because actually the flying bugs, you know how much I hate mosquitoes. My number one enemy on this planet Earth. I want them wiped from existence. And so there's been these little flying. insects coming in that I thought were little mini mosquitoes because you know they get so small

these days. There's the really small ones. Yeah. And those are the bad ones. Those are the fucking mean ones. Yes. But whatever it is, I was sitting at my desk working and just every five minutes, a tiny little bug would fly right up in my face. And I could, I smashed it and killed it. And that's how I figured out they weren't mosquitoes because the mosquitoes are pretty good at evading death, at least in my experience, because I hunt them a lot. but these ones I kill and they're like little they're almost gnats

I'm going to take a picture of one and post it I need help identifying this mystery bug someone will know because it's a little bigger than a gnat I can picture it I do know what you're talking about It's not a bathroom fly have you ever had bathroom flies those are so gross with the like round little circle wings and they will not even try to escape death

at all those ones are so easy to kill I guess I'm just getting nervous and scared about the upcoming bug battle in my apartment because I have no protection from them. So any tips and tricks to minimize the bugs in my house. I'm trying to reinforce the doors and the gaps and fill them with little foam things. but you know I'm just going to be a crazy person all summer long so stay tuned because I'm talking about this again we're going to have more more updates for sure yep yep wish me luck oof I do what about you Emily anything scary happened to you this week um well for whatever reason this year for my birthday which which has passed it's no longer my birthday but my

one thing I wanted to do was to watch the sound of music and specifically Specifically to make Joel watch the sound of music because he'd never seen it and had no interest. And I knew the only way I was going to get him to watch it is if I was like, this is what we're doing for my birthday. And so our very lovely dear friends who have a wonderful home theater set up agreed to host us, which they did last night. Sammy, you know you were there. And we find, so we watched the sound of music. I've seen it so many times. It's like my most nostalgic movie.

But I have not sat down and really watched it as an adult, which was a wonderful experience. And a lot of things hit differently as an adult, which is the biggest, my biggest takeaway. And we talked about this last night. The baroness, it totally rules. I would challenge anybody who remembers the baroness as like the bad lady, you know, because she does temporary, you know, she makes Maria go back to the abbey or encourages Maria to go back to the abbey for a little bit.

Sorry if I'm spoiling this out of music for anybody. But she's just like, she's just trying to do what she can to keep her upcoming marriage intact. And then when she knows that she's lost, she handles it with dignity. She is, she's incredible. I was like, this woman is amazing. Why are we not focusing on how cool the barreness is? So that was a big one. That was a big one.

And then another thing is, so I've talked about on the podcast before that I had a past lives reading a couple of couple years ago and she told me that two of my past lives my most I suppose important past lives that have informed my soul were a nun who left the convict convict you got convict on the mind I got convent she left the convict maybe there was a convict vote she left a convent and formed a little like community in the in the woods so that was that was my one past life and then another past life was a puppeteer in World War II and we're watching the sound of music and we've made it to the puppet scene and I was like oh my god I'm Maria know that my past lives were just Maria's journey no wonder you love this movie so much and you loved it as a kid

it's because your soul recognized my soul recognized it as your past lives and Joel did say he was like he loved it spoil alert I fucking knew he would he didn't want to see it and I was like you're going to love it. It's a great movie. But today he said, he's like, I feel like I understand you better now that I have seen the sound of music, which is a beautiful thing. And anyway, I just feel like anybody who hasn't watched it as an adult, yes, it's long. And yes, there are Nazis, which is, you know, maybe not a fun viewing. But it was wonderful. And I really, it was like, maybe one of my very best birthdays. It was very fun. I guess that's not scary, but it was.

a good time. It was, yeah, it was a great time. I had a wonderful time. I hadn't seen it as an adult either. It was wonderful. It's wonderful. Captain Von Trap is so hot. Oh my God. Christopher Flummer. So hot. And I like knew that. But again, watching it as an adult, I was like, oh my God. What a man. Also, I read somewhere that he like hated being in that movie. And I need to look more into that because that's really upsetting. Maybe that's the scary thing. Well, he didn't do any of the singing. And I was thinking about that a lot that the only person maybe Liesel but also Julie Andrew is the only people who do their own singing

and so I was like imagining them being on set and like speaking like what I was just I couldn't stop thinking about what those scenes were like in filming were they just speaking in the cadence of a song and if so that must have been really awkward or just singing poorly or singing really badly which also

would probably be harder for the person acting against you to be like no this is good I like this that's acting baby I guess we got to know more about what that whole experience was like. But that is not the only movie I watched this week, Sammy. No, it's not. I also watched a very different movie, which is this week's movie.

And it is Final Destination 3. Came out in 2006, directed by James Wong, which every time I always go, oh, James Juan, and then I go, nope, James Wong. Yep, different. Directed the previous ones as well. It's written by Glenn Morgan and James Wong, based on characters by Jeffrey Reddick. It is starring Mary Elizabeth Winstead.

Ooh, baby. Ryan Merriman, Amanda Crewe, Chris Lempch, Alex Johnson, Sam Easton, Texas Battle, Sheldon Simmons, and Yan K. Crystal Lowe. And it is available to rent for $3.99. A steel. An absolute steel. You're not going to regret it. And this week, we have a guest joining us to discuss this movie. she is an actor and comedian host of fellow headgum podcast newcomers and the podcast

freedom with our horror respondent paula f tomkins she's also a member of the comedy group wild horses which i would recommend anybody who isn't familiar checking out we are so happy to have her welcome lauren lapkis oh my god i have so much to say about everything that's been said like i'm just i can't first of all the worms climbing the stairs i'm really stressed like concrete Getting into the house stresses me out. I'm like, that's a lot of effort for a worm and you have to be afraid of them. Anyway, I just had to say that. I've been holding that for like five minutes.

But inside of music, I haven't watched in forever. But it was a good movie. It was a cute movie growing up. But it does, I think I didn't realize that. I thought you were going to say the scary part you realized now was the Nazis, which I think took me a long time to understand when I was. Certainly it read as a lot scarier as an adult and like given where we're at now, just being like, oh, these are.

the biggest losers in the room, but they got power and everybody has to fucking do it. It's like, it's so interesting. Yeah. I think when I was little, I was like, this is the boring part. I don't understand. It's not colorful anymore. Yeah. But yeah. Oh, God. Crazy. My scary thing, if you want to hear my scary. I really do. Okay. So my daughter is almost two. And my husband and I took her to a playground. And this playground had like this, it was kind of like old it was very new school in the fact that they have like the rubbery floor you like how now that's like a new thing at playgrounds when we were I mean when I was kid you might be young enough that you did have that I don't know I feel like it was becoming a thing it was become it was certainly like oh fancy yeah it wasn't standard great it was usually like nasty sand yeah okay we had lots of wood chips okay yeah um but anyways they have that then they also have some things that are definitely old and like very metal based and like this there's this slide that like looks like it's a huge sculpture it looks like a big snake with its mouth open with a plastic tube in the middle and that's where you go inside and like go down

this tube and the stairs to climb it were metal rods that are like a foot apart each which to me is the whole length of a child yeah yeah so of like a six year old and up could do it themselves but so i like climbed up there holding her but as i was holding her i realized like the shoes i was wearing were horrible for doing I had like no traction and I was like this is actually I could fall like fall with her it was so horrible but I couldn't go back because I had no like ability to hold myself up. Either way you're like well no and so then we went in the tube and I'm almost six feet tall and it was I mean it's not it wasn't made for me at all and so I was like I'm a big lady going in here now and then that was really hard and then I was like at the end I got out and triumphantly was like saying

something to my husband and then I stood up and bashed my head into the snake sculpture and it hurt so bad and it was also embarrassing so I was like hitting your head in public is the worst I feel like it's awful it's awful it doesn't hurt but it's all it's sometimes it hurts so bad that you're like involuntarily crying I was like my teeth are like chattering like yeah I was literally like oh my god I'm and then just like stood straight up into a structure so especially what a fall from grace you were so proud of yourself I know I know it was really pathetic um so that's my scary thing that happened to me. Parenting is really hard. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And that's

my big takeaway. And that's why and that's exactly why. And that's the only reason why actually. Everything else really easy. I hear especially with a two year old, I think it's probably pretty standard stuff. There's nothing even say. Yeah. When I do that at home, if I stand up into like

an open cabinet door, I'll immediately burst into tears. It's just an instant thing. No, it's so horrifying when you have no idea something's coming like that. It's also just very surprising. Yeah. And to be surprised by pain is not the worst one.

Not good. Not good. Really sorry that happened to you. Thank you. That's really tough. Yeah. It's kind of my final destination moment. It could have been.

Yeah. Your head would have burst like a balloon. Just pop my brains everywhere. Yeah. Sets off a chain of events. A little like plastered tooth of the snake falls into the ground. And then it like triggers a little. on that and your head falls into a grill and yeah um could have been that could have been funny

actually yeah we will get into with there's like you know plenty plenty of that to come um but Lauren what is your relationship to scary movies in general um okay so I'm really I would say I'm not much of a scary movie person I tend to be freaked out and I have you know I close my eyes at night after watching a scary movie and I see like the worst thing from that movie and I feel scared. So I kind of limit it to like I loved scream growing up and I so I love all the scream movies and then that kind of thing is the kind of movie I like. I also prefer a movie where there's a killer and the killer dies at the end. The story is closed. Right. They're not still out there. That happened one time and he's gone. I don't like when it's like a ghost. I don't like

when it goes through the worst. I don't like I don't like nuns with blood. I don't like like anything like that like exorcisms. I hate that. I can get very freaked out by that. So I tend to not watch a lot of scary movies. But every once in a while I get, you know, roped into something. My husband loves them. So we'll watch stuff from time to time. But I usually leave that to him and, you know, try not to. Yeah. Was there one as a kid that like really stuck with you? Like do you have a moment where you're like, oh, I don't watch these movies and maybe here's why? Honestly, like the things that scared me, I don't even know what happened in the movie, but I remember there was an earnest movie. Do you know what Ernest movie? Is scared stupid? Probably or like he goes to camp or something. I don't remember which one. Someone, someone has brought up Ernest before. Is there something where you have to kiss the monster on the lips in order to neutralize it? That makes a lot of sense and I hate that. That's bad. That's bad for many reasons. Disgusting. I have to kiss the scary thing you hate otherwise it's going to keep. coming. Yeah, but it was like, I think there was something in that that freaked me out. And then my brother

making fun of me about that and making it scarier. So most of the time it was like the thing might not have been that scary, but then talking about it and like making it scarier was the part that stuck with me. Yeah. But yeah, that's the first movie I think of as being a scary movie, but I'm not even sure which one it was. Um, I just tended to be very, like, I would never have wanted to see like it or something. And I actually saw it in theaters and I was like, this is, I'm going to be killed here. Like, just something bad is going to happen here. It just was so scary to me. Yeah, I have a very hard time escaping the tension of the moment.

Like, even in these movies, which are insane and very silly, like, in the buildup to the bad thing, I'm like, like, I just get like, it's like very hard to separate myself from anything scary. I don't, I don't know how people do it. No, I will say with this kind of movie, though, and this is why I picked this is like, it's so campy that it's, like, it's almost funny. there are times that it's a little much but like it's not really scary you're just kind of especially because it's from like a perfect era to make fun of I was like this isn't going to really freak me out there are points that I

rewound it to see something again just to see how absurd it was because some of the like death moments are so insane that you just have to see it again when we did final destination too there's a person that gets completely panicked by a following pane of glass that is I think so hilarious he just

completely explodes they just like completely it's like a body the body disappears and that's just simply not what would it's like when you did like flower pressing in your book only a body yeah yeah and it became juice and they really I think that these movies would probably be so much fun to write on because all you have to do is come up with especially because they're all always like we're saying like an insane chain reaction that's like it's never it's like this thing runs into this thing which rolls into that which it's like um the mousetrap it's like a rube goldberg that makes no sense. Yes, yeah, exactly. Every single time. No, I said the same thing watching it. Like, this would be so fun to write because you just have to go, okay, so then the most insane death I can think of. And it doesn't have to be realistic at all.

Not even a little bit. In fact, maybe you'll remember you'll be able to help me out with this. Because in watching it and then even in going back and taking notes, I was like, why does this lead to this? They'd be like, they're showing like a thing leaking. I guess that's important. I don't know why. I just know it leads to the thing that leads to the thing that leads to the death. Sometimes I feel like they have like misdirects and you're just supposed to be stressed about

everything that you see because any, like, standard object in a house becomes dangerous in a final destination movie. So everything's dangerous. You're just on edge. You know, a snake slide. Anything's fair game, you know? It's all possible. The worm that crawls onto your doorstep, you could slip on that.

It could be. You could slip on the worm. Yeah. Or your cat could be going for the worm. You could trip on your cat. Yep. And your head falls into a grill. Yeah.

Yeah, I also love them being like, it's a clue about things. I'm like, there's no... There's never a clue. It's not a clue. What do you mean? We talked about this when we did, especially Final Destination, too, which I feel like really goes a lot with this. Death is just like so bored. Death is just having...

Just like, what else can I don't know? Give him this clue and then make him go in here. And it's just like, just kill him. What are you doing? Yeah. Yeah, it's a fun time. We're going to get into it. I'm going to give us a little bit of trivia.

Okay, great. The budget was $25 million. And the box office was $119 million. So, nice, great job. Good for them. Good for them. Good job. They did pretty well.

They did pretty well. It has a 43% on Rotten Tomatoes, a 41 on Metacritic and a 5.8 on IMGB. They like it more. I was going to say IMDB is usually harsher. Usually harsher, but they liked it. A little bit of trivia. So this opens with a roller coaster sequence. and the cast members had to ride that roller coaster 26 times in the scene to shoot that scene,

which would be awful. Wait, that's horrible, not to mention the scene is about a breaking apart, which is like, I don't want to do it so many times. Seriously. That's what I think about all the time we talk about scary movies and the filming process being like, I would be so worried that you would always be like welcoming the thing to happen. Yeah.

ruling it into existence just by just by picturing it. Yeah. So, I mean, they were okay, but they did have to ride at 26 times. And it isn't quite as intense as the roller coaster in the movie. They, it's like, you know, added in like CGIed some extra loops and turns and stuff. But even still, that's a lot of, that's a lot of time. Do you guys like roller coasters? No.

I'm done with them. I used, I loved them as a kid. And now as a kid, it was fun. And now they're so terrifying. I know they make me sick oh my god go ahead oh yeah I was like will every now and again but I can too in my head about it they often make me sick and also I'm scared yeah I went on the one at California adventure uh-huh the like big loop one yeah and I don't know if I didn't realize it was gonna go in a loop or something I don't know what but I was I went on it and I was so shocked that

I was going upside down that I was so scared like it was truly like I need to get off of here like this is so scary and it was just not fun at all and then I felt sick the rest of the day like to my stomach so it was just it was horrible I was like I think I aged out of this but yeah I remember Joel I went to Disneyland last summer and we wrote that one and I in my memory I was like oh this is like a fun roller coaster and it's a fun roller coaster and similar we went on I was like what the fuck like I was like this is not what I thought it was so fast it's so fast it's so fast I mean I guess that's what a roller coaster is but yeah I was like this isn't for me I know well I also don't like I also don't like when they go really slowly up like a wooden rickety thing up to the top and then you go down like that's so scary i think i just don't i think i think it's done i think it's done i never really understood like the carnival rides as an adult like i'm like i'm not going on that no carnivals in particular are terrifying i went on a ride uh the zipper a famous one i think people died but people die on that one i went on that when i was 10 and it was so scary just the straight like up down with the cage you're in like a cage and you're like a cage and you're like

rolling back and forth like I was in line for that one and I hate this like a screw or something fell out of it so they stopped the ride and someone a mechanic climbs up and starts screwing something back in and he like gives the thumbs up he's like all right go and I was next in line and I just got in I was like well I'm about to die and I just did it I was like well I don't want to humiliate myself so I guess I'll just die in this I'll just die instead death death. trap that's so scary to see like a piece of it fall down he's like i'll put this back like that's it won't happen again yeah yeah i have seen a few scary sites at county fairs there those rides are not safe well they're not they take them down and put them up all over the place no absolutely not

absolutely not and you know this movie it's not going it's not going to encourage you against that feeling um right few casting what ifs we had remember this is 2006 which feels like this is some 2006 casting here. I love it. Ashley Tisdale auditioned for the role of Aaron. Didn't get it. Vanessa Hudgens auditioned for the role of Julie. Very 2006.

Oh. Either of them would have been great. It could have been a high school musical. Horror reunion. It could have been. Maybe they were like, uh-oh. We can't do that. Yeah, yeah.

Disney got involved and thought, no, no. We don't want them to be seen this way. Yeah. After reshooting the ending, so they had to reshoot the ending because people, like, you know, premiere, not what do you call it? the audience test audience was not not happy with the ending um so they had to do a reshoot in the winter of 2005 the production on the film finally wrapped this can't be true anyway it's an iMdb and you know that i never fact-checked that but iMdb says the film wrapped on january 31st 2006 and the film

opened on february 10th that's not possible even if they just reshot like one the ending that's insane when that's crazy I don't but when did they when did they shoot the film they just reshot the end they just reshot the ending so I guess the whole rest of the film was like ready to go is just like a scene I'm trying to remember if it's just in her room I think it's part of the subway part oh right the subway but still like and I think I tried to do some research so I'll say it when we get there I tried just some research on what the ending was and I found very little information so it's I don't know like it was actually the part with the rat that they reshot because that would be you could do that you can get that a little rat same you're

you're going to love it sorry there's a rat I love rats I should have you scared for this rat no I think the rat makes it out just fine okay great yeah the rat looks yeah this is a success story for the rat um for sure okay and then here's a bit of trivia that I absolutely hate and I'm going to put it on to you guys because I had to learn it um challenge Ellen Simmons didn't want to do the tanning booth scene, Topless. But she agreed after the director convinced her that it was necessary because it made it more realistic. Oh, nice. Okay, that's the worst reason.

It was so, because none of it's realistic. It's not the point. It's cooked like bacon inside of a tube. It's not real. Also, it's one thing to be like, well, you have to be topless because it's not realistic if you're not. And another thing to be like, this is, the scene is your tits the whole time. Like, it's just close-ups on their tits.

We don't even see their face. But then they could have had a stunt double Or like you know a body double If they if she really didn't want to But that's so crazy When I got to that scene I was like This is so 2006 like you know Or just the past to be like

Yeah And we just zoom in on the tits frying And zoom in on her tits frying And zoom in on her tits frying and zoom in all this is insane It's really it's this is crazy It's honestly the biggest part of the scene Yeah That's unfortunate

Don't love it And it goes on for so long long. So long. That death will get there. But that one out and stuff. It was a closed set, but you know, I still don't love being like, no, no, no, we have to. It's more realistic.

You'll feel fine. No, and it's a closed set, but then it's just like, it's like, it's a closed set. And we're going to like, it's going to, the camera's going to move past you, you know? It's like, no, no, no. It's a close set. And then the world forever will just stare at your tits for five straight minutes. That sucks. I hate that.

So, well, hope they're, hope they're doing. okay maybe the residuals are good yeah to balance it out a little bit and then last little bit of trivia is that Ryan merriman and Mary Elizabeth Winstead also started together in the ring too the year before so little horror little horror friends that's crazy and now laura and i had wanted to ask you how how familiar are you did you ever growing up uh watch any of the Disney channel original movies yeah so do you recall Ryan merriman from you know smart house yes I couldn't place him but Mike told me that's who that was and I was like oh yeah smart house and um the luck of the Irish oh two big two big two big ones I don't remember the luck of the Irish uh it well it's great you should check it out he becomes a lepracron he's a basketball thank you he's a basketball player who turns into a lepracrogy no his family is Irish and he finds out and then the lebracons and then it's uh it's a really he's like from a family of lepracons and he has to like learn

how to it is his whole and he didn't realize that his whole family are actually leprecons but they're a normal size and then he starts shrinking it's really an interesting time it feels like they just took Teen Wolf and they're like just let's make it leprecha it's worth the watch it's worth the watch for sure

it's worth it. It really is and he so that's like my brain's association with Ryan Merriman and he was great enough spiky hair in this he has yes but also flat it spikes down like bangs yeah yeah yeah

it's so 2006 it really was some of the hair oh man the hair how about that guy with the big poofy black hair it was like sort of ryan cabrera ask very much which was a total moment yeah it was so huge and mary lisbith winstead's hair the like the swoop bang so once that had that exact haircut i think i had it for 20 years yeah i had it for a really long time um and the low rise flares oh my god the style oh in the first scene like the style is just crazy the fashion is out of control with the thong sticking out and the blue and the pink and i was like this is just thong sticking out have seen some thongs sticking out again yeah why is that's so sick that was crazy i feel like well we we were like kids and that's when that was happening i mean i

was old enough to do it i guess but i didn't do it but it was that's so it's a it's a all it's usually just teenagers doing that which is even grosser like as an adult now you're like that's really disgusting that your full ass crack is out and I can see your whale tail it's shocking it's shocking it's absolutely shocking it's absolutely appalling it's meant to be under it's underwear excuse me it's called that ladies

a lot of that going on in this in this movie and I guess to give us a little bit of a visual we should watch this trailer oh I can't wait Oh, great. The ones who got off that roller coaster are still going to die. Unless we can figure out how to stop it. I never thought I could see my old death. It's actually a really good trailer. It's a very good trailer. It gives you everything you want and nothing else.

Yeah. And it doesn't give it away. It really doesn't. Weirdly. Yeah. I thought it was going to be like the whole thing. Sometimes I feel like old trailers used to just show you the entire movie. Yeah. No, it's a really is a good. It's a good trailer. I was quite pleased. It's smart to show us little peaks of those last two movies. It's like I'm getting excited again. Remembering those and being like, oh, right. This is what I'm in for. Remember how crazy that last?

Do you remember that? Yeah, and I'm not sure if I saw those. I think that maybe I did like at the time, but I don't really remember. But yeah, they don't really ring a bell on that trailer for me. The plane crash. Sometimes things that are too real like that is just too much. I think that's the scariest opening. Well, the logs on the back of the truck has haunted me for, like,

I mean, I always think that's going to happen. I don't know if that's from this or, yeah. I feel like a lot of people have that instinct now. The thing that haunts me from the, um, from two is the thing under the break. Oh, like a water bottle or something that gets stuck. I got to say, Sammy, you, when you were driving the other day, you had one of your sandals off and it was down there by your break and it took everything in me to not be like, Sammy, get your fucking shoe out of here.

Yeah. That's not safe. Okay. Don't do that. Don't do that. Don't do that next time, Sammy. I know you do a lot. I've seen you do it before.

I'll move it back. Just put it to the passenger side. Okay. Just put it to the passenger side. So you like to take your other shoe off when you're driving? I sometimes take them both off. It's illegal. It's illegal?

It's illegal to drive barefoot. Isn't that weird? Yeah. Well, I guess it kind of makes sense because it's kind of harder to get good pressure on the breaking and gas. You know how I found out it was illegal. Do you guys remember that show and now I can't remember what it's called, but it was two guys that would compete.

It's on Comedy Central or MTV or something. And they would have a theme each episode. episode and there was one episode where the thing they were competing for is who can break the most laws and the sounds very empty that was and get away one of them was like I'm gonna drive without my shoes on and it feels like a really easy one to get away he was killing it no one can see because he was like I'm not impressed my dude I know but he was wait and why do you like to do it I need to hear more about um it just feels comfortable and now it's like habit I'm not even I don't actually even think about it I just take my shoes off when I'd

I don't know. Yeah, I guess it just feels comfortable. Also, these shoes are like... It's kind of funny. I find it interesting. I do it when it's hot. Sometimes I've got to just get my shoes right off my feet. Yep.

But other than that. Yeah, okay. But you're right. I mean, the dangers maybe outweigh the benefits. I mean, I'm fine with the barefootedness. The law disagrees, but I, just move, just put the... You don't want the potential... Passenger footbed, you know?

Break obstruction there. I'll, I will... sit with your shoes and I don't mind my shoe please I won't hold them but I'll put them in my seat oh I'm about to drive can you please hold my shoes um anyway yes a lot of these things it's really interesting how I had never seen this movie but I knew of the deaths from this movie some of them like yeah yeah there were things that just existed in pop culture because of these movies that it was impossible to not know about yeah I think the part that was really funny which showed how much I didn't know the movies was that in the first scene like what's the

character's name the girl the main girl Wendy she like she's like getting nervous and then the whole accident happens on the roller coaster and I was like oh my god they killed everyone in the first five seconds and then it was like in her mind and then I was like oh and then Mike was like you didn't know that wasn't you're like that's the whole thing I was like what a huge twist I'm watching this for the first time so Lauren you this is your first view of any Final Destination movie and you jumped in at 3? But I also, I just have a really

bad memory for movies and stuff. So it's possible I've seen them, but I just didn't know. And I definitely didn't know that was like how they work where it was like, it's in her mind and then it's not real yet. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Well, I think, yeah, on that, no, let's talk about it. Let's get into it. Let's get into it. Can't wait to hear about it. I'm ready. We get our opening title sequence, which is a very spooky carnival.

We're getting like tarot cards and ominous music and a keros. going around and like it was fully are you afraid of the dark um i was like this is and it was 10 minutes long i did watch the whole thing because i was like i think i need to know what's going to happen here but i was like this isn't allowed now like we don't let this happen like we were watching sound of music last night we were remembering like oh man opening title sequence used to be really long and i said actually they did this in final destination three they take just as long to tell you everybody

but we don't have that patience now we don't want to we don't the names can be like tiny in the corner while like a scene is happening. Show me something else. I like the thing they do in trailers now, as if a trailer is still too long for our attention span. In new trailers, they'll play a mini trailer in front of the trailer to be like, here's a preview of the trailer. Have you guys noticed that on YouTube videos?

It'll be here's like a five second trailer for the trailer. It's so stupid. Yes, they do that on like, I don't know, like bigger movies and it's crazy. I think they did it on Scream 6. That's insane. Our attention spans. are so I can attest mine is bad it's short completely shot yeah mine's horrible yeah yeah yeah well so you know we're in this fucking title sequence for 10 minutes um and then we are at a carnival

we are at uh the carnival theme park type thing uh we learn that it is grad night and we have our four friends seniors getting ready to graduate we've got carrie and kevin Kevin Kevin is Ryan Merriman they're a couple and then we have Wendy and Jason and they're a couple. And we see that Carrie Jason and Kevin were on that ride that goes just up and down and up and down your little feet dangle up the front, you know?

Yeah. They're doing that and they get off and they loved it and Wendy wasn't on it. We're getting the sense she doesn't love a roller coaster but she takes a picture of them. I have a question. Yeah. Is Wendy in the previous movies or no?

No. Okay, good. This is, I found it really interesting how scared she was. Immediately. Immediately where I was like, And then I just thought, oh, maybe she's in the old movies and then that's why she's always afraid of everything. No, she's just really afraid. And I was like, this isn't scary to me as a viewer to watch someone be really afraid of a carnival. Like it's, there's nothing happening. She's immediately way too freaked out for the circumstances. And we see, so she's taking pictures on her little, got like a little canon digital camera, very nostalgic for me. Mary Elizabeth Winstead. This is Mary Elizabeth Winstead. Character named Wendy. And so she takes a picture of him the ride and we see she looks back at her picture. And the ride is called the high dive. and she looks at her picture and in her picture the V isn't lit up and so it just says high die

and she's like gets freaked out about that I gotta say like I was glad I was watching it with Mike because I was like why do I care he goes now it says hi die I go oh oh I was like what so the V's out like I did not get that yeah I'm not dumb okay no it feels very like it immediately it's just like you get these movies right like yeah yeah and because I haven't seen them yeah I was like so the V went out was is it the fifth? And he's like, that's the part that doesn't matter. It's like, high die. It's not about a, it's not a movie about bees.

The letter B doesn't matter. But she is a little freaked out, but then they quickly, you know, like, oh, let's go. We got to go. They have tickets for the devil's flight roller coaster at 915, a little time to entry. And they're all excited. And then they decide, we're going to get some food first. They're going to get some fried snickers. And they're talking this whole time.

I fucking love these movies. The way that their characters are just like, oh I can't eat if I eat Snickers before I go on the roller coaster I'll die and then one of them goes a fried stickers won't kill you they're just like saying kill die 10,000 times because also you wouldn't say you would die you would say oh barf yeah no I'm going to die if ate this and then go and they're going to kill you um yeah so they go and they sit down to get some food Wendy we learn is taking these pictures for the yearbook and then the other girl says that she's going to dump her boyfriend and he comes back to the table all happy and I was like that was really mean she just like told the other girl like I'm going to dump him really soon I can't deal with this and he comes back he's like I got the Cheetos or whatever they're having that's so that's and he this is also this is extremely 2006 I just feel like we need to remember what that was like in media and in the world and he she's taking pictures of the yearbook so she's taking pictures of everyone and Kevin was Ryan Merriman he he takes

makes her camera from her and takes an upskirt photo of a girl walking by. That was insane. And they all are just like, oh, come on, guys. They just like, girl walks by in a short skirt. He sticks his arm out so fast, takes a picture, and then he's like, ha, ha, ha. And mind you, this is, like, one of our protagonists. Yeah, we're supposed to care about him. And so that's why he goes to then get the food for them.

And that's when Wendy says to her friend, Carrie, she's like, I don't know how you put up with him. I'm such a control freak that I just could never date a guy like that has nothing to do with that Oh, a sexual predator? She's like, it's okay, I'm gonna break up with him after we graduate and then yeah, then he comes back Oh, it was after the skirt thing?

It was after the skirt thing. Okay, that's a little better. It's a little better, but it still is like, I don't know, I think that's maybe a unforgivable thing he just did and we need to address it. I think he should break up with him now and tell him that he sucks.

Break up with him on the spot. Yeah, that shows how much we did not care about that at the time. We're like, so he's just annoying. I got to break up with him. He's always taking pictures of people's vaginas. Yeah. Yeah, it's not great. Let me sort of get introduced to like who all the other little high school characters are via the photos that Wendy's taking of them.

She's like responsible for these grad night photos for the yearbook. So we get Ashley and Ashflin who are the hot girls. You can see their whale tails. She takes a picture of them. We have a guy named. Frankie Cheeks incredible character name which one is that he's the bald guy with the camcorder oh yeah yeah yeah yeah and Frankie Cheeks we learned he graduated a couple years ago he's like he's the archetype of like the older guy who's like still hanging around and um is

terribly objectifying to these women then we have our football jock um who's doing that like hammer on the thing that makes the bell you know strong he's strong strong guy um this goth couple guy of guy with the biggest tallest poofiest uh jet black hair you've ever seen and these are different groups of people they're not like all there together we're just getting glimpses they're going to be on the roller coaster presumably but they're not they will be they'll end up on the roller coaster they're not all buddies but they'll know each other it's like this is our high school class basically um and then as they're heading over to the roller coaster Wendy

sees her sister who isn't supposed to be there. She's not a senior. And the vibe, this is Amanda Crew, and her vibe is insane. This is like, honestly iconic. I know her from Silicon Valley, so then to see her in this. Oh, my God. It's so funny. She has on, like, a paper boy hat that's, like, cocked down over one eye.

Yep. And her hair is, like, stick straight as it was at the time, you know, in the fashion. And it was, she's, like, so bitchy to her sister. just an amazing little moment. I was like, this is so cool to have this as something you've done in your career. It's just, it's just captures a moment in time. It's so, and, like, probably huge for her at the time. Yeah, oh, for sure. Yeah. Like, incredible. Yeah. She beat out Vanessa Hutchins. Right. Right. But yeah, so she, she's, Wendy's like, what are you doing here? You're not a senior. And she goes, oh, hi, miss, cutest couple ra, ra, which is like, to make fun of her. It was so weird and

bizarre um but wendy takes a picture of her to be like proof for mom and dad that you were at grad night you're not supposed to be then they get to the roller coaster and wendy does not want to go on this roller coaster she's been terrified the whole night oh my god and there's a moment where it's like she has to go through the turns down it's like once you go in you cannot leave ever or whatever and so she like clicks in and she's like ah she's like so scary this woman is having a breakdown she's so scared it's it's truly it's it's actually kind of annoying as the viewer because you're like, I think that we should get to the point where

she gets scared. Right. Yeah. Right. You don't want to start there. She's so instantly terrified of everything. It was like, you have a problem. This is not something that's happening. Yeah. And she does say, we have a little moment between her and Jason. Jason's her boyfriend where he's like, you know,

I think like fear of roller coasters is about fear of losing control and you're such a control freak that we, she says she's a control freak 50 times in this movie. And again, I don't think it's an important We never get that sense at all. No, she's, that's not, it's not true. It's not true, but she has, believes this narrative about herself and so does everybody

else. And so he's like, it's just your fear of losing control. Like, it's going to be fine. And she's like, yeah, it's, okay, I can do it. But she's very freaked out. He's her boyfriend. He knows this. But then it's time to get on the roller coaster.

And she's like, oh, I can't ride in the front. I'm way too scared to ride in the front. And he really wants to ride in the front. And so he and Kevin flip a coin of like, who's going to have to go to the other car with his girlfriend and Kevin loses so Kevin has to go ride in the back with her and her boyfriend's like see at the end like you're going to be fine I'm like if you're so concerned

fucking go in the back with her yeah high school man I don't know no he didn't care he didn't care so Carrie the friend and Jason her boyfriend are at the front in a different car and Wendy and Kevin go to get in it it's like I think it's one of those roller coasters

parallel tracks so they're like basically in a fully different track than the other ones. They're in row six. Not six, six, six, just six. But Wendy looks at it and it like, zoom, and she's so scared. Oh, my God.

Yeah, it all feels like she's scared way too soon. Yeah. Is there, does there end up being just because I know in Final Destination 2, similarly, she's very freaked out, but it's because she's seeing things that are from the previous movie. are any of these tying back to the previous movies at all because there's no in the second one she's

seeing a bus from the high school that it happened to in the first movie and she's like oh that's a bad sign so they're just choosing arbitrary objects for her to be scared by 100% it's that the v disappeared and that it's the number six and it's the thing that says like no going back which is like part of the roller coaster yeah which everyone is reading I mean she has like no reason to be afraid there's not like a history for her of something bad is there right like no no so she's just being really weird she's just being really weird

why they wouldn't use the device from the final destination too where she's like knows about the previous one and is getting no and in fact she definitely doesn't know about it we'll get to that but she 100% doesn't know about it she is Lauren in this situation she doesn't know that this has

ever happened before but she's really freaked out she gets into the seat with Kevin and Kevin's like being nice to her and it's like it's going to be fine come on where you know you could do it um and they get in their car they're about to take off they put their little you know lock themselves in and kevin there's gum on his thing and he's like ew he gets his hand stuck in gum but then it's right it's time to go let's send that send that roller coaster off and we see this is where i was like lorne maybe you understand this more than me we see like a pipe leaking somewhere on the roller coaster that i was

like that's clearly important but I have would have no way of telling you what that does or why it matters but they zoom in a lot so you're like okay I think you're trying to like explain why it's getting fucked up but it's like everything just starts breaking everything just starts quickly and everyone's flying out made it all happen yes like people's harnesses are coming open and then like people are falling next to them and then it's just I mean chaos I absolute The wheels start flying off of the roller coasters. Many bodies are going off. A bunch of bodies are flying out.

Then like someone gets fully chopped in half, right? Isn't there somebody? Yeah. I mean, it's all, it all feels like it sort of happens at once. I got to say, I, I feel like there was so much opportunity with a roller coaster situation to like really make some interesting deaths happen. And instead it's just like, it just dumps everybody out onto the ground, basically. One person does the jock guy gets like flown out and he's holding on while he's like Ryan Merriman like grabs his hand and he's flying and he gets like flown into the side of the thing and drops and dies and then because Ryan Merriman's out of his seat up there's a bar that's just jutting out that does chop him in half and so then hamburger style and so he's half his body sitting next to Wendy who's screaming and freaking out the they have.

end up going upside down and for whatever reason it like stops upside down and so now they're all hanging and holding on and like one by one the people are like they can't hold on anymore and they let go and they drop and die and then then wendy gets flown out and we see her falling to her death and right as she hits the ground she comes to back in her seat the ride has had the premonition she yeah people can i was like praying this whole time have it not be her because she's too nervous and anxious. No, he's going to fucking believe her. Exactly. They thought she was insane. They wanted to take her to an institution. Everyone immediately, like she gets off. She's like, nobody get on this. I got to go. She's back in the roller

coaster seat and it's typical and final destination. The same thing. She, he, she sees him find the gum again. And that hurt. Yeah. I'm being like, oh my God. We got to get off. I've seen this before. And yeah. I mean, he's like, in real life did not like real life once they cut back to reality. He doesn't care that there's gum. He's like, what? he's like touching this gum he's like what it's like you still would think it was gross like it's that's okay yeah um also i was like this was the part so when she died i was like oh so it's going to be like a whole different cast and they kill those people immediately and then it's like we meet the real what a surprise yeah yeah and then i was like oh it's in her eye yeah she she's

don't do you guys remember when fabio got in the face by a goose yes her coaster oh my gosh Yeah. So bad, you know, it's possible. This is a realistic film. What if they'd had a goose flat? Where, when in time did that happen? Had that already happened when this movie came out? Because if they chose to not use a goose and then it already happened in the world, that would be really upsetting. Missed opportunity. Think about how scary that was for Fabio. I feel like we all were too busy like making fun of it. It would be awful. He got really hurt. He got really hurt. Yeah, his nose was like bloody. Yeah. The goose died. Well, no one talks about that enough.

Yeah. Let's talk about the goose. Yeah, that would be really bad. But she freaks out and they stop the ride. They pull her off. Kevin gets off with her. And then basically one by one, all the people on their car get. Oh, what happens is, God, fucking 2006. Lewis, the football player.

So Wendy's freaking out. Kevin gets off with her. They're like talking to security. and she's like, I saw the ride's going to crash, everyone's going to die. And they're like, and Lewis gets off the ride and says, hey, to Kevin, can you control that bitch? Oh, boy. Yeah. That kind of language comes out quite a lot.

Quite a lot. And Kevin comes up to me and goes, you know, man, you're a real piece of shit, Lewis, fuck you. And he goes, fuck moi. And then they get into a fist fight. And so they get escorted off. And basically the chaos, just they're like, hey, everybody on this car, you got to get off. ride. And so that's Ashlyn and Ashley, Frankie Cheeks, Kevin, Wendy, Lewis, and the guy with the big black hair and his girlfriend. They all get off the ride. And Jason, her boyfriend, is seeing this on the

other car and is like, hey, that's my girlfriend. Let me off. I want to go help her. Like, let me off. And they're like, nobody else is getting off the ride. Like, let's go. Start the ride. Which also feels like a crazy thing. You can't keep him there. I mean, I guess they can. He won. He was. wants to get off. He wants to get off. I guess, you know, the sign said there was no going back once he got on. That's true. And they did tell. And everybody could read that.

It wasn't just for her. Yeah. Yeah. So they escort her off. And she sees that they start setting the roller coaster off with Jason on it. And she starts freaking out again because she knows her boyfriend's about to die. And they, yeah, they escorted her out. And they're like, we need to call.

What is your home phone number? They're like, you crazy, you crazy lady. Yes. Really, really being awful to her. And as. Just get the fuck out. like they did not care at all that she was upset like they were just like just shut up and leave like they just didn't like like how she was freaking out and I also was thinking that her part in this movie is really hard because she has to like scream and cry a lot for the entire thing she basically is only like really upset or bawling or just like begging someone she's great she's great she's great in this yeah so then do the does everyone then take her seriously I guess I forgot about that element is that when you see it happen for real then it's like oh she was right okay all right no they don't um

they they're they scored her out and the security guard is is asking you know like what's your home phone number and then they all hear a loud crash and they see people flying out of the roller coaster and she is sobbing and freaking out because jason has died cut two she's at high school she's cleaning out jason's locker there's like one of those things up on a bulletin board with everybody's pictures and candles and a lot of people died on that roller coaster a lot and um mike said that i guess they got to that in-memorium part much quicker than the past movies like they're kind of and there's the part where everyone mourned so quick yeah yes it's just immediately like yeah they all died which by the way that's like hugely

traumatic like it was a on a roller coaster like the roller coaster exploded and all of your friends died and then they're like keep going. 20 people plummeted to their deaths right behind you awful. Nobody is dealing with this trauma appropriately. They all so yeah she's like walking through school

you know sad and alone and being rained on and everyone is sort of looking at her like she's kind of a freak as she walks by I mean they feels sad for her but they don't think of her as like a hero who saved their lives they're just sort of like sad for her boyfriend died pretty weird

pretty weird night um and the rest of them who got off the the roller coaster all sitting together like under an overhang signing each other's yearbooks this is where we learned that the goth guy um the high school is mckinley high school and his last name is mckinley he's like how lame is it that my last name is the name of my high school and ashlin and ashley are there and they see wendy walking by looking all sad and they're like we should be we should like do and the portrayal of these women is how old were they the actors because now you're saying this about this question. I mean, they would have had to be not wanting to do that scene. I'm like, she wasn't a child, but like, she would be really young. Yeah. They seem a little older. Like they have the energy of like 20s, but yeah. But yeah, young.

Yeah. But they come over to her and they're like, hey, we're going tanning for graduation after this. Like, do you want to come with us? Uh, here's our phone number. And as they walk away, they're like, God, that was so nice of us. We're like so nice to have invited her. And this is at the point where I'm like,

God, the tanning bed. Oh, no. Yes. I had heard of this one. But then Kevin comes up to her and he's the only one who's like, oh my God, you like saved our lives. I know. And so he tells her this has happened before. And they're walking in the rain and they're both acting like that doesn't matter at all. Soaked. Absolutely drenched. You can go under something or acknowledge that it's wet. Yeah. It's very wet where you are. And she says something to him like, you know, we don't even like each other.

we wouldn't be friends if it weren't for I was dating Jason you were dating Carrie like you don't have to act like we're friends he's like I did some research to try to figure out you know what happened to us and this has happened before on flight 180 a group of kids were going and so you know Lauren for you

a group of kids are going to flight to Paris I was happy for the info yeah um and one of them had a premonition and he got off but then in the you know all the people who got off the plane started dying in freak accidents and she's like doesn't want to hear it isn't buying it she's like shut the fuck yeah we're not friends leave me alone shut up get away

like in the car she's like it's so fucked up of you to say because he's like we're gonna die yeah yeah he's really trying to work this out with her and she's not having it um she gets home and then if she has interaction with her sister julie

who again Julie fucking hates um she comes in her room again the most traumatic thing that could ever happen to anyone has happened and she's Wendy's sitting at her computer and next to her on her desk is this charm bracelet and Julie storms in and it's like oh grandma left this charm bracelet to me in her will like I can't believe you have it this is my charm bracelet and like storms out and Wendy turns around crying and she's like hey I'm having a really hard time oh yeah and it's like I need someone

to talk to I feel like I caused my boyfriend's death I didn't do enough to stop it and this again And she says, I'm usually such a control freak, but I just didn't do enough to control the situation. And this is where she says, she's like, I can't talk to mom and dad. Like, I think he says, like, I don't have mom and dad to talk to you. You're all I have. Yeah, they don't exist in the movie. Parents? They never show them.

They never. So I don't know. There's never a picture of them. No. Yeah. It seems like maybe these two high schoolers are living alone. Yeah. Taking care of themselves.

So because she's. having a hard time Julie says like you can have the bracelet I'll leave this here with you I'll come at it like the you know when I come visit you after you move away after high school and she's like thanks

and she asks she says can I borrow the camera I'm going to take pictures for graduation because Wendy has already said she's not going and Wendy says yeah you can have it but I need to charge it so go get ready I'm going to plug it in and charge it which was again very nostalgic for me

the like getting out the little USB bead, plugging your camera into your computer to get the pictures up. And so she looks through the photos for the first time, which must be deeply traumatic. But she pulls up the pictures. She starts looking through them. But meanwhile, we see that Ashlyn and Ashley have gotten to the tanning salon. Oh, boy. And the guy who owns it or runs it is like out back on his cell phone talking to his girlfriend.

And he holds the door open, like props that are open with like some tanning lotion or whatever. Yeah. Which honestly, that's not heavy enough. it was just kind of like yeah it was just like it's like holding the gap open but it's a tube of low shit it's not gonna yeah plastic tube um and uh he tells them like oh you guys can go like you know how to do it go do it for yourselves so they decide to go into the dating also really crazy i mean absolutely insane they're like supposed to be like 17 18 like you just go just go in there and do it just go do it they just crank up the number of whatever it is like she's like oh we could

go a little hotter this time. Yeah, we need to get like really tanned for graduation. And they also, so in doing this, they're like lock the front door at the tanning studio because they're like, we don't want anybody coming in and it's naked. So they lock the door. So we know that's going to be bad. But back at Wendy's, she is looking through the pictures

and all of a sudden, inside her bedroom, a really ominous breeze blows through. Her power starts to flicker. And she looks at the picture. The last picture she took of Jason standing in front of the roller coaster and the way he's standing it looks like the roller coaster is like going to go

right into his head and she looks the picture and she goes oh my god and i'm like what yeah what are you getting what do you see yeah like like a huge light bulb moment for her i'm not understanding why let me tell you i didn't understand a single clue they found i was going what like i just was not following a single clue i didn't get where their thoughts were going yeah but it's immediately obvious her, but she then looks at the picture of Ashley and Ashlyn, which is of them holding a big blow-up palm tree that they won at one of the rides at the carnival. And that is another big, light-bold moment for her where she's like, oh my God. And she tries to call them and they don't answer. And again, I'm like, okay. That's so funny. It's like the, it's like the writer

decided to skip the part that was the actual to like make that make sense. And it's just like, well, just do their reactions as if we've written. Right. She gets it. Right. And if you don't get it, you just aren't paying close to have attention. Yeah, it's obvious the clue. Palm tree tanning? Sun. Sure?

Yeah, I mean, yeah. She's like, oh my God, it's all right here. Yeah. But, you know, she's right. So cut back to the tanning salon and they're getting in their little tanning beds, which again, I was like, this is insane. Getting into that is, I mean, do people, I mean, people still do that. Yeah. I think they still are around. Yeah.

It's. I don't understand. Horrifying. It's so scary to get in there. I would be scared about without this movie. And then you're, and then you're, and you're just blazing in UV, like, which we just know is bad. It's crazy. It's so wild. Especially when there are so many options for like spray tans. They're like organic. And like what I was like. Yeah. I mean, I guess there really weren't in 2006. No, no. Yeah. But I'm sure.

was all toxic. Please don't do it anymore. It feels really bad. Even if this doesn't happen, which is that, again, we get a real, you know, a Rube Goldberg of how this ends up causing their death, which is they bring a drink in the way they talk to each other too. They have a huge slurpy. They have a big slurpy and one of them says the other, shit, I forgot my iPod. And the other one goes, sucks, bitch. And I just loved their energy. Then they're like, there's a CD player we can play.

And then like that seems like it's going to kill them for a second or something, like some CDs fall. And then they're like, they put on a song and then they have headphones that are connected to it. So they each have one headphone. I didn't understand. I didn't understand the opposite sides of there. I didn't understand. I was like, why don't you just play the CD player?

Like, it's a boom box. Yeah. So they put, the drink gets put, the slush gets put on a thing above like, I guess a heater for the room or the thing that controls the electricity. And we see condensation start dripping. So we're like, okay, that's. bad um

and they get they take their tops off and we look at their tits a lot they just zoom in on them over and over zoom in and then even the point where like then it started and they're listening to like roller coaster

yes okay which did not I didn't hit me until I was taking notes of like they very narrowly avoided dying on a roller coaster and like 50 people they know just did and they're just like Rolla Costa, like that would be so triggering.

Yeah. They're not effective. That's supposed to be a funny joke for us, I guess. I think so. But in reality, they would be like, skip this song. Skip it. Fuck, fuck. No.

Yeah. And what I actually said was like, what a random song. I didn't like, I didn't get it at all. But they're loving it. And yeah, we start to see one thing is leading to another. The dripping into the electricity. The temp is going up, up, up. They're starting to feel hot and then a shelf falls.

Well, this was pretty fun, I thought, because it was so crazy that it was like. I did not recall how it happened. You tell me. I think what happened was that the shelf broke, like, and then where the CDs were, and everything falls. And then the shelf itself just like falls between their two tanning beds and then like into the doors of like underneath like between the door. So they can't lift up out of it. I didn't fully get how that works I don't know how it got there

but it did seem to like how you put yeah like a bit in like a door handle like a bar to keep it from it does that yeah and I also just got something else that when they die and then you go to their caskets

that it's like two tanning beds because I was like why are they having a mutual like a joint funeral I think they have mutual but we watch this stuff I think is one of the gnarlier ones which is just like we watch them

crisp up risk up and they're like screaming and trying to push out but that's obviously very hot and they can't get out and they're like their bodies are turning burned and scaly in these things I like imagine I feel like you'd have to at some point like stop feeling your body right I feel like you'd be in your brain I mean maybe I think you really please I don't think it would happen fast enough no I mean it'd be awful but I think at some point you would stop feeling it probably so they're just they're cooking and screaming and then eventually the tanning beds oh and yury has the guy who runs it has been fully locked out the back the tube exploded and so he can't get back in the front doors locked they're screaming and then the tanning beds disperses flames and then they fully just uh i think some glass shatters and it's bad it's a really really really bad way to go yeah yeah and so unnecessary so it makes it even worse so unnecessary it was bad for their skin to begin with. Yeah.

And yeah, then we cut to their funeral and they are having a joint funeral. And at this funeral, Wendy calls Kevin and on his cell phone, he picks up and she goes, I'm with Jay. And he looks over and she's like across the cemetery at Jason's headstone. And it's like, what a weird way to phrase that. Yeah. But he goes over to her and she, this is where she. reveals her photo theory, which were you as shocked why this as I was Lauren with the first

picture she pulls out. Wait, what was it? Abraham Lincoln. Oh, yeah. Well, I was like, I don't, this theory made no fucking sense. So she, she pulls out, like, printouts that she has. And one is, the first one is Abraham Lincoln. She's like, and it has like a vague, very faint line through the top of his head, like, actually his hair. And then she's like, see this. This photo was taken before. And then I'm like, so it went through his hair. Like, it doesn't look like he's going to be killed. It wasn't even like actually a good image. It was like, yeah, very, very, very like Q and on. We've just decided this is true. And it's 100% makes, it's like the evidence is right here. See, he has a line on this picture. I'm like, so. And that's right where he was

shot in the head. The next picture. Then, then, then I think she was the next one in 9-11. Yep. Because she brushes past it. I think they cut something. And I'm curious if the trivia had anything like this because my theory was that they she had said something like horrible because it was like she just shows this picture of you can tell it's the twin towers and then there's a shadow of an airplane on the building which doesn't tell you any when did that how I don't understand what you're trying to show yeah what does that mean it just doesn't mean anything no but she thinks it absolutely but she just shows it without saying a word and then they move on and so I'm like she said something

that was too far. Afterwards they were like, ooh. Why would you say that? Because she didn't explain it at all and then she just moved on to the next one, which I think was the flight 180 or something or was that or something else? I think it was all of her examples.

It was a picture of the accident from Final Estation 2 where they're on route 180. And she's like, see it's the same number as it was a clue about how those people were going to die. It was honestly like an improv scene or something. You're just like, these things connect. Like you're just like you're just talking. Like it doesn't have anything to do with anything.

There was nothing like if you wrote that, you'd be like, I need to think about this more because there's not she's not really proving anything with this. No. You're watching it. You're not going like, oh, like there's nothing there. There's nothing there. And she's like, I have all these photos that I took of everyone. And so then look, look at this photo of Jason. The roller coasters going into his head.

It showed how he was going to die. And then this picture of Ashland. Ashley, uh, it, these photos, they're all, it's all the clues. And then she almost faints. Yeah. And, and Kevin says, I feel like the problem with this is you could look at any photo ever and do this. 100%. No, she doesn't even have a point. She's like, she's just showing pictures of things that connect to things that were bad. Like, yeah, this guy got killed. The Twin Towers. Like it, she's just like, see? See? And it's like, that's not anything. You don't have a theory. Um, But she almost faints.

And so Kevin's like, oh, my God, when was the last time you ate? She's just, I don't remember. And so he's like, okay, we got it. We're going to go get foods. They go to go through a drive-thru. And like, we're going to look through the pictures on our way to the drive-thru. And as they get to the drive-thru and they, that's where they start explaining their theory that Jason. And Jason was in the front row of the roller coaster.

And so the people in the front of our roller coaster would have been. the first to die. So Ashlyn and Ashley were in the front row. We need to think about who's next. Who's going to die next? And they realized that Frankie Cheeks was right behind them.

It's the worst name. I believe at one point two, he calls himself Franklin Cheeks, which is just really... It's actually worse. They realize he's going to be next. And so they look at his phone and they're like, let's... You got to look at like,

the clue might be it's all right here and it's a picture of him climbing a rope ladder at the carnival and like okay so maybe oh Kevin goes it's obvious he's going to fall off a ladder and she's like but it's a rope ladder maybe he hangs himself um you know it might not be that obvious like all the other ones have been yeah i was going to say yeah that'd be on track meanwhile they're in the drive-thru and there's a car in front of them ordering at the window and then a car pulls up behind them so they're wedged in the scene is very scary then a truck starts backing into them from the side doesn't see that they're there and by the way he's backing fully into a building anyway even if like he doesn't see their car cross like a grass area it's like he's backing down and then

there's a car a truck that's out of control that starts coming down yeah so they get wedged in by this one truck who backs up onto their door on to them I'm like slowly You are horrible at driving. It's not fast. It's slow. You need to not be operating a vehicle. Yes. But they're stuck and they, yeah, they see from the top of the hill another truck, like a moving type truck rolling down the hill and realize there's nobody in the driver's seat of that car.

Oh my God. Oh, my God. We got to get out. And so they're honking to the car in front of them to be like, you got to pull forward. There's a car got you. And they can't get out because they're wedged in. They're wedged and they haven't like pieced together yet that they're safe because they're not next on death's kill. No, they're not concerned about that.

No, no, no, no. I mean, I would be concerned about this truck barreling towards me, too. I think it's normal thing. The car in front of them isn't moving. He doesn't even turn around. He just flips them off and is like, I got to order my food. Shut up. And so they, at the last second, burst out of the windshield.

Yeah, he breaks the windshield and then they jump through. And then the truck comes and smashes into the back of the whole line of cars, right? And then this guy's head explodes. Yeah, so it's a trust the chain reaction where all these cars get, I had to watch this back to be like, what happened? Yeah. Because it's, I think what happens is the crash pushes the car engine of Kevin's car. So the guy in the front isn't a convertible. So he's got no protection. The his, the engine of Kevin's car gets flung out into the back of the head of the guy driving the convertible. But what happens is the engine fan goes and slices the whole, like, back of his head off.

Oh, wow. Yeah. And they just watch that. And they just watch it happen. And they see, oh, my God, guess who that person was. Oh. That was Frankie Cheeks. Okay.

Okay. I feel like if we had seen that it was Frankie Cheeks beforehand, that could have built some suspense for us as audience members who know that it follows a follow a. It might have been good. Chronology. because I wasn't stressed because I know that they're not going to die in this scene. Yeah, no, but Frankie Cheeks dies bad. It's his head gets nasty.

Really disgusting. I feel like they don't usually show it from somebody else's perspective, though. It's usually you are in that scene with that character. No, yeah, it really caught us off guard. Yeah. All right. But they're like, what the fuck? That's not, wasn't the photo.

But they go back to Wendy's house and they're like, we got to look through all these pictures. and we need to see everyone who was on the roller coaster. Does it have to be a photo that she has taken? Is that at least limited to that? It's the pictures from her camera from grad night. But the Abraham Lincoln and the 9-11 photos, those are just from the internet. Those are just to prove.

You're just what I was proof. She didn't even explain that idea. No. Because I feel like pulling them from the internet is like it could be literally any photo, but yeah. Oh, yeah. Okay. Yeah.

This theory is tricky. No, it's, it's rock. solid. We need it to be. We need this. We all need this. So they're looking through the pictures to see who else is on the roller coaster and they realize there's a row of a couple people that they can't see who they are because when

she was going to take a picture, that's when the guy running the ride, he like put his hand in front of her face and was like, hey, no cameras on the ride. So we have like mostly an arm and some blurred people behind them. Like we don't know who those people are. but they're going to die by arm stuff we know who knows and we know that

who we know that oh okay so they're looking through the photos they see a picture of Carrie and they have a sad moment and Kevin says this was truly crazy he was like you know I was going to propose to her after graduation

which we know she said she was going to dump him and also you're 18 they're 12 yeah it's like why are you crazy doing that this is crazy no it's because she died that he feels like that's what was going to happen yeah um and then we flip to the next photo and we see in the in the background of the upskirt photo that kevin took is frankie cheeks and what's right behind frankie cheeks is a fan so that once again they're like there it is

the theory is correct yes wow and so they're reinvigorated on their theory they look through the photos they see that lewis the football jock is next and in his photo he's doing that hammer on the bell thing and there's all sorts of stuff in this photo there's like a ride that is probably racially insensitive that's like a ninja holding like two big swords and then there's the hammer thing

so like okay a hammer something's going to fall in his head but no there's also the swords and Kevin goes oh my gosh he's at football training camp right now and the team is the sultons and their picture is two swords like that's the clue so they're like we got to go find lewis okay and meanwhile kevin's like i don't want to look at our photos like we're probably in there but i we can't see how we're going to die not not until we have to we haven't worked with their photos whatever yeah you're not curious at all

it might be helpful let's keep it a surprise for later and like we don't know that it's going in order like why don't we just look at it and especially because these pictures are just clear-cut evidence and we would know 100% what's going to happen. But they go to see Lewis at the gym and at this point Joel had like wasn't really watching with me except for every time we would

gear up towards a death he would like come back over and he was like oh as soon as they got to the gym he was like oh the gym like he like remembered this death scene again great places to go for these deaths like going to a big gym full of like really intense high school football players who are all like the energy in this scene

is the most chaotic place I've ever seen in my life they're all like like lifting weights and like screaming and it's like really an upsetting place but they go to see Lewis and he thinks they're they've lost it he's like you're seeing patterns everywhere because you feel badly about what happened and he feel guilty

but I'm never going to die those are words he says I think they say that in two also like we're going to live forever in these stuff I'm never dying it's just absolutely not true regardless of the movie it doesn't matter it doesn't matter you will die yeah um but he doesn't think he will but Kevin is trying to convince him like look at these photos man this is

proof uh also again like to be acting this way I'm never going to die when once again a bunch of your classmates and people we were with just died on a roller coaster that you almost were on. Then two other of your classmates died in a crazy freak tanning bed accident. Then another one of your classmates just got a car engine in his head.

You at least would be thinking that death is possible at this point. Yes. But he doesn't think that. And Kevin's trying to convince him and Wendy is doing her a really scared thing where she's walking around the gym, seeing death signs everywhere. There's an ominous breeze, I think,

once again we see Lewis go to one of those I don't know what this machine is no but you pull your arms in and a bar pulls weights you know everyone knows everyone knows and it's under two swords up on the wall crisscross two big swords which I'm like are those actual sharp so what would they be why would they be they should absolutely be plastic like party city swords yeah yeah or just not have them at all or a picture a poster of some sort but no it's a no a painting a work of art a painting commissioned a painting I would like it to be painted um but he so he goes to that machine and it's right under those and like the whole room is like shaking because all these football players are so funny to exercise right under two swords yeah it's really the worst that's on him that's

thing. That's on him. But he's like, we avoided death. This is a success story for us. I'm going to go to States. I'm never going to die. I just win. Fuck death. I just win. And as he like pulls the machine and it shakes the wall and the swords fall and they both come down and they slice the wires on his machine, but don't get him. Uh-oh. And they are like, oh my God. And he's, liked he's like you see that fuck death I just win and he grabs the things again pulls his arms in to pull the weights but the wires that hold the weights on have been snapped

and they both smash it to his head from both sides and squash like pumpkin oh my god it's kind of like my moment of tramply jumping out of the slide and then hitting my head Like, I'm fine. It's like, I'm never going to die.

And again, the amount of times that the two of them, Kevin and Wendy, have had somebody else's blood just spattered all over them. Yeah. And that they keep going. I'm like, you got to get some time alone. Like, this is just too much. You got to. Just stop seeking this out. Like, you're watching people get decapitated everywhere you look.

At all the time. You've seen the worst things anyone could ever see. over and over and over again and they decide okay well we got to keep doing this and why is it the town kind of alarmed it's like so many teens are dying in insane ways and nobody's stepping in to say anything it's like there's no like speech happening also interesting you know how far are we geographically from where the other two films have taken place because it seems like we're in a world where this has happened twice before I don't even know i don't even know where this one is this one is like new england i can't remember where the other

ones are i mean i guess it would i guess probably if this were real happening in three separate locations it wouldn't be you know linked together necessarily not necessarily she would link it true i mean this also this movie even more so than two i feel i mean these movies are just like hey a bunch of deaths let's see how it happens this one is there's nothing in between it literally just go person to person person a person death death death death death and then and it's an hour and a half and they're in and out and they're just on like a death scavenger hunt just arriving at each new death scene yeah so the next one is the hardware store another great place for a bunch of deaths to happen and this is aaron and ian the goth couple we see them getting into all sorts of stuff that could cause

their deaths he's shooting pigeons with a nail gun oh um he's driving around in a fork lift i mean it's a hardware store there's blades everywhere i'm i'm absolutely very nervous they they don't take this very seriously they're like you know whatever he's uh Ian's like, we're biological entities and death is the natural conclusion. And he's like climbing on shelves and things are falling down and no one reacts. Like it's just, it's chaos. It's chaos. Yeah, they're like closing down the store.

And it's like, first of all, don't let two teenagers work closing shift alone. But Ian makes the point where he's like, oh, well, if it's going in a line and the last person's going to die or like it's going to kill everybody until the last person, maybe you should just kill yourself. It's like, okay. Yeah. And they do tell him that if we intervene, the death will skip that person because that's what happened in the other times that this has happened.

So they're just started talking it through. All sorts of things started. They're looking at the photo, trying to find where's the clue, what's going to happen. They keep thinking they see it. They're like, wait, look out. And that doesn't cause the death.

But we've seen, again, another chain reaction has been set off where a box fell on another forklift, which is moving, pushing things in the back of the store. they end up in a narrow little shelf area he's got a buzz saw going so we're like is that going to be that but then they see a bunch of wooden stakes on a top shelf start to fall and they're like oh my god that's it they're like Ian look out they push him out of the way they all start

falling and then shelves are all of a sudden like the whole store is coming apart like earthquake style and Ian gets at they all managed to get out of the way but in all the things falling Aaron gets pushed back into a shelf and it's the shelf where the nail gun was and it starts just going off and it shoots from the back of her head through her face like 20 times

that part was disgusting that one was really bad and they're all just watching this happen what was the photo for these two the photo it was I don't know I have no idea what it had to do with this I don't think we could have known

even if we had seen I know I saw it none of it makes any sense none of it makes any sense certainly none of this and I don't even think they even deal with it they're just sort of like she's looking at the photo when the stakes start falling and she's like

that's what it is and it's like okay it doesn't matter now doesn't matter but so they intervened he doesn't die but Aaron did and so they now realize okay well the last two people to die are going to be Kevin and then Wendy

but there are the unknown people the hand photo people are in front of them so we have to figure out who those people are and then it's going to be us and so they decide to split up and try to figure out who ask around and figure out who else is on the roller coaster and as Wendy is going home

we see Ian ominously watching her from his truck So that's going to be bad. Oh, because he's the one that's maybe considering killing them to try to break this. And as he just watched his girlfriend die in a really, really, really terrible way. Yeah. But no one mourns anything. No one mourns anything.

And we also have never seen a body be dealt with in any way. No. Like they don't call the cops. Just leave it at the hardware store for the opening shift. They just don't. There's no. After this one that we do see Wendy and Kevin leaving the police station together. Oh, okay.

Okay. As if they like told the cops about it. But again, it's like, well, okay. Call an ambulance. Like, do something. Yeah. Yeah. So at home, we see Wendy napping in front of her computer and Julie sneaks in and sees

the charm bracelet that she absolutely must have and takes it back. And it's like, okay, great, I have my little charm bracelet. And she leaves and she's getting, her friends are coming to pick her up and they honk out front to get her, which wakes Wendy up. And Wendy wakes up and she's got that picture on her computer of the hand, the unknown person. And she goes, oh, my. my god, and she's like zooms and zooms and zooms in. And on the wrist of the person whose face she can't see is that charm bracelet.

Yeah. She didn't see her sister. Oh, no. A couple of rows in front of her. She was too nervous. Yeah. She was really freaking out. She was not taking in her surroundings.

No, she was, unless it said the number six and then she was really taking it in. Six as in six, six, six, six as in if they were two more. yeah they were two more of these that would be really bad yeah and so she realizes that Julie is on her way to the town tricentennial and this is how we know that we're in New England because we go to the town tricentennial which she calls Kevin and's like we have to go to the

it's Julie she's next meet at the town tricentennial and he says well okay after Julie we're next so I think it's time that we look at our photos so Wendy looks at her photo and she's like mine is just me with Jason and his face is all blurry and I'm just wearing

my McKinley High School t-shirt and you're like, okay, what's my photo? Kavins is she's like, it's the one where I flashed the camera in your face after you took that Upsker photo and so it's just

really, really bright and over-exposed and he says, you mean like a firework went off in my face? And he looks over and it's like fireworks display and we see a bunch of people

getting ready to set up fireworks. Okay. So they go to the tricentennial and it's like, uh, there's a guy on a horse riding through being said the british are coming the british are coming we see revolutionary war uniforms and a guy pretending to be ben franklin so that's about where we are in the country

somewhere where they do that people care about that yeah sure and as she's driving to the tricentennial her radio starts freaking out which did happen before frankie cheeks died when she was in the car with kevin the radio just started like going like and like and the song a song starts playing there's someone walking behind you and so that happened before it's now happening and she realizes she's being tailed by somebody and we know that it's Ian so she's freaked out but she makes her tricentennial they find Julie Kevin and Wendy find Julie but she runs away from them because she fucking hates her sister she's just like ooh like leave me alone and so she's running through the crowd they're running after her we see somewhere a cart got like knocked off its

wheels we don't know what that's going to mean yet but we you know close up on it and then the fireworks display starts happen the fireworks start going off and a horse starts totally freaking out because there are fireworks and the horse is like tied to a rope which is like tied to a stake in the ground this part's really scary this part is very scary and it and it just rears up and starts running and of course easily pulls that fucking steak out of the dirt you Yeah. And is running through the crowd, trampling people, running people over. And so that's happening.

And then Kevin and Wendy are chasing after Julie. Kevin finally catches up to her before Wendy does. And he's like, Julie, you're in danger. We have to talk to you. And she goes like, how about this? And like flips him off again, which is like, Julie. Just stop. This has been the worst week ever.

Like, everyone they know is dead. take a minute um but when she does that wendy in her mind's eye flashes to her photo that she took of julia where she was flipping her off the exact same way and she was in front of the carousel which had white horses on it cut back the horse runs through the rope it was tied to swings around julie's neck and it starts dragging julie through the crowd by her neck so she's choking and being dragged by a crazed horse. Yeah. And no one's really trying to stop that. There's not enough efforts to stop the horse. There's people everywhere, but yeah. So then they're like, oh, my God, oh, my God.

I got to be honest with you. I probably wouldn't make an effort. I would probably, I mean, I'd probably be scared to be a lot. The guy, I mean, was, I always forget his name. The main character. Kevin. The main person we would be talking about for an hour. Kevin was like, he has a, he has a good plan.

So he grabs like a sword. A lot of swords in this town. Who has swords? Yeah, and he's basically He basically chops into the rope just in time Before she's like to get dragged into some spikes Yeah And then it, you know, she's released

Which was pretty amazing I was gonna say that's a risky Sword move He could have decapitated her If she's one second exactly But he does it And so they they you know Kevin and Wendy get up to Julie Like oh my god I'm like Julie

And Wendy immediately says Julie who is next to you? on the roller coaster they're next they're next and julie's friends have run up because now their friend just got dragged by her neck through the crowd and one of them hears wendy saying that and stands up and then the cart that we saw get like knocked off its wheels runs into a pole and knocks it loose and it flies to the air and impales her straight through her stomach and so that girl it's immediately dead I think another horse did that actually

maybe the same horse A horse ran it got loose again and it was tied to a pole They keep tying these horses to things they shouldn't be tied to And the bull comes loose and yeah impales her I just think like in the moment I didn't think this but now that we're talking about it There's just not enough of a reaction to all of this

Absolutely it's happening In the moment I'm like whoa crazy I'm like I'm more just processing like the filming of it or something And then I'm like, so I think we're going to need everyone to be told they have to go home. Like there's not enough like, I feel like in Scream they, which because it's like the main movie I've seen, they like make the town like go to bed. Like it's like we're having a curfew and like let's all process. This is bad. Like something bad is happening.

Like here they're just kind of like so the carnival, I guess we'll keep hanging out. But like this girl just got impaled, but like there's not that feeling. No reason to end the whole night, you know, we're all out. That was a freak accident. It's not going to happen again. We're having a lot of fun and I'd hate to, I'd hate to sacrifice that for. It's the town tricentennial, you know, it's important. Yeah.

And they're absolutely in this movie too. They happen like seemingly within like 20 minutes of each other. Like it's just like they're just, it just, they just keep happening. No time has passed. Yeah. No time has passed. But because this girl just died now, Wendy's like, oh my God, it's Kevin's next. and Kevin

somehow he's gotten a little bit away from them and again another horse fucking kicks him rear both back legs kicks him shoots him into a grill or like where the fireworks are and a big fire starts

but they grab him and manage to pull him away so he doesn't die but now it's Wendy and they're like oh fuck okay we've reached the end of the line it's Wendy so what do they think the rule is for all these skipped people that is going to come back to them or that they're all fine. They're not thinking about that, but I'm thinking about that because

that's what happens in all the other ways. Yeah. Death does eventually come back for them. But they're not worried about that in this moment, which, you know, sure, prioritize. But so now they're like, okay, it's Wendy's turn and she sees Ian being all creepy and like stalking them. And she goes, oh my God, I was wearing my McKinley t-shirt. Ian McKinley is going to cause my death. Yeah. So they're trying to get away from him.

He starts taunting them and he realized like, oh my God. I'm going to cause your death. Like you caused errands. All right. Let's fucking go. Let's get this over with. And Wendy says, if you just stay away from me, we can end this.

You know, you can save me. We'll all be fine. And once again, he goes, well, I'm fine. It skipped me. I'm not dying. Yeah. And then a bunch of fireworks go off. They don't, like they shoot like at him, but they don't get him.

Once again, he's like, he's like, I'm never dying see and then from above a sign falls and this one I had to watch again because he looks he stands stick straight and then turns his head totally up to look at it and then just watches it fall it's like you actually had time to move as you see this you saw it all he just watches it and then it just splats him down yeah and then it's it's a sign that certainly was heavy but it cuts him it splats half his body and sends like his head and one half of his torso like off to the side yeah it was almost like a stadium like scoreboard or something i don't know what it was but it yeah it just like falls down and he's gone he's gone and then cut to five months later

yeah and wendy's on a subway with two new people we don't know and they're discussing what stop they're going to get off at. They're going to get off at all as well. Two more stops. And there's a guy on the subway playing the guitar, you know, trying to get. Now I wonder what they were singing because I'm sure it was like, you're going to die. Well, so they start singing that there is someone walking behind you. And Wendy goes like, oh my God. And then a breeze blows to the subway. His death is here. She starts, she looks at all the ads on the- Oh, that's so silly. Yeah. It's like, you can't escape death or taxes. We all have something to do with it. one is like a tanning salon and she's like oh my god oh my god it's all the all the dust she looks

out the window of the subway car and sees like her face looks like blurred because of the moving train she remembers her photo with jason's face blurred she's like oh my god oh my god there's i'm going to die and they decide she's like we have to get off at the next stop because we hear an announcement going like oswald the end of the line once again the end of the line you're very ominous it's actually tony todd's voice oh fun just fun um um And so she's like, we have to get off at the next stop. And she, meanwhile, cut to a rat, Sammy. We see a guy throw what looks to me like tomato paste.

Do you know what this was? No. It was a tube of something that he was eating. Yeah, it was like tomato sauce and a tube. Just like a casualty snacking. Tomato paste. And we see him throw it on the tracks and we see a rat come up to it for a yummy-y-a-lack. again

it's shot in a way that we're like uh oh but I'm like okay there's no way to predict what they're getting at ever like absolutely no way

and Wendy tries to get off the next stop but as she goes to get off the train she runs into Julie her sister trying to get on

and they're like oh my god what are you doing crazy this is so crazy what the chances just like oh my god I was coming early to visit you

I can't believe I managed to surprise you so they end up staying on the train because now they get a long because she saved her life. Yeah. When,

and she's like, Julie says, what's wrong? You seem freaked out. And she says, it just started feeling again like it did before. And Julie's like,

no, no, no. We are like, it's not going to happen. It skipped you. It skipped us. We're fine. Just imagining a horse

with a blurry face with a McKinley shirt getting on the train. Like just. It all starts happening. But Julie does say, she's like, besides, you know,

if anything were to happen, it's going to happen to me first and then Kevin so you're totally fine until something happens to us and like ha ha ha okay you're right we're fine look over yeah enter Kevin Kevin is has been on the train the whole time they didn't see him he's in the corner and they're like oh no it's like go up to Kevin and when he's like what are you doing why are you on this train and he says are you okay you see him freaked out and then he goes oh god it's not happening again is it it is sweetie that's all we talk about that's literally the only thing that's happening cut to the rat and the food that the is eating the paste

drips onto the track which causes a spark which makes the this movie is about how fragile our infrastructure is yes a spark causes the you know how the tracks like a trail like shifts

to make it go one way or the other it shorts which makes it change in the wrong direction and immediately this subway car is just flying through the underground like just it starts shaking and flying so fast completely untethered to anything people are screaming Julie I think gets like thrown off the train Kevin's getting pushed

against the window and then he gets pushed out and his again gets chopped a hamburger style front half off and then the train comes to a screeching halt Wendy gets thrown out of the train onto the tracks comes to looks around oh my god oh my god everybody's dead and she's got her leg is broken so she can't move and she looks up and another train is coming barreling straight towards her she screams just as the train's about dinner she comes too back on the train seeing Kevin now that threw me for a loop and it shouldn't have it Once again They love to do that

Yeah yeah And I was like Oh They got me again Pull me twice You know And Kevin's like Oh my God

It just happened again Didn't it And so they go to pull the brakes You know stop the train Those breaks aren't working Nobody's answering And we hear Screech

Cut to black Crash Credits A cut to black I mean I guess We don't need to see it again we did just see it. Yeah, that would be

I guess pretty annoying to have to just watch it. And I was kind of surprised she died at the end but I was kind of glad for her because I felt like she just only living for her death at this point.

Although she did seem pretty good in that five months later considering it was only five years later. She had new friends and she was like she was doing great but no, she did presumably die. The one thing I saw that was maybe the ending that got changed

is they were maybe going to have the two characters. from Final Destination 2 that do survive also on the train oh that'd be fun to be like yeah they all die because the whole thing is deaf they always die they think they outsmarted death but they didn't right yeah anyway that was what they changed because people didn't like it I guess I again I could find no concrete evidence about what what the ending yeah exactly was which I was upset by I really really wanted to know yeah I mean it is I just don't know that everybody dies, but it also makes it as a franchise, a bummer that we can't get the same

actors, like, coming back because they are, they are currently making a new Final Destination movie, which I am excited for. And it's by the writer of Scream 5 and Scream 6, Guy Buse. Oh, wow. So I think it will be, I think it will be fun. I'm excited for it. What number Final Destination is? It'll be number six.

Wow. Six. So he wrote Scream 5. Two more of those. Oh, my. Well. But yeah, it's like I'd love for Devin Sawa to be somewhere. Would love for more Devin Sawa.

He died. He is dead. Would love for more Ryan Merriman, to be really honest. Yeah. Yeah. No, so they're all, yeah, they're all dead. I mean, I guess we didn't see the crash the second time. So you never know.

Yeah. Right. Sure. Maybe they live. Right. Maybe they lived. Yeah. probably not probably not how did you as someone who doesn't like scary movies but does

like scream and had not seen a final destination how how did you feel after you watched this movie i thought it was pretty fun i also i was not scared at all and it didn't stick with me in any way but i had a good time watching it and it was like i liked i liked the era and sort of like the choices they made so i feel like yeah talking about it now i'm like they just really didn't process it enough and that's like silly but you know it's kind of to be expected with a movie like this one's the third one they're like we kind of know what we're getting at yeah they really just i really felt especially the transition between two and three having seen two not too long going to be like oh they even they took even less plot they were just like that doesn't matter it really

doesn't matter yeah which makes me intrigued for how they'll do a somewhat reboot i suppose with this like new one what are they going to do i feel like our generation now like the way things are now, people are going to want more processing. I think so. Because I mean, because it's about just people just dying without any sort of, it's not a killer. It's not. Right.

I don't know. It feels like. Yeah. I feel like we might get that. We could get that. The new screams have been like more self, I mean, scream is a self-aware franchise, but it feels like they've been really like addressing what scream even is. So I am very curious to see how they deal with this one.

Yeah. Could be fun. I mean, sure, it will be fun. But how? How will it be fun? In what ways? So what death do we want to die if we had to die away in this movie? I feel like Ian, right?

Isn't his kind of fast and unexpected? He's kind of alive for a minute after he's been chopped. Do you know who's the fastest, Lewis, the head pumpkin, smash? Yeah, but that's kind of embarrassing. Because he's so, definitely embarrassing. Like, he's so cocky during it. I don't know. I feel like.

Maybe the engine to the back of the head guy? maybe because you have no idea you're just sitting there yeah he was about to get some fast food he's probably in a great great state of mind i don't know the horse seems kind of fun being dragged oh i guess the girl who got impaled that went pretty fast too yeah i'll tell you which one i don't want is the tanning that we can all probably rank that one last that's the worst and runner up is nail gun nail gun through the head yeah because again so many nails yeah you felt some of them yeah yeah oh yeah yeah oh she definitely felt some of them it took a lot of those to kill her okay yeah pass we'll pass on that one yes I'll take an engine to

the head yeah car car car engine fan which is so again what what I think happened yeah not certain yeah but potentially that potentially that wow honestly it happened so fast that I was like he's gone like I just wasn't like what was it it was pretty Pretty quick. Yeah. Yeah. Well, there it is. There's Final Destination 3.

It was very fun. It's very fun. It's a fun. And again, so fast. Just the quickest little movie that has ever happened. Yeah. It's a good time. Thank you guys for telling me about it.
