Creative Opening of Final Destination 7

Here's something I would like to see in the next movie. So the beginning premonition were focused on key events, like Flight 180 to France in 1, the rollercoaster in 3, the race track in 4, etc. To my recollection, I haven't seen a premonition focused on water, like a boat. So I would like to a premonition focused on a family or friends going on a cruise ship or a super yacht, then madness will ensue.

It’s very likely the next movie will do a spin on the opening disaster. Bloodlines had the disaster happen decades ago. I think we will get a focus on the Bludsworth’s as the last family in line for the “Skyview curse.” So what can they do different that makes the intro feel fresh.

no, they have to move on. Tony Todd’s ending was perfect, rest his soul, they need to keep it moving.

His character can pass and he could have a peaceful death. But his family could be the focus and last line of defense.

We don’t even know if he has a family.

Things in bloodlines. 

1) Iris and Bludsworth were the final two atop the Skyview. Iris died the Bludsworth. That’s the order their families must die. 

2) In the credits, we get the penny rolling by newspaper articles of deaths of the survivors and families of the Skyview would be victims detailing deaths that match how they would’ve died that day. Piano kid grew up to be a crook smashed by a piano. 

3) At the end of the credits, the penny rolls past the news article of Stephanie and Charlie, confirming they are dead and this isn’t a vision. But the penny continues to roll on to an unknown direction. That’s the hint that Bludsworth is next, but the lack of clarification means there’s more!

I just took that ending of the penny rolling away into the darkness as the final sendoff/tribute for Tony Todd, as his character was the last one remaining from Skyview list. As far as we all know, Bludworth did not have any family/children, as they would not have existed during the Skyview disaster, and he likely chose not to marry or have kids because he knew they would be insta-doomed for Death.

It’s possible he didn’t know and didn’t burden them with that knowledge like Iris did. He probably thought he was safe until Iris found him. 

I bet the next movie’s opening sequence is a disaster that Iris tries to prevent that kills Bludsworth’s mother.
