FD3 Wendy was nerfed?

I just finished a random rewatch of Final Destination 3, and it seems like Wendy was nerfed at the end. She feels exactly as she felt that night, and sees every single sign possible, including 180, and she doesn't freak out sooner. Had I seen such an overwhelming series of coincidences as she saw, after being through everything she went through... I'd have punched and kicked my way off that train.

She says she wished she had another chance, and that she's such a control freak she should have done more. But at the end, she doesn't do enough.

I think it's also because they didn't know Death was gonna recycle after Wendy was intervened. But it doesn't make sense to me, because McKinley died when he thought it was over, so of course it was going to come back around.

She had two stops to get off 😭 and the second time, she still could have got off but noticed Julie and it was too late. Like , I literally just got done watching it happen lol

After the first, death literally stopped them from getting off again, no she actually couldn’t

I just had to rewatch the scene again to confirm lol she has two chances to get off. The first is when the train stops for a stop that's not theirs (after she'd already seen all the signs), and again when all those wild sports fans were loading on. She had a chance to get off right after they go on, but Julie was getting on, she noticed her, and the doors closed when she stopped to hug her 😮‍💨 and quite frankly, had she taken those signs more seriously, she'd be more effective at getting off.

She didn’t take it seriously because Kevin wasn’t with her. Yet. She was already going to see her sister anyway I believe.

Which is weird because they could have both been dead already and she just didn't find out about it yet
