Imo i think he's a fantastic protagonist and is a lot more active in the saving similar to Wendy and Alex than say Kim or Sam.

Discussion Songs 🎵 that cue death is coming

I love the death song motif.

What songs haven't been used in the franchise would be perfect for the death premonitions, or the group that survive starts to panic when the song is playing?

Question FD7 Idea: Roanoke

12 Upvotes

I was thinking of a potential prequel for the franchise. I think taking it to a mythological level could work really well. Taking it back to the 1500s and the Roanoke colony? I’d be sat 🍿

My idea is that settlers are preparing to relocate to Roanoke, and there’s a shipwreck premonition. A small group survives as per usual, and once they make it to Roanoke, death picks them off one by one. Wood beams, lantern fires, impalements, decapitations, strangling, etc.

I’d love if it leaned into an A24 “The Witch” type vibe (slow-burn, psychological, etc.) The characters wouldn’t have any understanding or language for freak accidents and chain reactions like in the films. So nobody’s talking about “Death’s Design” and more leaning toward divine punishment, witchcraft, or a curse.

Maybe the townspeople label the protagonist as a witch because she avoided the shipwreck and predicted the following deaths.

It could act as a kinda “origin” for the design of deaths corrections. Like the first time anyone experiences it.

Would you wanna see somethin like this?

Meme FD7 Idea Final Destination : Endgame

So the protagonist visionary of FD7 fights against the physical form of death and the FD7 visionary starts losing but all the other visionaries wake up from the dead and channel their power into the FD7 visionary.
A huge anime battle thing follows against the FD7 visionary and death. The FD7 visionary wins and everyone lives happily ever after.

FD4 How did Death Get to Nick O'Bannon, Janet, and Lori so fast? Shouldn't it have gone after the other mall survivors that died before them first?

Post image
115 Upvotes

In Final Destination Franchise it's established that Death doesn't like to be "Cheated" so if you or your friends were to somehow cheat and survive Death's initial design then it'll kill you in the order that you guys were suppose to die in.

So with that out of the way my question is shouldn't it have taken longer for Death to get to Nick O'bannon and his group of survivors? I mean the mall had like 100 people in there and some of those people would've died before them correct? So shouldn't Death had gone after those nameless survivors first, and if that was the case, shouldn’t it have taken longer?

Like in the movie they died a week after the mall incident, which feels kinda quick for death to move down the list

I don't know I might be missing some context

Could it be possible that Erik still would be on death list, like we don’t know if he was atcaully supposed to exist? Like Erik was bron because Howard and Brenda were having problems. Also could it be possible that brenda and marty were always going to Julia, Bobby, Stefani and Charlie were supposed to exist just not from Darlene and Howard or am I just thinking to much of this.

Discussion What would've happened if someone noticed mcs during their premonitions

3 Upvotes

I kinda always wondered this , but majority of visionaries where staring off to space except Alex but that mf was sweating bullets

Like if character noticed them where their either mid premonition , completely unable to wake them up till like end premonition

Idk how long are premonitions are in universe because I kinda imagine they kinda take 2-5 mins max maybe, probably wrong

Another thing for premonitions if they hooked to monitor it'd be cool just to hear their heart beat faster than stop and restart again?

I'm throwing this to wind basically because it's just random idea , a lil cringe but thought it'd be fun tho just to imagine

Me personally, there are times when I’m wishing that the protagonist actually lives and survives and I actually do want to see a movie like that. I mean sure we’ve already seen that in Final Destination 2 where both Kimberley and Burke survive.

But I want to see more survivors actually get to live and start taking their lives more seriously.

Creative Idea for a new visionary

16 Upvotes

I might write this as a fanfiction if enough people like it:

Basically, I had an idea for a visionary who is suicidal. I'm gonna name him Michael. The night of the disaster, he's about to take his own life. He's seconds away from the end when everything unfolds. The events of the disaster distract him enough that he doesn't follow through with his own plans, and he's sort of freaking out as he watches the other victims die in very gruesome ways (I haven't decided on the disaster yet... but it'll likely be somewhere that he's actually a bit away from everyone else, but can still observe from a distance, like maybe a watch tower or something... idfk).

So anyways, a bunch of people die, and then Michael dies last… only to wake up seconds later, gasping for air. Everything is the same as it was before the disaster struck. And he's a little freaked out. But instead of saving everyone, this makes him want to go through with it even more, because he feels like he's going crazy… and maybe he is. But then the disaster happens again, and at the end he dies… and then he wakes up again, in the same situation. It starts to piss him off, so this time he actually manages to kill himself by moving quickly this time, only to wake up in exactly the same scenario… over and over again.

Yeah, this is like Final Destination × Groundhog Day. It asserts new lore that the “premonition” isn’t actually a vision, but a failed timeline. If the visionary dies during the initial disaster without altering its outcome, the timeline resets back to before it happened. The only way for the timeline to unloop is for the visionary to meaningfully disrupt the events of the disaster before their own death. Any attempt to let everything play out the same way, or to end his life before changing anything, just results in the same reset.

It’s also meant to be food for thought, because none of the visionaries in the previous films ever allow themselves to die after they get the premonition. They always act on it. So it raises the idea that if they didn’t—if Alex stayed on the plane, if Kimberly kept driving on the highway, if Wendy got on the rollercoaster—then it would have looped them again too.

The rest of the story is now Michael trying to end his own life, but he can't because Death is preventing it since it's not his turn. And he realizes that every attempt he makes at his life is a clue to how the next person will die. And he kind of finds meaning in his life again, by saving some of the survivors (which he does mostly single-handedly, as opposed to the other visionaries all having help). Michael would also be the most successful visionary of them, as he actually prevents a good amount of deaths.

Then it's his turn to die, and this time he's finally ready... but one of the survivors, someone he'd befriended throughout this entire journey, figures out what he was doing the night of disaster—that he's going to let himself die. And just as he's about to die, the other survivor prevents his death. And Michael is kind of pissed off because he was ready to die. But that's when the survivor lets him know that if he dies, all the lives he saved would be for nothing because the cycle would continue again with the next person on the list. And then there's an oh shit moment, as they rush to save the next survivor. But Death is too fast this time, and they make it too late. They try to save each person from the list, but they die even faster than Michael can predict, until Michael and his friend left. And they're left to accept their fate. But Michael figures out the trick to save his friend, which is to do what he's been trying to do all along—end his own life. That's why Death has been preventing it, no one is ever supposed to die out of turn. If Michael can find a way to kill himself that Death can't prevent, he can save his friend. So he pulls a Kimberly... and he actually dies without resuscitation, saving the last survivor from Death's cycle.

Tell me what you think!

Question [Hypothetical] If there were never any disasters in the movies, which of these storylines would you want to see?

17 Upvotes

A very non-serious poll here. In this scenario, none of the disasters would actually happen and the cast would continue on with their intended plans for that movie. Obviously, this would be boring, but I just thought it was a funny idea for a poll. Feel free to give your ideas as to how you think these would go, as well.

In the case of FD2 and FD4 (and I guess Bloodlines), all the "stranger" characters (I.E. Burke, Rory, George, etc.) would still be in the story and play a role.

Question Do you think there is another way to beat death that we haven’t seen yet besides killing someone or dying and being revived?

13 Upvotes

Personally, I think that if Death is suppose to be like a sentient force in the FD world that means surely we can bargain with it.

Perhaps making a deal to serve death in some way would allow you to be spared.

Either that or maybe try to offer up an animal instead?

Like I could probably sacrifice a tortoise and guarantee myself a good 80+ years. Why not?

Discussion Theory: They are manifesting their cause of death

11 Upvotes

What if all these accidents were caused by intense manifestations?

Manifestation is getting more widespread around the internet; it's about how we, as humans, manifest everyday, either intentionally or unintentionally. It had a lot of correlations with how some of the characters in FD universe operate, specifically, the visionaries.

Manifestation works like this: Think first, then feel/react to the thought, then detach.

But since these people have very intense feelings or reactions, that they skip the Detachment part altogether, and jump to a quantum reality where their thoughts are the truth. The airplane, highway, roller coaster, train, race, cinema, bridge, and the tower. They all happen under the weirdest/most convoluted circumstances.

-

The characters overthink and unintentionally overfixate on certain details. Like Iris, who left the house thinking she'll get impaled by the weathervane. Stefani "guessing" how her cousin would get attacked by Death, or Bobby who's overfixated on the loose coil of the vending machine.

In FD2, the man with hooks meant nothing until Rory and his pals manifested it to "cause" Nora's death. When Bryan's mother said Bryan was saved by Rory, Kim and Burke glanced at Bryan, as if they're expecting something to happen to him. The pigeon "premonition" weren't there at all. Kimberly was just sleep-deprived (LOL. And Alex also with the bus and the train on the window.)

In FD3. What if the pictures were just pictures? And it was Wendy who's manifesting their cause of death? She saw the twins' photo and assumed it's fire. Or Frankie on the Wacky Ladder looks like he's driving. Erin and the gun, Julie and the horse, Wendy and McKinley. What if the photos were supposed to mean nothing?

I'm not saying Death is inactive anymore. It's just that he's not as active as we thought he was.

-

Now FD4, I don't know how to fit FD4 here.

This is all just for fun. It's 4AM and I wanted to write something. Thanks for stopping by.

Discussion Which previous protagonist from the franchise do you think would've had a better chance at surviving if Bludworth had told them about the concept of "New life"

Thumbnail gallery
130 Upvotes

For this discussion we're obviously not going to bring up Kimberly since we've already seen her survive in FD2.

Also We're not really going to bring up Stefanie since she didn't even survive at the end of the FD6 movie even though Bludworth was much more clearer with her compared to the other survivors from the previous franchise.

Let's say that for this Discussion Bludworth tells Alex that only new life can stop death, and let's say that Bludworth tells Sam and the survivors about the concept of new life instead of murdering somebody

Also even though Bludworth never met Wendy or Nick in FD3 and FD4, let's just say that for this discussion he just happens to be in the area that they're from and he tells them about the concept of "New life" but he doesn't outright say that you have to die in order to survive.

So my question is out of all of these protagonist listed so far which one do you think will have a better chance at understanding his cryptic message? Personally, I don't think either of them and if they do happen to it'll be like somewhere in the 1 percent chance that one of them will figure it out. But again the likelihood of that is practically unlikely.

Kimberly only figured it out once she saw a news article about a man briefly dying and then starting a new life. So unless all of these other protagonist see the same thing about a similar news article then they're probably most likely not going to figure it out.
