There are a few subtle clues that Final 5 was a prequel/took place in 2000 instead of 2011; Isaac's cell phone, the 1994 gymnastics banner, the coupon expiring in 2001, the bulky tv in Sam's apartment, & the "I see dead people" reference since The 6th Sense aired a year earlier.
That final scene in the plane when they realized they couldn't escape their fate was so heartbreaking. As soon as this movie ended, I had to start it from the beginning again to see how masterfully they hid that twist. Managing to hide any technological indications of the time and dropping just enough hints that it all made sense at the end was SO well done. This truly was a redemption from FD4.
or they read the comment from the asshat that spoiled it in the last movie and did a good job of acting like they werent sure which is more likely than guessing its a prequel from the mention of paris
I mean it's been 13 years since the movie released and is was the most thing everyone talked about it on the internet, Greg most likely catch a youtube video about it or hear it from passing but didn't wanna spoil anything
With the death (and Alex being saved from death) at the end of the first film and the kid at the grill in the second film, it seems as though Death kind of moves on and forgets the survivors until they start talking about it again and discussing who got skipped, who should be next in line, etc. And then Death like "Oh crap I forgot about those guys" and comes back for them.
There's a theory that Death moves on down the list, or even to another list, before coming back to arrange the death of a previous survivor. The farmer kid who died in 2 is revealed to have died near the end of an entirely DIFFERENT list belonging to "the infamous Lakeview fire" according to an article in The Final Destination that Nick uses for proof. The article also oddly refers to Kimberly and Officer Burke as Pam Smith and Officer Craig Perry respectively.
I think you guys got the twist early because all of the movies were still fresh in your minds as opposed to those who waited 11 years for this sequel. Good for you!! 😂
I think I speak for everyone when I say y’all need to find another franchise to team up and watch. The chemistry is so much fun. Also love this movie so much the twist blew my mind first time watching
Wholeheartedly agree. I throughly enjoyed watching a franchise I enjoy and have watched many times; through one or my favorite subscribers and their team. It's interesting seeing different view points and reactions from my own. Thanks for making my month better with these movie reactions. Much love! 🤟
5 is easily the best one in the franchise for me, the characters were interesting and felt real and Peter's descent was well done, the bridge scene was also one of the scariest premonitions next to the Rollercoaster, not to mention the freaking prequel twist at the end, getting that after 11 years was so awesome, don't know how 6 is gonna top it.
If someone started screaming that we're all going to die if we don't follow them, would I follow? Well, I still actively avoid log trucks thanks to part 2. So, yeah probably.
I would hands-down get off. My only unless would be if I had somewhere I had to be and couldn't just get another flight for. For example, if I was on the plane because a relative was about to pass away. If it's a trip or something I can just reschedule and get on a new one. Regarding, someone freaking out on a plane as my example.
I honestly think I'd stay, panic notwithstanding. Assuming it'd be a Final Destination-like situation, if I got off I'd probably have a MUCH worse death down the line. None of them have ever escaped, anyway. They all eventually died in horrible ways.
@@WillPutYouInYourPlace12386This is true! Planes would have to be deboarded and then security checked + flightworthy assessment. Trains and other public transportation systems will have similar procedures. The risk to reputation by lax safety would come down heavily on the company - well, in the UK at least
Most likely a mix of match cutting and green screens. Films 90 percent of the time have a few extra angles of certain scenes and when it comes to editing choose some over others. So they probably saw the best take from this angle and constructed the scene to best match it to place him in the same time and place
After the plot twist reveal of the film I had the thought that maybe "originally" in the first film the plane crashed because Sam and Molly cheated death.
Really just Sam since Molly was never meant to die on the bridge. So in a way Sam is the cause of her death, had he died she would’ve never got on that plane.
I agree FD3 was the best among all of them, Mary Elizabeth Winstead really carried the whole movie she gave a really good performance plus the Director James Wong made the movie look timeless with it's cinematography and color palette and it had the best feeling of grief and creep from it's haunting soundtrack.
5 is such an improvement over 4, its insane how they managed to bring so much tension during most of the kill offs, and that twist is still one of my favourites, the way they loop back to 1 is ingenius. loved watching you both watch these films, would love to see you both watch more stuff together!
15:50 Greg you're definitely on to something. The biggest fan theory in the saga is that he could be death himself. Him being an owner of a funeral home kinda supports it and plus how mysterious he is and he knows more than he's letting on for the cast after the first act. Producers say he's not but it's kinda cool how it's left up in the air on exactly WHO he is because he seems to really know what's going on.
Really? I always thought he was Death…the way he’s so offended, the fact he knows he had a vision when that information is still with the cops it wasn’t released…so idk maybe they fumbled and didn’t realize how obvious they created the Grim Reaper😂
I think he definitely is. Because he is the one that tells them the different rules each time. Why ? The rules are never useful. They never work. He is Death , and the reason he tells them bullshit rules is because he thinks it is funny to watch them struggle.
I prefer the theory that he's Charon, the ferryman for the river Styx. I feel Death would be offended by their mere existence. But, William Bludworth (yes, that's his name), only got offended once. In Final Destination 1, the survivors talked to him while he was working on Todd, he grits his teeth and snaps at them "You don't even want to f@#€ with that Mac daddy". Then, he returns his normal cool/creepy demeanour.
The gore factor felt upped for this one, which is saying something! Greg's call on flight 180 at the end was seriously impressive. I've had so much fun watching the two of you share these movies. Definitely felt there was a bit more welly to the character development in this one and the bridge collapse scene at the start rocked! I'd love you guys to react to the CUBE TRILOGY the gore/mystery factor is just as entertaining and for a lower budget franchise, it packs a punch I think you would both dig. Sending appreciation from sunny England 😍
This was a bunch of fun to go through this entire franchise with all you guys! Thanks! BTW, "Have high winds ever caused that much structural damage……?” Yes….. yes it has….😢unfortunately/infamously. (buildings too…)
Here in Wa state we had one of the most famous. Galloping Gertie's collapse used to be a standard film for all potential engineers to watch ....there are still vids here on yt of it rppling in the wind. I also remember a storm when i was young that took out the Hood Canal bridge (1979) in 85mph winds w/120mph gusts. LOL....very memorable for me as I was walking to school in a dress 😅
I feel like Sam saw the end of the fight scene, because it did happen so fast so he probably saw some people fighting and getting escorted off the plane. He probably didn't hear and recognize that Alex had said the plan was going to explode. When you watch FD1, you kind of realize that he shouts it, but towards his peers and towards the front. Sam and Molly are on in the back to the right of the plane, so it's very possible that they heard the commotion, looked over and saw Alex fighting that one guy and then them getting escorted off the plane. It wasn't until the plane took off and the flight attendant said something that he realized what had happened
That gymnastics death … bro I can never keep my eyes on the screen I have seen all these movies a million times and I can never stay watching it alway look away
And this is why this one is my Favorite next to 3 and 1 Because we got more Character Development and story before the kills. They made the kills the background for the story’s purpose. And it all looked good. All the Bad wrap that the 4th movie gave them, they wanted to make that up. That twist is still the Best reaction I got in Theaters all the gasps and my OH SHIT Moment! One of my favorite movies of 2011 next Ghost Protocol! Bring on FD6…
The downside to the “twist” at the end is it’s another example of using actors work without paying, apparently Dewon Sawa didn’t even know he was in this movie until the premiere and he definitely didn’t get paid anything.
I get that you think it sucks that they did that, but I'd point out that it is a strong lesson to read and consider the implications of any contract before signing. His FD1 contract stipulated that the studio owned the footage and rights to his image in the film and gave them the right to use it in the future. He assumed it was for advertising the film, but despite being questionable behavior, perfectly legal. The other technicality is his pay for the first film means he did get paid for the scene. It is fairly standard as the rights owners are typically the only ones that get paid for a film clip used in another film. There was a clip from Halloween used in the first Scream film that featured Jamie Lee Curtis and just like here she got nothing. I understand creating a new scene, like FD 5, feels different, but in practice it is the same concept. He was paid for the work he did, and unlike Back to the Future 2 they used a clip, and didn't use makeup to create a double for an actor that didn't return. It is standard in Hollywood that the studios can use footage at will in the future. Really in most industries where an individual helps bring someone else's IP to life. Models get paid, photographers own the image, session musician plays on a recording the band (or label) owns the recording, an artist is commissioned to paint a picture they don't get a cent when the commissioner monetizes the digital reproduction. Why should he get paid twice for a single job?
omg i can’t wait to see you’re reaction to the twist ending UGH❤❤ Edit: also shoutout to Greg for catching the twist so quickly, most of us didn’t notice till we see a big clue in a characters hand or till the end of the movie.
In all fairness I guessed it was a prequel early on. But I didnt guess it would end on the plane till like 20-30 min before it happened there. At first I thought (didnt vocalize it) that maybe itll link to the same paris ending moment of the first one
I kinda hate that you guys almost immediately predicted it was a prequel lol. It's such a good twist and I was hoping for that "OH SHIT" moment at the end. But I think it helped that you guys watched these so close together. I think a lot other viewers had the benefit of forgetting some things when you watched them as they came out. You and Roxy are a fantastic team though...so much chemistry there. We all love John...but I think we have a new dynamic duo here lol.
I think Tony Todd’s character is a metaphor for death. If you notice every time he’s on screen he speaks to the character that’s escaped death’s design. Nobody in the background ever sees or notices him. Nobody else sees him other than the people that death is coming after. Also since he’s not quite a good guy & not quite a bad guy either it shows that he’s in the middle & is kinda just fair with everyone because he’s not a normal person, he’s unworldly & god-like which is why he kinda helps & kinda doesn’t because he allows death to get them when we all know that he knows more than he leads on which means he’s part of the design in some way shape or form. I believe he’s a metaphor for death, I think he is Death/the grim reaper.
@@ThatDorkyReviewShow I mean that’s certainly a possibility but honestly I hope they never answer the question & just leave it up to people’s imaginations
Wow, I can't believe the stars aligned so that Roxy and Greg's FINAL Final Destination reaction would upload on my birthday! Thank you guys so much for doing these, they've brought me a lot of joy and laughter over the last few weeks😊🫶💝
Greg bro, I definitely hear you and understand what you’re saying but remember this is Pre 9/11. Most people didn’t take outbursts like that seriously enough. Hell my gf and I were watching My Big Fat Greek Wedding and the main character just walks up to her love interests class while he’s teaching and that was Pre Columbine where you could do something like that
There are hints in the movie that it could be a prequel (or at least that the events are from 2000 and not 2011 when the movie was released). None of the cellphones shown are smart phones. The massage coupon briefly shows its expiration date in the year 2000.
It was fun revisiting all these films again. One of the better horror franchises that’s holds up really well. I hope this becomes a thing that Roxy and Greg watch more horror films together as y’all are hilarious together.
I saw this movie literally 1 month before my Lasik and asked my doctors to check every thing twice before starting and I explained it was because of this movie. They told me I was the 2nd guy to be freaked out with lasik because of this movie hahaha
The way Roxy and Greg picked the right songs out of thin air was awesome! You two were the best part of all five reviews. Clearly we all as a society have phobias towards doctor and dentist visits. The bridge in the 5th movie if back in Vancouver, Canada. It's called the Lions Gate Bridge. It's quite old and is regularly under construction.
I really think Tony Todd's character gave everyone different theories so he can see if anything beats death. Can you imagine him in the end credits with a list of ways to beat death and being like "Nope." and crossing off the one they just tried. Essentially all these kids are guinea pigs 😂
I think when they said "take someone's life" didn't mean killing someone at random. I think they were referring to switch places with someone else at the exact moment death would have killed you so that you'll get the time they would have lived.
I subscribe to the fan theory that Tony Todd is the physical embodiment of death & just likes to taunt the survivors and watch them try to save one another eventho he can kill them anytime & he gives the main protagonist a vision as a game he likes to play
As someone who has had acupuncture I can tell you that the needles are half the diameter of a human hair. The bigger looking needles are for cinematic representation. Depending on where on the body they're placed, you really can't move. There are muscles and nerves under the muscles and nerves, and if the wrong ones are hit then it can cause a bigger problem. I have a bad shoulder and felt so much better after each session.
They almost all look like nails instead of needles. Definitely for cinematic effect. Except... that one she places in the 3rd eye, that one looked real.
I've gotten to help do acupuncture on animals (I worked at a Vet Hospital) and they are the tiniest needles imaginable. It took forever locating them on the floor if the animal accidentally shook some off. They're so small you can barely see them for sure! We had to make sure we counted how many we put on, so we could count to make sure we retrieved them all too.
I liked the movie a lot, but my main reason for this comment is that I think you two should have your own spin off channel as you are my FAVOTITE movie reactor team on TH-cam! You both seem like you get very invested in the movies and bring up a lot of points nobody else would ever think of. Plus, your banter back and forth is so funny...Just think about it. I think many others would agree with me...
Sawa wrote "I never got paid a cent for Final Destination 5. They didn’t even tell me I was in it when they invited me to the premiere. In the first contract for part one there was a section that stated they owned the footage and could use it in the future. I assumed for press. I was wrong. This has nothing to do with the filmmakers by the way. I loved ‘FD5.’ I love them all to be completely honest. And I’m super excited to see number six."
High winds can in fact bring down a bridge. The phenomenon is known as aeroelastic flutter, which causes an object to vibrate and oscillate around. Tacoma Narrow Bridge collapse as a prime example.
Yo Greg what a callout thinking its a prequel from that Paris reference at the beginning! You guys are pretty good at seeing the future on this series about seeing the future
Craig perry said that it won’t be completely rebooting the franchise It’ll just focus on the first responders Maybe some of the characters could deal with some the accidents that occurred during some of the main films Like maybe seeing them from their perspectives
just wanted to update you that this idea was scrapped a while ago. Its now going to focus on a family 60 years later after a woman survives a disaster sometime in the 1960's
Part of the journey is the end, in this case it seems we've reached our Final Destination. What a wild fun ride down memory lane, can't wait for the next franchise!
This is such a _bittersweet_ video/reaction for me to watch On the one hand, I’m thrilled that y’all have finally made it to number 5, as I think that you guys will _really_ enjoy it. But at the same time I’m super bummed that, with this, your Final Destination reactions will be over. (Until Final Destination 6 comes out. Whenever the hell that’s gonna end up happening.) Which is a _major_ bummer! Oh well! Such is life! Thanks for all of the super entertaining reactions, you two! (Also, out of all of the heinous AF death scenes in ALL of the F.D. films, the gymnastics scene/death is the ONE that I simply canNOT fucking do. I truly can’t tell you why that is but I have to look away every time.)
they pulled off the twist in this one SO. WELL. i love this entire franchise. i'd say the 5th one is probably my 3rd favorite.. with the 1st at #1 and the 3rd at #2
When I think of this movie, I think of the ending twist and the gymnastics scene. So good! I was so surprised how much I ended up liking this one. I'd probably say 1, 5, 3, 2, 4.
The Office madness is real: - the male lead is Jan's assistant Hunter - the bald guy is literally Tod Packer - Molly is the name of Jan's new assistant
I'm so sad this series is already ending! I loved watching these again with you two. Hope for more horror movie series reactions sometime with y'all again.
14:00 you might wanna check up on the Tacoma Narrows Bridge. It was opened for traffic in July 1940 and collapsed about 4 months later. The suspension bridge started to oscillate due to the winds and the frequency of this oscillation matched the bridge's own resonance frequency. This led to the amplitude of the oscillation to increase until the bridge came apart. The bridge is therefore mentioned in basically all physics books that discuss this mechanical resonsance as a cautionary tale. But since that process took far longer than here in the movie there is indeed video footage of the collaps.
Another bridge collapsed in real life from different causes, but wasn't sabotage or anything, just combination of factors. The Mothman Prophecies (20002) depicts it. Richard Gere starred in it, and it has supernatural elements.
Based on the leaked plot of the 6th film - “As a group of first responders escapes death's grasp, they start to be killed by increasingly unlikely and killer mishaps” - It kinda feels like the twist will be one of the characters if not the main character will be revealed as the young Tony Todd. I mean his job in this film felt like a spoiler for the next one if we’re gonna take the leaked FD6 plot as a fact. If that’s the case, though, we’d be watching in a different angle. Because we already know he lived. We’d just see How.
5 is a better movie than 4. That was an interesting twist in the end. My ranking for all five movies. 1. The original FD 2. FD 3 3. FD 2 4. FD 5 5. FD 4
Greg. If you're interested in what likely inspired the disaster sequence, check out the _actual_ Tacoma Narrows Bridge collapse. Yes, winds can create that effect on a suspension bridge... in fact, they kinda down played it. Seriously, it's insane footage! That disaster forced architects to rethink bridge design to avoid what's called 'resonance.'
Alex (FD1), Kimberly (FD2), and Wendy (FD3) were in a constant state of anguish over the loss of their friends and suffered from survivor’s guilt in their respective films. They were also incredibly paranoid and felt tortured by their visions, especially after figuring out the consequences of surviving the first initial death scene. You cannot say the same about the main characters of these last 2. I think that’s my main complaint with this one and something they could’ve improved from the 4th going into this final one.
I don't think the premonitions are send by something so they can really cheat Death. Everyone always die either way. It's just Death being bored and giving one person a vision so it can play a bit more with them.
I think we will find put more in the next movie, there has to be a reason certain people are able to see premonitions other than death toying with them jumani style ....I believe there's sonething like an angel of life and death and life is the the one trying to help people live ... I want them to dive into if this has been happening back in the days with other events too etc
While Candace’s death definitely had good buildup, personally thought the way she died was a little bit overkill. I still don’t get how her leg snapped from the fall. It would’ve been fine if it was just her neck and maybe her back. It was like adding extra details that didn’t need to be added
Wow guys that was quick! I honestly thought it would take about 2 weeks or more because of your schedule. Thanks for your reaction I can’t wait to see it
Greg I see what you're saying at the end about the lack of panic on the plane, but also keep in mind that this was a year before 9/11, and plane security was not nearly as strong or fortified as it is today. Idk maybe I'm making excuses, but I always thought that's why the whole plane wasn't evacuated after Devin Sawa said that in the first movie. Loved the reaction, can't wait for more :)
Oh c'mon Greg.....the beginning you said you wouldn't get off the bus with someone freaking out, but you would freak out about the plane at the end. 🤣🤣🤣
Been waiting for this reaction! Loved it love the two of you! and Greg! calling out it was a prequel and then later on the two of you predicting the ending! That was impressive! Also on what you said about the only people that live are the ones from 2, so there’s an alternate ending for the third film in where there’s a newspaper article about the main characters from 2 falling into a woodchipper
Just recently rewatched this and in hindsight, it’s pretty brilliant how well the filmmakers hid that it was a prequel. Rewatching it, you pick up on stuff like how all the cars in the parking lot in the beginning and on the bridge are 80s, 90s, and very early 2000s models, the tv on the bus is an analog signal that loses reception, the few people you see on cell phones have flip phones, the detective asks if they saw any strangers talking on a pay phone (where would you even find those in 2011?), the office building is like a clone from Office Space, maybe the most recent song on the radio is Everclear, and the lead dude pulls out a Discman when he’s getting on the plane.
Great prediction that the ending is the beginning of 1! They drop hints throughout the film and easter eggs to the past films as well. Loved this journey through all 5 films. My personal ranking is 3, 5, 2, 1, 4. Also, if he's open to it, would be fun to see you interview the producer, Craig at some point.
I'm so bummed you guys caught the twist so soon lol. But that's likely 'cause all the movies were still so fresh on your guys' minds, unlike how it was for the rest of us. But I definitely still had fun with you two anyway! :D
Greg to answer your question about high-winds doing any kind of structural damage to a bridge, the answer is a big fat YES! There have been bridges that collapsed due to very windy days. Granted bridges built nowadays are more structurally sound compared to those from the past, but yes, it has happened.
On the topic of Final destination 2 and the survivors, there is an alternate ending to Final Destination 3, and a newspaper reveals that both the cop and girl from FD2 died after falling into a wood chipper at a hardware store, so no one has survived yet. Loved the reaction :)
Well since that was an alternate ending and not a real ending, it’s technically not a canon ending but it can be but if anything, Kimberly and Burke are the only two to survive
Where would you rank this one?!

HOW IS THIS COMMENT POSTED OLDER THAN THE VIDEO UPLOAD
There are a few subtle clues that Final 5 was a prequel/took place in 2000 instead of 2011; Isaac's cell phone, the 1994 gymnastics banner, the coupon expiring in 2001, the bulky tv in Sam's apartment, & the "I see dead people" reference since The 6th Sense aired a year earlier.
Have thoroughly enjoyed watching you and Roxys reactions to this film franchise, would love to see you both react to more movie franchises
1,2,5,3,4
The first two will always scar me because I watch them as kid in theaters
Watch "Blood Red Sky " it's good 👍
That final scene in the plane when they realized they couldn't escape their fate was so heartbreaking. As soon as this movie ended, I had to start it from the beginning again to see how masterfully they hid that twist. Managing to hide any technological indications of the time and dropping just enough hints that it all made sense at the end was SO well done. This truly was a redemption from FD4.
If you pause it on the spa ticket it gives another hint as to when this movie takes place. So clever
Yeah, I agree. Let's just pretend Final Destination 4 doesn't exist 😂.
I noticed that some of the tech was outdated, but didn't put it together.
It's a lot easier to miss now that ALL of the movies are dated.
wait a minute, they hid technological indications??!? how so?
There was a cell phone with a cheap (early) ringtone, in one of the first scenes of the movie.
the immediate catch on it being a prequel just from the paris mention was actually impressive!
IKR? And I was a little sad he caught that so soon.
they have been watching them back to back, everyone else had years between these movies so was less chance of it clicking.
or they read the comment from the asshat that spoiled it in the last movie and did a good job of acting like they werent sure which is more likely than guessing its a prequel from the mention of paris
I mean it's been 13 years since the movie released and is was the most thing everyone talked about it on the internet, Greg most likely catch a youtube video about it or hear it from passing but didn't wanna spoil anything
one of the few times I got a guess right haha
Candace's death has to be the best scene in the entire franchise. The amount of tension in that scene is just 👌🏻

True
With the death (and Alex being saved from death) at the end of the first film and the kid at the grill in the second film, it seems as though Death kind of moves on and forgets the survivors until they start talking about it again and discussing who got skipped, who should be next in line, etc. And then Death like "Oh crap I forgot about those guys" and comes back for them.
Death is a busy guy sometimes
Could be one of those “speaking it into existence” kind of moves
There's a theory that Death moves on down the list, or even to another list, before coming back to arrange the death of a previous survivor.

5 is easily the best one in the franchise for me, the characters were interesting and felt real and Peter's descent was well done, the bridge scene was also one of the scariest premonitions next to the Rollercoaster, not to mention the freaking prequel twist at the end, getting that after 11 years was so awesome, don't know how 6 is gonna top it.
For me 1 and 5 is the Best. 1 is full of originality while this movie is characters.
If someone started screaming that we're all going to die if we don't follow them, would I follow?
Well, I still actively avoid log trucks thanks to part 2. So, yeah probably.
I would hands-down get off. My only unless would be if I had somewhere I had to be and couldn't just get another flight for. For example, if I was on the plane because a relative was about to pass away. If it's a trip or something I can just reschedule and get on a new one. Regarding, someone freaking out on a plane as my example.
ABSOLUTELY
Well also today if someone yelled that everyone would be evacuated
I honestly think I'd stay, panic notwithstanding. Assuming it'd be a Final Destination-like situation, if I got off I'd probably have a MUCH worse death down the line. None of them have ever escaped, anyway. They all eventually died in horrible ways.

I wish Greg didn’t predict it so early so it would’ve had a greater impact on the twist for them. I wanted to see their jaws drop in disbelief
now THIS is the one i’ve been waiting for, i absolutely love the twist at the ending and still am curious on how they filmed it
Most likely a mix of match cutting and green screens. Films 90 percent of the time have a few extra angles of certain scenes and when it comes to editing choose some over others. So they probably saw the best take from this angle and constructed the scene to best match it to place him in the same time and place
Ugh always sucks when someone catches the twist so soon

@@jjosiah1010they use an unused footage (diferent angle) from the first movie

Was so distracted by Peter looking exactly like young Tom Cruise.
After the plot twist reveal of the film I had the thought that maybe "originally" in the first film the plane crashed because Sam and Molly cheated death.
Really just Sam since Molly was never meant to die on the bridge. So in a way Sam is the cause of her death, had he died she would’ve never got on that plane.
@@SinSinny She wasn't meant to die on the bridge, but she was meant to die on the plane 😜
@@KierrokCycloneShe was gonna live if Sam didn’t survive, since he survived Sam saved Molly from getting killed.
It also goes back to the second movie where most of the survivors from the highway skipped death too because of the events of the first movie
All a ripple effect.
I agree FD3 was the best among all of them, Mary Elizabeth Winstead really carried the whole movie she gave a really good performance plus the Director James Wong made the movie look timeless with it's cinematography and color palette and it had the best feeling of grief and creep from it's haunting soundtrack.
5 is such an improvement over 4, its insane how they managed to bring so much tension during most of the kill offs, and that twist is still one of my favourites, the way they loop back to 1 is ingenius.
loved watching you both watch these films, would love to see you both watch more stuff together!
The screw part was too much lol, the tension was so strong i felt it in my foot.
15:50 Greg you're definitely on to something. The biggest fan theory in the saga is that he could be death himself. Him being an owner of a funeral home kinda supports it and plus how mysterious he is and he knows more than he's letting on for the cast after the first act. Producers say he's not but it's kinda cool how it's left up in the air on exactly WHO he is because he seems to really know what's going on.
Yeah I always saw him as death himself
Really? I always thought he was Death…the way he’s so offended, the fact he knows he had a vision when that information is still with the cops it wasn’t released…so idk maybe they fumbled and didn’t realize how obvious they created the Grim Reaper😂
I think he definitely is. Because he is the one that tells them the different rules each time. Why ? The rules are never useful. They never work.
He is Death , and the reason he tells them bullshit rules is because he thinks it is funny to watch them struggle.
I prefer the theory that he's Charon, the ferryman for the river Styx. I feel Death would be offended by their mere existence. But, William Bludworth (yes, that's his name), only got offended once. In Final Destination 1, the survivors talked to him while he was working on Todd, he grits his teeth and snaps at them "You don't even want to f@#€ with that Mac daddy". Then, he returns his normal cool/creepy demeanour.
@@manxgirlI like this explanation better.. it would also make sense since he works at the morgue. Preps the bodies before sending them to Death
The gore factor felt upped for this one, which is saying something! Greg's call on flight 180 at the end was seriously impressive. I've had so much fun watching the two of you share these movies. Definitely felt there was a bit more welly to the character development in this one and the bridge collapse scene at the start rocked! I'd love you guys to react to the CUBE TRILOGY the gore/mystery factor is just as entertaining and for a lower budget franchise, it packs a punch I think you would both dig. Sending appreciation from sunny England 😍
This was a bunch of fun to go through this entire franchise with all you guys! Thanks! BTW, "Have high winds ever caused that much structural damage……?” Yes….. yes it has….😢unfortunately/infamously. (buildings too…)
Here in Wa state we had one of the most famous. Galloping Gertie's collapse used to be a standard film for all potential engineers to watch ....there are still vids here on yt of it rppling in the wind. I also remember a storm when i was young that took out the Hood Canal bridge (1979) in 85mph winds w/120mph gusts. LOL....very memorable for me as I was walking to school in a dress 😅
I feel like Sam saw the end of the fight scene, because it did happen so fast so he probably saw some people fighting and getting escorted off the plane. He probably didn't hear and recognize that Alex had said the plan was going to explode. When you watch FD1, you kind of realize that he shouts it, but towards his peers and towards the front. Sam and Molly are on in the back to the right of the plane, so it's very possible that they heard the commotion, looked over and saw Alex fighting that one guy and then them getting escorted off the plane. It wasn't until the plane took off and the flight attendant said something that he realized what had happened
Greg casually guessing the big twist in the first 20 mins was crazy
That gymnastics death … bro I can never keep my eyes on the screen I have seen all these movies a million times and I can never stay watching it alway look away
And this is why this one is my Favorite next to 3 and 1 Because we got more Character Development and story before the kills. They made the kills the background for the story’s purpose. And it all looked good. All the Bad wrap that the 4th movie gave them, they wanted to make that up. That twist is still the Best reaction I got in Theaters all the gasps and my OH SHIT Moment! One of my favorite movies of 2011 next Ghost Protocol! Bring on FD6…
The downside to the “twist” at the end is it’s another example of using actors work without paying, apparently Dewon Sawa didn’t even know he was in this movie until the premiere and he definitely didn’t get paid anything.
Damn. 😖 That’s fucked up.
To be fair he's in it for like 4 seconds but i get ur point
It’s archival footage so it’s the studios property and they don’t have to pay
I get that you think it sucks that they did that, but I'd point out that it is a strong lesson to read and consider the implications of any contract before signing.
His FD1 contract stipulated that the studio owned the footage and rights to his image in the film and gave them the right to use it in the future. He assumed it was for advertising the film, but despite being questionable behavior, perfectly legal.
The other technicality is his pay for the first film means he did get paid for the scene. It is fairly standard as the rights owners are typically the only ones that get paid for a film clip used in another film. There was a clip from Halloween used in the first Scream film that featured Jamie Lee Curtis and just like here she got nothing. I understand creating a new scene, like FD 5, feels different, but in practice it is the same concept.
He was paid for the work he did, and unlike Back to the Future 2 they used a clip, and didn't use makeup to create a double for an actor that didn't return. It is standard in Hollywood that the studios can use footage at will in the future. Really in most industries where an individual helps bring someone else's IP to life. Models get paid, photographers own the image, session musician plays on a recording the band (or label) owns the recording, an artist is commissioned to paint a picture they don't get a cent when the commissioner monetizes the digital reproduction.
Why should he get paid twice for a single job?
@@crashingimpulseyes they don’t have to but they should let him know lol
This one being a prequel is the reason why 4 is called The Final Destination
omg i can’t wait to see you’re reaction to the twist ending UGH❤❤
Edit: also shoutout to Greg for catching the twist so quickly, most of us didn’t notice till we see a big clue in a characters hand or till the end of the movie.
He figured it out at the beginning of this video, lol.
In all fairness I guessed it was a prequel early on. But I didnt guess it would end on the plane till like 20-30 min before it happened there. At first I thought (didnt vocalize it) that maybe itll link to the same paris ending moment of the first one
I kinda hate that you guys almost immediately predicted it was a prequel lol. It's such a good twist and I was hoping for that "OH SHIT" moment at the end. But I think it helped that you guys watched these so close together. I think a lot other viewers had the benefit of forgetting some things when you watched them as they came out. You and Roxy are a fantastic team though...so much chemistry there. We all love John...but I think we have a new dynamic duo here lol.
High winds can in fact collapse a suspension bridge. It requires very specific conditions, but it has happened.
I think Tony Todd’s character is a metaphor for death. If you notice every time he’s on screen he speaks to the character that’s escaped death’s design. Nobody in the background ever sees or notices him. Nobody else sees him other than the people that death is coming after. Also since he’s not quite a good guy & not quite a bad guy either it shows that he’s in the middle & is kinda just fair with everyone because he’s not a normal person, he’s unworldly & god-like which is why he kinda helps & kinda doesn’t because he allows death to get them when we all know that he knows more than he leads on which means he’s part of the design in some way shape or form. I believe he’s a metaphor for death, I think he is Death/the grim reaper.
What if he's the one who's secretly been giving them the visions
@@ThatDorkyReviewShow I mean that’s certainly a possibility but honestly I hope they never answer the question & just leave it up to people’s imaginations
@@packedentertainment2866 it's confirmed he's not death, and we'll get more of his origin and childhood in FD6
Wow, I can't believe the stars aligned so that Roxy and Greg's FINAL Final Destination reaction would upload on my birthday! Thank you guys so much for doing these, they've brought me a lot of joy and laughter over the last few weeks😊🫶💝
Happy birthday!
@@rohe1790 Thank you!🫂🩵
Happy birthday!🎉🎉
@@emiyae.6999 Thank you!!☺️🩵
happy birthday!!! 🎂
Greg bro, I definitely hear you and understand what you’re saying but remember this is Pre 9/11. Most people didn’t take outbursts like that seriously enough. Hell my gf and I were watching My Big Fat Greek Wedding and the main character just walks up to her love interests class while he’s teaching and that was Pre Columbine where you could do something like that
I loved this movie. One of the Biggest twist in a movie franchise
What was?
@@PickleBread355Did you finish the movie and/or reaction? The twist in this is awesome.
@@PickleBread355have you seen it fully yet? Or has it been awhile?
Biggest twist in a movie franchise? Really? A bigger twist than Vader and Luke?
@@LordLOC That is of course the biggest one ever.
Roxy during the whole gymnastics scene: 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅
I feel like that one guy looks way more like Tom Cruise than he does Christian Bale. If you plucked his eyebrows he’d be a dead ringer haha.
Greg nailed the ending at the very start😂
Yeah its annoying, went straight to the end after that no fun when someone predicts it so soon and then start looking for clues
There are hints in the movie that it could be a prequel (or at least that the events are from 2000 and not 2011 when the movie was released). None of the cellphones shown are smart phones. The massage coupon briefly shows its expiration date in the year 2000.
Man, you two have amazing on screen chemistry. I really like watching this lineup. Roxy is fun!
It was fun revisiting all these films again. One of the better horror franchises that’s holds up really well. I hope this becomes a thing that Roxy and Greg watch more horror films together as y’all are hilarious together.
A decade after watching this at the cinema...crazy how long it's been.
I saw this movie literally 1 month before my Lasik and asked my doctors to check every thing twice before starting and I explained it was because of this movie. They told me I was the 2nd guy to be freaked out with lasik because of this movie hahaha
How are your appointments going year after? You're not nervous now?
So excited for the 6th movie! Hopefully you guys get to see that when it comes out
Isn’t the 6 one going to be a reboot ?
@@monsterking1973no i heard it’s a continuation
@@monsterking1973shoot you can probably find Craig Perry commenting and ask him if it’s one or the other lol
@@monsterking1973 It was going to be a reboot, but recently it is supposedly just a continuation or a "requel" of sorts.
I’m hoping it focuses on Tony Todd’s character
19:00 - "... she's perky, she's fun, and now she's number one, ki-kick it Torrance, T-T-T-Torrance!" XD
The way Roxy and Greg picked the right songs out of thin air was awesome! You two were the best part of all five reviews. Clearly we all as a society have phobias towards doctor and dentist visits.
The bridge in the 5th movie if back in Vancouver, Canada. It's called the Lions Gate Bridge. It's quite old and is regularly under construction.
"Call 911? CANDICE....she's a pretzel" 😂
I feel like Roxy is in a constant state of stress watching these movies 😂
Love your chemistry XD we need more of you two lol
I really think Tony Todd's character gave everyone different theories so he can see if anything beats death. Can you imagine him in the end credits with a list of ways to beat death and being like "Nope." and crossing off the one they just tried. Essentially all these kids are guinea pigs 😂
I like to believe he's Death itself but the one thing they don't mention again in this film is the "other" force.
@@saylosrelyks8645it’s probably just death giving them visions because that makes it more fun
I think when they said "take someone's life" didn't mean killing someone at random. I think they were referring to switch places with someone else at the exact moment death would have killed you so that you'll get the time they would have lived.
I subscribe to the fan theory that Tony Todd is the physical embodiment of death & just likes to taunt the survivors and watch them try to save one another eventho he can kill them anytime & he gives the main protagonist a vision as a game he likes to play
I never clicked a video so fast!!! Favorite series this channel has done. Love you guys!!!
this was so fun to watch you guys with this series!!!! def gonna rewatch these bcs imma miss em
Been checking TH-cam everyday for this!!!! So glad to finish this journey with you guys ❤️
This movie is really good! The death scenes are great and the twist ending was so crazy! 👍
It’s personally my least favorite
Roxy: I hate when people shhh me it makes me wanna punch them in the face
Greg: shhhhh
Roxy: *visibly wants to punch greg in the face* 🤣🤣🤣
As someone who has had acupuncture I can tell you that the needles are half the diameter of a human hair. The bigger looking needles are for cinematic representation. Depending on where on the body they're placed, you really can't move. There are muscles and nerves under the muscles and nerves, and if the wrong ones are hit then it can cause a bigger problem.
I have a bad shoulder and felt so much better after each session.
They almost all look like nails instead of needles. Definitely for cinematic effect. Except... that one she places in the 3rd eye, that one looked real.
I've gotten to help do acupuncture on animals (I worked at a Vet Hospital) and they are the tiniest needles imaginable. It took forever locating them on the floor if the animal accidentally shook some off. They're so small you can barely see them for sure! We had to make sure we counted how many we put on, so we could count to make sure we retrieved them all too.
I liked the movie a lot, but my main reason for this comment is that I think you two should have your own spin off channel as you are my FAVOTITE movie reactor team on TH-cam! You both seem like you get very invested in the movies and bring up a lot of points nobody else would ever think of. Plus, your banter back and forth is so funny...Just think about it. I think many others would agree with me...
40:19 “I just want you to know I know.”
If words could express how much I appreciate things like this… lmfao
Lmao just needed to call it out
Sawa wrote "I never got paid a cent for Final Destination 5. They didn’t even tell me I was in it when they invited me to the premiere. In the first contract for part one there was a section that stated they owned the footage and could use it in the future. I assumed for press. I was wrong. This has nothing to do with the filmmakers by the way. I loved ‘FD5.’ I love them all to be completely honest. And I’m super excited to see number six."
This Lady's lovely and the fact that the guy is laughing at her discomfort is hilarious...Great reaction you two. ❤
High winds can in fact bring down a bridge. The phenomenon is known as aeroelastic flutter, which causes an object to vibrate and oscillate around. Tacoma Narrow Bridge collapse as a prime example.
6:05 first human being on Earth to guess from the beginning that it might be a prequel
Was wondering when this review was coming good morning guys
The redemption of this movie for the franchise 👏🏽
So glad we finally got here!! Also Roxy's makeup is on point!!
Yo Greg what a callout thinking its a prequel from that Paris reference at the beginning! You guys are pretty good at seeing the future on this series about seeing the future
He laid out the solution for this crowd, and didn't make that mistake again.
There is going to be a reboot coming in 2025, but this time, it will involve first responders who have had near death experiences of their own.
I think that is still happening as final destination 6
Craig perry said that it won’t be completely rebooting the franchise
It’ll just focus on the first responders
Maybe some of the characters could deal with some the accidents that occurred during some of the main films
Like maybe seeing them from their perspectives
just wanted to update you that this idea was scrapped a while ago. Its now going to focus on a family 60 years later after a woman survives a disaster sometime in the 1960's
Part of the journey is the end, in this case it seems we've reached our Final Destination. What a wild fun ride down memory lane, can't wait for the next franchise!
At least for now. We're supposed to be getting a sixth film sometime next year.
This is such a _bittersweet_ video/reaction for me to watch
On the one hand, I’m thrilled that y’all have finally made it to number 5, as I think that you guys will _really_ enjoy it. But at the same time I’m super bummed that, with this, your Final Destination reactions will be over. (Until Final Destination 6 comes out. Whenever the hell that’s gonna end up happening.) Which is a _major_ bummer!
Oh well! Such is life! Thanks for all of the super entertaining reactions, you two!
(Also, out of all of the heinous AF death scenes in ALL of the F.D. films, the gymnastics scene/death is the ONE that I simply canNOT fucking do. I truly can’t tell you why that is but I have to look away every time.)
they pulled off the twist in this one SO. WELL. i love this entire franchise. i'd say the 5th one is probably my 3rd favorite.. with the 1st at #1 and the 3rd at #2
When I think of this movie, I think of the ending twist and the gymnastics scene. So good! I was so surprised how much I ended up liking this one. I'd probably say 1, 5, 3, 2, 4.
The Office madness is real:
- the male lead is Jan's assistant Hunter
- the bald guy is literally Tod Packer
- Molly is the name of Jan's new assistant
I'm so sad this series is already ending! I loved watching these again with you two. Hope for more horror movie series reactions sometime with y'all again.
19:30 her scream lines up with the foot movements 😂.
14:00 you might wanna check up on the Tacoma Narrows Bridge. It was opened for traffic in July 1940 and collapsed about 4 months later. The suspension bridge started to oscillate due to the winds and the frequency of this oscillation matched the bridge's own resonance frequency. This led to the amplitude of the oscillation to increase until the bridge came apart.
The bridge is therefore mentioned in basically all physics books that discuss this mechanical resonsance as a cautionary tale.
But since that process took far longer than here in the movie there is indeed video footage of the collaps.
And the footage of that bridge twisting back and forth in the wind is just wild.
Another bridge collapsed in real life from different causes, but wasn't sabotage or anything, just combination of factors. The Mothman Prophecies (20002) depicts it. Richard Gere starred in it, and it has supernatural elements.
Tony Todd is the personification of Death. He’s considered the grim reaper in these movies.
Based on the leaked plot of the 6th film - “As a group of first responders escapes death's grasp, they start to be killed by increasingly unlikely and killer mishaps” - It kinda feels like the twist will be one of the characters if not the main character will be revealed as the young Tony Todd. I mean his job in this film felt like a spoiler for the next one if we’re gonna take the leaked FD6 plot as a fact. If that’s the case, though, we’d be watching in a different angle. Because we already know he lived. We’d just see How.
Todd means Death in German
this was the original plot. they have now changed it.
What a great reaction series. Thank you Greg and Roxy for these. Definitely enjoyed them.
Gotta get Roxy back on The Conjuring grind
The amusement Greg finds in these is so funny but also slightly disturbing lol
5 is a better movie than 4. That was an interesting twist in the end. My ranking for all five movies.
1. The original FD
2. FD 3
3. FD 2
4. FD 5
5. FD 4
Greg. If you're interested in what likely inspired the disaster sequence, check out the _actual_ Tacoma Narrows Bridge collapse. Yes, winds can create that effect on a suspension bridge... in fact, they kinda down played it. Seriously, it's insane footage! That disaster forced architects to rethink bridge design to avoid what's called 'resonance.'
High winds collapsed the Narrows Bridge in Washington state
Alex (FD1), Kimberly (FD2), and Wendy (FD3) were in a constant state of anguish over the loss of their friends and suffered from survivor’s guilt in their respective films. They were also incredibly paranoid and felt tortured by their visions, especially after figuring out the consequences of surviving the first initial death scene. You cannot say the same about the main characters of these last 2. I think that’s my main complaint with this one and something they could’ve improved from the 4th going into this final one.
I don't think the premonitions are send by something so they can really cheat Death. Everyone always die either way. It's just Death being bored and giving one person a vision so it can play a bit more with them.
I think this too.
I think we will find put more in the next movie, there has to be a reason certain people are able to see premonitions other than death toying with them jumani style ....I believe there's sonething like an angel of life and death and life is the the one trying to help people live ... I want them to dive into if this has been happening back in the days with other events too etc
Same, I think it’s to spice things up and be kept busy with the ripple effect.
That makes sense and somehow them trying to stop it only makes things worse
While Candace’s death definitely had good buildup, personally thought the way she died was a little bit overkill. I still don’t get how her leg snapped from the fall. It would’ve been fine if it was just her neck and maybe her back. It was like adding extra details that didn’t need to be added
This has been the best series of movies you've watched!! Gracias..
Wow guys that was quick! I honestly thought it would take about 2 weeks or more because of your schedule. Thanks for your reaction I can’t wait to see it
Greg I see what you're saying at the end about the lack of panic on the plane, but also keep in mind that this was a year before 9/11, and plane security was not nearly as strong or fortified as it is today. Idk maybe I'm making excuses, but I always thought that's why the whole plane wasn't evacuated after Devin Sawa said that in the first movie. Loved the reaction, can't wait for more :)
Oh c'mon Greg.....the beginning you said you wouldn't get off the bus with someone freaking out, but you would freak out about the plane at the end. 🤣🤣🤣
Been waiting for this reaction! Loved it love the two of you! and Greg! calling out it was a prequel and then later on the two of you predicting the ending! That was impressive! Also on what you said about the only people that live are the ones from 2, so there’s an alternate ending for the third film in where there’s a newspaper article about the main characters from 2 falling into a woodchipper
Greg ive seen sooooo many reactions to this movie, y'all are the only ones ive seen to predict the ending!
Miles Fisher actually spoofed Tom Cruise in Superhero Movie.
Just recently rewatched this and in hindsight, it’s pretty brilliant how well the filmmakers hid that it was a prequel. Rewatching it, you pick up on stuff like how all the cars in the parking lot in the beginning and on the bridge are 80s, 90s, and very early 2000s models, the tv on the bus is an analog signal that loses reception, the few people you see on cell phones have flip phones, the detective asks if they saw any strangers talking on a pay phone (where would you even find those in 2011?), the office building is like a clone from Office Space, maybe the most recent song on the radio is Everclear, and the lead dude pulls out a Discman when he’s getting on the plane.
Greg you smart detail catching son of a beach, that was dope as hell to see you call it. Almost like you had a vision of what was to come 👀😂
Yo wait a minute… I just realized the twist is like the AUDIENCE has a premonition… woah
My co host eerily guessed the twist before we covered these movies on our pod 😅lol
Great prediction that the ending is the beginning of 1! They drop hints throughout the film and easter eggs to the past films as well. Loved this journey through all 5 films. My personal ranking is 3, 5, 2, 1, 4. Also, if he's open to it, would be fun to see you interview the producer, Craig at some point.
I'm so bummed you guys caught the twist so soon lol. But that's likely 'cause all the movies were still so fresh on your guys' minds, unlike how it was for the rest of us. But I definitely still had fun with you two anyway! :D
Greg to answer your question about high-winds doing any kind of structural damage to a bridge, the answer is a big fat YES! There have been bridges that collapsed due to very windy days. Granted bridges built nowadays are more structurally sound compared to those from the past, but yes, it has happened.
On the topic of Final destination 2 and the survivors, there is an alternate ending to Final Destination 3, and a newspaper reveals that both the cop and girl from FD2 died after falling into a wood chipper at a hardware store, so no one has survived yet. Loved the reaction :)
Well since that was an alternate ending and not a real ending, it’s technically not a canon ending but it can be but if anything, Kimberly and Burke are the only two to survive
that's not canon though so I think they are the only survivors
@@GhostKyng yeah, I just think it's fun that there is an alternate ending :)
@@LastKupoNut yeah i did too
Well if it was cut then it’s not canon
