FLIPDUDE Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Well, I saw in a Newsweek ad that for a while now there has been a special edition final destination 3 DVD on sale, and it says you can CHOOSE how everyone dies??? WTF? has anyone seen this DVD and can explain? all i remember is that the box is red instead of blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Johnson Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 It is really lame. You have the option to watch the movie on this "special" setting in which a menu pops up at selected moments of the movie. The menu only consists of two choices like "heads or tales" or "yes or no". I honestly can not remember the differences. I think one of them is that they all ride the roller coaster and end up dying at the beginning of the movie. After the roller coaster crash the end credits roll. Hey, that would have made a better movie heh. Anyways your comics are much better than that crappy movie.

The Cheat Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 Frank Cheeks is the guy that gets killed by the truck. And the book is the Final Destiantion 3 novel. It contains the original storyline, its pretty rad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okinawaboy11 Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 I'd suggest NOT to choose the "Choose their fate" because if you choose the wrong right one (or the wrong one) the movie ends there. Its lammeeeeeee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we all have our own opinions, and I agree that the "choose your ending" was kind of cheesy to begin with, but I think it was very well done. Extra footage was shot suring production to make this possible, and everything flows. All of the options you can choose usually emmediately do something, and then sometimes trigger minor changes later within the story. For example (SPOILER): One person may be about to die, and you are asked if another character should attempt to save them. Or, you may be asked if something else should be changed, and the character, may just end up dying a different way instead. Yes, there are two ways that the movie can end earlier (I think). In the first one, everyone really DOES die on the coaster, but thats stupid, so when he flips the coin, ignore it. But in the second one, you have the chance to see a completely different ending, simply decided on by how one of the last people dies (I won't spoil this for you). (END SPOILER) So, if you liked the movie, I would say buy the dvd, because I think this is one of the best done DVDs ever. Not to mention, there is a full commentary on the first disc, and well as TONS of special featurettes on the second disc, and a full feature length behind the scenes special. And there is tons of footage of the coaster. There is a special on filming on the ride itself on the second disc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Johnson Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 Yeah I was probably a bit tough on the movie. I admit, I can be a pretty tough movie critic sometimes. But I still think your comics are much better than FD3, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
man Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 just use wikapedia to do it. It is basically their was of doing deleted scenes. There are some extra things but it mostley sucked. IMO just find a friend who has it and watch his. edit: The first movie was way better than this one I have to agree with erik that this ones crap.

BarryH Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 Personally, I liked FD1 a lot better than FD2 or FD3. The FD3 bonus disk has a pretty neat featurette on the Dead Teenager Movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
