DivX-esque/DVD: Final Destination (2000)

The whole process of watching this movie was possibly more interesting than the film itself. Ian got it in some odd format that I can’t even remember. We stopped it partway through because we were hungry, but shortly after resuming, it just stopped. Turns out he had an incomplete file!

Now the movie isn’t necessarily good, but in order to start what we had finished, we went to Queen Video. It was out, though, so we had to hold our breath and enter Blockbuster (actually, I’m the one with the Blockbuster hangup - Ian was able to breathe normally).

All of this to say, Final Destination (James Wong) is fine. We got the impression from the special features that its success as a film, and now a franchise, was a total fluke. They showed the test audience reactions and some of the scenes that they had to cut out - absolutely terrible stuff! It was great.
