May 28 2009'THE Final Destination' Poster: Someone Made All the Right Decisions
UGO has premiered the poster for The Final Destination--not to be confused with Final Destination 1, 2, or 3, because the "the" somehow denotes it's the fourth film--and someone in the creative department has just nailed it. Skull and broken mirror motif and the tagline "Rest in Pieces." Beautiful. Finally, all the triteness in the world captured on a single page. My only improvement might be to have the skull carrying a rose in its teeth, you know, because beauty is fragile, man. Maybe literally write "Beauty is Fragile" below "Rest in Pieces," also. In wisps of cigarette smoke.

If your looking for the element this poster lacks it's fire.

I guess they took the first "The" from "The Fast and the Furious" in a nice diplomatic sequel tit-for-tat. I wonder who took the second?
My friends and I like to play the "Add 'The' to a famous movie's title to make it stupid" game. Like "The Psycho", "The Snatch", "The Help!"...

I think that's Marilyn Manson stuck in there.

I can't wait until The Final Destination 2. Where the final destination gets to be even more final!

Recurring joke! I like it. Very Arrested Development. Thanks for rewarding us frequent-readers.
Boo.

Another one? Do they not see the fundamental flaw in this series:
Death: "Oops, did I missed killing those guys? Well, massive brain embolisms for the lot of 'em." *snaps skeleton finger, all of them drop dead* "And done." Roll credits.
