Movie Geekery

I've just watched both Final Destination films (the third does not exist).

About halfway through the second, I realised that all Mage: The Ascension players need to see these films as the perfect example of coincidental You Die Now effects.

How sad am I?

She won't? They're gloriously silly. The whole premise is that you can cheat death if someone helps you, but Not For Long. The "You die now" coincidences are wonderfully ludicrous. And it has a Gas Main From Hell for Forces-hounds.

Dad: "We never had a chancce to thank your friend... he pulled our son out of the path of that news truck that went on to explode and kill him."
Mum: "You never told me that–"

If all of them involved the same characters, then yes. However, since the movies are about people dying, they do generally reach their final destination. :)

I was trying to decide what sphere interpretation would be appropriate in each death.

Who's sadder?
