#wenkev

i love how the ashes bail just because they think the guys fighting is dumb as hell

i love how erin flips lewis the bird

i love the immediate cut to raindrops, and then the dark and depressing school hallway. and then the memorial. god this movie does grief so well.

i love that wendy has a little toy sheep in her locker

i love how the candle blows out

i love how kevin calls wendy "wen"

i LOVE LOVE LOVE the convo that wendy and kevin have in the rain!!! it's so fucking good!!! wendy is dealing with her grief and so is kevin but their methods are incompatible. idk it's just raw as fuck. we don't even like each other.... i could go on and on about every single convo they have. and i will.

i love how wendy's hair flips when she walks past kevin

i love how they have to make ian say "how pathetic is it that my last name is the same as my high school" just to make sure the audience knows that bit of lore. dont miss it

i love how wendy looks like a pathetic sopping wet beast in the rain

i love how sweet ashley and ashlyn are. they really are trying to help!!! they know wendy probably doesn't really care about tanning but theyre giving her an opportunity to talk with someone if she needs it

i love how ashlyn puts her book over ashley's head to protect her from the rain when she's writing her number down

i love how kevin just pulls out the big guns and tells her about flight 180. no hesitation

i love the growing look of disdain on wendy's face as kevin tells her about that

i love "fuck you kevin."

i love how the ashes go to the tanning salon so often that they're friends with the guy who works there. he knows them well enough to let them go in alone. crazy

i love that i'm still noticing new things about this movie every time i watch it. this time, i noticed that ashley tends to be the leader, and ashlyn kinda goes along with her. ashley had the idea to invite wendy, and ashlyn seemed a little hesitant at first. and ashley convinced ashlyn to do a longer tanning session. PLUS ashley was the one who brought in her drink to the room. i wonder how much of that characterization was the writing and how much of it was influenced by their actresses, cause i know they became good friends irl and enjoyed these roles

I LOVE THE CONVO THAT WENDY AND JULIE HAVE IN HER ROOM!!! wendy admits that she needs help and she's hurting really bad AND HER SISTER IS THE ONLY ONE SHE TRUSTS TO GO TO FOR HELP.... god. i love their dynamic. i love siblings in horror.

i love that wendy is a fan of the ramones

i love the juxtaposition of wendy looking thru the photos/Realizing and the ashes setting up the tanning beds

i love how in final destination movies theres always a sign on a machine that ways WARNING: DON'T GO ABOVE THIS NUMBER and you know it's gonna go above that number

i love how the ashes scoff at celine dion and britney spears and opt for 70s funk music instead

i love the tanning bed deaths. creative and tense and excruciating. the glass breaking and the eye shields melting....peak

i love the cut to the twin coffins. iconic. also their families knew they were close, so they gave them a joint funeral.... that's really sweet in a grim way

i love ian's speech at the funeral. i know it's the wrong time and the wrong place but he's kinda cooking. and, again, it's sweet in its own, off-putting way. he wasn't friends with the ashes but he's defending them anyway

i love the little exchange that kevin and lewis have. bring me a psp or something...

i LOOOVE the convo wendy and kevin have at jason's grave. not being able to feel his or carrie's presence... wendy saying that the presence is the opposite of how jason made her feel....

i love how wendy then pulls out a glossy photo of 9/11. THIS MOVIE DOES SUCH A FUCKING GOOD JOB OF BALANCING SINCERITY WITH CAMP!!!

i love how kevin immediately believes wendy once she pulls out the grad night pics

i love how kevin takes wendy to get burgers after she collapses from hunger

i love that wendy thinks kevin is cringe for knowing that spongebob lives underwater. i know a lot of people hate that line but i think it's hilarious. it means either wendy is pretentious as hell (funny) or she also knows this factoid but is pretending that she doesnt to seem cool because cartoons are for kids (also funny)

i love there is someone.....walking behind you..... the tension of this drive thru scene is AWESOME. everything is going wrong

i love it when kevin kicks out the windshield. wow so badass. seriously so badass and awesome

i love how frankie's brain giblets get splattered more when the fan spins one more time. adding insult to injury

i love the line "it's not only horrible, but can you feel how vicious it was?" right back to sincerity and realness!!!! this movie is fucking awesome! willful ignorance is surrendering control!!!

i love when they're looking thru the pictures and they land on carrie's and kevin gets this sad, wistful look on his face. he really did love her. he was gonna ask her to marry him!! and wendy knows she was gonna break up with him!!! AAUUUUGH

i love the line "i guess that kinda thing is gonna happen to us the rest of our lives"

i love the sheepish look kevin gets when frankie's death picture shows up. yeah you should be ashamed (i do not blame kevin for that character moment because this movie is from 2006 and hes a Dumb Jock. i blame the writers. kevin is my angel. but this moment is good.)

i love kevin immediately freaking out once he realizes that he and wendy both have pictures. it's so real. i would also do that

i love "unless we have to" "you mean UNTIL we have to."

i love kevin asking if there's anything up his ass in his picture. camp and sincerity

i love what lewis says at the gym tbh. he's kind of not wrong. obviously we as viewers know that Death The Spirit is real, but in real life, i think it'd be pretty realistic to react the way lewis does. it's not how i would react personally but i can see where he's coming from. lewis is underrated man. he doesn't blame wendy and kevin because he knows they were close to jason and carrie, but he just wants to move on with his life

i love "WHAT THE FUCK IS A BRUIN ANYWAY"

i love that this team got a taxidermy(?) bear just to put a bruins jersey on and be mean to

i love "death is a fucking denver fan"

i love the buildup to lewis's death.....it's perfectly done

i love that wendy and kevin are wearing sultans clothes after leaving the scene because their other clothes got lewis all over them

i love the convo wendy and kevin have at the car here. wendy blaming herself... her just wanting it to stop... kevin wishing he could say something to make it all better, but not being able to.... him saying he can't do anything, and then her saying "can you drive?" because he CAN do that. IT'S SO GOOD

i love that the setting of the next scene is a hardware store. there are SO MANY THINGS THAT COULD GO WRONG IN A HARDWARE STORE.

i love that ian and erin call each other zip and pip

i love that ian kind of seems a little freaked out after he kills one of the pigeons

i love ian messing with the lights

i love erin's magnet she uses to pick up the nails. idk i just think it's neat.

i love the massive chain of events. its so complicated and for what

i love that the goths work at a hardware store. #breakthemold

i love erin's death. simple but effectively unsettling

i love how ian's smug fuckhead facade is broken by watching erin die. everyone in this movie is dealing with death in their own unique ways and i really like watching how it affects their actions

i love how they edited the actress's eye onto the nail gun death dummy so it looks more realistic

i love wendy wanting to stick together after leaving the police station. theyre trauma bondedddd

I LOVE "i'll just be freaking out every second hoping you're okay" "why? i mean, we don't even like each other." I LOVE THEIR FRIENDSHIP GODDDDDDDD

i love wendy's purple hoodie

i love the reveal that julie is on death's list. the unrealistically high def shot of the bracelet........

i love that kevin is the one that realizes it's time to look at their own pictures. his development is soooo good

i love how he goes "like a firework went off in my face?" and then it shows all the tricentennial stuff. which is another PERFECT setting for final destination BTW. fireworks and horses and bbq and cannons and blacksmiths and swords and muskets. lots of potential there. i love it

i love that there's just a random black wolf on the road while ian is tailing wendy's car. omen of death....

i love "fuck you ben franklin"

i love how the fireworks in the sky are a backdrop for all the chaos. makes for really good cinematic shots

i love that the horse is used as kind of a red herring. in this franchise, death canonically doesn't use animals, only inanimate objects, but it makes for a really intense chase scene. so it's cool that they got to incorporate an animal without compromising how death works

i love when julie flips kevin off and it all starts coming together

I LOVE THAT KEVIN TAKES A SWORD AND SAVES JULIE WITH IT. this movie fucking rules.

i love how the tension is diverted with perry's death. i wish we got to know her character more

i love that wendy realizes who's next and whispers "kevin." and starts SPRINTING

i love how unhinged ian acts once he shows up here. reasonable crashout. and his whole hero & villain exchange with wendy is great

I LOOOOVE the shot of wendy holding kevin up with the fireworks behind them. she's covered in blood and his face is burned and they look like theyre on the verge of collapsing. one of my fav shots of all time.

i love it when ian gets cleaved in half by the cherry picker and he flips wendy off as he dies

i love wendy's purple coat on the train

i love all the weird ads on the subway

i love how creepy the guy playing guitar looks

i love wendy's two random college friends

i love the cute little rat. i wish it didn't die

i love it when wendy says "i think i had a sense that you were coming now..." and then they go thru a tunnel. AAUUUGH

i love it when julie says "unless something happens to me, and THEN kevin, you've got nothing to worry about" and then they notice kevin is on the same train. BROOOO I WOULD BE THROWING UP.

i love how wendy and julie grab each other's hands when the train derails. I LOVE SIBLINGS IN MEDIA!!!!

i love that wendy gets a 2nd death premonition cause shes the most specialist girl in the whole wide world

i love the way wendy screams KEVIN!!!

i love the ragdoll that flops out of the train once it stops

i love how grim the shot is with all the bodies after the crash. it gives you such a crushing sense of defeat. good fucking cinema.

I FUCKING LOVE THE SHOT WHERE THE TRAIN IS COMING TOWARDS WENDY AND SHE'S BLINDED BY THE HEADLIGHTS AND SHE LETS OUT ONE OF THE BEST SCREAMS IN ANY HORROR MOVIE EVER

i love that, by the time the 2nd premonition is over, it's too late. they couldn't stop it even if they tried. death just hates wendy christensen specifically and wants to put her in the torment nexus one last time before it kills her

i love the panic in kevin's voice as he realizes that wendy had another vision without her even telling him that she did

i love the flashing blue lights on wendy's face right before the movie cuts to black

i love that the credits song is Love Train. final destination has never been and will never be subtle, and i really admire that about it.
