Quotes:
|
-
Tod Waggner: We say that the hour of death cannot be forecast, but when we say this we believe it's in a far and distant future. Not to have any connections with the day already began, or that death could arrive this same afternoon...
-
Bludworth: There are no accidents, no coincidences, and no escapes.
-
Billy Hitchcock: There they go, here we stay. [As he watches the plane take off and then explode]
-
Billy Hitchcock: Carter, you dick!
-
Carter: As far as I know, this s**t can circle around and get us all again. But for right now, I'm the safest f**ker in the world, because you're still NEXT.

Trivia:
|
- The numerous appearances of '180' in the movie refer to the film's original title of 'Flight 180'. New Line decided to rename the film to Final Destination through fear of confusion of other movies like Air Force One or Con Air.
- Another character named after a historic horror film maker is Larry Murnau, named after F.W. Murnau, director of the "first" Dracula film Nosferatu‚ eine Symphonie des Grauens
- As well as footage, Final Destination borrows in other ways from the crash of TWA Flight 800. The July 17th, 1996 flight was also carrying a high school French club, it exploded suddenly and was investigated for a possible deliberate act causing the accident - first a bomb, then a surface to air missile. As with the movie, it was ultimately decided that the crash was a result of mechanical failure (explosion in the central fuel tank), although the FBI investigation is still open.
- Most characters in the film are named after directors or stars from black and white horror movies. For example, Chaney (Lon Chaney), Waggner (director George Waggner), Browning (famous "Dracula" director Tod Browning), Schreck (Max Schreck starred in "Nosferatu") and Valerie Lewton (Val Lewton produced several famous horror movies). Billy Hitchcock whose name pays homage to Alfred Hitchcock.
- In every death, "Rocky Mountain High" plays. It's on the intercom in the airport, on Tod's radio, the teacher puts on John Denver's Greatest Hits, even a French Guy who looks like John Denver plays the song at the end of the movie in Paris.
