Didnt like this as much as the other Final Destination flicks, but there was still some enjoyment to be had.
Intrigued by the 'choose their fate' version! Sounds interesting.

Another HIDEOUS cover from Entertainment In Video. Cannot wait to pick this up, my favourite in the series. Loved it.
looks pretty much the same as the R1 art cover
Strange
Anyone notice that the aspect ratio is different to the Region 1 DVD? I prefer 2.35... you see more. Also how come there is no mention of DTS on the cover?
Cool - DTS 6.1!
Let's hope this version wings its way down under!

I'm pickin up the R1 Full Screen version due to the fact I hate 2:35:1 aspect ratio.

I'm assuming the "Choose the Fate" of the characters option refers to the alternative ending, which I won't spoil.
I'm assuming the film will allow you to choose which ending to view when watching the film.

I love 2.35, it's fullframe that I find irritating. Artistically boring. Get out of the 80s.
I Founf This At Wikipedia about the choos ur fate thing.
MAJOR SPOILERS
Spoiler The DVD version contains a special feature called "Choose their Fate" that at certain moments in the film allows the viewer to make a decision that could affect the fate of the characters.
Using this feature, alternate sequences are edited into the film, affecting a number of death scenes:
Jason and Carrie: When Kevin flips the coin to determine who sits with Wendy, viewers can choose either Heads or Tails. The Change: After choosing tails, the movie plays out as it did theatrically, only Wendy’s vision ends with her still in line instead of when she is already sitting on the coaster. She convinces her friends to leave, saving Jason and Carrie. The four of them witness the coaster crash, but then the film ends after about 20 minutes with text information about what would have happened to the characters. Surprisingly, even though they escaped death’s design, death apparently doesn’t target them in the alternate version.
Ashley and Ashlyn: At the tanning salon, viewers can choose whether the room temperature is set to 73 or 76 degrees. The Change: A setting of 76 degrees apparently gives Ashlyn enough time later to escape her booth before the board could trap both girls. Ashlyn is able to open Ashley’s booth, but in reaching to pull her friend to safety, they are both electrocuted by the malfunctioning booth.
Frankie Cheeks: At the drive-thru window, viewers who make Wendy honk again will unlock a scene in which Frankie turns around, allowing Kevin and Wendy to see him before the truck hits. When they escape, they pull Frankie to safety as well. The Change: This causes a few alterations to the remaining film. Upon seeing the picture of Frankie next to the fan, Kevin and Wendy refer to what could have happened to Frankie had they not saved him. Later, when leaving the police station, Kevin walks by a police car that pulls up, and Frankie is dragged out of the car under arrest. Viewers are then asked if saving Frankie was worth it, unlocking hidden footage of police evidence that consists of Frankie’s home movies, including what he filmed at the amusement park.
Lewis: Before visiting Lewis in the weight room, viewers can give Wendy another chance to look at the pictures. The Change: Instead of the next scene beginning in the weight room with Wendy and Kevin trying to convince Lewis of his impending doom, it features Wendy and Kevin walking across the track stadium to the weight room talking about how they will convince Lewis of the danger. As soon as they walk into the weight room, Lewis sees them, asks why they are there, and his head is immediately crushed by the weights. This is actually the alternate scene of Lewis’ death, as was originally scripted.
Erin: Before Ian shoots the birds, viewers are given the option of a kill shot or warning shot. A kill shot returns to the theatrical version of the movie, while a warning shot changes things up. The Change: Having failed to kill the birds, Ian mutters menacingly that they cannot escape. The film progresses as it does in the theatrical version up until after Ian is rescued from the falling debris. Instead of a stake popping the sawdust bag, Erin is startled by the pigeons, which are still alive, and falls back into the nail gun.
Ian: After Ian stalks Wendy to the fair and the cherry picker is about to crush him, viewers can make him jump to the left or to the right. Jumping to the left leads to the theatrical version. The Change: Jumping to the right makes Ian completely crushed by the cherry picker, and half his body is not thrown to the side as it is in the theatrical version. This unlocks the alternate ending in which Wendy crushes the camera.
Kimberley Corman and Officer Burke (From FD2): The fates of these two characters from Final Destination 2 are revealed when the camera pans a newspaper in the subway station. In “Choose Their Fate” mode, viewers are given the option of reading the full article about what happened to them. According to the newspaper, they died in an accident that involved a woodchipper.
Wendy: In the final subway scene, Wendy examines a route map. Viewers are asked if she should continue to examine the map. The Change: After examining the map further, Wendy sees how it says “End of the line,” then gets the strange feeling and sees Kevin and Julie, as she does in the theatrical version. The train crashes, and Wendy finds herself on the tracks about to be run over by another train. Instead of this being a vision, Wendy is hit by the train, and the credits roll.

If you're actually buying Fullscreen discs on purpose, then you shouldn't be allowed to own a t.v, nevermind a dvd player. I'm sorry if that sounds extreme, but it's about time the uncultured became cultured, and got their heads out of their as*es.

Couldn't agree more. There is NO place for full screen DVDs in this day and age (not counting films where it is the OAR, of course).

It's a bit strange they're still releasing separate fullscreen dvd's although no one seem to be buying them. I would never ever think about buying the fullscreen version of a film I love. Massacre! If the film only is availible in fullscreen, i'll pass.

Probably the worst in the series. The second is amasing. Blood, gore, heads cut off by elevators, impalement, getting ripped apart by barbed wire, I mean who could beat that. The first was unique when it came out, the plane accident was very clever. That part in Rocky Mountain High "I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky" I never noticed was so genius. The third one was just fine. The 4th looks like the final one. Sadly I would have loved to conitnued the brilliant and unique series at least till a 6th.
