Final Destination 2

Continuity mistake: During the premonition where the Mustang flips and lands next to the log where the motorcyclist is lying; he is parallel to the road facing oncoming traffic, yet he gets T-boned by the big truck when he should have gotten hit head on.

EMTurbo

Continuity mistake: When Todd dies in part 1, his eyes are severely bloodshot from the strangulation. Yet when Officer Burke is looking at his picture on the computer, they are normal. (00:26:50)

Continuity mistake: During the premonition when the girl on the chopper shows her boobs, the guy on the left gives the joint to the other one, however in the next shot, he is holding it again.

Ronnie Bischof

Continuity mistake: When the dentist starts operating Tim's teeth with the noisy device, the dentist's left hand (holding a dentist's mirror) is on the right side of Tim's face. In another shot, his left hand with the dentist's mirror is on the other side and the position keeps changing between shots. (00:41:10)

Continuity mistake: During the premonition where the Mustang flips you can see the left rear wheel center cap disappear and reappear.

EMTurbo

Continuity mistake: Look at the newspaper photo of Clear before she committed herself - she has relatively dark hair. Definately not a natural blonde. Yet current Clear has much, much lighter blonde hair. We saw that she was blonde at the end of Final Destination - yet, her darker roots aren't particularly prominent, showing that during her time in the institution she must have bleached her hair at least once. For someone who's paranoid about death, she sure doesn't seem to care about the potentially acidic effect of having peroxide on her head. [Someone asks this in the commentary on the DVD, and the response is "she was a natural blonde, she dyed her hair brown in the first movie." This stands up, as it explains why there were no brown roots at the end of the first movie.]

Phoebe

Continuity mistake: After Evan turns on the stove, the camera switches shots and the flame is gone, then the shot switches, and it is back again.

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the film, when Kimberly has the pile-up premonition, her red truck flips over a few times; watch closely and you will see that in some shots there's no one in it.

Continuity mistake: During the beginning, the main character tunes a radio to 104.9 to hear the announcement about the vigil. When she tries the radio again after seeing her death, she tunes to 98.9. The same audio plays.

Continuity mistake: When Evan knocks the skillet off the stove, the grate falls. After he gets his hand free, it's back on the stove.

Continuity mistake: Evan throws spaghetti out the window and a few are stuck to the pan. They disappear seconds later.

Continuity mistake: Isabella's photo that they look up on the computer is in her jail cell, which comes later in the film.

Continuity mistake: When all the survivors are leaving the police station, you can see their reflections in the two-way mirror. Before they cut to they mirror, Timmy's mom says, "Let's go" and starts to get up. But in the reflection, she is still sitting. Cut back to them and she is just getting up again. Also in the reflection, the young lady who was on her cell phone in the crash is getting up to leave; then they cut to the group and she is getting up again.

Factual error: In the final scene where the gas grill blows up, the arm that falls to the table in front of the mother is not from a teenager - it is nearly twice as large as the young man's arms (as previously seen in multiple scenes). Some people say it's a leg, but if that's so it's a bit odd having fingers on the right side of it... (01:25:11)

Clear Rivers: Look, we drove a long way to get here, so if you happen to know how to stop Death, it would be really great if you told us.
William Bludworth: You can't cheat Death. There are no escapes.
Clear Rivers: Bullshit! You told me Death has a distinct design. But Alex and I cheated Death, not once but dozens of times. The design is flawed, it can be beaten.
William Bludworth: Such fire in you now. People are always most alive just before they die. Don't you think?

More trivia for Final Destination 2

Question: Why does Alex die before Clear? Wasn't she supposed to be next after Carter? I mean, Alex was supposed to die first but Carter intervened making death repeat the cycle according to the path of the explosion which included Carter dying first, then Clear second and finally Alex. Why didn't this happen?

filsch

Chosen answer: His death happened between movies. We don't know how many times they intervened with each other before he finally was killed.

lartaker1975

Answer: In the movie clear tells the others she and Alex saved each other countless times, however if you pause the movie and enlarge the scenes where it's flashing all the news paper articles it tells you that Alex was killed by a falling brick. I do believe Alex pushed clear out of the way of the brick.

Rachel Borden

Answer: Death works backwards now in this movie.
