Final Destination 2 (2003) - 66 mistakes

Plot hole: After Kimberly has the vision of the pile-up, she pulls her car across the on-ramp. She is still behind the concrete separator, so how did the truck actually hit her car later on? There was no evidence that the concrete was ever there. The truck got her cleanly.

Continuity: In the scene where the lottery winner is going to die, watch the beer bottle he takes out of the fridge, it moves all over the place. It even vanishes a couple of times.

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...

Factual error: When the camera shows the coffee cup in the cop's car, you can see the ignition is in the off position

Revealing: In the scene where Rory gets cut into thirds, in the background you can faintly hear someone cheer and say beautiful, perhaps because the stunt went so well.

Visible crew/equipment: When Timmy gets killed by the falling plate glass watch carefully and you will see the foam representation spring back up.

Revealing: In the scene where the officer is looking at the pictures of the Flight 180 survivors and their deaths afterwards, notice that Todd is shown still struggling at the ropes and looking into the camera. Apparently the media thought it would be better to take a picture of Todd as he was committing "suicide". A similar incident occurs with the bus accident picture. The girl is obviously splattered in the first movie, but appears to have mostly leg damage in the pics.

Other: When you see Clear take off her wristband in her padded cell she drops it on the floor. If you look very very closely at the date on the top right of the newspaper, it says Friday March 15. If that were the day before it would have been March 14 which would be the exact year after 180 crashed. In the first film in the opening credits, Alex's flight ticket says 13 May.

Factual error: When Kat is driving the survivors and they crash into the field, they slow to a stop while spinning - there is no way the car would travel backwards with the speed that it appears to in the next shot.

Continuity: When Evan comes into the flat and walks towards the window, pay attention to the sink, there is a red cup or something in it. However when his arm gets stuck in it, there is nothing red in the sink, and there was no time for him to take anything out of the sink.

Continuity: In the beginning pileup, when the red SUV starts to flip, the front passenger wheel and suspension are ripped off and go off toward the front of the car. Yet, in the next shot, the car has all four wheels. After it shows the Trans Am going in the ditch, it shows the same shot of the wheel coming off from a different angle.

Plot hole: After Kimberly has the premonition of Dr. Kalarjian wheeling the ECG machine, she doesn't say anything about it to the cop or to Clear. Yet the cop says to her a few seconds later something like- 'Okay, so you saw an ECG machine and what else?'. How did he know if Kimberly never said anything? [NOTE-This is on the DVD under one of the subtitles.]

Continuity: Flight 180 was due on May 13. In FD-2, when the survivors of the car accident are reminiscing how they had managed to cheat death in their past, Kat Jennings says that last May she was supposed to die at some hotel of the gas leak but she didn't get there as the bus she was on hit Terry Chaney. It couldn't happen in May, because Terry was present at the memorial opening which took place 39 days after the air crash. So she couldn't die earlier than in June.

Continuity: During the premonition where the Mustang flips you see 2 major components of the car fly off. First the hatchback then the gas tank. If there is no gas tank, there is no fuel so why does the Mustang explode when the truck hits it?

Revealing: After the logs fall off of the trailer at the start you can see the truck jackknife and behind you just see a car flip on its side and exploding without any obstacles near it.

Continuity: When Kimberly drives up and block the way, to the high-way, she does a 90 degree turn. Yet when their car gets hit by the truck it's turned back again. Now when did that happen?

Revealing: When the coffee cup tips over onto Officer Burke's lap, you can see the device that was making it vibrate.

Continuity: After Clear and Eugene's deaths Kimberley stares out at the lake and the white van outside the hospital, when Tom grabs her and says,'What are you talking about?', she looks over Tom's shoulder and she sees a newspaper report. You see it has two lines for the headline with a blue sheet of paper above it. In the next close up shot of the report it has one line for the headline and the blue paper is lower down.

Factual error: When the surviving state trooper is searching the police database for Alex Browning the search results pop up in a new window although the box that says "Open in new window" is unchecked.

Factual error: The truck flatbed that is carrying the logs has a fuel tank attached to its underside. Flatbed trailers do not have these. (It's a fuel tank for enclosed refrigerated trailers.)
