Revealing mistake: In the hospital scene when the nurse is filling the tub for the patient in the room above the cowboy's, he leaves the water on. When the water starts to come out of the tub it is coming out many times faster than it is going in.

The Rube Goldberg-esque death scenes that this franchise is known for, while still creative, are mired by awful CGI work.
The plot of this film also comes across as if the characters are on a speed run, whereas many of the scenes would benefit from having room to breathe.
Take the very last scene, for example, where the main character ponders to his two surviving friends that perhaps Death is still coming for them. Instead allowing the scene to build tension, like the first film in the series did with its final scene, their fates are sealed mere seconds later and the film abruptly ends.

Hunt Wynorski: We just lost one hot MILF!
Trivia: The huge crash that starts the film takes place at McKinley Speedway. The students who die in Final Destination 3 attend McKinley High School, and there is an running gag in that film that one of the students targeted for death is also named McKinley.
Question: I think I have missed something, but I believe, the deaths in the movie are all wrong. First of all, in the first premonition, the cowboy dies BEFORE hunt and Janet, but later in the movie he dies after them. Secondly, how can the cowboy survive if he was in the thing that was SUPPOSED to kill him? Thirdly, in the premonition, a car explosion kills George and Lori, but when Nick falls back and gets impaled, he isn't burned. Lastly,during the mall scene, before the premonition, Nick reaches the theater too late to save Janet, and she dies, but George was the last person who died, and Lori was after George. It should have gone to Lori, then Nick, THEN Janet. Can someone please explain this or tell me if I'm wrong?
Chosen answer: 1. The cowboy almost died in the original accident (hence, he ended up in the hospital) and thus death moved on to Hunt & Janet.2. The cowboy would have died as he did in the premonition, but the only reason he died like that is because Nick asked him to move (in the vision) which he didn't do in real life.3. Nick was close enough to be pushed backward by the pressure wave, but not close enough to be burned.4. *shrugs* mistake maybe?
My answer: The cowboy got squashed against a wall by an engine and Nick died in his vision after George and Lori died because he stumbles backwards onto a piece of sharp wood. Well that's what I think.
Answer: I believe that in order for Janet to fully skip her turn, Hunt and Janet would have to both be saved and since Hunt died, Janet didn't really skip her turn and death threw her randomly into the list.
Answer: Janet never died before the premonition, most likely case scenario would be that since both Lori and Janet were at the theater death would be more likely to "kill to birds with one stone" which would mean that he wouldn't care about the order. Death would just want to get it done. Same scenario for Nick, Janet and Lori's deaths at the cafe, and Ashley and Ashlyn's deaths from FD3.
