Final Destination

Are movies representative of the society it portrays? Does tell us the strengths and weaknesses of a people? If it does, then we have a lot to learn about safety when we watch the latest "Final Destination" film.

In the movie, there were various scenes that exhibit carelessness that could have been avoided. The spectacles with magnifying lens that lit the saw dust in the movie theatre is one. The rocks that were rolled on by the lawn mower is another. Then there is the spitting can that shorted a motor at a garage. And finally the unbalanced scaffold that brought the ending to a bone-crunching close.

Is it their destiny to have died that way? Or could it have been prevented if only safety precautions were put in place?

I cannot remember the scenes in the previous movies but were those carelessness placed in the script to make the dying happen? Or was it placed there to say "you people are careless. Watch what happens if you are not careful."

Who knows?
