it's all about the dying

Watched a review for a Final Destination movie. I've never really watched any of the Final Destination movies, but what I get from the trailers and the review is that it's all about a group of good looking kids who somehow avoid dying in some spectacular death sequence and then spend the rest of the movie being killed one by one by some contrived setup. Which, well, it's interesting. Because, ultimately death is already stalking us all.

And faced with the revolution that you are about to die, what would happen? Do any of these characters re-examine their lives? Do any of them accept the inevitability of death? Embrace the coming of death? Or face it head on?

So, what if you approached a Roadrunner cartoon like that?
