Just when you thought vending machines were the safest part of your day, Final Destination: Bloodlines has piped up, aiming to turn snack time into a thriller of suspense. The series that led us to side-eye escalators, dread air conditioners, and flinch at every creaking sound is now poised to launch an attack on our go-to snack machines.
In the latest peek at Final Destination: Bloodlines, Owen Patrick Joyner's Bobby is shown steadying himself near a shattered vending machine, possibly mid-attempt to dislodge a stubborn snack. But let's be real: this is no ordinary snack struggle. However, the plot twist is an extra hand and leg were caught in that viral picture.
With cracked glass and an oppressive feeling of foreboding hanging in the air, it's clear that something much more evil is in the works. What makes the Final Destination movies so dreadfully addictive isn't so much the gory deaths; it's the torturous build-up in advance, when every innocent object seems like a trap laid out by an overzealous Grim Reaper with nothing better to do.
If anything, Final Destination has shown us that no item is too mundane to be an instrument of death. That vending machine is not stuck; it's scheming. Bobby isn't merely starved; he's playing a game of snack-or-perish with very high stakes.
And if past experience holds any truth, one misstep and it's not so much "press B7," but rather "face your demise through an airborne granola bar." As soon as the picture of Final Destination: Bloodlines went viral, someone took to his X account and commented:
"Looks like the worst one yet lol"
One of X's fans tossed out a brash opinion, stating that this could be the worst Final Destination ever, but come on, that's part of the fun. This franchise has never been subtle or character-driven. It's about seeing 'Death' turn mundane objects into Rube Goldberg killing devices.
Even when the plot of Final Destination makes no sense at all, and the characters all do the wrong thing, the fans turn up like it's a holiday. Ultimately, if someone is killed by an out-of-control vending machine, it's good entertainment.
However, anyone familiar with the Final Destination franchise knows the drill: one still image is enough to send a chill down your spine.
The moment the new pic was released, fans didn't waste a second in making the internet a Final Destination support group, memes, roasts, and crazy theories circulating faster than a loose bolt in a trap.
The comments section soon turned into a pot of panic, popcorn, and sheer comedy as everyone prepared themselves for whatever freaky destiny has in store for Bobby and his doomed vending machine. Buckle up because the fans are responding as if Death itself is reading their tweets.
Netizens react as new ‘Final Destination: Bloodlines’ look features vending machine
Some people glared at the photo and threw logic out the window right away because why break it down when you can roast? The comments became a full comedy club, where fans were joking that the vending machine owed them money.
It's tradition now: Final Destination releases a still, and the internet makes it a stand-up routine with no chill and a whole lot of creativity:
"Is he going to get kill by a vending machine?," a user @JKLM0521 asked.
"Ohno, that vending machine is going down, and we're going to hear the "they're actually more deadly than shark attacks" factoid again for months," another user @imgoingtoduck hilariously commented.
"Here come the vending machine kill 7 people a year in the US fact," a netizen @William45589421 sarcastically expressed.
Some people weren't even trying to make a point; they were there just to comment for the sake of fun and anarchy. You could see that half of them had no idea what was happening in the photo, but that didn't stop them from spouting off one-liners as if they were getting paid per laugh.
In typical Internet fashion, the vending machine stole the show, and the jokes had more turns than the film probably will.
"Death by vending machine? They must’ve been Stephen King fans," a user @TheLakersForum bluntly pointed out.
"Getting done by a vending machine is wild 🤣 Killer Snacks! I'll get my coat...," another user @Fight_Club_Lad hilariously commented.
"No way someone get killed by a vending machine!," a netizen @JerrellsWorld sarcastically stated.
As ever, the peanut gallery arrived early, dropping jokes, crazy theories, and running gags like they were working on a group project in sarcasm. Some of the comments were unrelated to the plot and had everything to do with the sheer delight of bringing spice to the timeline.
Whether roasting the vending machine or acting as if it's now part of the MCU, one thing is certain: no serious moment is ever safe when the internet feels it's meme o'clock:
"So now I have to fear vending machines too," a user @friezsnake echoed.
"This doesn’t look scary, this just looks like me when I have no money and need a snack," another user @_nixmyth_ hilariously commented.
"It ain’t worth the bag of chips, that machine is gonna F him up," a netizen @TheJonathanSim sarcastically stated.
Who is the 'unseen' person behind the vending machine in the now viral picture of Final Destination: Bloodlines?
According to CinemaCon, the unseen individual lurking behind the vending machine is actually Bobby's brother, Erik (played by Richard Harmon), who gives it a little nudge to speed things along. The brothers aren't exactly there for snacks; they're attempting to pull off an outlandish scheme to cheat Death.
The plan? Feed Bobby something peanut-containing, which he's fatally allergic to, in a hospital so the doctors can resuscitate him when he flatlines. It's a good plan if your criteria for good includes immediate pandemonium, an absolute lack of control, and a ticket to disaster express that only Final Destination could provide.
Also, reportedly there's a brutal MRI machine death in the Final Destination: Bloodlines
With Final Destination: Bloodlines ratcheting up the carnage to the extreme, even your most everyday, ordinary daily chores now carry an element of existential dread. Hospitals, which in the past could reasonably be counted upon to be refuges from pain and injury, are now firmly in the "not a chance" column because Death seems to have a grudge against clean settings, too.
And if you thought MRI machines were mere rickety pipes for scanning purposes, forget about it. The report states that there's this abysmally graphic MRI death that you'll be wondering about every doctor's visit, every health plan, and every magnetic field around you.
All, from spontaneous snack outings to regular checkups that have been done in the franchise at this juncture, feel like time bombs.
Overall, if Final Destination: Bloodlines does nothing else, it has successfully made vending machines scary. What was a simple, harmless chip dispenser is now a menacing harbinger of disaster, poised to convert your hunger for chips into a doomsday chain reaction. Seeing Bobby holding himself against a broken machine says it all; there's no such thing as an "innocent snack break" in this world.
After this Final Destination: Bloodlines film, all snack runs will be accompanied by a pause and a wary look at the closest exit. With no more elevators, tanning beds, and kitchen sinks, 2025's most lethal object may be a device that takes crumpled dollar bills. And let's face it: if Death is resourceful enough to turn a vending machine into a weapon, none of us are safe.
The Final Destination: Bloodlines will be released on May 16, 2025.
