* FOX ONLY! NO ITEMS!!

In ''Last Action Hero'', the ticket that allows the characters to cross into the real world is lost and Death escapes into the real world, He is still around in the real world at the end of the Movie and being bored of the way people die here he is trying to shake things up abit.

In ''Final Destination 3'', Ian's FamousLastWords to Wendy were "You see? I'm not gonna die! It's you, Wendy! YOU'RE DEAD!"; later on in the movie, Wendy actually did (possibly) die. So... Yeah...

* A nuclear test

* A political protest (March For Life, March For Our Lives)

* A yacht

** [[spoiler: [[Film/OmenIVTheAwakening his son/daughter on the other hand...]]

* A military warzone

* A yacht capsizing

Sure, freak deaths happen in real life, but the ones in these films are often partially a result of technology which seems to have been designed to help facilitate horrible accidents. There also seem to be much lower safety standards. Judging by such things as the design of the tanning salon and by many characters--characters whom one would assume to be competent--who make mistakes that one would think would be avoided by anyone (such as Eugene being left alone without any supervision), it's also possible that human instincts were influenced by Death's will.

Judging by such things as the design of the tanning salon in FD3 and by many characters--characters whom one would assume to be competent--who make mistakes that one would think would be avoided by anyone (such as Eugene being left alone without any supervision), it's also possible that deeply ingrained human behavior was influenced by Death's will.

You are on his list, it's neat, it's tidy, some people go in their sleep or in illness, some people get into horrific accidents, that's just the way it goes, but if you cheat his list and, in essence, mess up the order, he gets nasty, you will note that most (not all) of the initial disasters the characters die rather instantly, usually asshole characters get nasty ones (the bosses death by tar as an example) but everyone else gets their heads smashed in or crushed or splatted, all instant, painless, maybe not clean but still pop and you are out, for cheating his list Death gets angry and constructed more prolonged and painful deaths, the more you cheat him or actively try to, the worse it gets, but if you accept it is happening and you can't stop it, he relents and gives you a quicker death (Rory & Nora from 2), the only reason most of the characters get a horrible death is because Death is actively angry at them for cheating him.

The villains are actually the humans that receive premonitions and try to avoid death, thereby disrupting the order of life and death, and we're supposed to cheer on how Death always gets his job done and preserve the balance. And Death is usually a BoringInvincibleHero, since nobody can touch or avoid him. [[KillEmAll And he always wins]].

[[WMG: The Death in this series is the replacement Death from the climax of ''Discworld/ReaperMan''.]]

The movie then ends with one of the heroes having a chronic heart attack and dies after being sent to the hospital. Because hey, Peaceful Death gotta do his job, Death is a natural part of life, but this time, there won't be some asshole deity manipulating it for lulz.

What if the reason Death is so obsessed with balancing out the books is that with each successive error, we bring the universe one step closer to crashing? Also just like the Butterfly Effect WMG mentioned above, if enough people break sequence, will the machinations proliferate uncontrollably, beyond what even Death intended?

The imposter is the now-demonic spirit of a deceased, homicidal maniac who may have found a way to take the reigns of Death's controls in the afterlife. Ironically, it's the ''REAL'' Death who's trying to keep the survivors alive while trying to take back it's job.

The ghosts of people who were previously on a Death list send each new protagonist visions and signs of Death's impending strikes from the afterlife. Why them? who knows. Maybe it's because they're able to perceive their messaging on some level. The fact that they're trying to help suggests that there may be a legitimate way for the survivors to get a chance at a "full life"...or at least they ''think'' there is one. They do this mainly because Death has seemingly gone off the rails taking lives that possibly were [[FridgeHorror not even supposed to be taken yet]] and they're doing everything in their power to level the playing field.\\

[[WMG: Death has to kill at certain times and [[BalancingDeathsBooks balance it's books]] in order to keep itself ''and the universe'' alive.]]

Like the other forces of nature, Death plays an integral part of how the universe functions and the death of living things are what give TheGrimReaper it's power. Thus, it creates a grand design for all mortals to follow in order to continually fuel itself and have everything remain intact. Whenever someone deviates from that design, Death's is drained of energy and it creates a disruption in the very fabric of the cosmos that may increase exponentially if not resolved. If Death itself ceases to exist, then no living thing can die and an unimaginable imbalance will throw everything off. Always wondered why Death would take it so personally if things don't go as it planned.

[[WMG: Death in the series isn't the actual Grim Reaper, but a rogue, supernatural impostor attempting to usurp it's role.]]
