The Bus Crash?

Anybody else think Jamie Lee Curtis did it?

I thought the reason they didnt show the cause of the bus crash, was they were going to use it as a TWIST later in the film to reveal Jamie Lee curtis caused the bus crash and Michael's escape with a botched attempt to kill him...

they showed her waiting in her car outside the prison with a gun, I figured they were going to reveal later in the movie, she followed the bus, stopped it, Tried to Get Michael off the bus to kill him, It went wrong and she was the reason he escaped...

In fact, The movie so much so seemed to be heading in this direction, I got to wonder if this was originally in the film but was later taken out and changed in Post....

I bet they had test screenings and audiences didnt like that Jamie's actions caused him to escape and resulted in a ton of people dying again, not exactly great for the hero of the movie....

anyways, anyone else expecting it?

I thought it was going to turn out that the doctor had caused the crash.
Once his sinister side showed i was expecting him to revel or show a flashback that he had indeed caused the crash to put Michael back in his environment to study what he would do to learn more from him.
He was unharmed in the bus and im sure Michael would of wanted to kill him but when he was alone in the bus i thought he had helped him escape.

I'm pretty damn sure that's exactly what happened. The doctor helped out, but it is not shown to save the twist (which was ill-advised, for sure) for the end.
