gWIL 0 Report post Posted February 23, 2004 Speaking of Prequels, Cube: Zero info from uncubed.com Cube Zero, the prequel to the smash hit Cube, exposes the origins of the cube. They soon realize that in order to survive they must trust the man who designed and perfected this complex killing machine. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Furthermore, shortly after having posted this brief premise (originally at the Lions Gate Films website) I got an e-mail from an anonymous person crediting him/herself as Erica Wynn. In the e-mail he/she added further info to the premise. "I worked on Cube Zero in Toronto and I think the synopsis you have on is a bit misleading. The story is actually a lot more complex than them just meeting up with the creator of the cube. They never meet the maker of the cube. They do meet someone who works for "the system", but it's not the creator of the cube; the character is someone a lot more interesting. Also, there are interesting scenes outside the cube and they are a lot better than the flashbacks they had in Hypercube. At least IMHO." * "Barbarash’s primary goal was to create a believable prequel that would mesh seamlessly with the cube mythology created by Vincenzo Natali in 1997." * “I hope that we raise at least as many questions as we answer." * In creating the look and feel of Cube Zero, the filmmakers purposely turned away from the hyper-clean look and feel of Hypercube, choosing to go in a grittier direction for the series. * ...finding the exit is only the beginning of an even worse nightmare. * Even as we start to learn more about who and what is behind the Cube, we are left with even more questions as the cosmic mysteries of the Cube universe are revealed. I'm excited 1st one was great, Hypercube was ok, there is also talk of a TV series Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kardo 0 Report post Posted February 23, 2004 Cube is good concept, poor execution. The ending is so very lame and seems so Deus Ex Machina meets Twilight Zone. Plus the less said about the acting the better. One of the most overated movies ever. Good Review For The Movie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gWIL 0 Report post Posted February 23, 2004 Dude, the ending was good because it didn't tell anything it kept you guessing and wanting more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kardo 0 Report post Posted February 23, 2004 You can't say that the acting wasn't so awful that it didn't drag the whole movie down to a Sub-B Movie level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest OctoberBlood Report post Posted February 23, 2004 Cube has been a movie I've wanted to see for awhile now. I've gotta get the DVD before Zero comes out it looks like. Reading about the movie makes me want it even more. Nice concept. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

monkey 0 Report post Posted February 23, 2004 I really liked the two Cube films and the DVDs for both. A sequal hopefully should be good. I wonder if the rumoured tv series will ever appear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gWIL 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2004 for the tv series theycould due an hour an episode format like 24 spread out one story for a whole season, i however liked hc ending because it raised more questions than it answered Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ravenbomb 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2004 LOVED Cube, Hypercube was good but a bit redundant (like Evil Dead 2 to Cube's Evil Dead, but moreso). I'll watch it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest wrestlingbs Report post Posted March 6, 2004 Loved Cube, thought it was a very original idea. Hypercube lost some of it's luster because some parts didn't make any sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Desperate Housewife Report post Posted September 27, 2005 Saw this tonight. Fucked up film. Didnt think the first couple of minutes of Cube could be topped, but there ya go. Jeesus. Also - there's a guy who's the spit of Hurley in it and I spent half the movie thinking it was him. Good ending aswell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Positively Kanyon 0 Report post Posted September 27, 2005 Cube Zero, the prequel to the smash hit Cube, exposes the origins of the cube. They soon realize that in order to survive they must trust the man who designed and perfected this complex killing machine. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That sums up in a nutshell what Cube Zero was NOT about... This "prequel" didn't explain anything! The only one I liked was the original with David Hewlett (Dr. Mackay from Stargate Atlantis.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On Hypercube: crappy movie, good twist, good ending. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Are we talking about the same movie? From what I remember (and the movie was that forgettable) it didn't answer any questions regarding who built the Cube, what it was for and so on... Oh shoot, that's right, they put "prisoners" in there after they were given a lobotomy... I stand by my original statement, that this "prequel" sucked!
