If we had mice in a maze and then one of them started randomly (i.e. not for resources or survival) killing the others, we wouldn't be impressed or think that it's smarter than the others. We would definitely think that there's something wrong with it.
For a regular maze, sure - which is why it’s a little weird for him to say “if WE put rats into a death maze,” as if that’s a normal thing to want to do.

@@silvermoon2281 Sure, if you're specifically doing a death experiment, you might be looking for the most murderous rat! But if it was a test of intelligence, for example, and one rat started killing others, we'd think there was something wrong with it.
This is no mouse maze, it's a privatized company that hires people to just make sure everyone dies or simply builds rooms in the cube. Those who watch over the people in the maze don't care what's right or wrong and if they did they wouldn't do anything but their job.

Also a lot of people with PTSD remember traumatic events in the third person. Not in the shot reverse shot this is filmed like, but more like a distant fixed camera
@@saoirsedeltufo7436that explains some things for me! I was telling my therapist that I remembered my traumatic event as if I was another party watching it, but couldn't understand why.
For me, when a memory randomly resurfaces it is in 1st person, but if I'm focusing on a memory it sometimes is played in 3rd person. It isn't really photographic memory because more often than not, the place it happened at will be mixed with my newer memories of those same places, but it is really weird since you don't conciously do it, it just happens.
As a person with PTSD I can confirm that I tend to have third person memories of the traumatic events. For me it helps to distance myself from what happened. I can't speak for other people, though.
This movie was a little drawn out compared to the original trilogy, but it was decent. I liked the difference in the ending, very modern and not so cheesy lol
If I was in the cube with no knowledge of how I got there or how to get out, my instinct would be to go up not down, because, while you make a good point that if the building was that high, you'd be trapped at the top, I'd consider that a building of that size would draw a lot of attention, so the builder would've probably built it underground to keep it out of sight and by going down, you would only be trapping yourself more
I thought so too but what if there are no bridges or exits located at the top. There’s no guarantee there’s any kind of opening there since needing access to the top isn’t as useful as the bottoms. You know they had to get to the bottom so there has to be someway to reach there which would mean there’d for sure be a way out
I'd go up first as well. Going up is harder than going down. And my strength is going to fade over time as I try to escape. So I need to try the hard solution first, while I still can. Then if up doesn't work, I can try down. If I go down first, then I might be too weak by the time I get there to climb all the way back up.
If you assumed humans had built this, with tech we don’t have, you’d have already failed.

"How to Beat" This man just accused the single most useful character of being a murderer and told us not to trust him(he later saves a bunch of lives, sacrificing himself), and THEN instructs us to systematically murder everyone else. The Cube VERY much beat you, dude.
What is impressive is that 6 of them survived up to half way through the movie, I think at least. They were actually pretty smart with a lot of their ideas, sadly the first person they lost was due to bad luck.
"impressive" bro that's just because of the differences on how Japan and the US makes movies lol. Hollywood will kill off characters on a dime and will do it viscerally for maximum effect, like in the original cube. Japan is usually more hesitant to do that to their characters, but they'll still do the gore lol.
Another good idea would be to get every shoelace they have and to tie them together to make a rope. Then, they could connect the rope to a shoe and drop it then pull it quickly to keep the shoe. Like connecting a coin to a rope to keep the coin
@@MarverlUniverse gotta remember tho those were average americans below average if you consider besides the savant an two others everyone else was useless in everyway
Not all traps, at least in the earlier films were set off by motion or weight sensors, some were sound (granted the shoe would make noise when it lands); I think some might have been temperature sensitive. Fun fact, in the first film, all the characters last names were names of prisons. Leaven, Worth, Quentin, Holloway, Kazan, Alderton, Rennes.
I feel like since these people were in a stressful and deadly system, it is logical to assume that they are not thinking clearly. You’re claims are correct, however by sheer fear and pressure they wouldn’t be able to use common sense or thinking. It’s a miracle they even figured anything out in the first place.
Well the movie didn't even blow up in Canada, I think that's where it made the least money, at least to compared to America, basically nao one knew about the movie until after it left Canda, so I assumed that's why he assumed it was America
I also don't understand why he talks about this movie like it's another test but made outside of America when it's clearly some sort of remake since many things are exactly the same
I remember in the original movie, that the rooms move in a sequence. And the starting room they all met in was the exit. But it only moved to the exit a set amount of times. Thus they would starve before they ever find the exit.
@@country.things I thought of my name after flipping my truck half a dozen times, hit a telephone pole then crawled out the windshield as it was bursting into flames and realizing I should have still been unconscious burning alive, it came to me.
Kind of disliked the fact that the [spoiler] girl died before the spy bit the bullet. Although the traps in that one were the best. Kind of sad how the future cubes down graded their traps.
I like the fact that the "rules" were consistent in a sense like the original did. I like idea of one of the participants being the plant. Hypercube and Cube Zero are unwinnable by design. Hypercube had too many variables to consider like multidimensional travel which made you less invested on learning how it works or the characters. Spoiler: Main character escapes, but she gets shot by her employer due to outliving her usefulness. Cube Zero was just mean. Because the "host" is a sore loser and decides to ruin the door codes because the participants got good too easily.
remember when he changed his name to...what I'm assuming was his real name with "formaly how to beat" at the end...only to change it back literally after 1 week...I'm not mad I just thought it was funny as I assumed that was permanent but nah.
The 2nd cube film is based on the 4th dimension. So technically there isn't really a way out probably. Since the last surviving person got instantly shot in the head after escaping
And the third film, cube zero (which shoulve been called cubed (cube^3) once someone escapes, they are asked if they believe in god. If they refuse they are burned to death.
I'd say the ending and the memory video kinda ruined the aspect of what made the original Cube truly horrifying, a single normal group traverse a giant cube promptly trying to escape with few clues as to what they should do and NEVER showing a plot twist as to what the Cube truly is, the other two also failed.
Original cube was just an overall good movie experience. It presented a premise, a struggle and knew exactly when to end. It laid out enough for you to paint a picture of how the whole thing works, but you're still left asking yourself what traps them there. Is it aliens, is it rich dickbags, is it purgatory; the movie doesn't specify and that makes it so good. The other cube movies can absolutely just be disregarded. Complete garbage that spits on the original idea and tone, just for the sake of making money. Generic cash grab, essentially.
"Because he was a math genius" no everyone else was just had too many "and this was their biggest mistake" moments. Also, I'd take the body too! That was my first thought when Rennes d-ied in the OG movie.
I disagree with going to the bottom of the maze. This is obviously a secret facility. The chance that it was built above ground without detection is possible but unlikely. If it is underground the exit may be more likely to be at the top since it would be closer to the surface. Truth is it could be anywhere but I still think it would be underground and going up is a good play.
Always funny to see a bunch of people in the same place saying "we need to move." If one person has gone through it and comes across all those people in one place then that's the starting point. Whoever built the structure wouldn't go in further to drop off test subjects.
9:19 unless it is an secret underground facility, then you would want to be travelling up to the surface. It's hard to keep a building that is hundreds of meters in the sky a secret.
He even proved he was talking balls by the end because the bridge room and exit is midway up. Honestly this video has been half an hour of mindless waffle by a psychopath whod kill all the other people and so himself too
The cubes are likely moved by rails lifts and pulleys and are not rotated around. That would cause the floor to be a wall and the body would have changed positions
Please so the OG Cube movies! This is a remake of Cube (1997) and it actually has worse effects etc. There's also a sequel - Cube 2: Hypercube - which is more sci-fi and set inside a tesseract and a prequel - Cube Zero - more is more horror focused with nastier traps.
27:46 Assuming that acceleration due to gravity is still 9.8 m/s^2, (It might not be but seeing as none of the prisoners mention anything about feeling heavier or lighter than usual, I'll assume it is), that he dropped it from rest (0 m/s) and it was exactly three seconds, it would be (displacement) = (initial velocity)(time) + ((acceleration)(time)^2)/2 x = 0(3) + ((9.8)(3)^2)/2 = 0 + 9.8 * 9/2, or 44.1 meters God i need a life
@dragonian3159 Not necessarily a new life. Maybe less critical, says she who would expectorate and eyeball it. Or have a gent go to a corner and relieve themself on a shirt and have them eyeball it also. Gross yes. Button saving as well.
28 seconds into the video of a movie recreation that I didn't know existed, and I already like the fractal pattern on the walls (Squares within squares within squares) Kinda like the originals, but less chaotic with many shapes and lines, and less bright especially with the singular color in the sequel movie (I forgot what Cube : Zero was like, the one where a worker actually breaks into the maze to break the other guys out through a secret exit)
About going up, we don't know if cube is not underground. It's logical thought, if you want to hide somthing that big, it would be underground. So going up is not that bad solution. But I agree with the point that going up will tire you out lot faster.
The Goal of this death game isn't to kill all the test subjects or let one live/ escape, its clearly a filtering process to identify persons of interest to them
I only watched the USA version and after watching this HTB I realized how much this video is an analogy to human life. We get born in various starting places and have to navigate through a maze of obstacles and deadly risks just to try to survive while the cards are stacked against any of us surviving forever. It's like a supernatural god built the universe as a death cube and reincarnation is how we switch from room to room. Nirvana is the escape at the end. We've all just forgot we are in a simulation. Our real life is spiritual and there is no shortcut to exiting, nor to realizing the reality beyond the physical imitation of spiritual substance ("reality").
Wasn't one of those cube movies implying it was a spiritual test, where killing the other competitors would fail you even if you made it to the end? Bringing it up because the suggestion in the video to murder others to appeal to those running the test will backfire horribly in that scenario.
It was rigged from the start, not much of a test when even if you survive without killing everyone they shoot you or only the plant survives which is expected. The company's intentions are meant to be a secret. You don't know if billionaires funded a privatized facility like a prison to make complex snuff films to enjoy, if they're studying human behavior, or manufacturing a man made hell.
4:00 - it is NOT proven that traps will only be triggered by a pressure-sensitive force. They've discovered that traps ARE triggered that way, but there is no evidence whatsoever that traps can (and are) trigger by other means, too
Actually, it's more likely this is underground considering nobody knows about this or talked about it. So going up is a fine idea, but even if it were aboveground, going up is better than staying in the cube.
You're better off staying in the original room you're in, the cube revolves and when it returns to it's starting position, that room opens to the outside. Also just because it's underground doesn't mean it'll open on the top, we see this in the original as it opens up pretty much right in the middle.
Science doesn't think the lone survivor, through violence against fellow survivors, is smarter or more dominant.. that's a sign in biology and psychology of a dysfunctional subject. That's a great way to end up getting vivisected by scientists trying to figure out what made you a threat to your species. Most communal colony species don't kill each other, we are one of the few exceptions.
The thing I always find funny about every Cude movie is logical the people start close to the exit as no one is going to chairy people throw the dead maze. So remaining in the room that start in is the best option of an exit. The best part that was the right room in Cude 1. 😁
I never watched the original ones but this ending has me confused? So is she the one who created the maze or just in charge of watching over them to see how they try to solve? Also how did the originals end?
In the first film, the savant survives, in the sequel, it is a military experiment (I think there were 2 endings but this is the one I saw) and the prequel focused a little less on the cube and more around the people who ran it (to reveal that one of the people watching over it fell for one of the entrapped and jumped in to save her leading to speculation he's the savant in the first film). The ending in the first is slightly similar but didn't have a "watcher" like the woman in this film. Apologies for spoilers but wanted to answer the question haha. First is definitely worth the watch but I did find the following films fairly disappointing given the concepts vs execution. Also I don't think she's the creator of the cube, merely an observer to report the findings per testing group. In the original, the original idea was that they'd escape to find an alien planet etc but they scrapped the ending as they thought it was somewhat too nonsensical to match the rest of the film so left it more open ended. Sorry for rambling, I just really enjoyed the series so thought I'd research it lmao
@@christaylor3572 Cube 2, Hypercube, kinda confuses the timeline/plot because it introduces the concept that humans didn't create the cubes because one of the tester is in fact a secret operative, send into the Cube to try to retrieve tech/info from the Cube. And I think in the hypercube movie introduced time travel?
@@Spoopball Hypercube toyed around with the idea of time travel/perception within dimensions and between that and the observer does lean more towards the idea of it being a study by aliens (much like the 1st was meant to end) so in that sense it adds up mostly but the execution and explanations within the film itself are very lacklustre and confuses everything
Attacking people in a situation like this doesn't make any sense. They have no reason to suspect it's competitive, so hurting people only hurts yourself. Resilience is strengthened with a support network and taking in the ideas of as many diverse people as possible.
More suggestions, find out what parts are pressure sensitive and how much it takes to trigger them. Then have everyone strip down to at most their underwear, and give them to the person they designate as the last person to enter. Eventually when you do run out of things to check, I would use my non dominant hand to test the walls since there seems to be a delay and it would also be less risky then jumping in. I would also bring the bodies from anyone im able to since they could have items on them to use and a free testing item, I would also attempt to get a cutting tool to cut the bodies into pieces for more use
Weird I thought that would be self evident/obvious!? Although if you're being that resourceful, you use the non-dominant hand of the least useful member of the group, until they become a body!! >XD Remember some traps were temperature and sound sensitive, luckily the designers weren't super, super assholes and made timed triggers; sets when you open the hatch, activates when you close it.

Just saw death tube 2 last night
You won’t believe what they did
So much better then the first movie
Ah yes my favorite movie
Death tube 2
Tube?
@@IzzardBlizzard1224 it’s a different movie
What is Death Tube? A streaming service who broadcast deaths or something? Lol
Kind of disliked the fact that the [spoiler] girl died before the spy bit the bullet.
Although the traps in that one were the best. Kind of sad how the future cubes down graded their traps.
I like the fact that the "rules" were consistent in a sense like the original did. I like idea of one of the participants being the plant.
Hypercube and Cube Zero are unwinnable by design.
Hypercube had too many variables to consider like multidimensional travel which made you less invested on learning how it works or the characters.
Spoiler: Main character escapes, but she gets shot by her employer due to outliving her usefulness.
Cube Zero was just mean. Because the "host" is a sore loser and decides to ruin the door codes because the participants got good too easily.
Plus in Cube Zero if you manage to escape then you have to answer stupid question and if you answer wrong you die.
@@xXKaeptnXxtbh those 2 should have never been made or at least change the endings horrible writing
This guy's voice is so relaxing even when he is explaining a death game
Props to how to beat for being an actual how to beat channel and not some summary channel
The fact that his previous channel name was cinema summary💀
remember when he changed his name to...what I'm assuming was his real name with "formaly how to beat" at the end...only to change it back literally after 1 week...I'm not mad I just thought it was funny as I assumed that was permanent but nah.
Summary channels and how to be channels are insanely different... What are you yapping about

Hey, I just went through some death traps. Thanks for all the false hope!
if might and magic work as one, a villain's plan can be undone.
@@phoneguy4637 as a villian, i can confirm that magic is broken and should be banned :))
Okay, Captain Planet.
The 2nd cube film is based on the 4th dimension. So technically there isn't really a way out probably. Since the last surviving person got instantly shot in the head after escaping
And the third film, cube zero (which shoulve been called cubed (cube^3) once someone escapes, they are asked if they believe in god. If they refuse they are burned to death.
@@ryz3103 what?
What has that to do with anything?
I'd say the ending and the memory video kinda ruined the aspect of what made the original Cube truly horrifying, a single normal group traverse a giant cube promptly trying to escape with few clues as to what they should do and NEVER showing a plot twist as to what the Cube truly is, the other two also failed.
Original cube was just an overall good movie experience. It presented a premise, a struggle and knew exactly when to end. It laid out enough for you to paint a picture of how the whole thing works, but you're still left asking yourself what traps them there. Is it aliens, is it rich dickbags, is it purgatory; the movie doesn't specify and that makes it so good.
The other cube movies can absolutely just be disregarded. Complete garbage that spits on the original idea and tone, just for the sake of making money. Generic cash grab, essentially.
@@dowfreak7 i don't like the abrupt end to the movie and remake
.
"Because he was a math genius" no everyone else was just had too many "and this was their biggest mistake" moments. Also, I'd take the body too! That was my first thought when Rennes d-ied in the OG movie.
“My theory is that I would tell everyone else what to do and expect they would all just do it.”
The excellent 5/7 perfect theory.
(No hate tho)
Actually one of my favorite youtubers, thank you!
I should’ve subbed too but I already did
Yes man. so happy that you are back doing the voiceovers
Im so happy another Cube was made, the first one was so good
I love ur vids bro I’ve been watching for about 2 years now , I never get bored of ur vids ! Keep up the great content :D
A "How to Beat" day is a good day! ❤
It's a damn good day!
We have to respect to the builder who made this
The king is back! Have a Damn Good Day
Previous narrator was also good but ngl this guys narration hit different.
thank you for making my day better bro:) much love.
I never knew there was a remake to the original one
YES IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE HAVE A DAMN GOOD DAY
can we appreciate that "how to beat" explains in a smart way based on movies
I disagree with going to the bottom of the maze. This is obviously a secret facility. The chance that it was built above ground without detection is possible but unlikely. If it is underground the exit may be more likely to be at the top since it would be closer to the surface. Truth is it could be anywhere but I still think it would be underground and going up is a good play.
Always funny to see a bunch of people in the same place saying "we need to move." If one person has gone through it and comes across all those people in one place then that's the starting point. Whoever built the structure wouldn't go in further to drop off test subjects.
I like how everything starts going EXTRA bad at literally 20:20.
32:20 “turning him into the most horrific Christmas ornament in the world”dude💀
hrmmm i didnt realize they made a japanese version of this movie. i need to watch it now.
Finally 2 years later the real "how to beat" made a video on this. Even though it's a "remake"
9:19 unless it is an secret underground facility, then you would want to be travelling up to the surface.
It's hard to keep a building that is hundreds of meters in the sky a secret.
He even proved he was talking balls by the end because the bridge room and exit is midway up.
Honestly this video has been half an hour of mindless waffle by a psychopath whod kill all the other people and so himself too
The cubes are likely moved by rails lifts and pulleys and are not rotated around. That would cause the floor to be a wall and the body would have changed positions
Please so the OG Cube movies! This is a remake of Cube (1997) and it actually has worse effects etc. There's also a sequel - Cube 2: Hypercube - which is more sci-fi and set inside a tesseract and a prequel - Cube Zero - more is more horror focused with nastier traps.
Yeah Cube 2 wasn't that good imo and wasn't Cube Zero the prequel to Cube 1?
@@JAS0N_M00RE Yes, it was
27:46
Assuming that acceleration due to gravity is still 9.8 m/s^2, (It might not be but seeing as none of the prisoners mention anything about feeling heavier or lighter than usual, I'll assume it is), that he dropped it from rest (0 m/s) and it was exactly three seconds, it would be
(displacement) = (initial velocity)(time) + ((acceleration)(time)^2)/2
x = 0(3) + ((9.8)(3)^2)/2 = 0 + 9.8 * 9/2, or 44.1 meters
God i need a life
@dragonian3159 Not necessarily a new life. Maybe less critical, says she who would expectorate and eyeball it. Or have a gent go to a corner and relieve themself on a shirt and have them eyeball it also. Gross yes. Button saving as well.
This is what teachers prepared you for.
i just saw a video thumbnail that was 26:47 long and then i saw the 27:46 time and my honest expression: 😳
English please 🥲
Don't forget the drag and the time for the sound to come back up.
28 seconds into the video of a movie recreation that I didn't know existed, and I already like the fractal pattern on the walls (Squares within squares within squares) Kinda like the originals, but less chaotic with many shapes and lines, and less bright especially with the singular color in the sequel movie (I forgot what Cube : Zero was like, the one where a worker actually breaks into the maze to break the other guys out through a secret exit)
About going up, we don't know if cube is not underground. It's logical thought, if you want to hide somthing that big, it would be underground. So going up is not that bad solution. But I agree with the point that going up will tire you out lot faster.
The Goal of this death game isn't to kill all the test subjects or let one live/ escape, its clearly a filtering process to identify persons of interest to them
But they just shoot them if they survive or the plant survives which is planned. Who are they filtering?
I remember seeing the low budget original to this film cant believe it got remade im going to have to give it a watch!
Holy crap I never knew they made another one! I loved the first movie, will be watching this one too. 🙏😁
there is 4 cube movies, 3 before this one, cube 1997, cube 2 hypercube, cube zero, and cube 2021.
I only watched the USA version and after watching this HTB I realized how much this video is an analogy to human life. We get born in various starting places and have to navigate through a maze of obstacles and deadly risks just to try to survive while the cards are stacked against any of us surviving forever. It's like a supernatural god built the universe as a death cube and reincarnation is how we switch from room to room. Nirvana is the escape at the end. We've all just forgot we are in a simulation. Our real life is spiritual and there is no shortcut to exiting, nor to realizing the reality beyond the physical imitation of spiritual substance ("reality").
I only learned of the original cube movie from this channel. Looking forward to watching!!
it was a trilogy
I loved the movie Cube as a kid. Didn't realise it had an eastern remake.
I didn't know they made a remake! Ah, the Cube Franchise.. one of the OG death games!
The remakes suck.
Just wanna say its great to have you back!
Now two of my favourite ccs have made vids about this great movie; pyrocynical and now how to beat!
My bad, didn't know they made another movie lol
How to beat is such a underrated TH-camr
Wasn't one of those cube movies implying it was a spiritual test, where killing the other competitors would fail you even if you made it to the end? Bringing it up because the suggestion in the video to murder others to appeal to those running the test will backfire horribly in that scenario.
It was rigged from the start, not much of a test when even if you survive without killing everyone they shoot you or only the plant survives which is expected.
The company's intentions are meant to be a secret.
You don't know if billionaires funded a privatized facility like a prison to make complex snuff films to enjoy, if they're studying human behavior, or manufacturing a man made hell.
If how to beat was in cube, he's the only one surviving
The Legend Is Back 💯💪🏾
3:25 The "First Test" Took Place In Toronto
Bro's the definition of "If it were me" type of person
04:30 not necessary the meat cube; just make a larger shoelace with several laces, if it does not get burnt it will survive.
07:20 He did it.
I've just realised that the walls are covered in Sierpiński gasket patterns, and fractals are etched across the surface.
Didn't know this classic was getting a remake!
4:00 - it is NOT proven that traps will only be triggered by a pressure-sensitive force. They've discovered that traps ARE triggered that way, but there is no evidence whatsoever that traps can (and are) trigger by other means, too
u made my day, im happy cus of the rubiks cube reference, i am litterally doing a rubiks cube speedsolving session while watchin this video
Actually, it's more likely this is underground considering nobody knows about this or talked about it. So going up is a fine idea, but even if it were aboveground, going up is better than staying in the cube.
You're better off staying in the original room you're in, the cube revolves and when it returns to it's starting position, that room opens to the outside.
Also just because it's underground doesn't mean it'll open on the top, we see this in the original as it opens up pretty much right in the middle.
That's my 3 movies for tonight ,it's impossible to have seen everything so I appreciate this popping up
The country test theory is actually very cool, you should make it happen ❤
What dude 1st time I'm hearing another 1 was made gotta see it then come back to this vid. Glad to have our original narrator back 😊
I want the how to beat team to review a movie live so that way he can't watch it then come up with a plan 😂
I loved this concept in the original. I didn't know there was a remake!
Whenever I watch a video from this creator, hearing what he would've done, I wish he was in this situation just so I could watch him fail hard.
These make me so scared but I can't stop watching!
Relatable
i think its better to move up because the chances of it to be underground are way bigger then it to be above
Science doesn't think the lone survivor, through violence against fellow survivors, is smarter or more dominant.. that's a sign in biology and psychology of a dysfunctional subject. That's a great way to end up getting vivisected by scientists trying to figure out what made you a threat to your species. Most communal colony species don't kill each other, we are one of the few exceptions.
Fact: The patterns in each cells is called the Sierspinski's Carpet
Thank you for coming back. I prefer you over the new narrator.
My strategy for traps would be using strands of hair, they don’t weigh much but they weigh enough to trigger something
It's all well and good finding solutions after someone did it the first time.
Can you make "How to beat"-Videos about the other Cube movies too?
I'm so glad they made more, the original trilogy was so good
The thing I always find funny about every Cude movie is logical the people start close to the exit as no one is going to chairy people throw the dead maze. So remaining in the room that start in is the best option of an exit. The best part that was the right room in Cude 1. 😁
I had a stroke while reading this.
Man are your ok? Did you just escape a death maze? Because that comment writing was horrible. Maybe youre still in shock 😂😂
What
I think I know why they're really there! Their math teacher wanted to show them the answer to "when will we need this?"
I never watched the original ones but this ending has me confused? So is she the one who created the maze or just in charge of watching over them to see how they try to solve? Also how did the originals end?
In the first film, the savant survives, in the sequel, it is a military experiment (I think there were 2 endings but this is the one I saw) and the prequel focused a little less on the cube and more around the people who ran it (to reveal that one of the people watching over it fell for one of the entrapped and jumped in to save her leading to speculation he's the savant in the first film). The ending in the first is slightly similar but didn't have a "watcher" like the woman in this film. Apologies for spoilers but wanted to answer the question haha. First is definitely worth the watch but I did find the following films fairly disappointing given the concepts vs execution.
Also I don't think she's the creator of the cube, merely an observer to report the findings per testing group. In the original, the original idea was that they'd escape to find an alien planet etc but they scrapped the ending as they thought it was somewhat too nonsensical to match the rest of the film so left it more open ended.
Sorry for rambling, I just really enjoyed the series so thought I'd research it lmao
@@christaylor3572 Cube 2, Hypercube, kinda confuses the timeline/plot because it introduces the concept that humans didn't create the cubes because one of the tester is in fact a secret operative, send into the Cube to try to retrieve tech/info from the Cube. And I think in the hypercube movie introduced time travel?
@@Spoopball Hypercube toyed around with the idea of time travel/perception within dimensions and between that and the observer does lean more towards the idea of it being a study by aliens (much like the 1st was meant to end) so in that sense it adds up mostly but the execution and explanations within the film itself are very lacklustre and confuses everything
Attacking people in a situation like this doesn't make any sense. They have no reason to suspect it's competitive, so hurting people only hurts yourself. Resilience is strengthened with a support network and taking in the ideas of as many diverse people as possible.
More suggestions, find out what parts are pressure sensitive and how much it takes to trigger them. Then have everyone strip down to at most their underwear, and give them to the person they designate as the last person to enter. Eventually when you do run out of things to check, I would use my non dominant hand to test the walls since there seems to be a delay and it would also be less risky then jumping in. I would also bring the bodies from anyone im able to since they could have items on them to use and a free testing item, I would also attempt to get a cutting tool to cut the bodies into pieces for more use
why specifically your non-dominant hand?
@@Kou-kun_From_Touhikou If you lose it, it won't be as much of a loss as your dominant hand.
Weird I thought that would be self evident/obvious!?
Although if you're being that resourceful, you use the non-dominant hand of the least useful member of the group, until they become a body!! >XD
Remember some traps were temperature and sound sensitive, luckily the designers weren't super, super assholes and made timed triggers; sets when you open the hatch, activates when you close it.
“Travel down horizontally” also known as ✨diagonal✨
Cool remake. Although I like the original's idea of each prisoner having something that can help contribute to their escape and wished they kept that.
I was wondering when you’d make this video. Cube is literally trying to play with your head. Ever since I saw it, it’s made my brain feel weird seeing the same room over and over again.
