reply

Maybe you should read my question again, you clearly thought I asked if Cube copied Saw. Idiot.

reply

"10 minutes into this and the resemblance to SAW is uncanny"

yeah, about as uncanny as the similarities between saw and home alone.

reply

Embarrassed that you read the question wrong? ?

reply

yeaaaah, obviously i am the one that messed up here. xD

reply

No. This is not like Saw at all.

reply

I don't see it. Sure, it has some similar elements, but no movie is 100% original. There are always elements of other films - to say ask if it was copied to is to be answered "no."

reply

Cube 1997

Saw 2004

Now do you see it?

I mostly cum at night, mostly.

reply

Yes I know CUBE was made before SAW, that's why I asked if SAW had copied it...... What's your point?

reply

therefdotcom is right. Way too obvious.

reply

nope.. if anything, Saw copied the movie Se7en

reply

I don't see it. se7en was religious, no traps involved and no one had a choice to live or die. mayyyybe the twist ending is similar, still a reach though.

reply

Are you kidding? They had choices in se7en.

reply

So kevin spacey didn't hold people up at gun point or force feed them food or drugs? Uh ok.

reply

copied no. inspired? yeah I could see that

reply

Not the first Saw particularly, but Saw II definitely felt heavily inspired by Cube.

reply

^^Agree. Saw 2 was kinda similar.

I bet you're wondering what a place like this is doing in a girl like me-The Mummy

reply

Agreed! Cube2 is on, and I literally just had the same thought. I was wondering if the makers of Saw were inspired by the Cube movies. Haha! I definitely see the similarities.

reply

Yes... and it's clear as day.

reply

The writer was, by his own admission, influenced by Cube, Seven amd Memento for Saw.

I think you're the opposite of paranoid, I think you walk around with the delusion people like you.
