No Kazan in this movie?!


Look, I haven't seen this one yet, I've only seen the first one and the sequel (which actually wasn't half-bad, though not as well-written), but since is the only one so far that have survived the cube and he got outside of it, shouldn't he be in this movie? Doesn't make sense!!!

This is a prequel.

I've seen the movie now. He does actually show up in the beginning *SPOILER ALERT* but unfortunately dies by a acid trap.

Ryjkin?! Who the *beep* is Ryjkin??? 'Cause he did look an awfully lot like Kazan.

I assumed the beginning just was supposed to show what happened to Kazan later, THEN would move on to be a prequel.

That may be the weirdest assumption about what's going on in a movie trilogy's timeline I have ever heard of.

dude.....the protagonist of this movie is "kazan"

reply

No he's not. The director has even stated that they are different people.

Well the whole purpose of the last 5 minutes of this movie is to explain where people like Kazan came from. So you should probably watch this movie first and start threads to discuss it later.

I did watch this movie.

Cube's original ending showed what happened to Kazan, but Natali removed it from the movie, and likely destroyed it. If we really want to get into it and assume what happened in this was true, then we get one of the following.

#1: Kazan was give the same test Owen had to face. If he answered wrong, then he was killed. If he answered right, it's uncertain. I believe the test is a trap, so no matter what happens, you're still going to end up dead.

#2: Kazan made it to the outside and either got away or was recaptured.

Wikipedia has a weird theory about the ending.It states that because of how he was acting when he met the other prisoners, that it's very possible that he might have been Kazan.

I'm not exactly sure what to believe, but how matter how you spin it, Kazan got *beep* and never get his gumdrops.

Is that theory still on wikipedia? Can you link me?

reply

There's a thread on here talking about Kazan and Wynn, and the Cube Zero wiki mentions that (1) Kazan was lobotimized like Wynn or (2) Wynn is actually Kazan.

Oh okay, I've read that. Not super interesting stuff, then.
