The approach of one-upping yourself is ultimately a defeatist one. The need to explain every little thing in this kind of kills what worked in the last one, plus the inclusion of someone who knows how the first cube worked because he worked on it contradicts what we learned in CUBE, that everyone who designed/built it didn't know what it was or what it was for but it was just a job. Making the hypercube a project that multiple people know about kills the mystique. Just so many missed opportunities here, and the ending just numbly washes over.

And how is Simon wiping his mouth after eating????
