Because it's one of the most successful movies ever and also is kind of safe - bit of artful nudity and offscreen sex but otherwise a family-friendly romance/tragedy that gets eyeballs when nothing else is on.

Phew, I forgot all about this movie! My first Don Cheadle flick. The bit where he gets out of the car and can't walk without standing on a body... spine-chilling movie. Definitely a one and done.

Reply to What are some modern movies (post 2010) with scenes that will go down in history as iconic and still be discussed and referenced decades from now? by Aquillyne
Did you just throw Cube into a list of legendary movie moments with Taxi Driver and the rest? Or am I misremembering Indiana Jones or something else?
Either way, Cube rocks.
I feel like most of the truly memorable ones from the last 10 years are either TV, cinematic video games Marvel films.
Examples from TV:
"I am the danger! I am the one who knocks!"
"The Lannisters send their regards."
Examples from MCU:
"Hey big guy, the sun's getting real low."
"I'm with you til the end of the line."
"...oh God."
"I KNEW IT."
"I am Iron Man."
Examples from games:
"A man... chooses... a slave... obeys... OBEY!"
That moment from (og) Modern Warfare II. No, not No Russian, although also, No Russian. The Ghost moment. You know the one.
🎵 stand in front of a runaway train/just to feel alive again... 🎵
"LENNAAAAAAAYYYYYY"
The ending of Journey, maybe.
I know the question wasn't games or TV inclusive, but these moments are both cinematic and iconic, and they learnt that from movies.

+1. Saw No Country and Lebowski when I was a teenager and fucking hated them. Now they're two of my faves. They're art films disguised as studio movies.

Ugh. The Hateful Eight, you’re too right. It wasn't a good enough film to justify being so horrifically violent IMO. No other movie has ever made me feel sick afterwards.
I want to watch it again to see if I enjoy it more on the second go (like many Tarantino films) but I just can't.
