This is too awesome to not share. Especially for me, a huge horror movie fan and an even bigger Hellraiser fan.

I like that according to WCA rules the guy would be competition legal but his cube wouldn't be....so....welcome?

This is not so much a sighting as it is a quote, but I was just watching a few minutes of James Bond Skyfall, and Q mentions the rubik's cube in the scene where he is attempting to hack the computer, and here is the scene, and just so you know it is mention right at the beginning of the video.

In tonight's episode of "The Good Doctor", the lead character (Shawn) had a 4x4, megaminx, and pyraminx on his shelf.

In the movie Super 8 by Stephen Spielberg they find white cube like objects and refer to them as "Kinda like a Rubik's cube". Except the movie is set in 1979.

I just watched the latest episode of Arrow, and there was a hidden map in a 3x3 that only appeared if the cube was in the "cube in a cube" pattern.

Cool! I'll make it a point to watch that soon. I just saw ep 1 of the latest season. I love that all the DC series are back.

One of my brothers just showed my this short film called "Scrambled" and I think that it is worth a watch:

Rubik's cubes play a fairly significant role in the Netflix show Maniac... It's a super weird show, but very good if you like that kind of thing.

There's also a fairly significant role played by a cube (a very awesome looking custom cube, I think) in the fourth series of Last Man on Earth...

Oh yeah, that was a lot of fun!!
