I thought the show was incredibly predictable. Having seen Battle Royale, Hunger Games, and other stuff, the show just feels very very predictable. I guessed that the old man wasn't dead and had some part of the games and that the Doctor Doom looking ass boi was the cops brother. It just felt too obvious.
tbh i hate it when i watch a movie w sumone that always tries to predict what's goin to happen in the movie n thinks that he's a genius like bro just stfu n watch
@@windwhisperer1000 I know that but considering all the notes, recordings, & pictures he was taking during all those days I thought his phone would basically be running on fumes like 2 or 3 days in🤣💀💀.
Im gonna give them the benefit of the doubt for that part when it comes to them guessing the upcoming games. Maybe they didnt notice due to all those beds covering them. Or maybe the pictures werent clear enough to know what the games were exactly
I've noticed a lot of people confused about the shattering glass. The glass was set to explode when the timer was up. So anyone left on the bridge, after the timer, would die. It was just unfortunate that the mcs finished the game with so little time left on the clock. If there weren't so many hold ups, they could have finished and left the area before the glass shattered.
blasting the panels was an automatic thing for anyone still on the panels once the timer expired, but you're right it disregarded the players welfare. But they haven't shown a great regard for player welfare except for ensuring the games are fair. But keeping it all the way funky, their standard are situational window dressing and we all know this and that's another subtle statement about the wealthy. The rules only apply when they want the rules to apply.
Shawn, I am speechless of the way you analyzed the series while watching it - I watched it and then so many commentaries and reviews and only then connected to all the points that you bring up and I am really impressed of the clean way in which you analyze it while watching with your viewers. Really really amazing :) Thanks for giving me a few more sides to this experience.
I loved this episode, it was really good. Good choice by the writers to choose this kind of game. It's like you're kind of forced to work together in some way, but also pitted against each other at the same time. Your comments are entertaining and hilarious bro, keep it up.
Sang Woo saved Gi-Han and Sae-Byeok when he pushed the window guy. The clock was running out, and the glass would have blown up and they would have fallen if they had waited even one minute later.
Sang-Woo is nothing if not consistent. Gets progressively more of a bitch as the show goes on, it's astounding. Also, every custom subtitle cracks me tf up every time. Especially "We got that loud" from ep.4 😂
Did you know the VIP who gets knocked out is actually an Italian actor? I woulda thought they might wanna hire an American to have a more convincing accent but whatever.
It's hard to find American actors in SK because of visas and work permits, good US actors are unionized and aren't worth the hassle, so they usually get immigrants with some acting experience for small roles
@@turtlepope7802 but somehow they found a perfect fit for a pakistani guy lol. tbh i live in sk and there are tens of thousands old white men from america who teach english so i think they could have found one if they were looking better, but anyway they did a good job
"We get it, you are a math major" Lol. And for sure all you gotta do is follow Sae-Byok. My wife and I were screaming that when Gi hun completely forgot which tiles to step on
There's an interview where the actor playing the gangster dude said he got significantly more IG followers and lots of DMs of people asking him to take them to the bathroom LOL
I would like to point out that when Gi and the others are betting on the horses, we perceive it as humans betting on animals. With the VIP’s who are betting against humans with masks that represent animals, it shows that betting is animals betting on other animals. It paints a whole different narrative on our behavior and actions towards other species and it’s kinda fascinating to me.
I love these reactions so much bro, love you and thank you for the content :) ps: you want some wild, scifi, cutting tigers in half, Japanese version of this show? Watch Alice in Borderland. It goes crazy
Alice in Borderland's games were more interesting than Squid game imo. But I think the acting was pretty bad and the characters weren't nearly as good. Still a good show tho.
They all had the chance go leave and not come back, they knew the rules and consequences, and Sang Woo played by said rules. Like only 1 person can leave with all that money, so don't come back expecting to have a happy ending with the game. Sang Woo played to win, which I personally cannot be mad about in the slightest. I am honestly more impressed at his ability to stay true to himself and his goals throughout the show and not be effected by feelings and relationships built up during the game.
Sang-woo is playing the game perfectly, use people to your advantage and survive at all costs. This game ain't about being the greatest human being, it's about being the last one standing. I can guarantee that almost everyone would do what he did for the sake of self-preservation.
@@eeeeeee_13 Except there was nothing that indicates that he took pride in what he did. In fact, the only one who was truly proud of being a POS is the gang leader guy. Everyone else was doing what they had to in order to survive, the only difference is that Sang-woo was smart about it.
I stopped watching it myself after episode 6. I’m now watching it with you and I’m feeling the same feelings as you man. I knew that old man was suspicious!
Your commentary is genuinely so great and your custom captions also have me laughing so hard. I really hope you continue doing this with other series!! (YOU S3 would be great)
From my experience on that glass game, I would literally ask the person behind me to use the shoe that you took off. Because if the glass didn’t break from that marble then the item I thought I could use is the shoe. I’ll use my full force to throw as hard as a I can if it shattered. I know people would be thinking “oh, I would use the line in between the glass”. How if 1. You have to balance yourself 2. One of the shattered glass is on the line so if you step on it by your weight than you are done.
Say all you want about Sangwoo, but it was made clear from the get-go that there'd only be 1 winner. Everyone in the show is a murderer just by surviving, might as well realize that sooner, and play to win.
Nah but if u win u dont win. U come out as a person who is irreparably traumatised and who was molded into a terrible moralless animal because of the scumbaggery and apathy required to win the game. After you win the money, does it mean anything? Are the friends you’ve killed, the irreversible change of self worth it? is it worth selling your soul to become an emotionless shell of who you once were that feels and believes in nothing? Yes theyve been forced into these positions by the dog-eat-dog nature of capitalism - however, arguably suffering the pain and horrors of that system to survive may be better than to have your life bet on like a horse for some Sadist cunts pleasure - or maybe both situations both amount to something quite similar (with the game being at least funner and more stimulating and less gruelling, dreary than their normal lives). All that is up for debate I think if i did somehow get roped into the game i would not play to win, i would either sacrifice myself for someone’s benefit or kill myself as both seem better options than winning the game.
Wasn’t made clear from the get go that there would only be one winner. If it was then the couple wouldn’t have entered into the game. They only said “the people that wins all the games get the money”
@@louismyatt1507 Not even sure this merits a response, but I'll just paint it black and white for you: none of the people in the game are friends, and none of them were forced into it by anyone other than themselves.
@@IIMClutch Yes it was never stated there'd only be 1 winner. I still stand by Sang woo acting in the most rational way - at Dalgona he chose to withhold information so it wouldn't come to him having to potentially kill those people himself later on, at marbles I mean pretty self explanatory, and here everyone else would've died had he not pushed the guy. Also side note: the couple came back because if 1 dies, they could get people to vote to end the game, and at least one would get a portion of that money - meaning they entered together regardless of if there'd only be 1 winner or not.
@@gcrazr4life I think 1 of them has to finish the games to get the money, you couldn't vote to end it and get the money, or else they would've all gotten money after the first game when everyone voted to end. It's also the reason that sang woo kills himself because he wanted at least him or gi-hun to get the money.

@@HaNguyen-yy7ke it’s just an Easter egg the set designer wanted to add in, I don’t think it was suppose to be part of the plot.
