So many people seething about the ending, not getting closure, not seeing the bad guys lose, not getting what they want. Mainstream audiences only ever want the same thing over and over again, like dining at McDonalds.

Squid Game's ending ultimately prioritized meaning and message over satisfying the brainlet audience. It has successfully exposed millions of people as unintelligent beyond repair. I'm not sure we have ever seen a movie or TV execute this on such a large scale before.

I understood the point of the ending, but setting up storylines and giving them no payoff isn't satisfying. Cop bro looking for the island the entire time only to find it and then immediately leave. No proper confrontation with the two brothers either, just says "WHY?!" only for Frontman to silently mog him and walk away.

This was the same thing we get over and over though? This was literal any capeshit movie or star wars movie where the main bad guy tries to corrupt the hero and fails. We have seen this story a million times. Holy shit you are fucking dumb OP

>>212187731 (OP)
That's the exact opposite of what happened. There was no message or closure, it's just going to be continued. Considering how season 2 ended like Call of Duty this season is a massive fucking turd. Too many leaps for things to happen. Like 011 going Half Life on base. There are literary no guards in this piece shit.

See I wouldn't actually know because I don't watch "capeshit" like you do. Haven't watched a single one. I also don't use 4chan made up words like "capeshit" like you do in an obvious attempt to fit in.

I watched Squid Game and I judge it on what it is: a fun, chaotic, emotion-charged ride, and not something to be taken overly seriously. The last part should be particularly apparent following the 6-legged race segment and the music that was playing in the background.

Alas, there will always be boring, embarrassing wannabe critic losers like yourself always looking to aggressively scrutinize everything you can, particularly things that are popular. It provides you that sense of validation you so desperately crave. But alas, at the end of the day you're still a boring loser, and clearly unintelligent.

The ending was filler to keep interest in Squid Game alive as they sell the IP to America. Season 2 and 3 only exist to remind people that Squid Game exists and fill time as American series gets filmed. Any kind of narrative that happens in these two seasons is to simply tie up loose ends and end storylines so the American company can create their own Squid Game with as clean of a slate as possible. At best they will keep maybe 2 actors from Squid Games so the fans feel like they are still watching the same series. Kate Blanchet in season 3 and Front Man in the new series will bridge the gap between the series and tie them together.
There is no moral message, there is no deeper meaning, this is pure business. The storylines were not thought out and they didn't care.

>>212185687

Nah, the whole point of the show is Gi-Hun maintaining his morals and proving to the other chinky guy that good people exist. Yet Gi-Huns morals are completely hypocritical.

He’s ok with sacrificing people for the greater good, which we see during the retarded rebellion sequence. That whole rebellion leaves a bad taste in everyone mouth for how stupid it was, Gi-Hun would have known it would never work and letting all the leavers be sacrificed to try it was fucking stupid. And if he’s ok with sacrificing people they should have used the guns to sacrifice the stays and vote to leave.

Gi-Hun is supposed to be against killing people, yet he has no problem killing for revenge? That’s retarded. Why is he ok with killing for revenge, but not killing the people who he knows is going to murder him and his baby in the next game. Why is he ok with killing for revenge but not with killing the lunchbox who tried to kill you and the baby? Is that not killing in revenge for trying to kill the bang anyway?

Gi-hun was a hypocrite, and that’d be fine if the show recognized him as such and let him be a hypocrite. But instead they don’t and then they act like he wasn’t and make his morals change the other chinky guys mind about good people existing. Season 2 and 3 were stupidly and poorly written.

everyone with taste dropped this mid season 2, how does season 3 end?

>>212189588
Yup. Especially because after he gives him the baby the father drops the pole and goes to the baby. He wasn’t even standing there with the pole threatening gi-hun to prevent him from getting across which would indicate he’s going to kill the baby. Gi-Hun could have just walked across and then due to save the baby, but instead he goes back to get the knife so that he can murder the father and then kill himself. Just very poor, inconsistent, and hypocritical writing that makes no sense.

>>212191148
some bitch gives birth in 10 minutes (in case you incels don't know, birth can take place between 5 hours to 5 days). bitch dies. 456 and the baby are the last ones alive in the final game where only 1 can survive GUESS WHAT WILL HAPPEN?
baby gets all the money
the end

>>212191141
anyone with half a brain could see that a player could commit suicide in order to fuck the others up.

>>212187731 (OP)
It's not that the bad guys didn't lose (they mostly lost in Korea), it's that we were expecting there to be a bigger payoff to the detective storyline.

>>212191280
he wanted as much money as possible, it was better to get rid of 100 immediately than tussle with him on the final platform

>>212189699
The reason Ahab fails at the end of Moby Dick is because his crusade is morally unjustified in the first place. He was a villain protagonist, he was never the good guy so he rightfully eats shit in the end. Neither Gi-hun nor the detective brother guy are morally unjustified in their crusade against Squid Game. They're pure good guys trying to take down the pure bad guys and failing. A more apt literary comparison would be 1984

>>212187917

>retard father guy drops his weapon to go to the baby, letting 456 get across
If the father was going to prevent 456 from getting across and then kill the baby which 456 thinks and is why he’s on with killing the father, then why does the retarded father drop the pole and stop preventing 456 from getting across? Why does 456 still think the father doesn’t deserve to live despite him letting 456 get across. Doesn’t they indicate he’s going to go along with 456s original plan of 456 killing himself on the final platform?

But instead 456 changes his mind and think the doesn’t deserve to live. He even goes so far as to go back for the knife so he can use it to murder the father. Not to mention he had no time to go back for the knife and barely made it across. What if he missed the jump and died and now the father had no choice but to kill the baby? Why didn’t 456 just walk across when the father dropped the pole and then said it’s ok I’ll die, just don’t kill the baby? So many example of bad writing

>>212191552
I mean in comparison to the Squid Game people

>>212191581

>>212191580
in the industry this is what we call "piece of shit writing"

>>212189588
>then randomly deciding
Try actually watching the show and not looking at your phone you fucking moron. He realized that MG Coin was a selfish ass who was going to just murder the baby anyway so he could get all the money.

>>212191552
But Gi-Hun was supposed to be a pure good guy at the end which is why he changed the frontman’s mind that good people don’t exist. I agree that Gi-Hun was not a good guy though and the writing for him was very hypocritical, which is why the ending is retarded because the show doesn’t recognize or view him as the hypocrite they wrote him as in season 2 and 3.

The majority of the Squid Games (red light green light, hide n seek, jump rope, tug of war, musical chairs) are played in the US. Really only ddakji and Squid Game are exclusively Korean

>>212191580
b-but he killed the tranny, now he's the worst character in the show, kill him brutally!

>>212191688
If he was going to murder the baby anyway then how come after he got the baby across he dropped his weapon and stopped blocking 456 from getting across? If he was going to murder the baby anyway wouldn’t be continue standing there blocking 456 even after he got the baby? Especially because he only had to stand there for like 10 more seconds. Seems silly that 456 sees the father drop the weapon to go see the bay and still thinks he’s going to kill the baby anyway. And it’s even more stupid for him to go back for the knife despite having no time to go back for it. What if he missed the jump? Then the baby would have been killed for sure.

>>212191756
Only the knockout game.

The game is a microcosm of real life. The VIP's don't lose in real life, they become CEO of Blackrock and Goldman Sachs, live to 112, and leave a mountain of raped children behind them.

>>212189022
Nice bait.

What a retarded cope. season 2 was shit. Little to no games and more stupid, boring shit like VIPs and cop arc. The games just going whatever, add baby as a contestant lol. give a dude a knife, fuck it. Atleast they pretended in the first season that it had some integrity - the kanbu dude.

No wonder you mongoloids complain about not understanding half the shit you watch here lmao. Literally sub-human levels of retardation.

>>212187731 (OP)
The main problem with S3 is that it required most of the cast to become fucking retarded for the plot to unfold in the way it did.

NTA but when you think about it, not necessarily. The Squid Game guys are assholes. The child isn't even legally his, it's his bastard. I wouldn't be surprised if the Squid Game guys separated them just out of spite

>>212191948
Being retarded is a prerequisite for entering the games.

>>212191883
But the knife was a le test to see if Gi-Hun was a hypocrite, but his morals were steadfast and he refused to kill the people knew were going to murder the baby in the next game. And as we know killing baby murderers is completely immoral, but killing someone for le revenge is completely moral. As soon as Gi-Hun killed the fake marine the front man won and proved Gi-Hun wasn’t a good person, so idk why they even tested him with the knife or the frontman acted like Gi-Hun proved him wrong.

>>212191763
he wanted that chick to get an abortion. he never wanted to have the baby,.

>>212191876
>the lip synching VIPs
fixed

The cop should get to single handledly stop the games and have a fight with the frontman because he was trying to. Anything else is bad writing

>>212192027
>But the knife was a le test to see if Gi-Hun was a hypocrite
It wasn't. The Front Man genuinely didn't want the baby to die, so he broke the rules at the expense of the VIPs

Do the VIP's represent Netflix executives? They were all gay and predatory in Season 1 and I have heard the leadership at Netflix are mostly gay men. Seems like Hwang Dong-hyuk was telling us something. That would make the Front Man his self insert.

>>212187731 (OP)
yeah, if you didnt turn it off halfway through season 1 youre a brainlet

>>212191994
The detective never entered the games and the way he handled the captain despite several warning was retarded as well.

>>212191933
yes, retarded writer just made him an idiot, jealous of his dead girlfriend for a guy old enough to be his father, instead of just letting mr good guy get to the platform and then straight to hell, your point?

>>212187823
This tbqh, it was understandable that many characters were going to be killed but getting them killed in the most anticlimatic and unceremoniously way possible was something weird considering that this is THE Netflix show...

A perfect example is the tranny dude... At least sacrifice him or something but instead we get an extremely generic death...

>>212192031
they didn't have any money

>>212192206
>instead of just letting mr good guy get to the platform and then straight to hell, your point?
We already discussed this. He never intended on keeping the baby around. He would have just spiked the baby down the pit at the end.

>>212192293
That's just your opinion.

>>212192293
What for? Gihun dies, the game ends, mgcoin gets all the money and can do whatever he wants with the child, even take her to an orphanage, why would he kill her?

>>212192365
It's not. The characters discuss this. Try watching the fucking show.

>>212192375
>why would he kill her?
because he has always been a greedy piece of shit. he was ignoring the calls from his pregnant ex before the games. then this season he spiraled even deeper in greed when he was killing people with the druggy.

>>212191931
Nope. MG coin dropped the pole with over 20 seconds left. Go-Hun proceeded to spend that entire time standing there watching him drop the pole then pick up his baby while he grabbed the knife behind his back. Then stood there with the knife and only moved to jump across after the bridge started retracting. MG coin let him get across, otherwise he wouldn’t drop the pole and go to the baby with over 20 seconds left.

>>212191933
If his intention was to kill the baby, why did he stop blocking Gi-Hun from getting across, drop his weapon, and pick up us baby with over 20 seconds for Gi-Hun to simply walk across the bridge? If Gi-Hun was afraid of him killing the baby you’d think his kind would change when MG coin let him get across? If he was afraid of him killing the baby don’t you think he’s go across to protect the baby instead of standing on the second platform for over 20 seconds and then risking getting across to the next platform on a jump which would guarantee the baby’s death if he missed?

You think he’d just walk across and negotiate try to negotiate after seeing the father let him get across instead of risk not getting across and leaving the father no choice but to kill the baby. If MG coin really didn’t trust Gi-Hun and wanted to kill the baby he would have continued standing at the bridge with the pole to block Gi-Hun after all.

>>212192474
Because plot armor so the baby didn't die.

>>212192470
Are you blind or what? He gets all the money if he lets Gihun sacrifice himself, why would he kill a child?

>>212192474
he dropped the pole after gi-hun went back to the platform and as soon as gi-hun started moving he put the baby down and grabbed the pole, how the FUCK is that LETTING gi-hun get over?

>>212192130
No that’s just your made up head cannon. The writers wrote that and they clearly intended for the front man to be testing Gi-hun, hence them including the flashbacks of the frontman failing the test and being distraught over it. He wanted to see if Gi-Hun would fail too.

>>212192520
It's fucking said word for word from Gi-hun, that MG Coin intended on killing the baby. The show actually says this. That is the entire reason for the ending fight.

>ADHD zoomer who didnt pay attention to dialogue pretends to not be the ADHD zoomer

nigger just take the L

Now with the three players remaining: Gi-hun, the baby, and himself, he makes a play that is almost guaranteed to have him win: he goes ahead to the circle tower and collects the final pole to use, and then traps Gi-hun on the bridge leading to the circle tower. As the announcement gives the players five minutes to make it across to the other tower before the bridge closes, Myung-gi refuses to move, despite Gi-hun offering to sacrifice himself on the next tower so that both him and his daughter could survive. He then insists on Gi-hun setting the baby down on the bridge and backing up so that he could pick her up with the pole and bring her over to his tower. Gi-hun realizes that he intends to kill both him and the baby so that he could take all of the money for himself, and keeps refusing, but when he realizes he was nearly out of time, he relents and sets the baby down so that Myung-gi could retrieve her. However, as he is distracted with her, Gi-hun grabs the knife he possessed and leapt across at the last second, prompting the two to engage in one final fight for survival. However, neither men notice the button to start the game as they fight and despite Myung-gi nearly getting the advantage, Gi-hun is able to disarm him.

No, he dropped the pole immediately after he lowered the baby to the ground, then immediately, without even looking at Gi-Hun, went to pick up his baby and continued looking at his baby for the next 20 seconds where Gi-Hun could have easily walked across. Also he didn’t put the baby down until Gi-Hun landed on the other platform with the knife clearly in his hand, no shit he’s going to pick up the pole when Gi-Hun is now coming at him with a knife.

>>212192599
If he intended on killing the baby, he would not have dropped his weapon and stop blocking Gi-Hun with over 20 seconds left.

Why does Gi-Hun take MG coin dropping his weapon and caring for his baby, thus allowing Gi-Hun uninhibited free access to the third tower with over 20 seconds left as MG coin planning to kill the baby?

If he was planning to kill the baby he would continue blocking Gi-Hun from getting across for the next 20 seconds so that he gets disqualified and shot and then he’d kill the baby. Just retarded writing.

The only thing that can salvage this ending is Squid Games: America is a continuation on In-ho and the seed they implemented

456 should have been shown at the end in a coma or some shit with a broken back or he should have become the front man with the baby next to him. I know that maybe predictable but so was what happened. It seems like every main actor in the show wanted the fuck out lol

The only way they can do another successful show is have it be a prequel showing the old man as a kid in flashbacks coming up with the games at school showing kids being little fuckers as to why he did it. Then have front man be a young dude who is close to him who eventually gets put in the games.

can someone tell me who the fuck the North Korea girl was and what the fuck she had to do with the story? So she joined the game as security then didn't like her past being in files so burnt all evidence. Now she's going to look for her daughter and she has a friend who was with 456s family at the end.

Okay the fuck?

I felt it was little out of place that 456 was so mad about that one dude not delivering the gun mags.
He seems like a like a person to understand that one might get scared and freeze. Was it just me?

>>212187823
This but unironically
>>212187731 (OP)
/tv/ is retarded and it's kind of shocking that it's to this extent. However, just because speedwatchers missed the obvious character motivations etc, that doesn't change that the ending was unsatisfactory and the detective did fuck all except waste screentime.
Both can be true.
If you're unironically saying that audiences shouldn't complain when a show is unsatisfactory then you're a pretentious dickhead whose opinion can be ignored.

>>212192968
They fought because neither of them trusted the other one. MG Coin literally says that he thinks Gi-Hun wants to screw him over and Gi-Hun is a terrible judge of character. There is no telling if MG Coin would actually kill his child, he even offered his ex-girlfriend to kill him in hide and seek if she refused to swap roles with him.

>>212187925
>squid game only had twenty good episodes
ftfy

>>212193157
yeah that seemed stupid and went nowhere. he should have just became the front man. the guy at the end should have dropped the baby off the edge but 456 catches it with the pole, showing him people are legit fucked up pushing him to become the front man.

>>212192798
What do you mean? The whole conflict of the show was Gi-Hun proving to the frontman that good people exist. The frontman doesn’t think good people exist, a realization he came too after he murdered all the people with the knife. He wanted to prove to Gi-Hun that good people don’t exist and that good people don’t exist, hence him trying to tempt Gi-Hun with the knife in the hopes he’d give in, murder, and realize good people don’t actually exist too. Idk, this is pretty obvious and if you think that scene was because he wanted to save the baby and not because he was trying to corrupt Gi-Hun and prove to him good people don’t exist you’re retarded, which would explain why you’re defending the shitty writing of season 3 at least

>writer hated doing the show after season 1
>actors blatantly hated the show after season 1
It really showed. They all wanted out. The skipping rope game was good and the hide and seek one was okay. But the rest was fucking 99% talking, it's obvious he or they had no idea what the fuck to do.

>>212192811
>The only innocent participant, the baby
sanest moralfag

>>212193020
>me boringly saying "she's going to the elevator, there's a machine gun in there you retard"
>"break lunchbox's both arms and legs, he's gonna suicide"

pretty boring and retarded writing

>>212193271
Any retard can throw darts at a board no matter what you're watching.

>>212193271
you are the reason everyone hates le subverting expectations

>>212193150
Speedwatcher-kun...

>>212192811
it's okay the random North Korea girl character burnt all the evidence just coz

>>212191388
they might not be morally unjustified but theyre fucking retarded. just because say multinational corporations are a parasite to third world countries doesnt mean seizing and nationalizing and kicking them out or whatnot is good as its crashing out

The ONLY acceptable ending for this piece of shit is 456 doing something with his life with all the money, opening a charity center to help others who are in need of money and opening his own local, public "squid games" that reward generosity and honesty instead to show that mankind is not selfish and evil and actually having some fucking character development

>>212192799
>>212193058
>>212193188
you guys are so stupid it is unreal

>>212192968
No, they fought because they didn’t trust each other. MG coin didn’t trust that Gi-Hun would die for the baby, hence him demanding Gi-Hun give him the baby. Then when he dies MG coin realizes he can trust Gi-Hun which is why he drops his weapon and tends to his baby and stops blocking Gi-Hun from getting across.

Gi-Hun is retarded for still thinking MG coin was going to kill the baby, because if he was going to kill the baby anyway then he would have continued blocking Gi-Hun from getting across so that he’d be disqualified and killed.

Sorry, but you’re just wrong the actions of the characters do not support what you’re saying.

>>212191388
maybe a more apt comparison wouldve been like don quixote or smth idfk i forgot that book though but i still feel like there are parallels to be drawn there too.

>>212193228
Obviously yes, thematically, it did tie into the overarching ideological debate between Gi-hun and the Frontman (and also the old man in season 1) about the goodness of humans. It was the WRITER'S way of testing Gi-hun's character. But I don't think in-universe the Frontman was trying to test Gi-hun. I don't think, if Gi-hun caved, he would've thought "heh, that's what I thought, loser". He would've just thought "thank god the baby didn't die" like any sane human being. I mean, the Frontman was literally willing to let Gi-hun kill him right then and there. He's a self-loathing husk of a human and he knows letting a baby will die will be the stick that breaks the camel's back for his morality. Idk I'm probably inserting too much headcanon here but that was just my instinctual reading

>>212193328
He is not wrong. Erase that whore character and it has literally NO FUCKING IMPACT on the entire show.
>b-b-b-b-but she started a fire and killed some henchman!
srsly? a fucking fire will bring down an entire evil organization? just fucking die already if this is the level of thinking you have

>>212193391
kek

>>212193396
congrats on getting completely filtered by MG Coins character arc. Maybe you can remember how he went around murdering other contestants just before the jump rope.

>>212193325
all I'm asking is NON RETARDED characters is that too much too ask?

>>212192996
Yes, exactly, he needs another death fkr the next round. Which is why he stopped blocking Gi-Hun from getting across so that Gi-Hun could sacrifice himself. Now that Gi-Hun gave him the baby, he trusts Gi-Hun and believes he’ll go through with his plan. If his intention was to kill the baby, He would continue standing at the bridge with his pole in hand to prevent Gi-Hun from getting across. Instead he drops his weapon, leaves the bridge, and tends to the baby with over 20 seconds left for Gi-Hun to get across.

If he was going to kill the baby, why did he stop blocking Gi-Hun with over 20 seconds left?

>>212191698
i think youure wrong here, i dont think the writing behind seongs sacrifice of his life is bad and wrongfully puts it on a pedestal, i think if anything the writing is good because he was so naive and retarded and ready to sacrifice lives of ppl who wanted to leave that that ending was the only thing he couldve done at the hole he dug himself into to make the tiniest step in the right direction. i think this interpretation of the writing is made legitimate too by the fact that mgcoin died for the opposite reason, i think its pretty clear he didnt plan to kill the baby but he was too much of a coward to want to settle it in a fight with seong and he was also too cynical to believe seong.

>>212193391
>"give me the baby" = "I will kill my own baby"
Just fucking stop. You owning yourself on a chinese forum is pathetic

>>212193058
I had to watch the episode segment because you're retarded as fuck.

Rules are basic, you press the bottom and at least 1 person that is alive needs to die, if not everyone gets eliminated, therefore the time limit.

Square you see 125 die, and then on Triangle everyone dies except 333, 222 and 456 with the round ending and having 1 last almost dead survivor, perfect scapegoat for the next round but the mf kills himself, so before they move to Circle, 333 already knows that he needs to kill someone, and the only real competition is 456, so he tries to kill him before moving to the Circle, having the baby as the easy kill.

Why did he let him cross? Because not playing the game would eliminate him, he knows that from past games.

Look at this you dumbfucks >>212193391 333 never wanted to sacrifice himself for the baby, that's the whole point, someone masking as just but is just as cruel as all other players, the final game for 456.

>goes back to wageslaving at the amusement park after spending a few weeks at a hellish death game where he actually lost and should be dead but got saved by such incredible luck
>doesnt think the encounter with the cold woman is odd after some cold woman saved his fucking ass earlier
guy is the biggest retard

>>212193391
>gi-hun says "don't tell me you are planning to kill the baby"
>mg coin doesn't say that he is planning to kill the baby
>this somehow means that mg coin is planning to kill the baby

>>212193391
Why did you cut out the rest of the scene where after getting the baby MG coin immediately drops his weapon, tends to his baby, and clears the way for Gi-Hin to get across with over 20 seconds left?

>>212193466
>congrats on getting completely filtered by MG Coins character arc
congrats on the complete butchering of his arc, all the scenes in season 2 in which he and mom worried about each other went to the trash for a tranny

>>212193579
They outright tell the rules and you don't understand that if its two players in the circle, someone needs to die? You really think 333 would die for the baby?

>>212193633
NO HE WOULDN'T THAT'S WHY HE LET 456 CROSS YOU FUCKING IMBECILE

>>212191756
for all we know the entire thing originated in Korea and they just replicate those aspects everywhere else in a cult-like fashion

>>212193613
the entire point of the show is that everyone in the games is a massive, irredeemable piece of fucking shit aside from Gi-Hun.

>>212193658
456 jumped after the countdown ended, where did he let him cross? The moment he jumped 333 was all defensive.

Do I really need to make a webm showing you that?

>>212191029
>Gi-Hun is supposed to be against killing people, yet he has no problem killing for revenge?
Worse than that, he has no problem killing the faceless guards when he has to. He has no problem killing, except when he has.
He simply wants to say "no" to the Front Man, the VIPs and any possible audience. That's his entire goal and motivation, opposing them. If that meant killing, he would gladly do it.
>Gi-hun was a hypocrite, and that’d be fine if the show recognized him as such and let him be a hypocrite
The recruited saw through him. Sadly he died.

>>212193611
And then turns into a psychopathic villain for no reason.

>>212193658
He didn't let him cross. He didn't expect him to jump as the bridge retracted. Did you even watch the scene? He was clearly planning on it being only him and the baby on the platform while a kill was needed

>>212193611
He didn't let anything happen. He gets the baby with 2 seconds left on the timer, and Gi-Hun hero leaps overs at 0 seconds. Also the next round had not started at this point, so one of them had to die then had Gi-Hun not had plot armor, and it was MG and the baby left.

>>212193430
The frontman is on with letting himself die because he thinks he’s a bad person, and it would also let him win over Gi-Hun because it’d prove Gi-Hun is not a good person. That’s why Gi-Hun never took the bait and killed him, because he’s trying to prove good people exist. He was trying to bait him again with the knife and again Gi-Hun didn’t take it. The flashback shows the frontman taking the bait and being distraught over it, showing why he thinks good people don’t exist and why he’s so eager to break Gi-Hun the same way he was broken. It’s nothing to do with him wanting to save the baby lol, it’s clearly meant as a test. The flashback shows it’s a test that has been done before as his predecessor did it to, there was no baby when the frontman was a contestant.

>>212192996
I don't know and that's the more interesting question that was raised in the show. The Frontman doesn't believe that there are good people and Gi-Hun proves him wrong by sacrificing himself for the baby but we already knew that Gi-Hun was a good person. But what is the answer to the "do you still have faith in people" question the Frontman asked Gi-Hun after giving him the knife? Gi-Hun seemingly does when he refuses to kill the contestants in their sleep but he doesn't have faith in MG Coin in the end.

>>212193674
>aside from Gi-Hun
lol
lmao

>>212193697
That guy clearly didn't watch the scene or is just retarded.

Gun-hi: You'll either have to eliminate the baby or yourself in the next round

MG Coin: I'm aware of that

>>212193716
He turned into one 5 episodes prior you moron. WHen he was stabbing over contestants to death, even though he already won the round.

>>212193466
Him murdering other contestants doesn’t mean he was going to kill the baby and has nothing to do with the baby. If he was going to kill the baby, then why did he stop blocking Gi-Hun from getting across with over 20 seconds left?

>>212187731 (OP)
>1 season squid game is just one old guy nostalgia trip
>2&3 seasons squid game is international criminal syndicate
John Wick charter 2 ruined whole generation of writers

>>212193842
That was playing the game and removing threats, not attempting to kill his own baby when someone had already made him an offer that would let both of them live.

>>212193546
>>212193579
>I'm aware that either me or the baby dies

>>212193557
Not playing the game would not eliminate him. You made that up. They didn’t eliminate the guy throwing people off the bridge in jump rope. They wouldn’t eliminate him for blocking Gi-Hun. So why did he let Gi-Hun get across if he was planning to kill the baby?

>>212193721
>welp im gonna lower my guard now since there is still like minute for the next part of the gam- WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-?
just admit you are retarded

>>212192811
>456 wins his ideological battle against In-ho/Frontman and plants a massive seed of doubt in him, so now someone inside the organization in a high up place may turn against it
Nice fanfic

>>212193905
And? Gi-Hun was aware that either him or the baby dies if they are the last two as well, and which one of them died in the end?

>>212193797
I simply disagree. It makes much more sense to me that it was a genuine momentary lapse in the Frontman's usual amorality (especially considering the fact that his entire fucking character is defined around the fact that his baby died) that simply happened to have thematic parallels with Gi-hun's current situation. I think you're taking things far too literally

>>212189810
This is true, but not really an excuse. You wrote it that way.
I'm not even mad at the decision and would have done the same and obviously it's not like he didn't care at all. Just I see why people say it kinda made the season feel pointless if everyone is right back where they started.

>>212193952
You are coping. He never decided to let gi-hun cross. watch it again with your eyes open

>>212193697
>where did he let him cross?
When he dropped his weapon and stoped guarding the bridge to instead tend to his baby with over 20 seconds left. He was previously blocking Gi-Hun by standing at the bridge with his weapon. How is he blocking Gi-Hun when he left the bridge, dropped his weapon, and held/looked at his baby with over 20 seconds left? How is that not him letting Gi-Hun across? 456 jumped because he spend 20 seconds standing still watching MG coin drop his weapon and care for his baby instead of crossing the bridge.

>>212193967
And right after that WEBM, they continue to argue. MG Coin says he doesn't trust Gi-Hun, and then accuses him of having a relation with the mom bro.

>Entire last game would have been solved several times over if people had just pressed the button before sperging out
lol
lmao even

>>212194117
It was smart to discuss things before pressing the button, since pressing the button started a 15 minute timer. It just wasn't smart for their discussions to devolve into violent arguments

>>212193795
Wrong. He gets the baby with 20 seconds left. Watch it again and pay attention this time. And exactly, one person would have had to die and MG coin didn’t want to kill the baby. Hence him dropping his weapon and clearing the path for 456 to cross with 20 seconds left.

>>212194083
>You know if you shoot someone in the head they will die?!
>*say nothing*
>OMG YOU ARE GONNA SHOOT SOMEONE IN THE HEAD AND KILL HIM!
stay in redbit please

>>212194195
Take your meds. He spends 5 minutes intentionally not letting gi-hun cross and never decides to let him cross. He shits himself when he sees him jump

>>212193975
Nah, sorry you’re just retarded. If that was the case they wouldn’t include the flashback of the frontman taking the bait and being distraught over it

>>212194240
>>212194195
>>212194176
>>212194083
he thought he was in the clear. he glances up at the clock at 2 seconds and 0 seconds. he didnt think that gi-hun could hero leap over with 0 seconds left on the clock.

take the L, retards. MG coin was the cartoon villain.

>>212194240
>I would leave my won baby with a stranger alone to do the right thing.
srsly stay in plebdit

>>212194274
Again, it was the writer testing Gi-hun, not the Frontman testing Gi-hun

>>212190989
>Adults don't watch cartoons.
Cartoons were literally made for adults and only became relegated as kids media in the 70s and 80s.

>>212194240
Why did he drop his weapon and tend to his baby away from the bridge with over 20 seconds left if his intention wasn’t to let Gi-Hun get across?

If his intention was to continue blocking Gi-Hun and then kill the baby to complete the game, why did he not spend the remaining 20 seconds after put it f the baby down holding his weapon to prevent Gi-Hun from crossing?

>>212194309
Why did you reply to me and call me a retard when I said the exact same thing as you?

>>212194309
>MG coin was the cartoon villain
Hooray for incompetent writers! May AI never replace them!

>>212192811
I wouldn't call it a victory. But it was a fitting end for him given that if he survived he would be destined to repeat the exact same actions over and over.
And if he won and actually stopped the games, he'd find himself bored and unfulfilled. He needed the games. Once a gambler, always a gambler.

>>212194357
>Why did he drop his weapon and tend to his baby away from the bridge with over 20 seconds left if his intention wasn’t to let Gi-Hun get across?
Because he's a retard.

>>212194309
Oh ok ya you’re right lol

>>212194347
What the fuck are you talking about? take your meds and reply to me with something coherent. I didn't say anything like the hallucinations you are quoting.

>>212194357
Because plot armor for the story so Gi-Hun could prevent him from killing the baby. You lost >>212194309

>>212194309
You can clearly see the timer is still at 19 seconds when he drops the weapon and it shows the show of gi-hun grabbing the knife. Watch it again and "take the L"

>>212194309
This looks like total garbage lmao.

>>212194434
Ya I’ll admit I’m wrong there but someone has to admit I’m right in this exchange here and agree this guys >>212194352 being retarded and I’m right or I’m gonna be peeved

>>212194473
>still coping
I cant believe anons are getting filtered by this story

>>212194309
Your webm literally disproves your point because 333 drops the pole with 20+ seconds left on the timer.

>>212187731 (OP)
Why did they add the dumb baby plot? I get that at that part in the game they didn't care about human life, but I have a hard time believing that they would easily kill a new born. Especially when they each could had just walked away with over $3 million.

>>212194521
You posted proof that MG Coin dropped his weapon before 19 seconds was left on the clock. Thanks for the help.

>>212194550
>>212194545
>>212194473
he keeps checking the clock and sees that g-hun stayed behind as it hit 0. the rest is just shit writing so gi-hun could have a final battle you fucking morons.

>>212193466
to be fair, that kind of did protect junhee, namsu and him (at namsus suggestion) was the only knife nigga who was trying to kill more than one person i think. staying with namgyu until he found junhee probably did more to keep junhee safe than letting namgyu wander around alone

>>212194423
Also, I’ll admit I’m right but it’s still a shit sequence and shit writing existing solely as plot armor for Gi-Hun. Very similar to the plot armor of the manager forgetting about the machine gun in the elevator and letting North Korean girl crawl back to get it. Doesn’t change the fact that season 2 and 3 were full of plot armor and bad poorer writing.

>>212194623
MG Coin was always a greedy asshole and never learned his lesson from the massive scam that lead him to be in the games to begin with. Please remember that he gave Junhee the ick after telling her when they got out that he would reinvest their winnings in ETFs or something.

>>212194595
He was holding the baby and not looking at the clock for almost 20 seconds until there were only 2 seconds left.

>>212194595
No he doesn't. He drops his weapon prior to 19 seconds left and then looks at his baby until he glances at the clock with 2 seconds left.

The problem with S2&3 is that the only thing that’s really changed in the Squad Games universe is that of the 5 characters who survived S1, 3 of them are now dead.
Of the survivors, one has been effectively written out for how useless he was at his job that he’s just going to stay at home and raise a cryptobros rich baby, and the other has gone off to America because his actor speaks English and so he can make cameos in that inevitable expensive spin-off.

>>212194757
>>212194716
>what is peripheral vision
>what is a tv show not having to show every single detail
you're wrong

>>212187731 (OP)
I don't think that this has that much to do with Squid Game. People are just incredibly whiny fuckers nowadays and want to burn everything down. No movie or TV show can escape this.

>>212194352
Front Man looked shocked and almost got tears in his eyes when he saw Gi-hun showing mercy instead of murdering enemies who wants to kill him for money. He wanted Gi-hun to fail and show that he's the same, because Front Man knows he's a terrible person who deserves to die. He clearly has remorse over killing the players, with some of them possibly being friends who trusted him. The knife test, and Gi-hun sacrificing himself to save the baby, are probably both part of making Front Man decide to try and take the games down. I expect him to make a couple of cameos in the American version. I don't know what they are planning to do with Front Man, but something has changed in him. Maybe there will be a Front Man prequel or sequel.

>>212195091
>No movie or TV show can escape this.
Because all movies and tv shows are low effort sequel slop like Squid Game seasons 2 and 3.

>>212191688
>Try actually watching the show and not looking at your phone you fucking moron. He realized that MG Coin was a selfish ass
>Bruh he just randomly realized it. All of a sudden. Trust me bro.
Nice projection.

mg used the fucking baby as a bait and said he'll drop her fucking retards
how can you defend this twink retard

>>212195238
you already lost this
>>212193391
>>212194309

>>212195275
You sound scared.

>>212195260
He was bluffing, you can tell by how much he was crying while doing it.

>>212195405
what the FUCK would be the point of bluffing using the baby as bait here, retard?

The VIP's acting was so terrible that it took me out of the show

>>212194700
that doesnt change the fact that him hunting wabbits with namsu doesnt mean he betrayed junhee

>>212194548
People lose their humanity and become greedy. That's part of the plot. They don't see human beings, only "how much more money do I get if one more person dies?"

>>212195479
Huh? He did it to make Gi-Hun drop the knife and it worked.

>>212195533
but what if it didn't work, you dumbass retard? what was the point of that shitty bait? and even if it worked, if he killed ji hun here, literally what happens you dumbass? he kills the baby.

>>212195510
He never cared about them. He was still the same selfish asshole which is why she kept rejecting him.

>>212194548
>>212195514
Most people in real life aren't as cartoonishly evil and devoid of morals as the players in the show
This kind of misanthropic caricature of human nature reminds me of Gantz

>>212195571
>but what if it didn't work
That's why it's a bluff.
>if he killed ji hun here, literally what happens
He kills himself to save the baby instead of Gi-Hun. The rest is the same.

>>212191756
It’s probably not socially acceptable to broadcast Smear the Queer or Butts Up on netflix

>>212195603
The people in the game are complete degenerates with nothing to lose and no care for others.

>>212195641
and WHY the fuck exactly would ji hun be afraid of him dropping the baby if he didn't care? he wouldn't give a FUCK about him dropping the baby. That's why he literally doesn't give a shit about his baby, retard.

>>212194892
Coping on display

>>212195588
he seemed to sincerely want to help junhee make it through the jump rope but she was being a bitch to him because of the troon and she was a complete lost cause.

>>212195603
Most of the players are meant to be the greediest and most desperate of trash. It's not just about the money, but also survival. Like in the Hide and Seek game. If you're red, you must find and murder a blue if you wanna live.

>>212195603
ya i honestly feel the same way. if squid game was real and the players were like college students and minimum wage workers and wageslave single parents or something i genuinely think they wouldnt have been nearly as evil as in the games. the only way i can see them descending to that level is if the games lasted way longer than a few days which would give time for them to change quickly.

>>212187731 (OP)
It actually is. If you meet someone who defends it you can immediately tell they are a retard

>>212195789
Well by the end of the game they were left with the most degenerate players. All the normies who died in red light green light weren't terrible people.

>>212195681
>and WHY the fuck exactly would ji hun be afraid of him dropping the baby if he didn't care?
The round didn't start yet, if 333 dropped the baby (he was bluffing) then neither of them could win because they will be fighting and no one would have the time to press the button. It's like mutually-assured destruction.

>>212187731 (OP)
>It has successfully exposed millions of people as unintelligent beyond repair.
Says the retarded nigger who watches Netflix.
Go dig a hole and kys in it.

>>212195091
>no one enjoys movies and tv anymore!!!
me when i lie and ignore reality to jack myself off

>>212195878
his """"""bluff""""" didn't make any sense to beginwith, retard. if ji hoon was a selfless faggot and he was trying to save himself in your """"fantacized"""" version then he would never even have given the baby to this retard to begin with, and would actually be the one to threaten to throw the baby. his plan only makes sense if he is a faggot that really wants to kill his baby.

>>212187731 (OP)
haven't watched squid game 3, but bad endings are for midwits

>>212196085
you should like it then

>>212195937
Gi-Hun couldn't threaten with throwing the baby because 333 escalated it to "we all are gonna die then" first when he refused to let Gi-Hun pass with the baby. At that point if Gi-Hun was selfish he would only have two options: give the baby up and try to get across in time or hope that 333 was bluffing. He picked the first option and then added fuel to the fire by backtracking on his promise to kill himself.

he did nothing wrong

>>212196242
He really didn't but he shouldn't have volunteered to go back and get ammo. Out of all the shit people did in the games, lying about military experience is incredibly tame.

>>212196214
>yea he's gonna kill himself and totally let that faggot that says he will kill his own kid for money live and kill that child
you're utterly retarded
how can you not even understand a basic netflix story and understand this guy was a fucking asshole, guess you want his tiny twink dick in your mouth and ass so much

just finished marathoning the series a couple minutes ago
pacing in season 3 was terrible, too many sub plots
yes all the plot points were tied off
the writing was dramatically dumber , not hitting the button during the final fight just so you can reserve the self sacrifice ending to service the cuck men agenda dying for some dumb whore's baby she shat out 10 minutes ago
>>212195603
ppfffffffttt what reality are you living in
whores get abortions so they can get back to partying and getting pounded every night
if you legitimately had millions of dollars on the line yes most people would be eager to murder a baby over it lol, most people irl get murdered for way less

best season was season 1, pacing and ending was so much better. 2 had a great first episode most of 2-3 were just side skits of randoms we're supposed to care about their drama. not enough time was focused on the games and nuance of plotting against eachother
season 3's final game was comically bad, just 5 clowns doing a skit and padding out the run time. glad this will be the last squid game season, end it here before it really gets bad

>>212187731 (OP)
The ending isn't the problem. The entire series was boring and predictable. Borderline unwatchable.

>>212196325
oh also the other dumb thing was the guy forgetting the mp5 was sitting in the elevator, fucking stupid. you just were fighting to the death less than 2 minutes ago

>>212196242
>Lying that he had military experience
>Join a rebellion despite having no training in weapons and combat

>>212196285
333 had literally zero reasons to kill the child if Gi-Hun sacrificed himself. He would get all the money as the only surviving parent. If he didn't care for the child he would've waited with a pole in hand until the bridge was removed, pressed the button and dropkicked the child into the abyss.

The cop plot went nowhere and Gi-Hun had retarded morals.
>"Yeah I am going to kill this guy for being a coward but I would NEVER EVER EVER kill a group of greedy men who tried to kill a baby I have sworn to protect and voiced their intentions to try it again"
I get that he is an idealist but anyone sensible at this point would be pragmatic and do what Frontman suggested. Why risk the life of that child, just so you can claim the moral highground? He literally risked teh baby getting killed multiple times, as effectively a foster parent mind you, only to epicly own the Frontman.

The first episodes were good. I actually liked the hide and seek game. Lots of characters died which made you second guess on who will actually survive but so many got killed that in the end there was barely anyone left to care about.

Turning it into another series to milk just cheapens it all. Seasons 2 and 3 didn't add anything that the first season already did and now we will have season 1 american version. I dont want to keep watching squid games for years

>>212196366
The whole thing was just a giant setup for the american game to begin

>>212187731 (OP)
I didn't watch yet because the second season took a boring turn. i thought that it was weird that the first season wasn't standalone, and doubted they would be able to create a follow up to it that made sense or would be satisfying. I was right, there was no justification fro the main character to "go back" or use his money in any way that involved revenge or the squid games creators. He should've ridden off into the sunset with his kid and had a good life, and found another way to use the money if he really felt guilty, like creating some type of safety net for South Korean citizens, or some regulations put in place to stop predatory lending or loan sharks. The revenge scheme was shortsighted and ego-centric.
But yeah I watched the second season hoping to see some new games -- some of them were cool, but the whole revenge storyline was kinda stupid. The show was compelling because of the games. Everything outside of that and the attendant human drama was boring.

>>212196085
Bad endings can be good but too many writers believe just because the heroes got owned epic style the ending will magically become profound.

>>212187878
Sorry it didn't have a trigger warning for easily upset incels

The only character who literally did nothing wrong. You could argue that he should could have protected the girl, but he probably would have just died himself then.

He is /tv/

>>212196471
drugs are bad, m'kay?

>>212196405
my guess is they contracted him to appear in every episode, but couldnt have him affect the main plot of the game show
really stupid choice

>>212196499
He did drugs TWICE and somehow got 20 year heroin addict addicted

>>212196397
But the only scenario where 456 accepts his deal is he cares about the baby. So 333's plan makes no sense since in any case he knows that 456 will die for the baby. So his plan was to get the money and to get rid of his kid and restart his life.

MG Coin didn't actually wanted to kill the baby retards, thats the whole point of saving lunchbox for last and the show making him cry a lot after GI-Hun preassured him.

he also did love his bitch gf, he just keep fumbling his chances and went insane after the told him to fuck off + killed herself without even looking at him

MG coin despite being insane by the end made the most optimal choices for all the games

Sang woo is still better tho

>>212196430
spin off is fine, doesnt cheapen it at all. its been referenced already multiple times they have games running in all other countries
the korean series is over

>>212196563
>MG Coin didn't actually wanted to kill the baby retards, thats the whole point of saving lunchbox for last and the show making him cry a lot after GI-Hun preassured him.
he did after lunch guy killed himself though which is the point of his character being a selfish piece of shit to the end.

>>212196563
he was giving bad vibes to everyone and nobody trusted him, he was gonna kill the kid
>>212196397
>zero reasons
>a 100 million dollars

I dont think the ending was meant to tease a spin off is in the works. Just a reminder for the viewers of what the old VIPs said in Season 1 about how this isn't the only game going on.

>>212196430
>Seasons 2 and 3 didn't add anything that the first season already did and now we will have season 1 american version
It was just to end Gi-Hun's character and to finally destroy the Korean game so Netflix can focus on the American version. But yes, nothing story-related really happened.

>>212196546
>But the only scenario where 456 accepts his deal is he cares about the baby.
No. In both cases ("pass the baby" and "drop the knife") for a selfish person it was a choice between "do what you are told and hope for another opportunity" and "everyone dies".

>literally using the baby as a threat to throw her if he doesn't let him live
>b-b-b-b-b-but he was baiting I swear!!!!! also I want his dick in my mouth!!!!!
holy shit the 333 cocksucker fags are fucking pathetic

>>212192130
Based media literate.
What happened is literally what they show and said happened. Front man just wanted Gayhun to kill all those people so the baby lives.
There is no clever trick, the is no subtle commentary. Squid Games is as blunt as a brick. The only thing even approaching subtlety in Squid Game is when a character will say one thing but the actor is instructed to act like they are lying, and you are supposed to pick up that it's a lie if you aren't autistic. That's as far as it goes.

Him finding the island was the reason why it was destoryed. If he didnt find it the whole ending would of been different

No, that wasn't what I admitted at all. If they both believe that only the other person is selfish then all their behavior is rational.

Would you raise some random baby if your brother gave you 30m dollars?

>>212187731 (OP)
the issue is everyone went full retard at the end.

shit writing bruv.

>>212196960
Obviously?
Just spend 5 million childcare over 18 years and then give them another 5m when they turn 18 so you don't feel guilty. Boom, you get to keep 20m for yourself.

>>212196960
I am sure if you have 30 mil you can find a way to get rid of the baby without raising any suspicion.

>B-BUT WHY DIDN'T HE MURDER 7 PEOPLE IN COLD BLOOD WHILE THEY SLEEP???? HE'S WRONG!

>>212197033
>preemptively killing people who have directly and indirectly contributed to the death of 400 other people, and who fully intend on killing you and a baby is wrong
nah

>>212197033
Why didn't he kill the five that wanted to kill the baby before the guards intervened?

>>212196405
He killed the guy because he was broken from seeing his friend killed (seeing him hanged on display didn't help) and wants to blame someone, as soon as he kills him he realizes it actually is all his fault and tries to kill himself. It's not so much hypocrisy as it is a mental breakdown. The real issue is that the show doesn't address him coping with the kill afterward aside from more comatose shots.

>>212196388
you forgot
>waste shit ton of ammos pretending to shoot at the bad guys

>>212197033
The real issue is thinking he could actually silently kill 7 people who are all sleeping in close proximity to each other. Also his fucking dress shoes were loud as fuck.

>>212197177
Frontman clearly says they were all drunk as fuck, retard.

Your cope is ridiculous. If he cared about his daughter so much, why would he even allow Gi hun, a random guy he does NOT believe in from what you say, to hold his child for like the totality of the game? Any sane father would never do that. This guy just doesn't give a single fuck about his daughter.

>>212197177
They were all drunk expect for the two young guys who weren't even a target.

It's actually mad how dumb the average /tv/ poster is.

Reddit gets a lot of flack but they aren't even half as stupid as this board.

>>212197221
If Gi-Hun cared about the child so much then why did he risk its life by fighting MG Coin? Who the fuck is he to decide who deserves to win and who doesn't? He's a murderer himself, he just wanted to stick it to the Frontman, that's all.

>>212197306
>Who also had to be killed
The Frontman especifically goads him by saying those who are voting to kill a baby.

During the dinner the two young ones were silent, and voting out. Let me repetat that, they clearly vote to stop.

Youa re a fucking idiot if you think those are a target, or would be a threat or stop 456 from killing the others.

>>212197378
You are unintelligent.

But squid game season 3 does this all the time, what?
Are you implying that we didn’t see the "do you want to continue the game? - voting" over and over and over and over and over and over again?

>>212197379
You are the retard who didn't understand how the final game worked. Frontman said everyone has to die aside from Gi-Hun and the baby, as the game cannot be played with only two players.

The vote was already done by then meaning the game had to be played then.

If he left Minsu and MG Coin, all four would still have to play the game.

>>212196840
>would of
They were already gonna destroy the island, why else would he have planted explosives everywhere. And no, those weren't there in season 1. The plotline was completely non consequential and had 0 impact in the rest of the story. It was just fluff added in to reach the 6 episodes limit to be eligible for awards. Just like the NK guard.

>>212197424
bro, we had a mother who killed her own son for some random chick

>>212197456
>And no, those weren't there in season 1
they literally were though lol.

The problem is assuming the show is trying to paint Gi-Hun as some flawless superhero, when it's clearly established from the first episode he's a degenerate retard. Of course he's morally gray, not even better than most of the people there. Why are you expecting him to be perfect? This isn't Batman vs Superman

>>212197424
>kill yourself for some baby you just met
Retard alert.
He was dead anyway if he didn't kill the baby. They would both die.

He refused to kill a baby to survive, that was his statement.

>>212188727
>this is how zoomers argue
So fucking pathetic, like children. Literal children why they are all in their 20's. It's what i did to my older brothers to piss them off and make them attack me and then i ran to my mother to whine to her. But i was like 8 when i did that...

>>212197453
>If he left Minsu and MG Coin, all four would still have to play the game.

And 456 was fine with playing a game fairly. He wanted to leave it chance rather than use the guy as lunchbox.
He just wanted to avoid devolving into an animal.

His final speech straight up tells yopu this and you retards still miss it, holy fuck.

>>212197548
He wouldn't be able to look and his daughter in the eyes if he had killed a newborn baby to be there.

It's not even ambiguous, he'd rather die than kill the baby. That's it.
You may agree or not about what YOU would do, but that's the charcter's arc.

>>212197576
There is no fair way to play the final game just like the hide and seek game you mongoloid. The ending showed that MG Coin wouldn't have gladly jumped off the ledge if they played a "chance" version of the game. Holy fucking shit you are a complete midwit retard. Just rewatch the scene we are discussing, and remember how Frontman specifically tells him TWO PEOPLE, meaning Gi-Hun and the baby, need to be the final two before the game starts so it would not be played.

Her daughter was in the US living a pretty comfy life, not suffering. What the fuck are tou smoking dude.

>>212197765
>But we are talking about what 456 would do
yeah, and 456 didn't end up killing them. The entire premise of him being able to silently kill them all was retarded.

>The entire premise of him being able to silently kill them all was retarded.

No since the Frontman had literally done it. I'ts literally stablished as doable in-universe, so that it.

Go be an idiot somewhere else, or cry to the writers of the show.

>>212197456
They had the explosives setup in case someone found the island like the coast guard. There was no other reason to blew it up.

Wow, it turns out even a fairly straightforward ride like Squid Game gives unintelligent people a hard time. Crazy how simple minded people can't even grasp even the smallest modicum of nuance in a character's behavior.

If a character isn't a literal template, this confuses the average retard in /tv/. Confusion leads to anger, and anger leads to trying to criticize the show in the most vapid, embarrassing, buzzword-filled way imaginable.
