Squid Game

[MJAlltheWay24]

Anyone seen this new show on Netflix, or at least seen the Trailer.  I decided to dive in Saturday morning and just wrapped it up last night.  Its 9 episodes and I found it pretty entertaining, with a little strange.  Basically reminded me of Hunger Games, SAW, and Parasite all wrapped in one.

Left me with a couple questions that I won't post right now.  I'd recommend it.

Not takers yet?  Going to wind up being Netflix #1 show ever.

I'm in. Finished the first episode last night and went about 15 minutes into the second.

Watched the first then most of the 2nd. First episode was very interesting, 2nd not so much. My daughter said that it gets better.

The 2nd was a bit of a let down, especially in intensity, after the first episode.  It picks back up.

Finished the second and a few minutes into the third.

Question. How do you watch the show? Dub in the English, or put it in Korean and read the subtitles? I have done one of each for both episodes. I am a subtitles guy and known to watch television with captions on regardless of language. Was playing around with it and I had on the dubbed English with subtitles and the words do not fully translate. That was annoying.

I watched is all dubbed in English.  The weird voices didn't really bother me except for one character.

I don't mind watching with subtitles.  Sometimes I like to put them on too, but my wife gets annoyed.

One more episode to go. One thing I wish they would have done when dubbing in English is to use English names. That would have made a few of the events in the show easier to follow and connect. 

I'm enjoying it. Excited for the last one tonight.

I'm looking forward to discussing a few things once ya'll wrap it up.

I thought it was pretty solid. I too have a couple questions and different theories but will give it time until more people see it before possibly throwing out spoilers.

Finished it. 
The last episode was a little underwhelming for me. 
I didn’t see the twist coming, but once i realized it you could easily remember the signs from earlier in the series.

Just finished episode 4 and about 10 minutes into episode 5.

One of the most humiliating experiences of my life was being at football camp at the University of Michigan years back. We were divided into teams, and one of the games we played was tug-of-war. Our team was terrible. Knowing what I know now, we could have brought home the trophy.

Episode 6 was the best for me.

[bugatti]

All finished!

Alright, I think we've waited long long. If you don't want spoilers, don't ready past this post.
