Seee...i saw so many negative reviews that it was meh and i almost passed it up, only for me to see it, and i low key almost enjoyed it more than S1 sef.

Yeah, the whole thing was just centered on greed, and the love of money, but then again, i can't really blame them, some where in pretty dire
situation. Like that Baba that was in debt of 10 billion won, which work e wan work to clear that kind gbesè apart from playing Squid Game? 😩😩.
Baba was in the deepest sh.it anyone could imagine. He was owing the highest debt amongst them all. The moment his name was called out and the staggering amount of his debt was revealed, everyone froze in shock and wanted to know who he was. But Baba no send anybody papa, he begin day para for them oo, day even brag say if he easy make dem run am na. It was clear he had already made up his mind—there were only two options for him: win or die trying. Failure wasn’t an option because going back home empty-handed, without enough to pay off his debt, would be the same as signing his death warrant.

Honestly, they should have just let the Xs go, but only under one harsh condition: they’d have to forfeit every single thing they had earned up to that point. However, knowing them, there’s no way they’d agree to such a deal. Their greed, would keep them locked in the game.

As for me, when it comes to movies and series, I live by one rule—once it scores a 5.5/10 or higher on IMDb, I’m watching it. I don’t let negative reviews or critics sway me. I’d rather see for myself and decide if it’s worth my time.

Na that shock make am go devise stupid plan wey go definitely kpai all the people involved.
And I think that's why people were saying it's trash. But I understood how desperate he was to try and be the hero and that desperation led him to ruin, and that Front man was there nudging him in that direction all along.
In Season 3, I can’t wait to see Gi-hun’s reaction when he discovers that the Front Man was within his grasp the entire time in Season 2. The expression on his face is something you can't miss.

As for my predictions, I think the old woman will meet a tragic yet noble end—she’ll likely sacrifice herself to save her son. Then there’s the crypto guy; I’m convinced he’ll die heroically, putting his life on the line to protect his pregnant girlfriend.

Gi-hun’s fate, however, feels like it could go in one of two directions. Either he dies in a heroic and unforgettable way, or—here’s a crazy twist—he kills the Front Man and ends up being recruited as the new Front Man himself. Admittedly, the second scenario doesn’t make much sense, but it would definitely leave everyone in complete shock, a real WTF just happened moment.

He’s too western and American for me 😂 I just found out he directed lioness and Tulsa king

Seeee....It might seem selfish, but if na me be Gi Hun, i don carry my 45.6 billion won japa o. can't be arsed saving greedy people.

Those people entering the games clearly knew what they were in for, and even signed consent form. The only part i fault the Squid Game organisers is that that didn't state explicitly that "elimination" actually meant topping them for good from this life...they probably thought, elimination meant when they fail a game, they allow them go home 😩💀

Gi Hun is clearly propped up to be the hero of the whole thing, so most likely he will have a big hand in ending the games, come S3.
Gi Hun wey for pack all that cash enter plane go one 3rd world country like our own convert am. I don't see it having a happy ending sha.

Do you think Netflix will end the game in the 3rd season giving that the S2 is already the 3rd most viewed non English Netflix show in just 2 weeks
Are you saying they will go the stranger things route and risk burnout instead of leaving on a high?

Geez grin nah bro
That would really be a huge WTF moment cos even the viewers would find something like that out of the blue very uncharacteristic.

I also can't wait to see his reaction when he finds out the front man was beside him all along and is also his outside man's brother.
There is still a lot of meat for a dope season 3 and I'm seated.

The day of the Jackal

7.5/10

The actress that played Bianca either can't portray characters with different sides to them (I have only seen her in Marvel movies) or it was intentional by the script writers. She takes me out in most of her scenes with her blank face.

I just started Alice in Borderland and 3 episodes in I didn't expect to be this intrigued.
It also feels like I'm watching an Animé in live action.

She was Daniel Craig's co-star in No Time to Die.

She was in the The Woman King as well.

I thought she was great in those movies.

I think the director actually wanted the audience to despise the character and it worked because me for one, I was actually rooting for the Jackal to eliminate her grin

didn't watch woman king but saw her in that James bond movie, basically copy and paste of her character in multiverse of madness.

Maybe there is a movie where she handled a complex character to validate the point that the script was responsible for her acting in TDOTJ

Just finished ep 5 and I love the Bianca character. She's intelligent, focused and dedicated to her job. She nearly caught the Jackal in this episode. Without her the movie would have been like a superhero movie.
Everybody is playing their part well so far, even the foolish brother in-law.

You're right; I think they wrote her character to be intentionally annoying. Throughout the series, I couldn’t help but see her as the real antagonist. As a wife and mother, she was awful—cold, selfish, and emotionally distant. As a cop, she was reckless, impulsive, and downright frustrating to watch. I even found myself rooting for the Jackal instead of her. It’s rare for a protagonist to feel so unlikable, but in her case, it seemed deliberate—and not in a good way.

She let her own stupidity and obsession seal her fate. She should never have accepted that final mission. Her greatest mistake, though, was hesitating—she had the perfect opportunity to take the shot when the Jackal stepped out of his car at his home. It could have all ended there. But no, she had to go for the dramatic capture, hoping to parade him alive like some kind of trophy. What was she thinking? Oh, wait—she wasn’t thinking. That’s exactly why she believed she could just waltz into the Jackal’s turf and catch him like a common criminal.
