Just finished Squid Game. Here are my notes:
-sQuid game (Shall we play a game?)
-red light green light little girl with pigtails judges you
-Faceless sadistic elites
-Human trafficking
-Organ harvesting for China
-Island with tunnels (Epstein?)
-Occult animal masks (e.g., Eyes Wide Shut, Bohemian Grove, covid, etc.?)
-On Episode 7 (perfect number) player number 017 (Q?), can look at the light in the glass (looking glass?) to know which steps they should take to finish the game
-Player 456 (POTUS 45 and 46?) beats their game, becomes wealthy, sees the horror being done to people by this sadistic criminal elite, and dyes his hair bright red (maga hat?), forgoes a peaceful life with his family and vows to take them down (trump?)
After some additional research:
Interesting fact about the creator:
(Hwang Dong-hyuk's) second feature, Silenced, from 2011, gave him his first taste of viral attention. The film explored real-life incidents at South Korea’s Gwangju Inhwa School for the deaf, where young students were sexually abused by their teachers in the early 2000s. The film became both a box office sensation and a catalyst for fervent social activism, eventually resulting in local lawmakers passing a bill that eliminated Korea’s statute of limitations for sex crimes against minors and the disabled.
I wasn't going to either, stupid coloring in a playhouse didn't appeal until I gave the preview the chance.
The first assumption is that anything Netflix is bad news. The first thing I caught was the attempt to frame the dystopia as preferable to the 'real world'.
The playstation shapes on the masks, puts the players as the 'X' button.
I really thought that it was going to be the organ harvesting that would put the value of each competitor.
Best case there was mixed comms, but that 'comms decoding' site had an interesting perspective that was too much of a stretch. (sorry, lost link)
