Squid Game: WHAT EVERYONE GOT WRONG REACTION! (Film Theory | 오징어 게임)

Oh yeah, we're starting up *Kingdom* This Weekend! Thanks for the recommendation peeps :)

They opened the show with them as kids playing the game as teams and winning as a team to demonstrate that the squid game at the end could have been won as a team as well ? Maybe? Hmmm

"It violates the whole 'everyone has a fair chance' motto". That's the point. The show is a critique of capitalism. And the idea of meritocracy. The people at the top NEED you to think that you can be rich someday otherwise you won't 'play the capitalist game'. If they told you "You will stay at your dead end job, barely making enough to live until you die" People might stop trying or just kill themselves. The Frontman saying everyone is equal, but in actuality that not being the case is on purpose. Same shit with the glass breaking. If the system was a true meritocracy, Sae-byeok would've won, she was the most capable character in the entire show. But LUCK killed her off, much the same way that in capitalism, it's said to be a meritocracy, but some people are born rich, some people are born with a disability. Luck determines so much of your life and just like how it felt unfair for Sae-byeok dying, it's unfair that people born in first world nations will do better than people born in war-torn third world nations.

I don’t think he understands that this game isn’t in the benefit of the players, but for the entertainment of the VIPS i.e more deaths = more cash for the players and entertainment because not every one gets to win the game. Although I agree that Sangwoo should have played with his team instead of against them. But even if it hints at the fact that there can be multiple winners, that’s not the goal. Otherwise they wouldn’t have incorporated the subgames like the riot, or the knife hand-off after dinner. It hinted at that, the moment they gave them a waver to make it seem like it’s all about free choice but while in private they instigate violence resulting in more deaths, burn them alive and use their bodies for organ donation. But I agree with his theory on how to win as a team.

In the start of the show, a team of kids wins against another. So the squid game can easily have more than 2 players

The marble game rules state that to win you must collect the opponents 10 marbles. The rules do not state you must have all 20. Simply exchange marbles and both players have satisfied the winning condition. Everyone could have survived the marble game.

“Don’t Panic” well I mean... Thing is, it’s always easier said than done. 🤷‍♂️

Glass bridge - Tie your shoes together and use them nunchuck style to test bash the glass panels ahead of you. Marble game - Just trade your 10 marbles with your partner's. They didn't say you needed to get their marbles "first" or keep your own marbles.

all those theories assume that the players have the proper state of mind which is entirely opposite and is exactly the reason why they ended up in there in the first place
