"If you enjoyed squid game I think you’d like Alice in borderland "I was gonna say, it’s kinda very similar story!! Tho they have been mashed up stories like this already Think of Battle Royale from the 00s x  | |||

We’ve watched both. Hoping there is another series of Alice in Borderland.
Stag
"I’ve continued with the manga actually as I was interested to know how the game continued when the J Q K cards appeared !! In ways the games from Alice were obviously more mature. I am still on episode 2 of squid games but amazing visuals! They deffo spent more money than they did on Alice in borderland | |||

"I binged it over the weekend. Just as dark and twisted as I hoped for ! I didnt like the ending. " The ending did just feel like a bit like “oh let’s do it this way so we can have a series 2”, rather just a natural flow I felt. | |||

"Totally agree with those saying the dubbing was annoying. One of the women's voices was so screechy I don't understand how the voice actress wasn't sacked. When I turned off the dubbing it was way more watchable, but I couldn't then multitask as I had to be watching at all times for the subtitles. Man, it's a tough life "In parts what the subtitles said was quite different to what the actual dialogue should have been was my issue. That has been the case with a few foreign films and series I have watched. Most isn’t going to drastically change the overall picture but it was far enough out to change more subtle things parts. I had read an article that claimed even the dubbing changed bits too, although not as much. I assume the voice was the woman who went with the gangster? She was very annoying. | |||

I hope there is a 2nd series "Unfortunately the subtitle translation is weak and does a disservice to the script. Things are incorrectly translated or translated in to their most simple form, even more so than the dubbing translations. Often losing the point or heart of what is being said. | |||

She was very annoying."I think this is done on purpose in order to be able to match the actors' lips as much as possible and create less disconnect for viewers. I think as long as the general meaning of the dialogue is the same they do have some license to change it. I've noticed discrepancies with subtitles too when watching movies in foreign languages I understand but fully appreciate that there are certain words/phrases that can't really be translated perfectly into English. That being said, I'm never going to understand every single language I'll ever watch a movie in so all I can do is just try and enjoy what's being presented to me the best I can. And yes it was that woman's voice. Absolutely ghastly. | |||

"The “fairness” aspect of it annoyed me. 2 of the games weren’t fair. Tug of war isn’t fair because you are relying on a team you made without knowing what the team is for. It’s also very weight/strength based so men are gonna have the advantage The glass tiles wasn’t fair because whoever goes last has the biggest advantage The other 3 seems pretty fair. " *Spoiler alert* | |||

I’ve found dubbing is normally closer to what is actually happening on screen. | |||

"Watched it with subtitles. Treating myself to an episode tonight. Really enjoying it. The main actor has one of the most sympathetic expressions I’ve seen. I really feel for some of them. Got me hooked. " He has that look of despair and "I must carry on". It's a great series. | |||

With all things you make a choice based on what you know at the time, with hindsight you might think differently. It was good at highlighting this. | |||

Randomness doesn’t = fair "For example, fairness on the bidge game would be everyone having their own bridge to go across so you all have an equal and fair chance On sang woo too, someone made a great meme about how the series is meant to leave you hating capitalism and the mega wealthy VIPs that literally used human suffering as entertainment But instead everyone’s like “fuck sang woo” | |||
