>>185832927Obviously saw Squid Games, which I thought was ok, I do think of it as derivative of Kaiji, but it's not ashamed of that and embraces it, making a proper Kaiji adaptation in live action more of a missed opportunity. I think higher of the ending than people usually do, because I really disliked only the very last minute, it was such a sequel bait that I refuse to believe Hwang Dong-hyuk when he says that wasn't the intention, motherfucker is lying like he's breathing.
Then I saw All of Us are Dead, which was a bit too long, but very fun zombie TV show which impressed me by how much it squeezed from school situation. If I had major gripes with it, it's that main characters got unscathed from some scenarios a little too easily, which is less believable with their zombies, it makes more sense in Walking Dead, because they are just dumb walking rotting corpses, but here, these people are actually alive. Just sometimes a bit anticlimactic or convenient, but not enough to ruin it for me.
Today I will watch Train to Busan, which I had no idea existed until it was literally namedropped in All of Us are Dead.
