“I wanted to write a story that was an allegory or fable about modern capitalist society, something that depicts an extreme competition, somewhat like the extreme competition of life. But I wanted it to use the kind of characters we’ve all met in real life,”
The sequel bait was kinda silly at the end of it. What would the next one even be about lol.
John Wick style just murdering every rich person
Yeah like that's what I want to see but it wouldn't be very interesting if there were no stakes. Main character still has to be an underdog.
I mean, he's just an unemployed factory worker with 20 million dollars, and he's facing a conspiracy of hyper violent hedonistic billionaires.
It'd be hard for him to not be the underdog, unless he gets some kind of super powers or something similarly silly happens.
I mean, it could be about revolution. They kinda set it up for something like that at the end when he turned around to presumably go fight the system
I could see a series that's more detective-style going after the rich people who run it or whatever, but it wouldn't be metaphorical in the same way. Unless maybe he decides to simply rejoin the game but uses it to do a squid-revolution. But Squid Game is mainly interesting because it's a novel premise like battle royale or whatever. Would have to lose all his money or something to make it interesting though.
