Not every movie has a tremendous ending, just like TV series that fail at delivering a great finale.
Netflix’s series creator Hwang Dong-hyuk who created Squid Game, received backlash from many fans who were not pleased with the ending of the series (no spoilers, but the ending is trash).
LeBron agreed with the masses and didn’t like the ending as well.
Once Dong-Hyuk got word, he responded by throwing shade at Space Jam 2 via The Guardian.
Some viewers have found the denouement – in which the winner makes two surprise decisions to do with family and prize money – exasperating. US basketball legend LeBron James, who loved the show, had this to say: “I didn’t like the ending though. What are you doing?”
Is James wrong? Hwang giggles from Seoul, before referencing one of James’s film career highlights. “Have you seen Space Jam 2?” he asks. Not all the way through, I reply. “LeBron James is cool and can say what he wants. I respect that. I’m very thankful he watched the whole series. But I wouldn’t change my ending. That’s my ending. If he has his own ending that would satisfy him, maybe he could make his own sequel. I’ll check it out and maybe send him a message saying, ‘I liked your whole show, except the ending.'”
But surely there is another reason for that ending: it’s teed up nicely for a sequel, with the winner able to take on the diabolical secret organization that runs Squid Game. No announcement has been made and Hwang isn’t sure there will be a season two, nor what its story would be. “Of course there is talk. That’s inevitable because it’s been such a success. I am considering it. I have a very high-level picture in my mind, but I’m not going to work on it straight away. There’s a film I really want to make. I’m thinking about which to do first. I’m going to talk to Netflix.”
James responded with a Tweet with laughing emojis, asking, “this can’t be real, right?!! I hope not.”
