Squid Game marks the beginning of the END of feature films as we know them today.
If for spending $20MIL I can grasp your attention for 8 hours, instead of 2. And can make a BILLION dollars within a few weeks, AND keep all the money instead of splitting it with distribution companies and movie theatres..... Count me in!
This end was foreshadowed by the fact that that >80% of the movie industry revenues for the past years have been coming from sequels and remakes.
Telling a story in 2 hours will become a thing of the past. An underground and an elitist artform.
