Nothing ever happens edition>>216265350
First for s5 is good
>>216270985Agreed.
Screw you guys, I'm goin' home.
>>216270985It's fine. Lacks a central plot thread, abundance of ropey greenscreens, lot of the actors are just there because they've always been there, not because they have any role anymore. It's not the worst a final season has been for a big show, not even close. But it's just "fine".
This is now a delightful derek threadPost delightful derek images and clips
>>216271071Okay.>>216266265>>216266440>>216266705
>>216271071Delightful Derek is known for his kindness and understanding, all who are fortunate enough to be gifted with his presence even for mere moments feel the gentle hum of enlightenment in their fat ones.
>>216271048>>216271071*improves your season*
>>216270976It's okay I guess. I haven't been particularly blown away by it this first half.
>>216270976>OP picWhat happened with this?
>>216270985It’s not only season 1 and 4 is
>>216270976I LOVE YOU NOAH SCHNAPP WILL BYERS
I am speaking in a measured tone of voice to you utilizing the language which we both speak.
>>216271070I think as a whole the level of quality is roughly equal to that of the previous 3 seasons. There have been problems over the years and this final season suffers from the same problems that have just compounded over time, but not from anything new, really. I'm still enjoying it as much as I enjoyed 2-4 because I'm not looking too deeply into the problems. Idk, I've just gotten less critical of things in general as I've matured. I find it's just better to take the good where it is and laugh off the bad instead of getting upset or whatever. It's a shame the show didn't stick to the same level of quality that the first season had, which I still believe is a masterpiece, but it is what it is and I'm glad to be here for the end
>>216269561I know about Tom, Dick, and Harry because of MGS3

ASHLEY KLEIN IS A SNITCH
>>216271131They fixed it between seasons with flextape
>>216271153bravo enlightened mature anon, happily downing every bit of slop he's fed!
>>216271196>Snitches get stitches, you dork skank
I do not care for all the flashbacks.
>>216271021>this is end for you vecna
>>216271227Whats he playing??
Why is Vecna frightened of the cave Max is hiding in?
derek is astroturf to distract from this bubbly ray of sunshine
So both Will and Vecna fight each other for Mind Flayer entertaiment?
>>216271259Whatever the hell he wants.
>>216271264The anti-holly posters are some of the most desperate haters I've seen in a while.
>>216271261It’s where he first met the mind flayer as a kid and he’s afraid Henry may take back control if he goes in
The three major problems of stranger danger>cast bloatToo many characters added that diluted the formuler and made it so that previously established and loved characters had to give away screentime to the new ones. On one hand, you need new blood to keep things feeling fresh and keep the dynamics on their toes, but too much too soon and you'll end up bloated and gay. The additions that were good>max, bille, bob, chrissy, eddie, dr.owens, holly (should have been introduced earlier)The additions that were not necessary>murray past s2, jason, dykerobin, suzie, argyle, enzo, etc.Should have been added>a version of erica that is not a bitch, wheeler parents properly, straightrobin (although my prefrence is to remove robin all together and have steve paired with chrissy in s3 at SCOOPS. She doesn't die in s4.)>second problems. Leaving hawkinsThis is self explanatory. Outside of a couple of Nancy side quests that served the greater plot, every extended plotline outside of hawkins should not have existed. Fullfuckingstop.>the mindflayer is the top dogThere should never have been any """""ambiguity""""" over who is in charge. Dustin's original thought that vecna is a 5 star general should have always been the plan. It would make more sense if El sent him to the upsidedown and he got possessed rather than some pseudosymbiotic relationship the show seemed to imply
>>216271222>i choose to be unhappycool bro, enjoy your unhappiness
>>216271273The mind flayer is gonna make them fuck eachother
>holly thread deletoed againhollyheads...
>holly threads keeping getting ACKedhollyfag xisters...
She's too powerful
>>216271346most of those holly threads are a diversion, they think they can divorce hollyposting from /stg/
>hollypedos thinking they belong anywhere but a woodchipperlol lmao even
>>216271273Probably Vecna is beaten but not killed by Will, then the Mind Flayer has enough of the charade and discards him to become the final boss.Assuming the plan is to attempt to use the twelve children as some sort of conduit for a wormhole (the shape Will paints is similar to the diagram on the science teacher's board) to do...something. Reverse time to pre-humanity or reshape reality, or permanently merge the Upside Down and real world, in any case presumably the Mind Flayer wants the outcome so it can dominate the real world.
>>216271388>thinking you belong on /tv
>>216271261It's where he first went to the Upside Down and was infected by the Mind Flayer, turning him into the psycho kid with powers. So effectively where "Henry" died and "One/Vecna" started. As for why he's afraid of it, we'll have to see. Maybe he has buried the memory of this happening and convinced himself it's all his doing, rather than just being a pawn of the Mind Flayer.
>>216271317>Cast BloatHopper needed to die in S3 holy shit>Chrissy in S3Chrissy being cute and sympathetic and dying horribly in E1 basically sells S4 as a horror story singlehandedly. It should have been Robin with Steve. Actually, the best thing would have been Steve with Nancy and Jonathan with whoever the fuck or nobody, but that's reaching too far backwards >Leaving Hawkins never should have happenedfucking agree. Mama's house was fine, Baldy in Illinois was pushing it, California sucked, and Russia was the worst part of the show>Mindflayer is the top dogI agree that Vecna should not have been a human experiment because that's retarded, but I also never thought the Mindflayer was very interesting either. Putting humanity onto the Upside Down makes it less scary, the human factor in the story was Eleven and Hawkins Lab, that's why S1 is the best.
>>216271405>thinking you belong on 4chins
I'm finding it really hard to connect with this season because the villain's motivations are retarded and the only reason he has any chance of success is because all the protagonists are even more retarded
>>216270976Is there a season list for those who've never seen the show but want to watch the main story?
>>216271485This is a serialized story. You watch all of them in order.
>>216270985it’s shit only ep4 is good
>>216271485It's 5 seasons of 8 to 9 episodes each, it's not Star Trek TNG here.
>>216271261
>>216271485Just watch it all, the only episode that is genuinely worth skipping is S2E8 The Lost Sister but the retarded faggot Duffers made it relevant in S5 for the first time so you have to sit through it still
>they really just let a random kid onto a secure military base without checking his possessions
>>216271502>>216271517So all episodes follow the story without random "monster of the week" episodes?
>>216271458vecna sucks, i hated him from the moment he was introduced. they had a cool, original, inhuman villain in the mindflayer and decided to supplant it with a person. it reminds me of the borg queen in st:voy. also his voice is laughably hammy.
>>216271557Yes.
Watching ep 4 and no spoliers but how is Stranger Things doing Resident Evil better than any recent (or general) Resident Evil adaptation - INCLUDING the 2 that Netflix made?
>>216271578>I wonder what the motives of this undead boogyman could be>"We live in a society, Eleven!"
They really hit bad luck with this kid growing up to look like a complete dork and turning out to be a poor actor.
>>216271578mindflayer maybe could have been cool in season 2 when it was only referred to in a general sense by will, but it was ruined by season 2 sucking cock and in season 3 it was fucking talking through billy and by that point it was even less cool than post-reveal vecna
>>216270985Season 1 is good. Skip season 2-3. Season 4 moves the plot. Season 5 has been a flop so far. Nobody will talk about this show after it ends.
also to be clear, I HATE the fact that they don't show the world's reaction to a literal hell dimension opening up in an american town somewhere. Don't give me some bullshit about how it was kept hidden. There would be NO WAY that this event would be successfully covered up. Literally ZERO chance. ZERO. Not 1%. ZERO. Some monsters would have come out, people would have looked at the weird organic pulsing hell dimension and called their mom in Chicago and it would be worldwide news. This is lazy, it's pathetic and I hate this season for so many reasons. And yeah sure, wine mom can fight a demagorgon 1v1 to a standstill but a demagorgon can also destroy an entire army convey full of soldiers in heavily armored vehicles. Writers, you messed up.
>>216271070between the likes of Disney constantly making shit to piss off their audience on purpose and GoT totally shitting the bed the bar really is low
>>216271594that's the neat part: they aren't. vecna sucks and so do the demogorgons. and the soldiers are retarded for knowing that fire is their only weapon but only one guy has a fire weapon>>216271620ultimately this show is very forgettable and depends almost entirely on nostalgia and memberberries
>>216271620Ignore this stupid person. Either watch it all in order or don't. This isn't a story you can pick and choose with.
Why is the final shot of Max in the third episode so weird looking? She looks normal in the fourth episode.
>>216271643And yes it's STILL doing bio experiements and gore better than Resident Evil adaptations. I'm not saying it's good but rather comparatively BETTER than any of this in a Resident Evil made by Netflix and that's the fucking shameful part.Though I guess you could say ST meandering and convoluted story is definitely in the vein of Capcoms approach to RE canon.
>>216271458it's so apparent that they wrote the show around the trailers they wanted to make
>>216271678I think it's the makeup. They've made her tanned and dirtied her up to sell her scavenger lifestyle which has made the contrast between her really fair skin and red / auburn / earth undertone hair much less - leading her to appear a little washed out visually.
I'm only here for Maya Hawke, and so far she is delivering.
>>216271678the digital effects budget must have all gone to the last episode or something, every other digital effect in this season looks awful, like sequences in s2/s3 were much better shot and executed and did a better job hiding the fakeness of the CG
>>216271682RE: Afterlife is better than anything Stranger Things has put out in 5 seasons
>>216271021wow what a tight ass, who?
>>216271759>>216271678every green screen shot looks fucking awful
>>216271782like shit man this didn't even need to be done on a green screen stage, they could have built a rig like that outdoors and just painted the background in after
Their reluctance to kill off anyone from the first season is really biting them in the ass this season. It already was in S4, but here there SO many characters just kind of hanging around in group scenes. S4 sort of disguised it because it had three different locations for everyone but now they're all in the same location bar Max/Holly and it's stark how unimportant to the narrative they are.
>>216271759But why would there be any digital effect? It's just a closeup of Max.
Season 1 was great.Season 2 ok, still good, not greatSeason 3 had some momentsSeason 4 was surprisingly funSeason 5 holy fuck is it boring
>>216271782>>216271797it looks worse than those movies from the 50s where they are driving in cars and an obviously fake background is in the back. whoever the cinematographer is should never work again
>>216271779just the princess of /tv/
>>216271708At least she has a role in the plot and character interactions, they seemed really lost on what to do with her in S4.
>>216271654Please anon, go ahead and enlighten us with significant plot points in season 2-3. I guarantee you can completely skip them, pick up in season 4, and figure out any loose ends. Season 2 and 3 are legitimately filler that add nothing.
Stranger in the title is not an adjective but a noun.
>>216271769Entirely fair call desu. I just wish that we could get a not shit adaptation. The source material of the first 3 games is so straight forward that they could get like 3 seasons from it: - Mansion - Raccoon City Part 1 (Leon/ Clare with Jill interspersed) - Rest of Jill with Nemesis?Throw in some Outbreak there and you're fine.Then follow it up with: - Code Veronica - Re 4 (with Op Javier flashbacks) - End of Umbrella (the Darkside Chronicles mission with Chris and Jill and or Lost in Nightmares)- Re5 including Desperate Escape interspersedMy point is: MOST RE Media outside like half the movies has been meh, with the other half of the movies being fun and enjoyable but not exactly good at heing RE. ST comparatively in the one episode is doing the impaling, gorey, bio horror RE stuff that SHOULD have been happening in at least ONE of the two live action shows we got.
I wonder if they'll ever do something in this formula but with 90/00s aesthetics.
>>216271678I'm wondering if Sadie Sink's schedule was not easy to line up with filming or something, not helping that she only has scenes with Holly's actress in the entire first half the season and probably a chunk of the second too. Maybe she was not actually there for the filming of the third episode and to have her there for literally a five second shot at the end was done via some sort of reshoot during episode four's filming, or a stand-in was shot and her just put in with visual effects or something. But she did look oddly digital like she wasn't part of the episode.
>>216271838Stop misusing anime terms you have no understanding of.
>>216271862>no argument Your concession is acknowledged
>>216271883You're not in a debate. You're just mindlessly claiming anything you don't like is "filler", a term that refers to anime adaptations of ongoing manga that overtake its publication and literally have to make up new nonsubstantial material to take up an amount of airtime until the source material has published the next part of the story to adapt. There is no source material here except the show. This is the show. Watch it all, or don't.
How exactly could you pare down the cast list through the seasons?I know Steve was originally supposed to die in 1, and Hopper should have died at the end of 3. Lucas is superfluous and probably could have died in the S3 finale as well.
>>216271153>laugh off the bad instead of getting upsetSome people like being upset about what they dislike and I HATE those people they piss me the fuck off WAIT
>>216271803because the background is all digital and weird with all that extra lighting to make her look ethereal
>>2162718124 was mid as fuck
Oh that's what the Molly Ringwald bangs are for on Robin's girlfriend.
>>216271259>>216271259>Whats he playing??came out earlier in 1987
Robin pisses offEleven pisses me off Steve pisses me off Dustin pisses me offHopper pisses me off
>>216270985It's terrible.The acting is so bad
>>216271947Steve surviving was fine, he had his own journey in Season 2 and 3, it's 4 where they seem to have stumbled with him and don't seem to know where to go with him next, him vaguely drifting back to Nancy is weird when he'd been on his own track first striking up a friendship with Dustin and then Robin.
>>216271978https://youtu.be/rrlJKhutYvIIt's shit.
>>216271982Robin is so cringe like omg
>>216271947Jonathan is aggressively superfluous and has been since maybe season...2? Longer than he ever was relevant.
>3 of americas strongest top military soldiers couldn't open a door blocked by DEREK THE DELIGHTFUL
>>216270976People are still watching this sloppa?
>>216272022I would argue that the reason Jonathan is alive is that if he dies the amount of suffering being levied at Joyce would spill over into black comedy territory but all prior seasons make it much more likely that the writers just fucking love his actor or something, maybe he's fun to drink with
>>216271913Glad you got all that off your chest, now you can answer the original post:>go ahead and enlighten us with significant plot points in season 2-3. I guarantee you can completely skip them, pick up in season 4, and figure out any loose ends.
>>216271913>"filler" is actually exclusively a tranime term with a very specific tranime meaning and only true tranime fans can use itkys
>Season 4>Completely cool reasonable in-universe way to explain the Vecna name>Have Eddie in the boathouse try to use the DND character/term (Vecna's Curse) as an analogy for Chrissy acting very bizarre then dying violently to Dustin and the group, not realizing that's the same shit they've done before>Instead Dustin just brings up that Chrissy was under a spell and Eddie incredibly fucking awkwardly plays off it in one of the least natural conversations of the showhow do they fuck everything up
>>216272022i was so disappointed he didn't get written out in s3 or s4>>216272162the second their relationship stopped being about Nancy rebounding from Steve it lost all meaning, it should have dissolved a season or two ago. i'm not even team Steve/Nancy and i think it's dumb.
So does Vecna just want to kidnap weak kids to keep in a a safe reality simulation? Kinda creepy if you ask me.
>>216272022Jonathan is barely even a character and it's hilarious him and Natalia are actually in a relationship because their characters have 0 on-screen chemistry. If he was killed off, absolutely nothing would change. repost because i had a stroke
>>216272165You’re talking about a show that introduced its final boss villain explain his own origin story in a 20 minute long exposition dump monologue. They’re retarded.
>>216271620Retard>just dont watch half the showRETARD
>>216271838This is a crazy amount of genuine retardationAbsolutely baffling that you know how to breathe
>>216271854Yellowjackets is half-assed doing the 90s thing.and oh hey it's also shit after season 1!
>3 fucking years>get the sloppiest CGIIm pissed
>>216271968>Thank you, we have your resume and foreheadshot, and we'll be in touch.
>>216271131they just slapped some steel plates over itbada bing bada boom
>>216272271>>216272291Samefag absolutely SEETHING at the fact season 2 and 3 are absolutely pointless lol
is the retard who got mad when I said season 2 boiled down to will spazzing out in a hospital bed still around lmao
>>216271556they also all stood in each others crossfire and did less damage to the demogorgons than a tipsy woman with a broken bottle
What’s the point of Mike Wheeler?
>>216272416buffing bard
>>216272416i'm glad he had something to do other than stand around and look confused this season
>>216272416he's the leader of the group transformed from the norm from the nuclear goop
>Season 1MK Ultra children. Upside down world mystery. >Season 2Racist brother pointless poojeeta>Season 3Russia and ??>Season 4 Eddie dies. Vecna revealed as main protagonist >Season 5Vecna was actually diddled in a cave and a good boy all along? Did i miss any actual plot points?
>>216272416Eye candy. Unironically
>>216272454yes because you are a retard
HAGAG
>>216271317Murray shouldn't even exist, whole Russia plot was dumb af.
>>216272416He bonks
>>216272496he was fine in S3 as this greasy jewish crackpot reporter slimeball but then they had to lionize him in S4
>>216272022Who is Jonathan?
>>216271153I CANT STAND THE LOOK OF THIS GUYS FACE. He is too young and immature looking to be the big bad- he looks and sounds like a 14yr old larping as an adult, wearing his grandpa’s old suit.
Is Millie bimbomaxxing in S5?
>>216272472Still waiting for some enlightenment. Or are (You) just a projecting retard that's too asshurt to admit most the show is pointless filler? we already know you are
>>216272554She's ugly, does that count?
>>216272458>ugly ass jew caricature is the "eye candy" of the showGrim
>>216272624Well the show isn’t called Normal Things is it?
>>216271814>here's that nine year old I was telling you about
>>216272481nice Milf
>>216272642>traditional Indiana suburbia has gays, jews and non-whitesGuess it all makes sense now
Holly Things
what is Vecna motivation besides spider fetish and raping children?
>>216272412i noticed that too. they all surrounded one of the demogorgons in a circle to shoot at him. i hope nobody missed
>>216272770He says that the young are weak physically and mentally, therefore easier to mind break and shape them how he wants. He’s obviously building an army.
>>216272770>>216272839He clearly became the scapegoat for the MK Ultra angle
Probably the most meme moment of the season so far.
at the very least watching this season gave me the desire to play neverwinter nights again
>>216270976Alright so I need to correct myself from previous threads.There was some confusion from people on who the "special forces" were. It was clear that the guys at the MAC-Z weren't special forces, so I assumed what differentiated special forces from grunts was the vests with upturned collars.However, I should've been looking at the emblems. On the right shoulder of characters with these vests and upturned collars, you're either going to see an emblem of the 10th Mountain Division, or pic related of the Criminal Investigation Division.Lieutenant Akers, Sergeant Ramirez, and the four guys at the wall were 10th Mountain Division. Sullivan and all the guys at the research facility were CID. Hopper referred only to Lieutenant Akers as special forces, so I guess the 10th Mountain Division emblem is a stand in force a special forces emblem.That'd mean there was only one special forces member at the MAC-Z (Ramirez, who got facefucked by Vecna), and that the two guys who unloaded on the scientist with Akers weren't special forces. Unless the show is trying to show CID as special forces, but even then Hopper referred to the CID guy in the guard tower as a "grunt."
I'M NOT GAY!
>>216270976>>216273164Emblem on the right is the 10th Mountain Division. Photos of Akers in episode 1. The wolf emblem is on both special forces/10th Mountain Div. and CID guys, as well as appearing off-and-on on random soldiers at the MAC-Z. The majority of the latter have no emblems, though.
>>216272416hes just there for Will's storyline and also just to help move the plot along, he has no storyline of his own. similar to Lucas but he might have something later with Max.his character has nothing going on with eleven and even the two actors dont have much chemistry.
>>216273185QUICK CORRECTION TO MY CORRECTIONThe MAC-Z guys I was thinking of don't have the wolf emblem; they have some other yellow emblem I can't identify.
>>216272500NEXT TIME EAT A SALAD!OH YEAAAH!!!
>>216273329Holly is acleric who are going to have the power to open portals. It's pretty obvious she is going to save kids and Max.
>>216273259Alright so that's the emblem for the Indiana Army National Guard.Private Chapman is the only named character wearing it,https://www.instagram.com/riggseyyy/p/DRlKY36jI18/?hl=en&img_index=6
Aura
>>216273478TASTE THE RAINBOW, MOTHERFUCKER!!!!
>>216273478He is sort of like a bridge and we have tbe episode named like this.
Not just /tv/, whole instagram is drooling over Holly. What the hell! cunny is normalised.
>>216273502I have no idea why it's happening. It's unsettling. Is it because she went with adult male imaginaty friend?
>>216270976If this show had any balls it would have killed one of the main '''kids''' in the first episode. They couldn't even commit to killing Max.
>>216273539Nog got mauled and left in the tunnels. So maybe they will get to him when it will be too late.
Did Henry get raped in the cave?
>>216273571He was lost like Will, but in a dessert in Nevada. He came back different.
Byler endgame or we riot
>>216273611Byler isn't happening. Mike is going to be like Steve to Robin.
>>216272416He’s the dungeon master
>>216273611I can’t wait for the gay shipping fags to have mega melties when Mike ends up with Eleven still. They basically told you in episode 4 that Will won’t be with Mike but the retards are still shipping them.
>>216273603>in a dessert
The overlook behind the cave is literally the same shot of Henry entering the upside down, he’s terrified either of the lab or the in-between
>>216273656HAHAHAAAA!That SS .... .
>>216273639>>216273651We will sip your tears on the beach when Byler triumphs over your delusions, chuds
I swear to fucking god it’s gonna be so gay if it turns out Henry is actually hiding in the Nevada-place max is chilling in, and it’s the mind flayer controlling his monster self. And the whole thing is about childhood trauma and max and holly the latter being a cleric, cleanses him and transports real Henry back to the world
lil gay bowl cut boy ain’t gonna do shit to vecna
>>216272554no, they're hiding her ginormous tits under layers of clothes.
>rewatching Season 1 >everything related to Updside-Down is toxicWhat happened with that plot point?
>>216273164>>216273185>>216273259>>216273474Breakdown:Wolf Pack consists of Criminal Investigation Division (CID) and 10th Mountain Division.10th Mountain Division consists of Lieutenant Akers, Sergeant Ramirez and the four other guys at the wall in episode 3. Akers is unconscious in the lab with his face burnt, and Ramirez was killed by Vecna face-fucking him.CID consists of Sullivan and the guys guarding and backing up Akers in the lab in episode 4. Sullivan last seen rolling around while on fire after Vecna detonated fuel tanks.Indiana National Guard were who were at the MAC-Z. Private Chapman busted down the bathroom door and was the first guy to die when he shoved Sullivan out of the way and got his brains goomba stomped by a demogorgon.
>>216273751kinda just forgot
>>216273762oh my god who the hell cares

Steve is gonna end up with Kali.
>>216273919None of the current girls in the show are going to be with Steve.
I can't believe they referenced that one episode from S2 that everyone hated. I thought for sure it was just going to be memory holed.
>>216273329It's turkeys made out of paper plates, which is also a bravo Duffer considering the date of release.
they actually have a real radio station called the squawk that you can listen to, it plays 80s classics and gives updates on hawkins every hour. kinda neat.
>>216273964I think it's not a refetence.You need 20 to defeat Vecna.20=11+8+1

>>216274034True

>>216274010link: https://media-ssl.musicradio.com/WSQK
>>216274206Joyce. She needs to die so Will could be finally free.
>>216274205
is eulogy from season 2 the best original song in the show’s history?
So when does part 2 come out?
>>216274205What the fuck? Where has she been hiding those bazongas?
how many hollies is too many
>>216274206VecnaEleven (she isn't going to let Hopper to commit a suicide)
>>216274205dayum robin eating good
Do you think they'll kill Jonathan? He seems like such an unimportant character, the writers have genuinely no idea what to do with him besides just being Nancy's boyfriend
New theory: Vecna is directly inserting reddit feed into Robin's mind. That's the only way to explain the general way she talks now.
justice for delightful derek
>>216274324That is not Robin, that is her love interest.
>>216274360yeah I know, robin is eating good, as in sucking on those big boobies
>>216274222I always wanted to see Steve interacting with Will.
>>216274344you could say that about half of the main cast at this point
wheres mindflayer? he just chillin?
>>216274249Nice
>>216274222tina and the female lifeguard from season 3
>>216274351How would Robin talk if he inserted 4chan threads instead.
>>216274395idk but they’re gonna have to kill his ass
>>216272753Mmmmm cake
Canonically speaking, who’s got the fattest cock in Hawkins?
>>216271799They can't even kill off Mike's parents and they're literally non-characters
>>216273329turkeys
>>216274344I think they just gave up on him after S1 when he started looking like he was 40.
>>216274439me when Holly's on screen
>>216274439Alive: TedDead: Billy or Brenner
>>216272753>Director: OK little girl, in this next scene I need you to just act really fucking sexyBased
>>216274410Don't think they can show that on Netflix.
>>216274395Watch the trailer, next episode " Shock jock"
>>216274439Derek. That's why he keeps telling everyone to suck his fat one and nobody denies it.
Do you think they wanted to have more MF in season 4 and 5 but it was too expensive and/or they couldn't find a way for a bunch of teenagers and 20-somethings to defeat the eldritch lovecraftian titan so they had to resort to lil Veccy?
>>216274297Dec 25
So Vecna has a plan for Will right? Why else wouldn't he straight up kill him and his friends when he went over?
Harry potter had faster releases and schedule than ST, it’s absolutely ridiculous to have had waited 3 years for this Nancy looks middle age FFS
>>216274592>Nancy looks middle age FFSIt's not age problem in her case.
>>216274570What the fuck
>>216274582He did. He sent the demis after them but in typical villain fashion where he won't kill himself but makes his lackeys do it.
>>216274616Aren't you happy with your Christmas gift? Finale comes out on new year's eve by the way. Make sure to have a new year's eve watch party with all your friends and post it on social media!!
>>216274512Yes. It's a reference to how the 12 year old girl cums on the fat kids giant cock in IT
>>216271261He was molested by his scout leader in that cave
>>216271273Will isn't surviving the season
>>216274626That's my point. He was right there. Joyce was even right there in his face at one point and he just pushed her aside. Meanwhile white army dude #17 gets his head and eyes impaled. He was right there. He could've made all their heads explode.
>>216274637The cave is where he first encountered the mindflayer.
>>216274651maybe his goal is to make gayboy will his ally so killing his mom is a nono
>vecnaIsn't that name from critical role?
>>216274582Caleb's actor one in interview have said to expect betrayl this season. Mayve Vecna making army if children who can defeat the Mindflayer.
>>216271618yeah season 3 made the flayer super lame and gay. Not that it was particularly mind-blowing beforehandVecna is cooler
>>216273751The actors didn't like having to wear the suits 'they couldn't EMOTE!!!'So now everyone just runs around in there
>>216274188Kek
>>216271071DERICK DID YOU TAKE MY PANTIES FROM THE :AUNDRY AGAIN?!
>>216274651He knew Joyce so it makes some sense that he didn't want to kill her
>>216274652No, it where he was molested
>>216274775>suck a fat one
>>216274786That didn't happen in the play.
>>216274779this such an asspull wasn’t he in the special institution by that time
A few months ago I had passionate sex with a tomboy who kind of looks like a plump Nancy and I’m still not over it.
id complain a bit on variety in terms of monsters. its just the same thing for 5 seasons know. like throw in a new mutation or something. also them cold bloodedly murdering the army personel still seems weirdly awkward.
They’ve completely memoryholed demogorgans detecting prey via blood.
>>216274807I only remember that Eleven threw him into Upside-Down like 4 years before Season 1.
The amount of Holly edits in Instagram and Tiktok. And the comment section is wild. What happened to the child protection laws? I thought they were enforcing this shit. More pedos in there than the occasional bait posting here.
>>216274913what kind of edits are you talking about?
>>216274724>>vecna>Isn't that name from critical role?It's from d&d https://5e.tools/deities.html#vecna_greyhawk_xdmg
>>216274859Imagine being this dude and having Tina for a daughter.No wonder he drinks.
Why does Vecna have a memory in highschool in 1959 when he is clearly way younger than that? Can someone explain this timeline to me?
>Tina mothers my kids
>>216274975He is part of Joyce acting club.
>>216274975
>>216270976S5 should have started out as a Day of the Dead homage. Citizens infected by upside down dust/goo like in S3. The gang split up around Hawkins and have to meet up at the mall. They could still do the military quarantine thing.
>>216274975The play changed his age.
>>216274924Not anything lewd, kind of best girl cutiepie edit. Also the henry part where he shows around house and the clapping sound transition to song.
>>216275042>>216275021>>216275009But how old was he when Eleven yeeted him and what year was that in? Is it not like at least 20 years later? Vecna has never looked above the age of mid twenties.
>>216275072why would there need to be child protection laws against people adding glow filters to a scene of a girl from a tv show or whatever
>>216275085You didn't see the comment section
>>216275082according to the wiki, in the stage play henry moves to hawkins in 1959 and goes to high school. eleven sent him to dimension x in 1979.
>>216275082>In an interview published on June 2, 2022, the Duffer Brothers said they estimated Henry to be in his late 20s in 1979, with Matt Duffer specifically saying he believed him to be 29. However, the Duffers also admitted a lack of confidence in their estimates and that "someone on Reddit" saying otherwise might be correct>The stage play Stranger Things: The First Shadow depicts Henry in October 1959 as a 14-year-old high school freshman. This would make 1945 his birth year
I just finished the 4th episode.What a fucking disaster.>Hyping up a shit tier character like Vecna>Bringing back a shit character from the worst episode of the entire seriesWhat the fuck are they doing?
>>216272770>raping childrenthats the whole fucking point, this show is entertaining yet fully jewish, with jewish actors, holocaust-like tattoos, netflix is not available in the countries that directly challenge the jewish supremacy, ie china
>>216275121>>216275122So I'm supposed to believe he is either 34 when eleven blew him up, or I'm supposed to believe he was having these highschool memories when he was 9 years old? Because I don't think either of those make sense, does it? It's a highschool, no?
>watching Season 1>Hopped just randomly drooledKek
>>216272313SEX WITH JACKIE
>>216275160it's called suspension of disbelief
>>216274975S1 takes place in 1983. Joyce was in high school in 1959. If we assume she was a freshman that year, she had Will about 10 years after graduating. The kids are middle school by S1 so they're around 11-12 which places them born in the early 70s. Johnathan is a few years older than Will so she was pregnant probably right after high school. It makes sense on paper but it feels weird because they never set this timeline up until now.
>>216275160I mean the actor was 33-34 during Season 4.
She had a kid already? dammit i'm old
>>216275021In a small town it makes sense that the parents would have gone to the same school. However the parents had little interaction and all acted like they only knew each other through the kids.
>>216275190>>216275216>Joyce>between 1941 and 1942>Will>1967According to wiki so i'm not sure if it's actually canon.
>>216275260Millie Bobbie Brown IRL
Was there season in which Joyce wasn't hysterical schizo ?
>>216275390In Season 1 she was hysterical but not a schizo.
>>216275317She adopted, didn’t get preggers.
>>216275021>patty newbybob’s sister?
>>216271838Season 4 centers entirely around Max, a character you would not even know if you skipped 2 and 3. Please stop being retarded
>>216272888What the jew doing?
>>216271261Why do people ask these questions? It's clearly a set up for something that will be explained later. You're like my fucking mother who "that guy" is in a movie we only just started watching
>>216271317I still think them changing Robin from a cute and smart alt girl to le quirky chungus social anxiety girl was the worst decision the show ever made
>>216272888this made me actually chuckle out loud
>>216272888The only thing that actually jumpscared me this season so far is this fucking lil nigger
>>216273964The poojeeta?
>>2162718121>3>2>5A>4. I fucking hate 4. It's way too dark and long and it's filled with bloat and awful characters
90% of the dialogue this season consisted of people explaining plans to each other and using analogies to explain how their powers worked. It's fucking infuriating. What happened to the fun character moments?
>>216273751It's not toxic. The lab was just using the gear as a precaution>>216274807Maybe he was allowed to attend school during the day. Like a work release or something
>>216274582Vecna is Will's dad. The high school flashbacks will reveal this.
>>216275160Why is it hard to believe he was 34?
>>216271153Did he become a homosexual between season 4 and 5? His voice now sounds very feminine. His timbre was much better in the facility with the walled hag
>>216275021As if Ted would be an actor. As if he'd do ANY extracurriculars
>>216275021Are they really just including bits and pieces of the play's story in this final season wtf
>>216275462You could fill in the blanks, projecting retard
>>216275772By that logic you could do this with any show
>>216271153S1 had a special kind of magic that they just couldn't seem to replicate ever again. Perhaps it was a lightning in a bottle thing or they just didn't hire the same people for S2 and on.
>>216275768I think we might to see the entire play since in has information about his weakness that even Mindflayer wanted to kill her - Patty Newby ( Bob's adoptive sister).
>>216274492>DirectorWhat did Frank Darabont mean by this?
>>216275021I really hope this is just a minor thing they overlooked and not a major upcoming thing because there is no way Brenner would have let him go out of the lab. Also there's no way Henry would have given any shits about performing in a play.
>>216275909Yeah it was supposed to be an anthology but the cast got too popular.
>>216275917since in*since it
>>216271259Looked like Ghost n' Goblins.
>>216275909It's the small town, early 80s feel with simple monsters and creepy government dudes. Season 2 was pretty similar. Season 3 expanded the mythology too much and the monsters were too much and it leaned into the super neon mid 80s which isn't as cozy or as "Spielbergian". Season 4 is just a mess
>>216275939Unless there was involved a girl that he liked and even told het about his secret. The play he gets crazy after her suppose death. We later see her out of town.
We already have young Joyce and young Steve's dad. I think I've seen a young hopper photo too.
>>216275575Wot if ur mind wuz leik antenna
Young hopper most likely in his costume for the play.
Okay I was unaware of the play until now and after reading the plot it sounds fucking stupid and pretty much retcons everything we learned in S4.
>>216271620>Season 4 moves the plot.lol
>>216276017someone posted the playbill in a previous thread but I can't find it.it's like 5 or 6 people who are in the play that are the parents/older people in town stillTed Wheeler is the only name I remember besides Henry Creel/Vecna
>>216276017Someone has noticed that Steve's dad name is Danny Harrington.
>>216276106i also only found out about it yesterday, after watching s5, genuinely idiotic they put essential plot info into another media format without mentioning it at all in the new season. i had the same thing happen with the boys and gen v, there was a flashback scene from gen v in a the boys episode, i was like wtf is that, looked it up and found out about gen v. do they really expect viewers to refresh twitter every minute to find out about all this shit
>>216276017Young Joyce gives me Nancy vibesDoes Jonathan date his mom?
>>216275021>>216276180It's basically>Wheelers>Hopper>Eddie's dad>Henry's gf
>>216275976Very much agree with this. I still enjoy the show a lot but S1/2's brand of 80s pastiche and the much more somber tone was the best.
>>216275021Nearly every adult and parent who ever appeared in the show except Lonnie Byers
>>216275917man it would be mega ass if one entire episode is just a retelling of it
>>216276423Lonnie is in the "Dark shadow" play.
>>216276330>jonathan finds a portal out of the upside down>but it's also a portal in time and ends up in 1959>goes to high school to kill henry or whatever, joyce sees him and falls in love with him>cue bttf plot
>>216276440
I've never play DnD. Do you really write down every little step like>the enemy needs about 20 turns to die>everyone needs to write down stats of allies and enemy after every turn
>>216276459Hawkins High theater department must be fucking huge
>>216276017>>216276106>>216276361>>216275021>>216276423>it isn't an in universe play but an actual real world playare you fucking kidding me.
>>216276452I wouldn't be surprised if someone would go back in time to change the future that curtain people wouldn't meet. I'm reminded of Jonathan in the trailer saying to Nancy that they are always would be connected.
>>216276571Iirc the play was cancelled because of dead animals accident
>>216276593curtain*certain
>>216272096His power is immense
>>216272128Correct. It was coined with a specific meaning and "I don't like thing" does not make thing "filler".
>>216272539It's an elderly man with wrinkles, but that's not important right now.
>>216272770He wants to remake the world without humanity as it currently exists. Hence the weak children he can mold into whatever he wants.
>>216273164I just keep seeing SG-1.
>>216273611>misses the entire point of Robin's talk to Will in episode 4
>>216273732Can't hide her wide hips, thigh. They're wiggling all over the place.
>>216274395He's getting exactly what he wants through Vecna, Vecna just thinks it's all his own idea.
>>216274560I think the issue is the Mind Flayer is inhuman and they wanted a human foe that can talk.
>>216274807Not yet no
>>216274859They were literally trying to shoot Hopper and El last episode
>>216275160>>So I'm supposed to believe he is either 34 when eleven blew him upI mean, that's how old his actor was, so why not?
>>216275909It was new and fresh, the Spielberg and King mashup was still novel, the story was intriguing, the characters were endearing, and it was shot and acted in a much higher quality manner than streaming usually had at that stage, making it something of a "killer app" but for Netflix. It also has clear satisfying arcs with only a few threads left hanging at the end.
