Well, I guess that's it. Jancyfags on suicide watch.Previous: >>216880479
apologize
>>216882745Is that just the suit or does she have a decent ass?
>>216882745chicks got an ass like an onion
>>216882749The fact that the play isn't on Netflix is downright retarded.
>no one dies>vecna jobs constantly and gets a last minute "redemption"And to think people were hyping this season up as some Game of Thrones-tier dead pool where anything could happen.
>>216882749When this reveal happens next week it's going to come out of fucking nowhere for show viewers. And not be a reveal at all for anyone that knows about the play, so what the fuck.
>>216882710>BYLER = Dead>STANCY = Dead>JANCY = Dead>MILEVEN = probably dead (what with that many death flags flying round)The only relationships making it out of this season is the middle aged and interracial couples did one of the Duffers get divorced or something?
>>216882799To be fair, GOT's last season was also dogshit
>>216882799Any "hope" that anyone would die went out the window with the Wheeler parents surviving being brutalized by a demogorgon.
I can not take this show seriously after that hospital scene. Holy fuck. Is Lucas legitimately a fucking retard?
>>216882749>>216882773>>216882804i am just now finding out about this so that says a lot
>>216882710At this stage of the show they are not broken up. Maybe they do a fast forward to show it in the next ep.
>>216882810Mileven is still a thing, it's just uncertain if El is gonna survive because Kali is infiltrating her with the suicide pact bullshit.
>>216882810And people say the duffer bros don’t have the balls to kill the main cast
>>216882852They even spoiled the ending in their merchandise descriptions lmao.
not even the lego set is good
I think what annoys me about Jonathan and Nancy breaking up is that it reminds of the shitty love triangle from the legend of korra. Only thing it’s missing is Jonathan and Steve ending up together now.
>robin suggesting steve has a big cock
>>216882858Nah dude Millie wasn't seen during the filming of the epilogue graduation scenes with Mike and the rest, there's a leak of Hopper and Mike sat on a bench talking looking sad, Millie apparently filmed a final solo scene in rural Iceland near a waterfall with no one around. There's no way in hell she isn't getting trapped in the Upside Down at this point.
>he didn’t watch the playfake fan
What the fuck is the Indian bitch’s problem?
>mr. clarke is involvedThere's your sad death I guess.
>More emotion in one exchange than he's managed with Eleven and Will in years
>this is the emotional climax scene everyone was hyped for
What's in the boooox!?
Why did Derek wuss out? Did he forget Vecna is going to kill his family along with everyone else when he destroys the world anyway?
>>216882973Mike and Lucas are always the real best bros. Both their actors seem to get along very well
>>216882982Murray being there is like inviting in the mailman to your coming out
>>216882944She wants it finish once and for all even if it neabs everyone dies.
>both Jonathan and Steve end up girlfriendless and without future prospects or aspirationsDamn
>>216882985This guy
>>216882710Nancy ain't ending up with Steve either.She ends up alone and independent.
Qrd on Vecna’s plan? Am I stupidl for not understanding what’s going on half the time?
>>216883057Jonathan will be bachelor stoner roommates with that american indian guy. Steve will marry Holly.
>>216883057At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if Steve DOES nab Skeletor against all odds in the pre-epilogue timeskip.The writers know that Steve hard carries the show, so they'll probably toss him a bone, if not Skelly then definitely some other broad for the epilogue.
>>216882982
Imagine breaking up with your partner when you’re both post wall.
>>216883096Wants to destroy the world because bad childhood (but actually because he is being mind raped by the mind flair or whatever)
>>216883142I meant more like why he’s kidnapping children and shoving tubes down their throats. And why it’s taken him several years to do this.
Anyone else notice how the “2 characters talking” scenes seem to last for fucking ever?>Robyn & Girlfriend>Max & Holly>Eleven & 8>Nancy & JonathanThey’re really stretching for time this final season.
i feel l ike Noah Schnozz hijacked the script.
>>216883177Oh. He's a pedophile. He raped Will the same way in S2. Also the show is written on the fly.
>>216883177He intends to use them as amplifiers for his power, so he can rip open a hole straight from Dimension X to Earth, withour the Upside Down in the way.
>>216883193every dialogue is either an elaborate planning session, a heart-to-heart pep talk or a pop culture reference
>>216882919Last scene is her showing up in Iceland with the three waterfalls place
>>216883109the most unintentionally funny scene of this season
Are these writers retarded?What is this pacing?They backloaded SO MUCH SHIT for the finale that there's absolutely no chance for even half of that to be resolved in a satisfying manner, and yet it must for the ending to stick the landing.This shit is going to be fucking rushed. I low key expect GoT S8 reception when this is all over.
>>216883057Jonathan will be Steve's girlfriend.
What are some things that stand out as being super shitty in a sea of shittiness?>characters speak... like this... repeating things...pausing every 4 words>something is said through a walkie talkie and it's clear as day>"I don't understand!">MBB and Harbour have zero chemistry, they might as well have never met before>most episodes have had zero action and been dialogue heavy, but it's 90% exposition and the delivery is awful
>>216883315they had to do that in order to stretch peoples netflix subscriptions over 3 months
we could have had a spinoff show where the indian girls crew gets hunted down and killed
>>216883315You don’t get anon we needed 15 scenes of Robin falling over herself trying to speak.
>>216883193I've started skipping past anything that isn't central to the plot. I don't give a fuck about "Nancy and pothead relationship drama dialogue #22" or anything those retard dykes say to each other. Yeah no shit an episode can be an hour and 30 minutes long when 50% of it is completely pointless filler dialogue.
Do they show this in the GoT bar so everyone can basedface every five minutes
i fast forwarded through most Robin scenes desu
So for anyone wondering why they only manage to make a season of ST every 5 years
>>216883315It's shorter than the S4 finale and has 20x the things to tie up.They're fucking retarded. They should have the done Henry play lore dump when they went down that mineshaft at least.
>>216883298The black and Mike didnt like this. they remember Will the faggot watching them change in the locker-room
>>216883324For me it’s the rampant inconsistency of Vecna & the Demogorgans.When attacking redshirt army guys they’re agile as fuck and extremely deadly/unstoppable but when dealing with named characters they’re super slow, weak & retarded. Vecna in particular has been shown to be powerful enough to just kill all the characters but he just doesn’t for some reason.
>>216883336>hahaha I am so awkward and quirky lol i cant talk to people>i like dick>steve has a massive fucking cock
>>216883366You can tell he's narcissistic like most gay people are and felt he fucking owned that scene like and was gonna win Emmys and shit
>>216883407I am reminded of when Vecna killed all the soldiers, but then just lightly pushed Joyce away. The plot armour is obscene at this point.
>>216883298Does Eleven even know what gay people are?
>>216883448There's a minor, minor chance that this will actually be adressed.IIRC they were friendly with each other in the play, so maybe he went easy on her because he recognized her.
>guys im gay>also Israel has a right to defend itself and Palestine belongs to the Israeli people>also those hospitals were empty besides enemy combatants Anyone else find this scene strange?
I am so fucking sick of fucking KATE BUSH
>>216883501Maybe don't star wars, if you can't fight for shit.
>>216883499>a good portion of the plot and character moments are from a stage play that’s not even on NetflixWhat the fuck were they thinking?
>>216883366To be fair.They had a tight schedule in S1-3. It only collapsed with S4 due to Kung Flu shutting down Hollywood for like a year and a half. And with S5 due to SAG-AFTRA writer/actor strikes shutting down Hollywood for a year and a half.
>>216882810Holly will get a happy ending with me
>>216883505>trailer trash teenage midwestern american girl somehow becomes a fan of a British experimental pop album by an artist who didn't even tour outside of the UK because of her fear of flightsuhuh
>>216883448Joyce was a good person to Henry in school and then warned her about close people getting hurt. It was in the play, they mighg show it in the show.
>>216883528I'm positive they intend to turn the play into a movie post Season 5, because money.Hence why I think the relevant reveals will only be lightly skimmed in the finale.
>>216882875Kek this show has taken slop to a whole new level. How is anyone still watching?
>mentally ill queers are spamming every actor's IG saying it was bad using zoomer brainrot slangLOL
>>216882749Do you seriously think they're not going to address this in the show?
>>216882944Saar?
Wait what the fuck. Nancy and Jhonatan broke up? Why?
>>216883106nah I read quote last night from the duffers being like yeah nancy needs to be a strong independent woman or whatever
>>216882982this is their endgame assemble momentalso wouldnt it be a problem if a gay fell for someone straight?
>>216883628White on White couples are forbidden, Anon.What are you? are you an Ist?
>>216883628Because Skeletor is a strong independent woman who don't need no man, and Jonathan is a borderline non-character at this point.
Robin looks so fucking botched.
>>216883366This is straight up cringe. The Nancy and Jonathan breakup scene was so terribly written people didn't even know they were broken up LOL!
Byler is dead. And it's killed in one of the funniest scenes in the show and buried by shitty acting
>>216883324did I see it wrong or did a demogorgan get stopped by an invisible force field while jumping in to the elevator
I really dont get why they decide to break up just before they about to die. Doenst make any sense in fiction or reality. That is just straight bad writing from Cucker brothers. Shit like that will make your bond even stronger or is it a jew thing?
>>216883726Lucas kicked it
>>216883692They are listings thst they don't like and they appearantly don't like a lot about each other. I think it's in your face.
>>216883730They're white
>>216883726Yeah, I have to rewatch that, but maybe it was Will controlling them? Already forgot about this garbage
>>216883682>the hottest main cast women are fucking winona and cara
>>216883726Lucas kicked it.
>>216883726No, anon. The nigger just punted the demo away.
>a white bitch will say "i want to break up with you" just before you are about to dieTruly the most evil race
>>216883742>>216883770>>216883774lmao
>>216883742>Lucas kicked itLOL...LMAO even.
Bylerfags are STILL coping and actually think that painting from season 4 will be relevant or addressed at all. How do you even become this mentally ill?
>>216883748I mean I knew it was a breakup, but a lot of people took it as them being cute with each other and opposites attract and she didn't need an engagement ring because girlboss.
They couldnt help themselvesHolly HAD to have a crush on a black kid toolmao
Didn't you see how Nancy jumped on Jonathan when they realized they might survive? That was muscle memory, Jonathan used to carry fuck her like that. It's over for Stevie.
>>216883817It was a given>The only couples allowed are gay or interracial
>>216882982Kek the Fucking Indian chick is there too. Did they even officially meet and she got the invite?
I found out Nancy and Jhonatan broke up because an internet article. Didnt seem they did on the show kek
Are Jonathan and Nancy really a couple in real life? They have zero chemistry on the show.
Why does Hop want to hero himself so bad?
>>216883809I admit that scene was cute.Nancy's character is about breakin ecpections of social norms. What everyone expects after long time relatioship is marriage. Jonathan was thinking the same, relationship is stale, need a ring.
>>216883366Damn, and both those scenes sucked.
>>216883908Yeah for about a decade apparently.
>>216883901Yeah seemed like he was just doing the "who needs marriage as long as we love eachother"but... I guess they broke up? lmao>noooo you dont like the clash... we could never work..
>>216882982>>216883109So pissed that they decided to include every character named in what should have been at most a moment with Will's family and the party. Why does Murray or fucking Erica need to be there? >>216883195If he had, byler would be canon right now.
>>216883916He wants to die before Eleven dies, which he thinks is inevitable
>>216883834Thats standard for netflix originals, its really weird
>>216883742>can tank 9mm bullets like it's nothing>flies back five feet after getting kicked
>>216883366The actual acting in the coming out scene was well done and realistic, it's just everything else that sucked. If anything delayed filming the final season it was COVID and the writer and actor strikes.
Shes so aggressively ugly this season.
>>216883916He realised he's going to have to raise Jon and Will if he follows through on the Joyce thing
>>216883948Almost everyone on the internet took it that way.
>>216883983Veganism kills beauty
the holly actress got casting couched right? its the only reason I can think of as to why the character suddenly has such a massive role this season after being pretty much non-existent for the rest of the show
>>216883916Its method acting by Harbour. He wants to kill himself because hes still doing this fucking show after 10 years.
>>216883960Ah fair enough
>>216883916Wants to meet his dead daughtet that's why he isn't getting to be the one.So Steve is still on the chopping block to do it since it's his plan. I fon't remember where I've read that there was audition for Hopper's daughter and Duffers hired an intimacy coordinator.
>>216883980Schnapps acting in that wsan't badd its just the scene itself is ridiculous no one even in comes out in 2025 with a group announcement to 40 people he may as well have used the tanoy at the hospital and everyone just sits their staring at him while he's having ab breakdown
I laughed outloud when they showed Erica walking around drinking a juice box like she doesn't look 16 years old.
>>216883948The whole fucking point of the scene is them realizing that they're incompatable and unhappy. It's not about 'not liking The Clash'. Are you seriously that dense?
>>216883983I hate her outfits.
>>216883922>breakin ecpections*breaking expectations
>we need to break up Nancy and Jonathan so that Nancy can be a cool girlboss>How does this serve Jonathan's character? Uhhhh well I guess uhhhhWhy do they hate Jonathan so much?
Jesus fucking Christ Millie
>>216884051retardeverything they disagreed about was superficial and not anywhere close to being incompatible for a relationshipare you a kissless virgin? lmao
>>216884019Bro he made like $1million per episode
>>216883799Dragging out Will's feelings for four fucking seasons and making Mike/El's relationship this awful and unromantic seemed like an intentional writing choice, but now they understand the Duffers are just incompetent.
>>216884051The thing is it was done really bad because the general audience didnt get that. Why would someone break up with his partner when THEY ARE ABOUT TO FUCKING DIE???? Makes no sense
>>216884031>daughtet*daughter
>>216884074Jonathan has Will, they are brothers that can have soulful moments
>>216884041Yeah I agree if they were going for realism even despite the circumstances Will isn't coming out to the whole squad at the height of the AIDs crisis. It's strange that the Duffers want to be realistic about Will's love being unrequited but not about the period-typical homophobia, even among average people.
>>216884022>Is this faggot talkin about me?
Beamer!!!!!!!
>>216884133Watch episode 8, Mike confronts Will about what he assumes is his crush on Lucas.
Everything since S05E05 has been so boring to me. I'm really struggling to finish this. Currently about 20 mins into E06 and I really can't bring myself to care about what is going on even just a tiny bit. The hideous cave soundstage and the terrible Netflix-brand acting makes me feel like I am watching an episode of Wishbone for some reason.
>>216884133Funnily enough the Duffers revealed in an interview its finally dawned on Mike that Will wants to jump his bones
>>216882875>vecna vs mindflayer>capturing the scope of the final battleIt's going to be that big spider creature looking thing his child rape dungeon is in vs the smoke monster isn't it? A fucking kaiju fight.
>>216884089No, you faggots just project your mental illness on every single show>b-but the color coding, the music coding, it's all for nothing??? I went to film school after getting my degree in queer studies!I hope Trump sends all of these freaks to die for Israel
I dont know if its the writing of MBB acting but Eleven feels like a side character this season whose not even that invested in the plot.Will has effectively replaced her in the story.
>a kid coming out as gay is the emotional climax of the showThis honestly feels 10 years out of date
On E6 right now, NOTHING is happening, every scene is characters bickering over random bullshit
>>216884155If this is the absolute empty void in between universes, then what is that light source?
>>216882810White couples are banned in Netflix shows
>character has a eureka moment and somehow perfectly figures out some super elaborate plot device to move us to the next sceneThis happens like 4 times in the span of these 3 episodes, the Duffers are fucking hacks.
>>216884197Coudn't he be a cool fag at least? Why does he cry like a bitch, he was fucking powers
>>216884212Don't even think about it remotely scientifically.
>>216884180Byler baited until the very end, when their fujo bucks and movie tickets were secured. Feels bad. >>216884180I have flat feet, fortunately.
What the fuck were Sadie's directions for that scene?
>>216884223Don't forget>they explain it using props
Anyone else skipped any scene where the pajeeta was involved?
Holly can’t act for shit, how has this kid been granted the frontline of this final fucking season. Hopper and steve reduced to background characters, they really couldn’t write a fucking finale with the original cast they already had? I’ve seen the same emotional beats a million times already in these episodes.
>>216884257I didn't, she's hot.
>>216883315The difference is game of thrones actually killed characters There not gonna kill any characters
>>216884252she's trying to outshine nelly (our girl) but it's not gonna work
>>216884252I find Sadie pretty attractive IRL but wouldn't touch her with how they make her look in the show.
>>216884280>when mike and nancys parents even have plot armor
>>216884197>This honestly feels 10 years out of dateIt actually does feel incredibly dated because at no point in that whole 30 minute monologue does he actually say the words "I'm gay". Its like some sort of family friendly show in the early 2000s introducing a new gay side character who can't kiss other men or say he likes dick due to network restrictions
>>216884274maybe its just because of how transactional and plot oriented every other scene is but I like Holly's scenes, everything else is just constant exposition
>>216884212This void allows light to travel throught it.
>>216884279>I didn't, she's hot....The fuck are you into? She looks like a 16 year old Indian boy now.
>>216884274In a series that already has way too many characters with none of them being killed off they just add in more characters to steal screen time from the core group. Like you are paying them all this Fucking money and keep taking the camera away from them!
>>216884279ok Sukhdeep Singh but your people are a blight upon the world
>>216884257You know it that she is going to drag Eleven to her death. You feel that she is antagonistic towards everyone.
>>216884279>I didn't, she's hot.Bruh.
>>216884330Travel from where? Dimension X is up, Earth is down, illumination comes from the right.It's hackery, pure and simple.
>>216884302And only the mother is allowed to be badassThey don't give a shit about the white father
>The weird, sensitive kid that liked fantasy and rainbows, had an abusive father and an equally weird pothead brother, was raised by a lenient and incompetent mother that made him into an easy target for bullying and got kidnapped and (kinda) groomed turned out ot be gayI thought stereotypes were bad.
>>216884311>Its like some sort of family friendly show in the early 2000s introducing a new gay side The fuck, what early 2000s show dedicated 10 fucking minutes to a coming out scene in the climax of the show
>>216884195It's because she's a straight white womanLesbian women are much more important to the plot
>>216884374Quite literally nothing about the wormhole makes any scientific sense, and light is where you are drawing an issue on?
I'm at season 4 episode 2 should I keep watching Hopper being alive is so retarded
the grey goo room also looks really cheap and like something out of an early cronenberg movie
>>216884195The whole original core group outside of Will are all side characters this season.
>>216884280Not every series needs to be fucking GoT. Killing half the cast every season to be edgy.There's no need to arbirarily whack characters, there were a ton a successful series where characters didn't die unless the actor needed out for some reason.The trick to NOT introduce some many secondary characters that core cast ends up taking a back seat.
Im just calling it now because I very much doubt the finale was right this ship.Season rankings1>4>2>3>5
>>216884431yes for the same reason you watch a car crash
Am I the only one that didn't pick up that the "broke up"? Seemed like they aired their grievances and were happy to get them off their chest.
>world is about to end>spend 10 minutes on Will telling everyone he's gay and cryingWhat the FUCK is wrong with these writers?
>>216884195I think she's supposed to be autistic because she grew up in a lab so she is intentionally acting stiff and robotic.
It is funny to me how much people hyped the writers up to be these masters of depicting the gay experience when the best they could manage was a lesbian couple getting together off screen and unrequited love spanning multiple seasons only to end in a blank Finn Wolfhard expression.
>>216884453Nope, a lot of people didn't realize that was supposed to be a break up scene. Enough even that the Duffers had to confirm it in an interview.
>>216884197>10 years out of dateIs 30 years early for the show
Why does every decent show made in the last few years (besides Saul) have to crash and burn at the finale?
>>216884431Just skip the Russia and Cali stuff. You'll be done in no time. All you need to know is Eleven gets her powers back, Hopper survives.
>>216884478>besides SaulEh, it didn't crash and burn. But I feel like him confessing at the end was forced, Jimmy was too far gone by that point to come clean like that.
>>216883407Oooh, I figured this one out when Lucas kicked the demo twenty feet while holding Max. It's vagina power. The demos are witchkings, vecna gave them the same magic shield as the ringwraiths, where they're invincible unless the attacker has a vagina. It checks out, see, cuz, lucas can't do shit until he's holding max, and hopper could only kill them because dave harbour is a pussy!
>>216884468>intentionally acting stiff and robotic.She had no issue emoting in the previous seasons.Harsh reality is, bitch overdid on botox and filler injections and can barely move her face anymore.
>>216884501That's what I'm saying. Saul is the exception, the finale waa good.
>>216884469I mean even for netflix, they can't turn gay Mike who was straight for 4 seasons
>>216884478succession didn't tomchads fucking won
Fucking dogshit ships are so trash this season I ironically like Lumax more than anything else
>just casually murders people
>>216884536The finale was awful and killed all discussion of the show. I'm confused how you are thinking the opposite. There were weekly watch threads while the show was airing. The last season was a joke. Way too much filler and the ending with Saul was bullshit.
>>216883109
>>216884632You’re an idiot
>>216884252I don't know, but this was honestly the first time she's ever looked pretty to me.A real "this better not awaken anything in me" moment.
Show should have ended with season 3. Just tweak the Russian epilogue and have Hop actually die and it's the perfect ending
I have the same feeling today as I had during the last (Cavill) season of The Witcher: which is that it got so bad I literally lost interest and stopped watching it. Do you realize how badly a show has to fuck up to make a viewer (who has already invested seasons and years of viewing) bail midway through the FINAL season? That’s where I’m at.Literally the ONLY well-written and/or interesting things (IMO) in these new episodes are:- The Dustin & Steve scenes- The Holly & Max scenes- The Holly & Vecna scenes- The reveal of Dustin figuring out the wormhole thing was cool too, I thought. But literally everything else is now trash.- Hopper and El scenes are trash- El and Kali scenes are poorly acted and dumb- El in general has become a 4th tier character in her own show- Jancy scene was confusing and unnecessary - Erika and Murray comedic relief scenes were dumb.- Anytime Mike is onscreen it’s terrible- I’ve been fast-forwarding thru Robin and Nurse scenes for 2 seasons already.I mean, literally, they’ve now (apparently?) setup Will’s gayness as THE major plot point in the finale. I assume it will hinge on Vecna thinking he can use Will’s “secrets” to manipulate him, only to discover that Will has already told everyone. And Vecna will, what, be like, “Noooo! If they know you’re gay, how can I control you?! Arrgghhh!” That’s what they’ve setup to happen. And if it does, holy shit what cringe writing. And if it doesn’t (eg, if the gay thing never comes up again and Vecna doesn’t try to “use it” against Will), then WTF was the point of introducing it?I thought I was watching a fun YA sci-fi show where the Goonies find a Montauk Experiment escapee and hijinks ensue to save the world. Instead, I’ve apparently been watching an LGBT propaganda drama for the Bravo Network that bait-and-switched its initial premise in favor of pushing “The Message.”In short, I’m out. lmao
>>216884557If their intention was to never make Mike return Will's feelings they should have ended his crush arc after 4 instead of dragging it out for another two years both in universe and out. They shouldn't have focused only on Will's love for Mike when depicting his memories this season and all the shit about knowing when someone wants to date you, only to turn around the next episode and claim Will's always known Mike won't return his feelings. Their friendship has always felt pretty gay to me, and Mike had moments in 4 that felt pretty flirtatious when compared to his lack of chemistry with El. That plus his inability to say he loves her for multiple seasons only to have an unbelievably awkward love confession because of Will's feelings.
>>216884279grim
>>2168844411>3>2>4>5
>>216884657lost it at Epstein
>>216884367Her haircut is bad but her body is very attractive.
>>216884469I genuinely don't get what the hell they were going for>s4 in van Will sadly realises Mike is straight and its not happening>s5 Will hits on Mike because he now thinks he's got a chance and Eleven is stuck in hell>s5 later "yeah I'm over it now bro"
I have Kate Bush fatigue bros
>>216882749It's pretty fucking absurd shit moves so slowly that in vol 2 they didn't cover the Vecna/MF backstory. Like you need to shove that into a 2 hour finale along with everything else? I swear if I had a shot of vodka every time Will and Joyce had some emotional one to one in vol 2 I'd be decently drunk
>>216884701Season 2 is an even better ending.>Gate is closed permanently>Hopper resolves his parenting hangups and gets new daughter.>11 can have a normal life>Mileven sails>Jancy sails>Steve moves on without being mired in a multi-season love triangle.>Pajeeta spin-off hook for their plannet anthologyI'm willing to bet money that they intended to close the Hawkins storyline with S2 and start a Poo spin-off, but the reception killed the plans and forced them to double down on Hawkins cast. Before S3 all the major story threads outside the jeet and MK.Ultra crap were closed. S3 is where shit starts crumbling. with the story veering towards self-parody and characters becoming increasingly caricaturized.
>>216884768That's the thing, it's been two fucking days since Will had that conversation with Robin about "how obvious" it is when someone has feelings for you, having Will look down in that knowing way like he's re-contextualizing some stuff, and talk about a "snowball rolling down a hill until it becomes an avalanche" ... to go to "Mike I know you ain't gay but I loved you". It is bad writing.
Vicki is so beautiful. God I wish I was Robin.
>>216884814Ok this one got me. I think we need more people to witness Will come out.
>>216884722Nah Mike never had romantic with Will. Ever. He's the biggest miss me with that gay shit character
>>216884345cos they're shitty actors other than Winona
>>216884856Yeah I can see that. I just love season 3. Love the summer vibes
>>216884883Soon as this aired I knew it would be meme’d to oblivion. And rightly so.
>>216884856They originally wanted to do anthology approach with new characters every season but season 1 just blew up too much. So yeah they obviously tried to backdoor anthology into season 2 but nobody was buying that bullshit.
>>216883548They've made two jokes about this in the show with via Holly telling Max she doesn't know who the fuck Kate Bush is lmao. But also random as people you meet irl will be Kate Bush fans, literally two of the biggest Kate Bush fans I've met have been a metal head and some straight up street dude whose favorite rapper is Gucci Mane.
>>216884856Yeah season 2 is the perfect ending. Everything else is pure fanfiction
You know if you weren't paying attention you could probably just come to the conclusion he's a raging incel rather than gay
This season has been such a mess that I think it will butcher the entire show's reputation aside from maybe the first season. Even back in 2016 I thought the series should be an anthology, but Jesus Christ what a disaster.
Finn's hair is so kino this season
>Anon I need you to do me a favor...
>>216883324>let me demonstrate what I'm saying by showcasing it with these objects
>>216884947They are going to piss off the gays and straights with this one.
>upside down version of whatever the fuck that yellow rock planet is has no gravity and immediately falls from the surface towards the upside down earth>upside down earth does have normal gravityWhy tho.
>>216884657that fellow in the center looks like a man trying to figure out how to build a nest
>>216883060But how? Is this explained in the play?
>>216884947I think at one point the idea was that if they continued the plot from season 1, it would pickup decades later with the characters coming back to Hawkins. Like the Loser's Club does in It. That would have been interesting to see.
>>216884941That's because he was. lol.Will being a fag was purely fanon until S4 where they actually incorporated it into the story.Prior to that you could very easily write it off as him being called a faggot by his bullies and deadbeat dad because he was a sensitive nerd whoo's maybe on the spectrum.
>>216885011Are you genuinely stupid? Will being gay was a thing even in the Montauk pitch bible.
>>216884947after this is done the fandom will only acknowledge the first, second, and third seasonsminus episode 7 from season 2 (the infamous lost sister episode)
>>216884971I genuinely had to pause and go get a beer when Steve brought the slinky out
>needs 13 vessels>yaps about light and darkness>wants to merge worlds or something>gets a last minute "redemption" so vecna is just xehanort huh?
>Lucas doesn't understand the difference between a Wizard and a Sorcerer Did the writers just forgot he was a DnD nerd?
>>216884971I understand better that way am I dumb?
>>216884814Oh my god, love it!!!!! Everyone us here.
>>216885074you're the target audience
>>216884871is she Molly Ringwald's daughter?
>>216885065He stopped playing when he started banging Max and hoopin'.
>>216882710That Jancy breakup was the gayest shit I’ve ever seen. So they break up because… they just had to? It literally made no sene to me other than “it’s just too haaaard, bro!!” Either way I didn’t give a fuck and there are more pressing matters like:1. Wtf is up with Max’s 30 minute exposition? How did they think recapping the whole thing was a good idea? Some of the worst writing I’ve ever seen and it was borderline insulting.2. Why did we dedicate so much time to Holly? Her whole arc was literally for nothing.3. Take a shot every time a character said “dark magic” or “sci-fi”. Holy fucking normies and their utter lack of subtlety.4. What in the fuck is Vecna’s endgame? So there is no Mindflayer? A fucking wormhole? There were so many convoluted plot twisterinos that we’re literally back in square one of not knowing what the hell Vecna wants. So this whole season has been fo nothing. It was the lamest quasi-retcon and we have only one episode to tie it all up.I like dumb fun TV as much as the next guy but this garbage is reaching S3 levels of cringe. I can’t have fun if I’m taken out of it every couple of minutes when a character drops a quip or an aha! moment that magically lays out the plot for the next 15 minutes.
>villain is evil because...hes uhhh like....umm..possessed maybe? or no way hes uhhhh....whatever go watch the stage play why do we need to explain our villains motivations in the show
>>216882973Mrs. Wheeler just awkwardly standing there while everyone is having their happy together moment after somehow saving the day was so ass bro.
>>216885090should I be able to understand wormholes through 15 seconds of exposition?
>>216885035It’s barely a factor in the show until season 4, maybe one line of dialogue implies it and that’s it and even in season 4 only a couple moments are dedicated to it
>>216884999Philladelphia Experiment rammed USS. Eldridge into he Abyss. Brenners dad was the captain and the only survivor. He didn't survive long tho becasxue in addition to his injuries, exposure to the alternate universe changed him on a bilogical level and transfusions didn't work. He spilled to his son on his deathbed.Martin "Papa" Brenner was actually as brillaint theoretical physicist, and hsi goal was always to reopen the gate and validate his father. He essentially co-opted the MK.Ultra shit for his interdimensional antics.The dude in the cave was Soviet spy that took off with his experimental portal tech.Henry gets zapped into the Abyss/Dimension X where Mind Flayer hardcore diddles him for 12 hours straight before ejecting him back to earth with no memory of the event. It's slowly pushes his buttons to make him it's unknowing agent on earth.The spyglass belonged to Henry, and he dropped it in the cave. Brenner uses it to track Creels to hawkins becasue its signed.
>>216882810Robin/Vickie still going strong.
>>216884657Fucking kek.
>>216884609>somehow doesn’t get shot when 6 military dudes have her in their sights
>>216885145>when a show has platform exclusive dlc that is story critical
>>216883978you seen how high a black man can jumpthey got legs
>>216885145Holly sees Vecna's true form and decides he must be evil because he is ugly? Pretty lookist if you ask me.
>>216885166>Philladelphia Experiment rammed USS. Eldridge into he Abyss.wut
>>216884233Because he has been a huge fucking pussy the entire series, one badass scene can't suddenly make him badass.
How do these Fucking kids know what a Sorcerer is? The 3rd edition of D&D isn't even Fucking close to being introduced yet!
>>216884750Literally me. I liked S3’s summer blockbuster vibe.
>>216882996He’s being set up to sacrifice himself in the finale.He’ll be the new fan favorite character that dies this season.
>>216882982>“And the strangest thing… is that you can have pride parades in Tel Aviv but not Gaza yet people are still anti-Zionist” Mwow very on-the-nose writing there Netflix
>>216883809i just thought they were saying unproposal and stuff because they ran out of time and are going to die so they can't actually get married
Jonathan should have been killed offscreen when his actor got arrested for drugs.
>>216885206Just google a synopsis, it's that convoluted.>tl;dr Mind Flayer is the big baddie, and Henry is a brainwashed dindu gaslit into becoming wannabe joker.
>>216883799Its fine I've moved on to Foah to compensate now
>>216885229>When Murray started laughing and cheering while spitting on pictures of dead Palestinian children What was Netflix trying to say here?
>>216884257why is she so short?her standing up to hop staring at his belly button is fucking hilarious
>>216885126>So they break up because… they just had to?They broke up because they were clearly drifting apart and had been doing so for awhile. Relationship was just awkward, built on lies, trauma from all the freaky shit happening, and walking on egg shells around each other. Nancy was obviously not into it, too busy being the smartest woman in America and a crack shot with a rifle to boot. > Wtf is up with Max’s 30 minute expositionNetflix makes their writers do this for zoomers and boomers who are addicted to their phones so they don't have to stop scrolling insta and tiktok>Why did we dedicate so much time to Holly? Her whole arc was literally for nothing.yeah it's stupid>What in the fuck is Vecna’s endgame? He wants to reshape the world in his image because the current one sucks
>>21688298211 looks like the giant from the Last of Us here
>>216885257In real D&D is the Mind Flayer stronger than Vecna?
>they both say i love you>ends in multiple embracesAlright are these writers permavirgins or something what the fuck kind of breakup is that?
>>216883817Based Holly imo
>>216885206>a famous WWII urban legend about the U.S. Navy making the USS Eldridge invisible to radar and even teleporting it in 1943, involving strange lights, crew madness, and physical harm>official records and scientific understanding debunk it as a hoax, likely stemming from routine degaussing tests and later science fiction stories and conspiracy theories. The tale grew through books and films, adding elements of time travel and fusion with the ship, though the Navy has no records, and the Eldridge's logs show it was elsewhere.
>>216885166>>216885180Absolutely insane to me that so much of the background is explained in the play. They'll probably reveal a lot of it in the finale, but people who know about the play already having a very different experience while watching the show.I only started watching Stranger Things last summer so it's not that big of a deal to me, but if I had been following the show for almost a decade and found out about this I would be pissed.
is chad wheeler still in the hospital?
>>216884016No dickless.It’s because the heart of this show is about kids. And kids movies from the 1980s.The other kids like El and Mike are older teens now.So all of the soul of the show this season goes to Holly and Derek
It’s glorious watching this shit crash and burn
What do we think is the significance of Millie filming in Iceland?
>>216884918looking back that would have been much better. instead of having 30yr olds play kids they could just refresh the cast every season and then bring back the original kids as adults in a later seasons
Isn't the Upside-Down connected to Russia? That's how Hop went there and back, right? How is that possible if it is centralized entirely over Hawkins?
>>216885264I hope Finn never works again and spends his days living in a dark, damp cave without food or sunlight or kindness.
>>216885355anything from a dream-wish scenario to her abandoning everyone and going off to live alone where she can't be found
>>216885355If it actually happened. 11 gets stuck in the Upside Down and goes to a waterfall like her and Mike talked about. He meanwhile will be fucking some girl in college
>>216884918That is insane to think considering how fanservice-driven this show has become.
>>216883545Excuse me, you're not a nigger that she has a TOTAL crush on, chuddie
>>216885378what time do you close?
>>216884501I think the confession was cool, desu. It’s the one thing Jimmy had in his power to redeem himself somewhat. My critiques of BCS S6 are more than a few but it’s not Jimmy’s confession. What did annoy me about the confession is how it was framed as something that came about because he didn’t want Kim to be disappointed in him. So in the end it was for some messed up broad instead of him genuinely taking accountability for his actions.
>another elaborate planning scene
>>216885095no just a random actress who they deep faked to look more like molly
>>216885300mind flayers are a species not an individual but sure any average illithid could take vecna 1v1, the demogorgan on the other hand is an individual a demon prince of the abyssal plane, incredibly powerful more powerful then most dragons if you want to scale this shit, also seeing as he comes from the plane of fire chaos and evil he is not only immune to fire he is healed by it
>>216884597Built for Lumax
>>216885358JESUS CHRISTI though Skeletor looked bad in the latest season, but if that's what she looks IRL, when looksmaxx'd for an official function - the set crew hanling her wardrobe and makeup for the show deserve a gigantic looking raise for making her look even remotely healthy'ish and human
>>216885322I only watch the show and talk about it when the season airs. I was very fucking confused when I saw people going "OMG ITS THE CAVE" and "OMG THE SPYGLASS ITS *THE* SPYGLASS" when vol 1 came out last month, and I was wondering wtf was happening.I then learnt about the play existing, let alone the massive story relevance of it after that.
>>216885355Soundtrack tracksShe is either stuck in her created world in the upside down or she fakes her death and goes around the world.
>>216884671WTF
>>216885380You can have whatever this shipname is then... Naleb?
>>216885378Oh, Argile has changed.
>>216885451>"no, vecna, YOU are the curse!">and then vecna was human again
>literally everyone hates the show now even redditors and gay twitter peopleWhat the fuck went so wrong
>>216885485Duffer brothers can't write for shit anymore apparently, the actors don't want to be there and the series should have ended years ago.
>>216885430why do you think shes always in a loose sweater? she'd fall between the gap in a floor board if she wasn't
>>216885355El survives but leaves because the military will always chase her for her blood. She lives remotely in Iceland by waterfalls. But every now and then she uses her mind powers to check up on Mike and the rest.Mike ends the series sad and alone.
>>216885485Too much blueballing.They backloaded too much shit for the finale instead of pacing shit properly, and now even the normies can smell a trainwreck inbound.All they had to do was spam fanservice, and deliver pay off on shit and the normie would love it.
>>216885475I want Noah to get with a guy who knows what he wants and is packing 7" or more-- we know he's a size queen.
>>216885483There is track "He is still human"
>>216885419>any average illithid could take vecna 1v1
>>216885485A lot of stranger things hype is fake and gay marketing by Netflix. A large portion of the fanbase agrees the show dipped hard in quality after S1 with many shocked the show even continued after how bad S3 was.While may consider S4 a later series renaissance the fact remains the show has never truly been beloved outside of S1.
>>216885559They literally talked about this in Ep 8. Did you even watch?
>>216885485Yeah it's genuinely bad. Rushed, careless writing. Poor directing. They waited too long to finish this and the children are about to become grand parents. They all aged terribly, they're putting no effort into acting. It's almost as bad as the final season of Game of Thrones
>>216885264zestfest
>>216885358
>>216885567yea, how could you possibly disagree?
>>216885485It’s not good. Every anon in this thread immediately picked apart the plotholes and bad writing because it’s so obvious. It’s never been this bad before
>>216885331God damn Ted is a silver fox wtf
>>216885331Probably. The military is there so he's good.
>>216884891>other than WinonaShe has literally a single facial expression throughout the show wtf are you talking about? And half the time she looks high on dope. There's like two good actors in the cast and those are the redhead and Steve.
>>216885621They tried to make her look more like a dyke which means she has to be uglier
>>216885358Barb looks like two fridges in a pair of gian pants. Thank fuck she died in season 1.
>>216885573The show might have been at its highest critical reception during season 1, but every season since has gone up in ratings and it exploded particularly after 4.
>>216885331So lame that they didn’t give him a redemption arc. He could have easily been a Clutch Comeback Chad but instead he’s forgotten in the hospital and none of his kids seem to give a fuck about him
>about 7 hours of s5 so far>feels like maybe an hour or so of plot progression has happenedI swear to fucking god if we get another group planning scene or explaining a plan with props scene.
>>216885485Lots of contrarianism. Remember, the internet isn't fucking real.
>>216885485I'm genuinely wondering if they didn't just AI the scripts
WE ARE 40 YEARS OLD PLANOOMERS!
>>216885621That's just how white women age.
What happened with the annoying fat fuck kid?
>>216885666Season 4 was overblown and had tons of filler but at least the conflict with Vecna had real weight to it. They were unraveling a mystery of who this guy is and the final episode was like a blockbuster film. Now we get to season 5 and essentially the final episode here is what the first episode should’ve been, Vecna merging the worlds together because that was what we assumed was happening at the end of season 4. They blew their load too early and now there’s no tension or intrigue
How long is the finale? I don't see how they resolve all of this stuff and explain the lore of the Upside Down to its fullest and Henry's background if it isn't Avatar length
>>216885721Look at their faces. it looks like they have a plan.
>ancient looking linda hamiliton man handling that tall special forces dudeLmao okay.
>>2168857382 hours 8 minutes. Though 40 minutes of that is the post ending where are they now epilogue in 1991
>>216885419This is so bad of a take I'm not even sure if you are trolling:>Mind Flayer: (CR 7, 71 HP, AC 15, +7 to hit, psionic abilities, spellcasting up to 5th level).>Mind Blast (60-ft cone, 4d8+4 psychic damage, DC 15 Int save or stunned)>Tentacles (grapple and brain extraction)>Levitate (at-will)>Vecna: (CR 26, 272 HP, AC 18, +12 to hit, spellcasting up to 9th level).>High spell save DC (22)>Legendary actions>Counterspell (at-will)>Rotting Touch (13d8 necrotic damage)Vecna will probably win initiative and could cast disintegrate, Power Word Kill, use Rotting touch, he has a ton of different OHKO abilities.
>>216884871She has a terrible hairline
>>216883908The pairings are so fucked up, not talking about shipping shit but in general Finn has great chemistry with Caleb, Saddle, Joe and Gaten, yet most of his scenes are with Noah and Millie.Habour has not that much of a chemistry with Millie yet their characters are tied from the hip.Nancy actress and Jonathan actor DO have chemistry but the material is not good for it, Meanwhile skelly also has chemistry with Joe as well, and since the material is better it ends up looking weird since you’d expect the irl complete chemistry-mog but it doesn’t Joe and Maya have probably the most chemistry of the whole show yet their characters are forced to be friends because Maya made Robin gayGaten is put in groups where the only character he can shine with is Steve.IMO the worst is Noah, he pretty much just drags Down every character they pair him with, he should have chemistry with Millie but he performs bad
>>216885772Why is it so short?
>>216883980>The actual acting in the coming out scene was well done and realisticNot watching the show, did anyone disown him afterwards?0% chance all your dude friends would keep hanging out with you after this shit
They put relativistic physics in my gay autistic paranormal show
>>216885752>when the fucking 5ft tall indian teenager suffering from severe blood loss just levels a fully grown soldier
>>216885772>henry getting flayed, mindflayer reveal, vecna vs mindflayer, destroying the wormhole, a bunch of character stuff, ect all in 1hr 20 minutesJesus why did they do it like this.
>>216885752There's been a lot of ridiculous girl power moments? 8 or Kali or whatever her name is body checking grown men when she's like five feet tall even and weights 100 pounds. Nancy banging it out with trained U.S. military. So stupid.
>>216885627> Mindflayer Challenge Rating: 7> Vecna the Archlich Challenge Rating: 26
>>216885796I mean they could have cut down on so much shit this season and made it work. I know its going to offend the pedos but fuck it Holly doesn't need to take up more screentime than the established cast.
>>216885827There just wasn't time for plot related moments when we needed 5 Joyce and Will moments and 10 different scenes of Robin stumbling over herself trying to speak.Something had to hit the cutting room floor and it was just useless shit like exploring our main villain.
Will's coming out scenemy god this is the sappiest and most poorly acted shit ever
>>216885380Yeah tied up and underdressed in my basement
>Holly is a QoS
>>216885784you fucking idiot that anon was asking about show Vecna not real Vecna obviously real Vecna would wipe the floor with an illithid, I thought you were being retarded and I was right. Vecna is a legendary archmage and a demilich in d&d. Show venca is a little pussy with some physic powers and basic bitch regeneration. How did you not get that?
>>216885876Quite bizarre when you think about it. A background character in the previous seasons who had almost no screen time is now the most prominent character in the last season.
>>216885485I think it's everything the series has struggled with since season 2 coming home to roost, on top of season 4 not really leaving the story in an interesting position despite the cliffhanger. A good example of this is the (nonexistent) dynamic between Vecna and Eleven that leaves Eleven utterly irrelevant for the better part of 7 episodes. I actually don't mind the story focusing on Will since he's a more interesting foil for Vecna anyway, but 5 seasons in and all we've been given to prop it up is Will's coming out party that could at best be described as Degrassi-tier.
>>216885897Hey everybody we're about to all go die but before that I'm gay. Slay, Queen shit.
>>216885887Woah you forgot, we need multiple planning scenes, and using props to help explain while then bickering over the prop selection.Also we need to show the map again.
>>216885897And they spent 12 hours on that shit You just know everyone there was gassing him up and told him he killed it lol
>>216885869the show vecna vs a mindflayer, jfc
>>216885910Where the hell are you guys getting the clip where it's stated that she likes Josh (mini-Lucas)? I can't find it.
>>216885264Is this AI sloppa? I’m so out of touch I can’t tell anymore
>>216885897>>216885935Needed more pasta sauce.https://youtu.be/qMroPFkpnPM?si=npZqzUweouLc-8IH
This show really makes me feel gaslighted>Max talking about the wheelers and How Holly is just like Mike>El and Will obsessed with Mike>Pajeet knowing who he is >the heart, the leaderMeanwhile Mike is just there most of the time.Btw Finn is actually a Good actor, he is great when he is with Caleb and was great in IT, the problem is that all his scenes are with charisma voids
>>216885952>24 hours in total on a scene that is 0 vfx and just 7 minutes runtimeJesus fucking Christ what the hell. No wonder the budget is ridiculous for seemingly no reason.
>>216885979Nah just some magazine shoot thats coming out
>>216885955The scene where Vecna is explaining to the kids how Max brainwashed Holly
>>216886012I had my suspicions because Finn’s hair looks longer the he currently is and I’ve never seen that hairdo on Caleb
>>216886000>the problem is that all his scenes are with charisma voidsNancy is one of the better actors in the show though and he's shit with her too though. My working theory is he's only good at acting with people he thinks are friends. Also you guys need to stop bringing IT up it was nearly a decade ago everyone in ST was a better actor back then.
>>216885728Vecna literally bitchslapped him into obedience. Seriously.They seem to be setting up his sacrifice in the finale to save Holly because he was too scared to disobey Vecna in Volume 2 after he threatened him.
>>216885926>>216885953>In real D&D is the Mind Flayer stronger than Vecna?Why would you take that to think he was asking about show Vecna?
>>216886050>https://es.hollywoodreporter.com/entre-bicicletas-monstruos-y-duelo-los-duffer-cierran-el-circulo-de-stranger-things/Could have been shot months ago
>>216886000its literally tell and dont show, it feels like mike hasnt been important for several seasons
>>216886027Ah, I forgot about that.
>>216885955
>>216886027damn you're rightlmao they really just felt the need to throw that in there for no reason
>>216886085He hasn’t really been relevant season 2. After that he’s just been “Eleven’s boyfriend who stands around”
>>216886004That's literally a whole day filming one scene and then coming back for reshoots.
Oh yeah these two are meant to be best friends and Will got a better reunion with her than El did. There are so many weird choices going on in this season
>>216886102So that's why the Hollypedos stopped posting.
Did the kids all get paid the same in S1? Because Will is barely in the show until S2.
>>216886102Is that the librarians daughter?
>>216886004I honestly thought they were gonna have a big action climax where Vecna is choking Will and he has to admit he’s gay because Vecna wants to humiliate him but Will learns he’s not afraid of admitting it. My mind went to the most capeshit idea possible not realizing that this is a Netflix show: it’s only natural that instead Will literally preached to an audience about faggotry
>>216886138I feel like they keep shoehorning Will into everything. Like why the fuck would Max and Will, who have 0 dialogue with each other before these episodes be pushed to the forefront? We don't even see Max's own fucking MOTHER .. but we get Will and Max scenes?
>>216886138We don’t have time for characterization, there’s another exposition scene we gotta get to. Chop chop
>>216886144Probably not he wasn't a main then. But their pay only really started ramping up from s2 onwards when he was a main and they all group negotiated so he probably only lost out on about $10k.
>>216886144*he’s barely in the show until season 5
>>216886059because he had no idea what a mindflayer was it seemed obvious, he asked>would The Mindflayer beat Vecnaso he obviously doesn't know what illithid are. Why would you ever think I was suggesting a basic bitch mindflayer could take down Vecna?You replied before thinking obviously if I know what a illithid is and explained what The Demogorgan is I would know who Vecna is.
>>216886139DufferGODS btfoing the pedos by unprompted niggered.com
>>216882982>no Erica there to come out with a chuckle and a fag comment Smart move
>>216886230Why would he know who Vecna was either? As far as we know he probably also thinks they are each unique D&D characters.
What the hell happened to Argyle
>>216886085There hasn't been any room for him to matter once the show grew beyond a Goonies/Stand By Me pastiche. It doesn't make sense for Mike to be the leader when a grown military veteran is around, and he has no particular connection to the villains. The show outgrew its own premise, which has been the source of a lot of its issues.
>>216886262This last episode was the first time he went to the upside down too lmao.
>>216886102Derekbros....
>>216886318We are so getting dipshit derek getting a mocking blow against Vecna, it’s going to be peak
>>216886255because thats what the name of the villain in stranger things is, are you dumb or being intentionally obtuse? currently the theory in the show is that the "mind flayer" a big smoke monster thing, is controlling "vecna" a psychically gifted human with a serious skin condition, so to go all the way back, es an average basic d&d mind flayer would absolutely be able to 1v1 show vecna.
>>216886262>and he has no particular connection to the villainsIts the same problem Lucas has both he and Mike have hit the issue their girlfriends are more important to the plot than they are. At least Dustin got Steve and Will got bone crushing powers I guess.
Rewatching S1. It's fucking wild how none of the new upside down lore from S5 can possibly fit.
>>216886345
>>216886144Millie got paid the most since she’s got the (((best agent)))Followed by Finn, Caleb and DustinWill and Max got less I think until season 4
>>216886256what business is it of yours what happened to him, friendo?
>>216885419How would an Illithid counter Power Word Kill?
>Vecna is the mind flayer’s 5 star general>no wait, Vecna created the mind flayer. It’s his fursona/means of controlling stuff>no wait, the mind flayer has been in control all along and Vecna is just his puppet
>>216886085The duffers went on to say Mike is literally them and the narrative point of view of the whole show. So he probably feels a lot more important to the writer than to the audience
>>216886404She got like the full Netflix deal too to do other Netflix Shit too, not just Stranger Things.
>>216886464If that was true they would actually write him doing shit
>>216886423MR or a deathward, otherwise it couldn't, as I've explained however I was talking about a d&d mind flayer vs show vecna
>>216886318Derek ruined the .05% chance he had with Holly by being a pussy and lying for Vecna when she asked for back up.
>>216886102Thank you netflix for the mandatory diversity PSA
the indian chick has such a strange accent on the show
>this 16 year old highschool student can understand a theoretical physicists personal research notes on cutting edge science because he is a nerdYeah fucking right.
>>216886102Say what you want about Epstein but none of those girls were black
>>216885621What the fuckas speedwatcher I didn't even catch that's the same character
>>216886472The show is about things that Mike saw and experienced around him, as in things that the duffers experienced when they were kids. It’s not necessary about Mike himself. He’s basicallythe dungeon master that doesn’t intervene much with the actual campaign
What was he thinking at that moment
>>216886560>this meeting could've been an email
>>216886560>This is my 16th take of this shit does Netflix realize no one cares
>>216886404>Season 1: $20,000 per episode>Season 2: $20,000 per episode>Season 3: $250,000 per episode>Season 4: $250,000 per episode>Season 5: ~$875,000 per episode (over $7 million total)>https://www.bosshunting.com.au/hustle/stranger-things-cast-salary-net-worth/Nah when the contracts were up for renegotiation for s2 Caleb, Finn, Gaten, Noah and Sadie all group bargained for the same pay to force Netflix to go higher. Since then they've all earned the same
>>216886419He looks like he was run over by a monster truck
>>216886464>The writers self insert is a pretty boy who has both superpowered girls and guys wanting to hop on his dickI have to congratulate them on how far they got with this unbelievable fanfiction
>>216886560He's remembering every time he was naked in the locker room with him around
>>216886560>can this fucking guy say his lines properly i've been sitting here for 10 hours today so far
>>216886531Not that unbelievable. I went to a high school that specialized in STEM, my high school "major" was in physics. A nerdy high schooler reading the notes and being able to understand the very basics of interdimensional physics, that simply verifies what they've already experienced, isn't far-fetched.
>>216884274Bad take. Nell Fisher has acted the best out of everyone this season.
What exactly did they spend 400 million on this season?
>>216886581With the Season 5 payoff hopefully they are all making good financial decisions. They could be setup and just do the Con circuit even if they don't get any more work from this point forward.
>>216886560>I’M A FAGGOT! I’M a FAHGOT MIKE!>
>>216886640The actors' salaries and non-stop CGI slop.
>>216886560>This nigga lookin' ZESTY, this nigga lookin' MOIST, he's got sugar in his tank, he's light on his feet, he's a Ill bit fruity, he plays for the other team, he dances at the other end of the ballroom, this nigga theatrical, this nigga good with colors, this nigga gonna coordinate yo curtains wit you cushions and that shit gonna look good! This nigga lifts shirts, this nigga on the down low, this nigga be a tollet trader, this nigga gardens uphill, this nigga packs fudge, he's a friend of Dorothy, he feels the love that dare not speak Its name, he loves to dance, he's of the Uranian brotherhood, he indulges in the French vice, he has an antipathic sexual Instinct, he's fluent in Polari, he's a refugee from Sodom, he's on the wrong bus, he bats for the other team
>>216886640actor salariesthe cast is so fucking bloated that I guarantee at least 20% of the budget is just for keeping the cast paid and then they add MORE characters
>>216884279b8 status: redeemed >>216884333>>216884361>>216884367>>216884723
If Derek was in the roon when Will came out he would've definitely called him a fag 100%
>>216886693It's more than 20%. The kids alone got $35 million (not including MBB, who knows what she got).. Harbour and Ryder got about $10 million each. Charlie, Joe, Natalia, Maya totaled about another $25 million.
>>216885322>could have made their 7 fucking episodes more interesting by delving into this stuff>shove it all into 2 hours along with everything elseThey are so fucking retarded
>>216885931I heard a theory (that I hate) that the ST spinoff is going to be around Holly in the 2000s. It makes far too much sense given how plot central she suddenly is.
Bakers going psycho right now. Blaming all other people than themselves for falling for some YouTube lawyer’s Byler head canon
>>216886768Wills beat him up once and would do it again.
>>216884671yjk he took a sniff on the way down
>>216886499Holly wants Josh the black man
>>216886379But that means Mike and Lucas get laid so I give them major points.
>>216884939season 1*
New bread?
>>216886958no never show too bad
>>216885419Without legendary resistances or extra HP, the Illithid has no defense against Power Word Kill (instant death at 71 HP) or Disintegrate (75 average damage exceeds 71 HP). Its Mind Blast and Dominate Monster rely on DC 15 saves, which Vecna easily passes (Int +9, Wis +10). Even closing for Tentacles/Extract Brain is risky, as Vecna’s legendary actions (Rotting Touch, 58 average damage) would kill it first. Vecna’s CR 26 stat block (272 HP, DC 22 spells, legendary actions) is far beyond the Mind Flayer’s CR 7 capabilities. His ability to cast Power Word Kill or Disintegrate ensures a one-round victory.
>>216886138LMAO
>>216886877She said she doesn't, Josh said she doesn't. Only her classmates say so, it's standard kid teasing.
>>216886979Who wins between Vecna and Demogorgon?
