Jonathan wanted out of the relationship so he psychologically created in his head that Steve is trying to take away her from him. It's was easier for him than just sit and talk with her, he prefers to avoid it as much as possible.

After Lucas won the Hawkins high school championship in season 4 (basketball is BIG in 1980s Indiana), she bragged to all her friends that she knew her brother’s best friend Lucas and that he’s spent the night at her house.

Anon just because you were too insecure to gather every single member of your family, all your friends and your fucking acquaintances who deal you contraband to cry at them for 5 minutes about how gay you are and emotionally blackmailing them into accepting you by implying your powers won’t work if they don’t accept, that doesn’t make the show bad

Impregnation makes a lot more sense, but I bet it was deemed too dark and disturbing.

Only season 1 was good, but even then seasons 2 to 4 at least all had something to keep you hooked and watching. 2 gave us Billy and Steve’s redemption, 3 gave us the retarded Russian shit, 4 gave us Vecna for the first time as well as his origin. Season 5 has had nothing.

Am I totally retarded for thinking they didn't break?

Venca would have been fine if he was simply a sentient mind flayer fully merged with Henry as a combined being. Destroying the creepy lovecraftian/sci-fi aspect of the show for a boring freddy Kruger knock-off is unforgivable.

He might be the only not-a-cunt adult who doesn't spend all his time denying the monsters and crazy shit directly in front of his eyes and the fact that he's tapping that low-key hot librarian pussy that probably shushs with each thrust makes him probably the best adult.

My theory is that they don’t kill anyone because they don’t know how to make the other character’s react authentically to another main character’s death when they’ve still got to focus on stopping Vecna. I think they’ll only kill someone at the very end so they can just time skip to a funeral scene.

Not in a sense of hoping to see kino, they blew that by refusing to fully do Henry's origin in Vol 2 and dicked around with other things but if Vecna remains the arch villain it's such a cherry on top as to what a shitshow it has all been
>MF is the arch villain
>actually no it was Henry all along!
>actually that was a twist within a twist and the play shows it was really MFall along, our original big bad lol
>and now we will hint at the play in the show but actually it isn't MF it's still Vecna all along
Like it will be the great example of a total fuck mess BTS over something as simple as committing to who is the main villain

This season feels like it was written by mentally handicapped monkeys and jewish faggots

The fucking evil military is annoying, they should have had Sam Owens in charge in s5 with the black guy not reformed and his right hand and even WITH the military attache on their side they are losing. Give the show some more fucking stakes and sense they are on borrowed time and voiding all these heists and scenes dedicated to these boring ass goons and generals who are comically intransigent

no it's not, last season of GOT literally had characters teleporting around and going against 7 seasons of character development to make the ending D&D wanted happen. this is more like the opposite where the entire runtime of the show is about justifying that ending with non-stop exposition, they're at least putting in the work to justify getting to the ending they want, it's just as the expense of the quality of the show. it feels like 90% of dialogue between characters is completely expositionary.

Pretty sure the infamy over ST never killing characters led to people snoozing through Jonathan and Nancy's dramatic life threatening scene. It also now only occurred to me that Max can see.

So is this show ultimately criticising homosexuality?

Will is abused by Henry (Vecna), commonly people say that gay people are created via abuse by older men and then continue that cycle of abuse. Henry is quite camp, an aged twink. He wants to bring about his world via manipulating children.

If it was all shit out at once people would have been fine with it. These three episodes lacked a certain momentum and had very little in the way of answers. People have been complaining endlessly. If the show had just fully released then either it would have been forgotten about in a week or the early momentum would have glossed over some of the dumber parts. Instead people are gonna endlessly moan because it ended on that.
>>
>>216898877
i agree she feels checked out, just there for contractual reasons. if the rumors of her clashing with Harbor on set are true that probably didn't help either. whatever enthusiasm she had for the role evaporated during the long wait to hurry up and finish the series.

>>216898925
what character development though? most dialogue between characters is planning for the next special effect/action scene or explaining the plot reasons for why the special effect/action scene happened.

Wait, but if all the gays died when Jesus was born, and gays can only become gay by catching it from other gays, then either no gays exist, or Jesus was never born, and since y'all diddlers keep insisting everyone and everything is gay, that means you deny the existence of Christ, which makes you both an atheist and a jew, so shit the fuck up and get in the oven, Schlomo.

most Robin and Max scenes because they're all expository and just exist to justify whatever new retcon or whatever they're asspulling. like most of Max's dialogue is dedicated to explaining the plot of the dream world or whatever the kids are in. Robin solving the Russian code in S3 has become her sole character trait besides being a lesbian and that's her purpose in every group scene now.

They literally respond with this line for less. God they really fucked that up.

Mike already has one circa S3 when he rips on Will for his immaturity by saying
It's not my fault you don't like girls.

Which was his way of saying Will is stuck in the past and childish. But now is viewed as foreshadowing because the Duffer's realized they could kill two birds with one stone by making a character gay to score points and making hetero-normarive dialogue come off as clever instead of out of touch (with zoomers)

Poor girl she clearly hates it but has to smile to the camera.

Yeah, it was hollow, there was no tension, there was no doubt, there was no cost. It was just an unearned, unqualified, unbelievable W for the safe middle of the road centrist default popular position. That's whynit was pointless. It had no point. It didn't teach homophobes to be more accepting, it didn't teach the gays to be more honest with their friends, it didn't give the white women the counterfeit pride of heroically telling themselves they'd have been the one good person in the less enlightened period of history, it did nothing but make the viewers feel boredom and cringe, and we can all get that just from not consuming media and remembering our own lives, which is why we consume all this slop in the first place, to avoid introspection and feel vicariously heroic, and nobody got that from this, not even the hated other in your personal outgroup. Pointless. I'd literally rather watch a video of Hitler complaining about an infected ingrown pubic hair than Will fucking Byers come out of the closet to a room full of people, half of whom have known he was gay for the better part of a decade, and three quarters of whom he's never exchanged two words with.

Isthe Pit the name of your favorite gay night club in Tel Aviv, Shekelstein, and if God made us all perfect, why you chopping the tips off baby dicks?

They synch up. Presumably part of the synching process is responding to maudlin emotional lability and mirroring it. They're especially prone to this synching phenomenon when they're young, stupid, and at their most fertile, so, yeah, this could legit be real. But they also claim to hit menarche well before they do in order to have an excuse to exclude and bully the girls still awaiting their "first night at the Overlook Hotel."

I still laugh at your Michael Jackson impression.

If "clever foreshadowing" worked so well for them, why did they switch to having him talk like a no-subtlety xillennial making a brave facebook post in 2002?

As other anons have stated. None of the characters had reactions that were in-line with their characters. They really rushed the whole Will confirming he's gay thing after they dragged it out for 5 seasons.
Sadly it really ruined the momentum of the episode.

I watched it with queer family, I laughed at the shitty delivery after such a big buildup. I was scolded because "What's funny about that?". The writing, how forced it was, etc.

Really feels like it was forced and almost like it was written during 2020-2022's height of queerdom where everyone had to walk on eggshells when talking about fags.
