>>216931580crazy how these entire generals are literally just tiktok videos and reposts of what normalfags say on instagram and twitter
So why did the illusion girl forget she had a British accent?
>>216931580Who's this t. ranny looking creature?
melty hawkins lab was such a kino locationalso what was inside the briefcase that henry opened in the cave?
>>216931699Thats just 4chan in general in 2025.12

GREETINGS SARSI AM HERE REMIND YOU OF VELLY GOOD SEASON 1 REMEMBER HOW GOOD WRITING? PLEASE GET FRIENDS SUBSCRIBE NETFLIX
Why are they so insistent on filming these years and years apart? Why not just film one season per year then release it whenever its done? These doom shows and series about teenagers and children, since it is like 3-5 years between seasons and your cute 13 year old turns into someone in their twenties.
>>216931744Damn, zoomers don't even know about the "And my axe" scene.
>>216931720It was a sample that was captured from the Philadelphia experiment. Probably forgetting the details from the play but I think it was part of the mindflayer.The play is pretty good, felt like S1 of stranger things and the effects were great.
if you think the season is that bad, what would you have done different if you were the director?
Timmy bros... not like this...
Why are pigtails so hot
Is tentacle fetish a thing in the gay community because no way Will is leaving without one
>>216930421>hey guys we need a plan >we cant figure out a plan until somebody hears a random word and gets a jimmy neutron brain blast from it>let me demonstrate this plan with random objects lying around>ok guys lets go do the plan and have random forced drawn out emotional conversations every 15 minutesrepeat this like 3 fucking times per episode
>>216931777no we have japan to thank for that
>>216931580What the fuck are zoomers eating these days?
>>216931815ozempic and botox
>>216931756>Why are they so insistent on filming these years and years apart? Why not just film one season per year then release it whenever its done?Sheer arrogance and laziness. They want to treat these like the movie business. We need old school TV executives to tardwrangle show runners into some discipline.
>>216931782man she was scratching the fuck out of those records wasnt she>>216931815thats the one
>>216931782That fucking "quirky" record explanation.It could have been explained in 5 seconds "they're all dreaming, they're in the dream dimension together" but nope, we get that long, drawn out 'funny' explanation that wasn't needed.
>>216931773>pigtails with ribbons>make up and lipgkoss>lip fillersthis entire shit is so pedo coded, youd think Trump is the head producer
We GoT season 8 levels of bad now…
>>216931756the duffers never had a plan and writing the show while also making it would be impossible, so they have to go away for a year to write the next season before they can even start preproduction.
>>216931782I hate how they figure everything out based on their own assumptions
>>216931699case in point >>216931871a twitter post of a TikTok screenshot
>>216931915>tiktokThat clearly says X.com you boomer
LOL
>>216931907That's just the Stephen King influence kicking in, clearly the Differs are just showing their appreciation of horror icons!. King always has to have a Basil Exposition character who is able to figure out everything going on with zero evidence and come up with theories from nowhere that are always 100% correct.
the best parts of vol 2 were lucas/max and dustin/steve
Henry's black gf isn't going to show is she?Or is the girl that used to be British going to end up being her daughter?
Another show that could have been good if not for woke. Unironically. Kinda like Invicible, I couldn't finish season 3 because half the fucking show is about these boring ass stale relationship conversations, and every time is just ends with the Power of Friendship!! I mean the world is fucking ending and most of the dialogue is lovey dovey garbage by kids that can't act. Like what are you doing
>>216931782yeah anon I've seen the Man Carrying Thing video too
>>216931942kek
>>216931974"woke" isn't the issue with this show, the writing is just bad period, the gayness is just icing on this shit cake
>>216931932shut up elon, it'll always be twitter
>>216931720Brenner created a device to transport to dimension x.
>>216931942>go and run through that portal which we can clearly see leads to you being held by tentacles being facerapedand then Mike in the next episode starts asking "where's Holly" like he has any reason to think she would just show up whereever Max wakes from her coma. great writing.
>>216931871Image how gay you have to be to notice or care about some shirt brand nobody has heard of.
>>216931974>nooooo people who are different than me cannot appear in any type of media ever or its just woke pandering! the only people that exist in the entire world is straight white males! no one else!!!
>>21693187124 hours isn't actually a long time to spend shooting a long dialogue scene.
You can tell Millie has been sick of this show for a while but kept doing it for contractual and/or financial reasons
>>216932063She was cashing in big time, getting lots of big roles. Shame people are realising she can't act.Doesn't she have a sex comedy soon?
>>216932026I mean that entire theory relies on the makeup department paying more attention than the writers and prop department have this series. Fucking hilarious awful thing to do to the actress though >join popular show in s2 on promise of a spinoff>everyone hates you and spends 5 years wanting you dead no spinoff>5 years later get a call "hey we want you back as a big player in the final season>they cut your hair so you look like a boy, spend the entire time telling the main hero to kill themselves, and ultimately turn traitor>everyone really hates you now
>You are NOT gonna fuckin believe this>William Buyers is an ass muncher>OHH
>>216932043imagine how gay you have to be to pretend that Under Armour isn't a global brand and you've never heard of it or seen their clothes
>>216932058When its a room of 20 people staring in silence at one guy faking a panic attack over and over it is.
>>216932159I haven't heard of it and don't care, please don't mention them again.
>>216932046didnt mention race at all. way to miss the point victim libtard. none of that shit is interesting or what makes the show good, straight white or gay brown
>It's a Nancy with a gun scene
>>216931871Autism.
>>216931871Literally nowhere on the same level as the Starbucks cup.
>>216932190If you've heard of Nike you've heard of Under Armour you lying dweeb.
GOT was so long ago I don't even remember the starbucks cup
>>216931871You could also point out that the setting predates the definition of how a sorcerer differs from a wizard (wizard uses magic, sorcerer makes magic) either by D&D or from Pratchett. Up until then they were the same thing.
>>216932249It was pretty blatant, idk how the editors could have missed it
>>216932263
>>216932282damn that was even more blatant than I remember
>>216932316Wasn't there one under a seat in the final "but who has a greater story than the guy who didn't appear for entire seasons" scene?
so the suitcase in the mine was full of minecrafter particles right?
Fucking brat.
>>216932334i have no idea. for all i know it was a Pulp Fiction reference that will never get explained.
>>216931580Any webm requests?
So Netflix has decided to crank out pedo bait for this season eh?
>>216932268>>216932263>>216932282they don't miss stuff like this, there is just no time to do anything about it because CGI companies are already running their employees into an early grave.
>>216932334Not sure if autocorrect...Was full of mindflayer particles from the Philidelphia experiment. As you can discover if book now to see Stranger Things : The First Shadow right now! There are seats available for a low low price*!>*cheap seats are in the upper balcony to the side and view may be restricted by railings. We will not be able to refund tickets if you do not like the view
>>216932268Presumably because not evryone know when UA was founded or was staring in great detail at every inch of holly's body while doing post production. I can guarantee it was an Indian mid jackoff who first saw it.
>>216932358Zoom in on the Vecna's retarded villain smile pls
>>216932190They get paid by the post.
>>216932368>mindflayerhaha remember when people thought the mindflayer mattered? crazy times.
>>216932364As far as mistakes go, it's pretty minor.
>>216932380Got episode and timestamp?
>>216932373Imagine being such a freak as to go frame by frame to find that stuff.
>>216932333You want to talk about actors not giving a shit because they are about to be permanently unemployed, Tyrion in that scene is it.
>>216932268>It was pretty blatant, idk how the editors could have missed it>BlatantIt really wasnt.
Defense force has been fully engaged prepare your anuses>>216932403I got to believe it's coming back with this whole merger thing.
>>216932476there was no viable way to deliver those lines. Dinklage probably used the only serviceable approach there was and just sounded really tired.
>>216932522It's probably currently fully residing in Henry/Vecna.
>>216932438nta but it's not just a few frames, it's super noticeable and prominent and you can see if for a good ten or fifteen seconds or so. It's stuff like this that just adds to the pile of complaints about the quality of this season. As someone else said, they spend 12 hours filming or editing Will's coming out scene, to a very lukewarm and slightly hostile response from even their pro-lgbtq fans, and them miss detail like anachronistic clothing just shows how much effort was wasted or not put into this grand finale of a massive cultural media event that fans waited years for.
I'm fantasizing
>>216932654nta but I don't believe you
>>216932541Not true at all, it's his inflection that give the scene a mocking tone; like a laugh track that apparently everyone latched on to.The omnipotent time traveler ending up king isn't some asspull no matter how poorly it is portrayed.
>>216932654>it's super noticeableDid you notice the part where the actor holds up the box of Bugles and says they are vitally important? I haven't seen anyone spamming advertisements masked as complaints about that.
>>216931580They told her to act like a stoic action-man lmaooooo. I guess they figured since she already looks masculine it would be fitting.
>>216932345seducing an adult like that?needs correction
>>216932831kek
>>216932784There have always been product placements in these show. Very first season had Eggo waffles as a costar to the children. It's about this fifth season being sloppy as a whole, UA did not exist in the 80s, most people know that, that's why it stands out and people are complaining.
>>216932358Can you do the scene where Doctor Kay pushes her minion to the wall?It was comical
>1, Mikes face when he thinks Will got everyone together 10 minutes before the apocalypse to talk about D&D>2, Mikes face the moment Will starts talking about non D&D related things>3, Mikes face when he realises oh fuck the gay guy has seen me naked beforeThe directing for this scene must have literally just been "Noah start crying everyone else do whatever".
I really don't like gay people t b h
>"Imagine this object is this thing">"and imagine this object is this thing!">Simply places one on top of the other and doesn't meaningfully use the props to explain the concept.
>>216932880Someone posted it in the last general
>>216931580Anyone else doing a rewatch? Finished 1 and I'm halfway through 2 rn. Idk whether 3 and 4 are worth it.
>>216932930i'm too exhausted to ever rewatch this show again especially given how bad its ending
>>216932902I love their cute buttholes
>>216932930>Anyone else doing a rewatch?anon this isn't the Sopranos
>>216932902
What’s the big needle drop gonna be in the finale?

Holly's POV
>>216932977Probably that song thats never been allowed to be used for tv/film before. No way they're wasting that on something inconsequential
>>216932967He was already gay before that top pic
>>216932970yeah they were both running hilariously. it was like they were told to run in slow-motion, but it wasn't slow enough so they also used actual slowmo on top of it
>>216931580JFC KFC!!!
>>216932970
>>216932977https://youtu.be/Ag1o3koTLWM?si=NyINiVxyLXAsbpI-
Robin sisters...
we are the stranger things ahh
>>216932977I think it's going to be some church music.
>>216933091Are they all 50 years old?
>>216933015They're running on a treadmill and trying to match the pace of it to keep the camera distance consistent.
>>216933091Lucas reaction is the best. Like the rest of the actors at least tried to mold their faces into something not homophobic. Lucas looks like all that's stopping him doing a hatecrime is he knows what Joyce would do to him
>>216933091>>216933109They're aiming for a "gritty" look, forgetting that without a huge amount of makeup, it's going to make them look even older than their real age.
>>216933091lmao lucas really don't give af
>>216933091>top leftDo you think he's able to lick the tip of his nose?
>>216933111I'M RUNNING ON THAT TREADMILLRUNNING UP THAT LEVEL SURFACERUNNING IN THAT STATIONARY LOCATION YO
>>216932909Still brings cheer to my face.This scene works as NPC detector, if you show this to a person and they think it was "fine", they are NPC.
Will: I'm le gayAwww, group hug.Someone else: I'm still straight guises.Group: Fuck off straight white male, you're ruining our society.
>>216933075It's true, you can see that the actress looks good when she explains how the scene in the hospital was filmed. It's the lighting and the make up that makes her look like a drug addict to reinforce Vickie's fears that lover interest needs help.
>>216933109They are creaying the dark gritty atmosphere - look.
>>216933170yes saar npc detector, very funny and 4chanful sirs
Was there a single thing they didn't lie about in the promo for this season?>"High stakes chance of deaths and prepare for a dark Christmas">"Return to the vibes and groups from s1">"No new characters">"Mike Wheeler is again the heart of the show and the cast and Finn in particular show great emotional range"
>>216933172>>>/pol/
Avengers... Assemble ahh scene
>>216933262Millie looks like she just shit herself
>>216933253Cool. Did not read.
>>216933129
>>216932909I spent the first part of the season thinking that was the same guy who played Aemond in hotd
>>216933240Gotta love the ever expanding cast increasingly full of people with no stakes in the game and how they're splitting up even more.I can't even keep track of where all the groups are any more.
>>216933240J J Abrams demonstrated that there are zero repurcussions during the "Cumberbatch isn't playing Khan" debacle.
So how did it end? Did Eleven point at the bad guy?
https://x.com/HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN/status/2004919113999913193AAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>216933337It would wake up Henry so that he would start fighting The Mindflayer.
>>216933228I'm not even meming about NPCs. They are real.
>>216933357Explain this to me like I'm 5, speak Japanese, and like Metal Gear?
>>216933357His office is jaw dropping.
Has there been a more pointless season of a show? It would have been way better if it ended at season 4
>>216933377https://youtu.be/It5-qZ7Sa9E?si=i2-CKzYv9l7oqE-aDufers were honored by meeting Kojima.
"Kids" also met Mr. Okadahttps://youtu.be/KoVgN82wz9E?si=g_bS6bdNbjukx1Oh
>>216933407it's a 2h30 movie stretched to 10 hours
They ruined coming out scene
>>216933377kojima will tweet an essay when he likes something and won't say anything at all if he doesn't
But unironically what happened the last seasons? I remember jack shit season 1 >something something they bump into eleven monsters appear and will gets infected Season 2>??? I remember jack shit other than that cringe eleven in the city episode season 3 >something something mall fight (who were they fighting again?) and billy seducing hot milfs then dying in a sauna Season 4 >vecna showing up, nuh everyone getting pulled in and that metal dnd guy dying, then vecna being defeated (but apparently not?)Can someone give a proper summary of the seasons?
>>216933481Yup
>>216933499why are you invested in this if you don't even remember the show and don't know how to look up episode summaries with google
>>216933494Ah now I get it he hated part 2 then. Ill forgive him for Death Standing now.
>>216933509Im not which is why I'm lazily asking on here instead of googling kek
>>216933534fuck off pajeet
So what does it feel like to have your anus filled with cum from a penis?
>>216933481Was that even worse than Soprano's one?
You all laughed but when he actually manages it this time because he's no longer worried about Murray hitting him with his truck while screaming "FAG" out the window.
they literally botched everything>Nancy JonathanBOTCHED>Will gayBOTCHED>Vecna /MindflayerBOTCHED
>>216932026>look up how tall the dwarf is >4'11>and 32>turns out the shitty character is like mid 20s rather than a teen lol
>>216933583It was cringe but that's entire volumeUn-proposal and hospital shit were even worse
>Holly climbs down through a crack in Universe X >falls down through the upside down exactly over where the main characters aream i laffin
Am I the only one that feels there isn't much going on in this season?I hope the finale is going to blow everyone's minds, because so far I feel like we are running in circles and haven't gotten any closer to wrapping any of the dangling plot threads.
Who thought it was a good idea to add a 20 minute coming out party in the penultimate episodes of an 80s themed show?
>>216933764>20 minuteok buddy
The Finale is less 'oh my science the end of a heckin era!!' and more putting something out of its misery
>>216933736episode 4 getting 9.5 is criminal the npc’s overrated this show way too hard
>>216933763me. sorry, it didn't work. I thought it would be good.
>>216933262skeletor looks so strange this season my goddid someone radiate this entire cast of nigger lovers?
>>216933774Brother it shouldn't have been more than a throwaway line.
>>216933781ST superfans are peak goycattle.
>>216933736byler fags review bombing
>>216933775yeah its an interesting contrast with GoT. the Duffers would never have the balls to justify their decisions while looking obviously depressed.
I said the coming out scene felt unnecessary and twitter trannies sent me death threats
>>216933796You think there's more Bylers out there than angry Muslims an rightwing Americans?
>>216933796Isn't this the same crowd that shout about media literacy? It has always been apparent Will's feelings are unrequited by an oblivious Mike lol
>>216933809It's a really impressive fuck up, it didn't become entirely apparent until vol 2 moved at a snail's pace and now we know for a fact that despite the ending of s4 we will never see some chaotic mass monster invasion of our world as is what everybody was fucking anticipating lol
Which Karen girlboss moment was worse?Wine bottle or explosive washing machine one ?
>>216933796>i need to be told about and given a link to imdb
>>216933836I'd pay to see them lock beaks
>>216933823they’re running a whole twitter campaign right now review bombing, it’s one of the most pathetic things I’ve ever seen
>>216933848Washing machine by far. Can you actually imagine seriously finding that scene badass and getting the heckin chills and soifacing over that? Such people are not fit for living
the scene with robin's gf talking about how robin is a druggie on withdrawals was funny
>>216933852what is imdb unc
>>216933091>small suburban town in indiana in the 80s (these were unironically 98-99% white)>main cast is two jewish kids, black, weird mutt and a bong girlIt's just like I remember the midwest in the 80s.
>>216933901type the same question into a search engine yw
>>216933862still inconsequential to Muhammed seeing gay shit and logging into the account of every one of his wives to vehemently disagree. Anyway my sides never been more fun they've finally stopped caring and started acting like a real early 2010s fanbase
>>216933904Hopper and Nancy's actors are like the only two who are WASP in the entire main cast despite the characters being 95% WASP
>Eddie died saving nobody Was Steve right?
>>216932880My potato was struggling with the file I pirated and its worse than >>216932909
>>216933904nice 99% retard
I actually do buy this theory for the reason why everyone is either broken up, bitchless, just not interacting with their partner, or straight up planning to commit suicide in this season.
>>216933966Was 1975 when they did desegregation?
>Holly likes black guys, anyway back to the storyWhat did Netflix mean by this?
>>216933967is his marriage also the reason the previous 4 seasons were bad, and the reason him and his brother never planned more than one season ahead?
It's alway interesting to listen to design departmenthttps://youtu.be/bbJ53m89SLA?si=WwtladGLlpwRhJRv
>>216933966aren't these graphs just the population within the official city limits? i.e. don't they ignore suburbs? cities being zoned arbitarily is a thing in the UK too, finding out the actual population of the built-up area you live in is hard.
I'm so old I still remember when this board was obsessed with Finn frog memes
>>216933996>the reason him and his brother never planned more than one season ahead?To be fair, this was meant to be an anthology, as it should have been. Season 1 should have been it for this cast of characters. Imagine the kino we could have gotten. But then again, look at True Detective and Fargo which swirled the toilet with later entries. Maybe this was always doomed.
>>216934006>22 minlmao fuck off I'm having a hard enough time getting through the episodes themselves.
>>216932882What I don't get is why other people didn't already know this.Mike even acknowledges in season 3 that Will doesn't like girls.You'd think they would have been able to figure it out.I really do not get why they make big thing about, Robin is already publicly gay, so Will coming out isn't brave.
>>216934041>Imagine the kino we could have gotten.sure because the Duffers really come across as overflowing with great ideas. I can't wait for their post-ST careers to be hit after hit.
>>216934041>Imagine the kino we could have gottenThey had lightning in a bottle exactly once and every new character they introduced or spinoff attempt made things worse
>>216934062
>>216934062>>216934041reminder that "season 1 was good" is a netflix meme attempting to maintain the value of the IP after the disappointing final season. it was just simpler so the problems were less obvious.
>>216934050What? About Robin being gay knows only Steve, girlfriend and Will.
>>216934050>Mike even acknowledges in season 3 that Will doesn't like girls.Yeah but he meant it in a "you haven't hit puberty yet and are acting like a kid while I'm an adult whoops I just accidently called you a fag while saying that way" they're not having the designated self insert be actually homophobic.
>>216933848Come on bro. Exploding washing machine. At least with the wine bottle she only wounded the demi. The washing machine OHKO 3 dogs. Absolute bs.
>>216933966>comparing podunk indiana (hawkins) with Gary. We can tell you're brown.
>>216934050Mike just assumed Will was a chud who hated women.
I didnt watch a single episode of this shit but the normies are mad that it has some gay shit. What happened?
>>216934078Sorry let me rephrase that once a season they create a character they actually try to make likeable to every other characters writing detriment spout some memes and then kill off for shock value" see also, Eddie, Russian dude, Bob
>>216931815nothing, that's what they look like skeletors
>>216934037the frog lives on
>>216934082Watch there be another big confession scene with Robin next episode.
>>216934099explosions = fire so at least it was consistent with their established vulnerability.
>>216934006Do they explain why they were dead-set on making her dress like a guy would, or is that completely glossed over
>>216933023Parts of s5 look so fucking cheap like a direct to tv movie from 30 years agoThen some parts like the wormhole look interesting A shame all of s5 is filler no wonder they padded it out to the extreme and make us all wait till new years day
wouldn't almost everyone know will is gay?mike (you dont like girls) all his friends shouldve been able to tellhopper, joyce, teacher should have known (they call him a fag. well is he?)robin knewthe only ones who might not hav eknown is murray although with how perceptive he is and i think he might've known tooand 8 didnt know
>>216933860Did they get work done on their face?
>>216934142I think Robin by being herself would just spit it out in the most unexpected way.
>>216933860you'll be amazed to find out what AI can do these days
>>216934006>costume bts youtube vid is more interesting than the actual show itselfGrim
>>216934157there's a difference between will knowing they know and knowing they have no problem with it
>>216934157Joyce Robin and Jonathan knew (Jonathan especially there's a scene in s4 showing he does) Hopper has spent about 10 minutes in his whole life with Will, everyone else you cna probably just chalk it up to knowing him since he was like 6 and he's always been that way so they never caught on.
>>216934192She'll just kiss whatsherface in front of the group or something.
>>216931871Literally early in the show they had one of the characters going on about The Smiths in 1982 when they did not even release their first single until mid 1983They were always kind of shit keeping it year-realistic, because they know only autists will give a shit about details like that

>>216934157the problem is that the show never really committed to being set in the 80s. if the characters actually behaved like they were in the 80s it would come across as a period drama like Mad Men, which has never been the real goal. so it sometimes has to remind you this isn't 2025 and coming out is more of a big deal, but it can't work becasue the setup wasn't consistent.
>>216933947yes
>>216931580Can somebody make a subtitle edit of Will's confession and make him say:>"I don't like chicks, vaginas are gross.">"I like cocks, preferably uncut, veiny, and sweaty.">"I like suckling them, and always have."Or something like that
>>216934244it's not a horror series
>>216934157>8 didnt knowbecause she doesn't know anyone but Eleven
>>216931580Holy fuck, she's ugly.
>>216934244Max in the wheelchair in the final battle is going to send my sides into orbit. She need those chariot spike on her wheels.
>>216934289>Max in the wheelchair in the final battle is going to send my sides into orbit. She need those chariot spike on her wheels.At least it'll be accurate to nuD&D
>>216933091The fuck they putting in Gen xyza water? I'm 35 and drink and smoke and I don't look as bad as these skeletons They Ozyempic vaxmaxxed didn't they Everyone looks malnourished and dying classic symptoms of vax and snek venom shit diet crapFuck this faggot catpcha why do they want to kill this site so bad with these god awful captchas it does nothing for bot ai spams and just punishes normal postersAbsolutely fucking retarded I hope this place dies so I can go get another fat gf and never return
>>216934289Wait was she in the van? Did they make it disabled friendly?
>>216934289They heal quick on this show. She'll be up and running up hills 15 minutes in.
>>216934157Murrayeventually would figured out it by himself.Joyce suspects.Jonathan last in S4 noticed it, he might have said it to Nancy.Robin in S5 noticed it and when she knows something, Steve most likely gets to know it too, since she can't shut up.Maybe Hopper suspects that Will is gay.Will's friends just think that he simply hasn't met the girl that he likes.Badically half of that room already knew it or suspected it.
>>216934236he probably meant the locking dicks part
Is that the girl from The Last of Us?
>>216931777It definitely is in the straight community.
>>216934202It's because it's gives the key information and not strecth it out.
So apparently they cut out a bunch of stuff, that's why they episodes aren't as long as they had been marketed, the massive budget feels completely unjustifed and the pacing is all fucked up. Not saying this would fix this shitty season, but it might make it watchable
Bringing this bitch back really was the shit cherry on top of the crap Sunday. Also her accents so weird apparently because she's Danish-Indian, who learned British English first and is putting on an American accent
>netflix cut stuff for a season 6post yfw
>>216934244This is what happens when audiences do not like characters dying and corporate gets involved.Yes, they planned to kill off cast at one point, but they did not because it is bad for a show's audience retention. People are invested in the characters not the story or setting, and removing them is what gets people to stop tuning in
>>216934224Or something like this. Sad part it most likely would feel better than 7 ep. Will's confession.
>>216934392There's no excuse for cutting shit on streaming television. Retarded shit.
>>216934289Wasn't she in a coma for 18 months. Her body shouldn't be in any shape to leave the hospital.
I saw a Stranger Things turntable in town. The show is bringing back vinyl.
>>216934244In the 1st season it wasn't a horror show. It was a mistery show.
>>216931942Yep, it was just like that the entire fucking season, lmao.
>>216934457Vinyl has been back for like a decade nowStranger things is irrelevant to this trend
>>216931942>WE HAVE TO ESCAPE VECNA IS GOING TO CATCH US>proceeds to spend 20 minutes talking about traumasame shit happened with Dustin and Steve when they had to go save Nancy and Jonathan
The only reason season 1 is remembered fondly and is called "good" is because it was a homely series in 2016, 2016 being peak liberal goyslop era
>>216934392But it would feel more organic.
What the fuck happen?
>>216934397I don't care about her accent not being american. Hercan use her original accent since it fits her character.
>>216934079How is it a netflix meme? I think theres always been a few people saying the first season is better since season 2 came out kek.
>>216934414The stuff that people are claiming is cut most likely would be shown in the ladt episode.
>>216934392Bring the Dindu Duffer cut!
>>216934538>old thing goodyes very original take anon no it was always shit
>>216934244Strangers Thingers assemble!
>>216934536>Hercan*Her character can
>>216934392I feel like its a final cope desu. anyone can edit imdb runtimes, extra scenes wouldn't really help with bad writing lacklustre acting and just the general feeling of bloat with nothing happening hell if anything it'd make it worse if the scenes were disposable. Also they kept delaying it anyway and Netflix is fucked after this comes out they've nothing left they'd have loved another delay.
>>216934531the upside down has looked incredibly bad this season, significantly more obvious that it's all fake and CG
>>216934558>ladt*last
>>216934531VaxbrainsOzympec making them all ghoulishly sickly looking as well
>>216934531both look like ass this show is stupid
>>216934589There will be a spin off, likely with Holly. They can claim there isn't all they want; I don't buy it.
>>216934392they obviously cut it down after test-screening the longer episodes and it being a fucking disaster. now the shorter versions are also known to be bad the new cope will be "wait for the director's cut"
>>216934567Old=better wasn't the point...
>>216934609Yeah the ai Indian braainrot from a technical perspective has been really bad this season wtf went wrong It used to be a fairly dark decent looking show now it all looks over lit and flat
>>216934244BTW have you guys noticed that this is a general phenomenon now? Shows are too scared to kill off characters and every time a "death" happens, it's usually some sort of dumb fakeout.Probably because of money printing reasons and retarded fans, but what was even the last semi-popular show that at least killed off main characters (or even major side characters) from time to time?
>>216934628you are not appying the same standard to the first season: it's always been plot-hole filled low iq slop. refusing to write off the whole show protects your ego from criticism for picking it up in the first place. you knew it was derivative cliffhangerslop from the outset.
>>216934625Its amazing the entire tv and streaming industry post covid has just forgotten you can cut episodes up and make seasons that have more than 10 episodes
>>216934657Yeah breaking bad should have killed off pinkman in s1 now we get shit like pluribus where literally nobody can die there is zero steaks on shows anymoreI don't even watch this gay shit anymore I just skip thru it then come here and shitpost then go back to walking on the beach
>>216931580Such a handsome young man
>>216934397It's such a bizarre decision, what was the point? Eleven was in the lab, they could have just had her find the pregnant ladies and come to the same conclusion herself.
>>216934683Slop is becoming powerful.
>>216934625Neflix is streaming platform. Epusodes can be longer than on TV and people still would watch it if they don't like this fotmat, they just can make more epusodes by cutting long episodes into two episodes. For the streaming platform show's length isn't a problem in any way.
>>216934665I'm not saying the first season is better though learn to read, I'm saying fags having been saying it since s2 not that it's some recent phenomenon being pushed by netflix like you were implying.
>>216934683>Pictured the Stranger Things cast after being paid off after they went to the Duffer Bros to point out how shit the s5 script is
>>216934657its the result of using audience surveys to make plotting decisions and it was a factor in the age of network TV too. every show turns into a soap where characters can only die if they have no fans or if the actor wants to be written off. everyone being online has made it much worse because companies are afraid of instant online backlash from relatively small subsets of the audience.
>>216934577
>>216932909This exact moment was when I realized she was the only "actor" and could actually act. The rest of these scenes are tik tok tier skits.
>>216934683
>>216934740that's why I alluded to test-screening (which all big shows use, GoT used it too). they obviously have data saying the longer version was even less popular with audiences.
>This is the level of quality we are going to get from Warner Bros after Netflix buys themI am fucking terrified
>>216934778me too lolmaybe they will leave HBO's show production processes intact? tech giants clearly have no magic system to replace them with.
>>216934778that's not how things workit's an acquisition not an erasure of Warner
>>216934742>I think theres always been a few people saying the first season is better since season 2
>>216934778Who do you think they'll sell wb off to in another half decade kek
>>216931580ive seen every season and dont give a shit about the ending, prob wont finish
>>216934796it absolutely could be, and any protections can be slowly eroded via successive rounds of cost-cutting.
>>216934392the copening
>>216934795The apps will eventually merge but they will still maintain separate production organizations with one financial parentIn fact, WB being allowed to be its own movie studio that runs itself despite the corporate takeover was part of why they went with Netflix and not Paramount, who wanted to erase warner altogether and just gobble up the ips.>>216934796this
>>216931773because you're a hell-bound nonce
Why is it so bad though? I have never seen such a massive dip in quality. Season 4 was bloated and some parts were bad, but the good stuff was as good as season 1. This one is just terrible all around. Feels like a different show.
Noah's pink hole
>>216934392the season feels very... barren? almost cheap?So much of it is in the same 3 set pieces like the radio tower that is surrounded by nothing.
>>216934757Its honestly kind of cruel when you think about it. Like even if you strip out the romantic shit Mike and Will have one of the strongest friendships in the show thats been emphasised at least once in every season even when he rarely interacts with Dustin or Lucas, and now they'll probably never speak again.
>>216932043I can tell you never worked out a day in your life kek
>>216934838It's what happens when writers are too scared to make choices.
>>216934838>Why is it so bad though?It's all tell-don-t-show storytelling>I have never seen such a massive dip in quality.Nah, season 4 was pretty shit. Only zoomies who liked it for the tik tok memes disagree.
>>216934838Rushed and the writing is terminally retarded Despite the cool wormhole scenes it's really fucking bad to the point it devalued all the other seasons
>>216932909What's bad about this?
>>216934841finn, please.
literally every season of the show gets worsethis season being the worst isn't surprising
>>216934796They run it a certain way and change the established studio structures, while also expecting streaming only content with a certain budget due to no theater release, and yes. This easily could be getting content only on the level of Stranger Things Season 5, if not worse since this is their highest budget marquee program
>>216934807That's exactly what I referring to here though>>216934742 in reference to it not being a netflix pushed phenomenon...
>>2169345314K happened. Full HD magic is over.
>>216932190You must be very round
>>216934852what little they do have is badly made too, the upside down has never looked faker
>>216931777Didn’t that already happen last season, or was that with that creepy cgi Will that looked nothing like him?
>>216934881>RushedThey spent YEARS writing it, and more than 1 year filming it.
>the UD went from a hellscape to a town where the only thing that changes is it's there's no sunlightAnd wormhole my fucking ass
>>216931815shes got that dead inside weed stare on bottom. maybe she started smoking recently
>>216931815Some combination of meth, ozempic and cocaine, aka the Nancy Wheeler diet. The butch lez hairdo doesn’t help either.
>>216932654Are you autistic?
>"wow kate bush, that's my favorite band! xD">listens to only one single on repeat for hours at a time
>>216934838Season 4 sucked. Eddie was insufferable and the addition of Vecna cemented the show as capeshit-tier. There was only hype because the first 3 seasons came out before tiktok was a thing
>>216932043More like imagine how shit your show is that people are so disengaged as to be noticing two frame wardrobe errors.
>>216934319faggot
>>216934887>fanfic>canon:
>>216932046Gays are massively over represented in modern media compared to their presence in the population. Same with blacks since the 70s. If you truly wanted to be stunning and brave nowadays, you actually would have to be releasing a show that just stars white people in its cast. It’s completely impossible and everyone involved would never work in the industry again.
>>216933075What the fuck. She looks like Jacob Rothschild in a wig.
>>216935100>demographics should be realistic and accurate>demographics should not be realistic and accuratehow come magatards lack consistency in everything they say or do?
>>216935256>>216935256>>216935256
>>216934041Alternatively they could have had same cast but different threats, i.e. one is ghosts, one is the military accidently creating what are effectively zombies, etc
>>216934852It's actually comical how small it feels but not in a good way whereas S4 was bloated but you could feel a sense of scope. There are many fixes to the dumb tedium too, like Owens is in charge of the military in Hawkins and the black guy is reformed and his right hand so a bunch of the fucking heists and stealth missions and fighting the pervading yet retarded spec ops unit is axed and even with military allies the UD is still too powerful to be contained so there is a sense of foreboding and urgency
>>216934457No way, just how stranger things brought back dnd. Nobody in my friend group gave a shit about dnd prior to stranger things
>>216933966Fucking Gary Indiana get the fuck out of here
