the final shot in hawkins is mike leaving flowers at will's grave before leaving.
then he's at the airport in new york and el's there, and it gets revealed hopper's alive and he used his fed connections to figure out mike's flight so el can meet him again.

will and el go to the beach(probably montauk) and burn will's flannel. the final scene is the vecna'd will killing jeeta and feeling warm, implying the real will is still in there somewhere and he can feel his friends mourning him.

>>217010164
The show is just pozzed. Cast has hardcore zionists as prominent characters. It’s supposed to be true to the 80s yet the hot ginger girl (symbol of pure whiteness btw) falls in love with the black guy who has literally never done anything wrong ever. Holly has a crush on the only black guy in her class. There are TWO GAYS in the same friendship group and NOBODY even cares. Everything significant happens as a result of a woman or a gay.

everyone thinks el's dead after the dimensional merge is stopped because nobody knows about will's time travel shenanigans.

from their POV will got killed by vecna and el and jeeta self-sacrificed. even el is implied to not understand how she got yeeted out of the other world and she's kept around by now-benevolent feds that hopper works for

(the vecna-will hybrid just kinda opens another portal and throws el back into the real world before trapping himself there with jeeta)

the ending is some donnie darko / attack on titan bullshit.

Exactly. It's striking to me that so far every single show that had a pause for the strike and nearly a full year of extra planning/plotting time still managed to turn into a rushed clusterfuck.

Trying to think of one that didn't, but can't. From wasn't appallingly bad (wasn't great, either) but it was written before the strike.

it relies entirely on underpaid writers rooms being able to cobble something coherent together to make up for work the showrunners and creators didn't do. but we're already seen the quality dropoff you get from that in Game of Thrones and Rings Of Power, and being an underpaid writer in Hollywood is now barely even a solvent profession so you're not going to get hot future talents to work on the same show for years.

also it only worked because Network shows used to be highly episodic and formulaic, but everyone now has the expectation that there will be proper stories and character arcs. most normies will probably just flee to reality TV and scrolling their phones.

Horseshit. Try to peddle that crap somewhere else. You're talented or you're not. You care or you don't. You don't have to have a whole 5 season show mapped out in detail to write a story.

their lack of a plan, and the way most shows made today don't have a plan, is what's being discussed.

he takes in the briefcase particles himself, becoming vecna and fixing the timeline, leaving henry creel as just a normal kid that never left nevada. he's also his own father lmao

a time travel twist would make spin-off series, especially a reset, would make spinoffs too difficult.

very likely we're heading for something much more conventional and focussed on setting up those spin-offs rather than providing a definite conclusion.

Bros... how are they going to redeem this? This season was so ass. There is no conceivable way that they end this in a way people are happy with.
This entire season could have been a single 3 hour long movie, and would have been better than this shit.

The time travel will just be them moving through Henry's mind, but that's all they are. Young Henry is probably still wondering around in there, as Holly said. He's trapped in his own mind like they were.

a plan doesn't mean you know everything. but Chase has to have known Tony was getting fatally shot from the right-hand side as early as the second season because of the "3 o'clock" coma dream Chris has. plus the pilot is about Junior wanting to assassinate someone in Artie's restaurant, which is where the final scene of the show would have happened if Artie hadn't broken ties with Tony in the final season. he knew who the main characters were and roughly where he was going. Vecna didn't even exist until season 4.

>>217011609
this but vecna succeeding in crashing the other world into the real world makes his memories "real" somehow. it also made will's memories real.

the girls fight vecna in his memories, will physically enters the past through his interaction with vecna in his own memories. will nerf's henry and the girls kill him and then will becomes him.

it's mindflayer exotic matter magic bullshit nobody gotta explain shit.

>>217011609

>Vecna didn't even exist until season 4.
When did Phil show up?

Chase didn't know shit. What he did, and what made him talented, was storymine his own creation to make each subsequent season feel coherent, even if it wasn't. Writers don't make long-winded plans because of the volatile nature of making a TV show. An actor might die or leave, you might get cancelled, you might get a better idea, the network might demand something.

Modern writers don't do what Chase did. They go into the new season, they just ignore everything previous if they want. Take S5 of ST. They establish in S1 that the air in the UD is toxic and it's cold as fuck. Come S5, they just joke about how they're all able to walk around with no issues. The military actually has a base there. Out of nowhere there's a giant, fleshy wall. You don't need a 5 year plan for someone--anyone--to say 'hey, this doesn't work with what we did before'.

>>217011645
wait this makes sense with the reddit theories. 8+11+1 = cumulative 20 to kill henry and will rolls a nat20 on himself to fix the timeline and sacrifice himself, which is a valid move in DnD.

Phil isn't the final boss of the show, Tony is.
the war with New York was always the obvious endgame.
you don't understand what I mean by planning.
Vecna existing changes changes the whole nature of the conflict from the setup in season 1-3, who is running the New York mafia in the final episodes of season 6B doesn't matter very much.
the discussion is DOA because the Duffers have directly stated they intended to make an anthology show and so you're trying to say that zero plan is equivalent to having any plan at all. bye retard.

LOL Now you're just embarrassing yourself.

Vecna is not the final boss, either. The mindflayer is.

For fuck's sake, man, Chase swapped Tony from boss of NJ in the pilot to just a captain in ep2. And you think he had a show-long plan.

>>217010931
the strike wasn't the problem. creators planning short tightly plotted shows, then if the show was a hit stalling to have more seasons whilst also trying to have longterm character arcs and fucking it up, this is a phenomenom that goes back to at least LOST.

the difference with the golden age of TV is that not ALL shows were like that. now we're going back to "just get your first season greenlit with a marketable premise, hope its a hit, improvize wildly to try to avoid being fired and replaced so you can keep taking credit and collect tens of millions per year for as long as possible".

>>217011984

I think the core issue is the writers simply don't respect the principles of storybuilding. You ever listen to these new writers speak?

Rewatching all of them, I'd easily the best stuff each season were the things revolving around the Upside Down.
S2's best stuff was the Will subplot involving the Mindflayer taking him
S3 was the diseased rat conspiracy turning into fleshy Mindflayer takeover
S4 was the Diet Nightmare on Elm Street stuff involving Vecna
The worst parts have always been centered around the military

In hindsight, the only bad actors in this show are the ones who have the most important roles (MBB and Noah)

yeah and you’re not mad right?

>>217012122
>The worst parts have always been centered around the military
Yup. .It's like Yellowjackets and the hag storyline. No one gives a shit.

>>217012107
>They actually think metaphor is more important than the actual plot
you can't take what they say in interviews at face value.
they make writing decisions for one set of reasons then treat how they're going to talk to the press about the process as a separate problem, because that's the best thing to preserve their careers.

yesterday there was an Event Horizon thread where it came up that in interviews for the movie, Paul WS Anderson (only previous major credit: the fucking Mortal Kombat movie) claimed to have been "inspired" by Tarkovsky's Solaris (he didn't actually have a writing credit on the film at all btw). Ebert was quoted as accepting that as a serious statement. it's all just meaningless PR talk enabled by the media.

>>217012122
Military is always the least informed group so it looks especially dumb.

>>217012203
I used to think that, but I've seen it enough to think they themselves actually do believe it. These TV writers legit sound like fans of their own work attempting make even the most mindless writing decision sound like Shakespeare.

>>217012121
based, you are clearly better at TV than David Chase now. all hail the new king of prestige TV.

>>217012248
>still can't argue anything
You still think Chase had Sopranos plotted out, big guy?

>>217012243
>I've seen it enough to think they themselves actually do believe it
after it leaked, J J Abrams went around telling everyone that Benedict Cumberbatch wasn't playing Khan in the second Star Trek reboot movie. of course everyone who saw the film knew he had just outright lied. apparently it just doesn't matter any more.

pretending to be muddled artists who fixate on metaphors is just a cover for making decisions based on market research by the streaming service. with Stranger Things that started when Netflix realized they could just keep making the show about the same characters and make more money: the Duffers were in a position of either going along with this plan or quitting and I'm sure they did their best under the conditions commercial decision-making created.

Knowing /tv/'s history, I thought they'd be all over her in season 4.

holly with josh while derek sits on the cuck chair

>>217012264
moreso than the Duffers yeah which is what I was arguing.

>>217010364
>Holly and Derek are pretty much the saving grace of this shitshow.

This right here. Pretty much all of the other characters suck this season except for these two. Although they went all little TOO heavy on the girlbossery with Holly and her telescope this last episode though.

>>217012333
Lying about plotting and casting is a bit different than my complaint, anon, which is their aggrandizing of their own work, even to the most mundane degree.

In that respect, I actually think the Duffers aren't that terrible. They straight up admit much of this stuff was done on a lark. Why is Robin gay? The actress convinced them to do it. Why didn't Steve die like they planned? They like the actor.

As opposed to someone like Lisco who waxes poetic about random plot shit.

It was fine. Max was being a pussy. I wouldn't even call it girlbossy. Nancy's shit with the tracker, now that was cringy.

yeah I agree with all of this and don't resent the Duffers personally. I've mostly been whinging about how this becoming the norm affects the industry as a whole. creatives coming across as pretentious libs in interviews doesn't matter to me very much, I mean look at James Cameron.

but within ST itself the quoted decisions have wound up becoming liabilities. if you want to kill a character like Steve off, you don't cast a likeable actor then write all his scenes like he's Han Solo and create the impression that he can't die. if they flipped the casting of Steve and Jonathan they could have killed his ass and every single subsequent John and Nancy scene would be better. that's why planning is important.

if The Sopranos had been a Netflix show they probably never would have been able to whack any of the main cast because the good writing and casting would have made normie audiences reject it at the storyboarding stage. so doing a good show may be becoming literally impossible.

Not that anon but David Chase is a underrated hack. He only wrote the first and last episodes the stupid lazy cunt and people pretend he's some god.

No doubt. Remember HBO actually objected to Tony whacking Febby.

we live in a timeline where normies on instagram, twitter, tiktok are all openly lusting over holly while /tv/ is being very gentlemanly about it...
