>>217037446warning: please don't try to connect the story
What a fucking disaster kek
>mike whispering: “don’t leave me El, please don’t do this” on El’s shoulder Got me a little teary eyes not gonna lie
I wonder if they gave Will powers as a way out just incase no one wants MBB back lol
How did Kali create the El illusion if she was already bled out and dead? Mike's story really is bullshit nonsense copium
>>217037446>THE PLAY THE PLAY THE PLAY>WATCH THE PLAY>Nah nevermind, we retconned everything
>>217037446Rules:1. If you didn't understand something it was in the play.2. Everything is retconned by either the play or again in S5 anyway so it doesn't matter
>>217037446So what now Mike spends the rest of his life hung up on the dead girlfriend he knew for 3 years never even fucked and died when he was 16? Killing him would have been less sad than that.
Why did they give Steve and Jonathan bizarre sexual tension in this season?Why did they reverted i think Robin to bisexual status and make her to be really physically pushy on Steve and talk out of nowhere of his fat hog Also lots of respect to David harbour and Winona for pulling out their scenes in the finale after being parodies of themselves through the season. More inexperienced actors would make their lines sounds like total joke
>mindflayer is a psionic being>fast forward to the finale>is a dumb brute just smashing his way around
>>217037446>Hey Joyce....>Your son is Gay
>you fucked with the wrong LMBTQ+ family bigot
>>217037446No but keep in mind that Max:>Is dirt poor and lives in a trailer park>Has no dad>Barely has a momIt's completely believable that she would burn coal, it's always lower class women doing it.
>Montage of pointless characters introduced to just to be killed, as Joyces beats down the evil nigga>Wow guys, isn't this moment so epic and le sad
>>217037446The whole point of the finale is that mike made up the whole storyNobody in the finale actually mentions supernatural things apart from mikeFor all intents and purposes Hawkins just had an earthquake and mike made up a story about vecna
>>217037458That dumb whore MBB got paid several million for this season. She also married into Bon Jovi’s family and had a kid with his son. I don’t think she gives an ounce of a fuck if she has a career after this or not. Is it any wonder she phoned in her performance?
>>217037446Kino
>you die I die>only moment of any danger Steve is saved by....Jonathan HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
>HELLFIRE LIVESnever forget
Why the fuck were the actors crying at the final table read? It certainly wasn't due to the script being emotional.>oh no my career is fucking over after this
>>217037488I did laugh my ass off when I saw Joyce carrying an axe on her back. Little 5-ft Winona carrying a fucking axe.Then she actually used it to chop Veccy's head off, though it took like 10 swings.
>>217037495How did cutting Henry's head off not hurt Will given he's in the hive mind?
>>217037489Standard problem in the visual medium. They have to give the heroes something to punch and kick so it'll be exciting.
>>217037446If you aren’t anti government after watching this show then idk what to tell you
hear me out
>>217037446Stopped watching this show years ago but the fujo meltdown is as good as I hoped
>>217037492You just know Vecna was constantly whispering "little faggot" in Will's ear.
>>217037482Same way the gang scaled a mountain in 2 seconds when fighting the mindflayer
>>217037487He still has Max >what’s Lucas gonna do
>>217037547
>>217037545Dustin didn’t go to her party tho
>>217037545>get invited to party>these teenage boys would rather go cry in mikes basement instead
>>217037522To be fair it was mostly just Noah who cry's over everything and Finn
>>217037567Instead the lads spent their time gangbanging Max. What's the harm? It's a party all the same.
>>217037513Why is the rail his penis?
>>217037540Only Republican government, buddy. Dems would never!
>>217037508T>he entire show was entirely in Mike's head because he's too wrapped up in movies and game shit that he can't tell fantasy from reality.Holy fucking based
>stacy: hey guys, come to my once in a life time graduation party. Also I’m going to suck your dick Dustin.>dustin: ok>mike: actually fellas, I have a better idea…What an absolute cockblocker. Just cause his GF did and left him a virgin he’s gotta screw his bro over like that?
>>217037521>"The Trooper" starts playing
>>217037581I mean stranger things is a copy of It!
>>217037556The scale of everything is so fucked.
>>217037540Someone was simping for the military a couple threads ago. I don’t understand how you can be pro government at all. It’s not a shocker that all the stranger things kids grew up to be anti system
>>217037597I can't wait for this spin off!!
>>217037522I imagine the final D&D scene means a lot more to them that to the audience, after almost 10 years spending together and countless hours on set, literally grew up with the show
>>217037563
>>217037597Derek already has his catch phrase>SUCK MY FAT ONE!
>>217037597>stranger things season 6
>>217037597>Its the party but looks more diverse!
>>217037489seems it can control henry and demogorgons over dimensions spanning distances, but can't control a bunch of retards running in front of him.seems to me both el and gay will are better mindflayers than the mindflayer
>>217037597>they made that shot to specifically show those thighs Why can't Hollywood just forget the pedo gaze for a goddamn second?
>>217037645
>>217037581>gangbanging MaxMax is exclusively BBC only, as the two scenes at the end of the show had to reinforce so that you'd remember.
What’s this about MBB being hated by the other cast members. Qrd?
>>217037665
gonna go see the Avatar sequel again to wash this show out of my brain lmao
>>217037446Kinohttps://youtube.com/watch?v=p58IeSgkPPE&si=hATo8sB1N0KqfFlM
>Vecna lost tug of war to Derek
>>217037678
>>217037547>>217037563>>217037645>>217037665>>217037678>On New Years Day I went to tumblr to go see what fujos were saying about a show I don't watchYou good man?
>retards don’t understand that venca was severely damaged after season 4>damage again after will snapped his legs
Vecna got tug of war mogged by eric cartmanembarassing villain
>>217037691Those tentacles are actually his penises and he can only yank with them so hard before they start to hurt.
>>217037695
At least he sort of got a gun now
>>217037700Nice headcanon anon. What's yours for the mindflayer is now a spider thing?
>>217037672She's the town bicycle and you know that
>>217037707/fin for now>>217037699Yes, where do you think we are?
>>217037572>>217037599>they forgor
>>217037721This level of greenscreen really wasn't made for screen shots. Even the gun looks fake
So how did that piece of the Mindflayer reach Earth and how did that guy with the briefcase find it?
>>217037635The only season I think is particularly good is the first season, but the D&D scene and Mike on the stairs still had an effect on me. It was well-executed. I wonder how effective it would be if we were seeing it in 2021 and not 2025 though. I honestly think the cast looking so much older and the real span of time had a positive impact on the finality of the ending and that scene in particular.
all those pregnant women in the upside down? fuck them I guess
>>217037701>the bloat on those handsKid won't make it to 30.
>>217037721The volume was a mistake.
>>217037727That’s not a headcanon. Did you not seehim get burned alive? Also they literally said that venca went to the abyss to recover from his injuries. He isn’t finished when we see him because he wasn’t done using the kids.Also again, will snapped his legs. Do you guys not watch the show?
>>217037482Because she illusioned her dead face, genius
>>217037740>ZOMG WATCH THE HECKIN STAGE SHOW
>>217037721>this still
I still don’t understand how anyone can physically just run away from Vecna inside his own mind palace.In S4 he was teleporting all around but how he’s gotta walk his slow ass everywhere to try and catchup.
>>217037740also why did a kid from a secret government psychic program happen to be the first person to find it? how did the other kids gets psychic powers if the mindflayer fragment is related to having powers? is that in the play?
>>217037572Lots of teenagers would have rather spent time with friends then attend their bullies party. What about this group makes you think they ever wanted to fit in?
>>217037759Because bad writers
Shame they kept Erica hidden in coats and jumpers all season to hide her massive rack
>>217037766He was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Just like Will and Barb. Well I guess just barb because they retconned it to venca always targeted Will.
>>217037740You need to buy the DLC for that bro
>>217037753I also saw him wade through gunfire and redirect fire this season, something he couldn't do last season. And also claim that he himself is stronger now too.
>>217037753Then Will contradicted him by saying he went to create the rifts to merge the worlds.
>>217037748>Mike on the stairsBest scene of the entire show
>>217037548I really wish there was a scene where Vecna just called Will out for being gay and the whole group is like >We knowOnly for Vecna to look confused>Wait, like all of you?
>>217037660not just control, it's even worse that these videogame brained writers made a monster the size of a mountain and then it can't successfully stomp a few kids directly in front of it. Not even one.
>>217037740magic
>>217037759they needed something to replace the upside down now that it's become for practical purposes just a darker version of the real world.
>The spin off won’t future any of the characters we saw, or be placed in HawkinsSo what’s it gonna be about?
>Heckin screw conformity guys>In the normie tier slop show
>No demos, bats or demodogs to protect him in his own dimension>Face smashes into a cliff like a retard>Ties himself physically to some kid he groomed just because>Dies even though his particles are still alive after>Doesn't fill any kids with smoke like he did Will so he could live on or spy on them, should have used Holly as a spy>Gives himself another physical form which allows him to die despite being a smoke monster>Masterplan is somehow worse than his season 3 plan, which ironically was his best because it just just smashing a bunch of people together to go kill 11>Doesn't use his connection to Will at all during any point of the season>Dies in 5 minutesWas he stupid?
>>217037773Girls? The off chance that you'd get to fuck one of the hot girls from your year?Do you not remember being a teenage boy?
What was that behind the scenes shot of Will and Mike kissing? Was it cut or just fake
>>217037788>He was in the wrong place at the wrong time.that doesn't answer either of my questions anon. 1) does the mf give him powers that lead to the creation of the program? 2) if so how do the other kids in the program get powers?
You'll never convince me that these to didn't celebrate never having to see each other again after leaving set
>>217037766I think they were injecting pregnant women with 1’s blood
>>217037806If they don't make it animated, or an adult only cast there is no point. They will take too long and their actors will twink death in real time again.
>>217037802Realistically, it would be like trying to kill ants with a spear while they are running away and you move the spear slower. Bad explaimation but it makes sense
>>217037802>monster the size of a mountainWhat does it eat though
>>217037806Probably the same thing. Remember the smoke that escaped the demo when they electrocuted it? Probably will infect someone somewhere.
>>217037827Finn looked so uncomfortable kissing her.
>>217037740The Americans were experimenting with invisibility on a secret project, and somehow transported a navy ship to the Abyss. When it came back, only one dude survived and that was Brenner's (that dude Eleven called Papa) father. I think the Russians tried to steal a piece of the "material" they came to acquire, and that's how Henry got infected.
>>217037801>Vecna: it's the 1980s, aren't any of you at least slightly homophobic?and then everyone looks meaningfully at the camera
>>217037806The montauk project probably. Same way they twisted the philadelphia experiment into the play/lore.
>>217037818>lucas and max are taken>mike is single but not willing to mingle>will is gayOnly one that would be fucking girls is Dustin and he was clearly fine with just playing d and d. You must remember, these are nerds.
>>2170378288's blood, but it wasn't working. That's why they wanted El because she was the most successful version. I mean, somehow she became more powerful than the original. Somehow.
What was Vecna doing the past 4 season? Why’d this dude take 4 god damn years of kidnap a bunch of kids? In fact I’d argue it was more than 4 years since he’d been infected by the mindflayer since youth.
>>217037806>So what’s it gonna be about?stranger.....things...
>>217037857Dustin has a girlfriend. Or had, who fucking knows
>>217037809>screw conformity!>lets rely on the power of friendship, it's not the same thing honest!
>>217037826>also why did a kid from a secret government psychic program happen to be the first person to find it? I answered that one
>>217037847I could only stare at the veins on his forehead buldging out like he was about to have a heart attack or something
>>217037857Is dustin still dating Suzie? What happened to her? Not even a hint of what happened to her?
>>217037828>>217037859huh I guess that was kind of in season 4 lol
>omg they are keeping pregnant women here in this base trying to create more>it's never mentioned again and they all die
>mfw I actually graduated Highschool during the time of the show runtime, just like the kids in the show didWatching that made me incredibly depressed, even though it was almost 10 years ago now
>>217037446>zoomers will say this is the greatest show of all timeAre the right?
>>217037831I don't think so, that's just a trope. I have zero problem squashing a bunch of slow moving bugs in front of me. Why would that thing have a problem with it dude?
>spent like an hour pulling at people’s heartstrings >normies call it a masterpiece and the last 9 1/2 hours of shit are instantly forgivenI forgot how easily normies are placated.
>omg this show plays it so safe, no one ever dies!!!>hundreds of women and their unborn fetuses are killed in the finaleHmmmm…
>>217037513>In a coma for over a year>Still graduates High School the same year as the guysUm what?
>>217037826>>217037826The program existed before he found the case. >brenner's father was part of the philadelphia experiment and was transported to dim x where everyone was killed but him>he came back different with strange blood>he told all this to brenner on his death bed>brenner tried to recreate the experiment>guy stole the sample and fled to the cave where henry found him>brenner tracks down henry and creates the experiments around himThis is all subject to random retconning, of course. But it's what the play says.
>>217037880I was 11 when the show started. I’m 21 and graduated in 2022 and in my last year of college. Most people who were around my age graduated high school long before the finale.
>>217037865He doesn't have agirlfriend. He acted like shit towards people 18 months?
Americans are those weird gown and hat things actually a real thing you wear for graduation?
>>217037889>Are the right?No, because the Sopranos is the greatest show of all time.
>>217037904Max is canonically smart. Mike used to copy off her homework. She also probably went to summer school.
>>217037889Later seasons had good scenes and ideas, The mindflayer was cool before the finale, Holly's arc was good, Some of the interactions were nice and some of the actors were still good.Overall though it's very fucking messy and only S1 was truly worth it
>>217037563>gay people proving the stereotypes about them by complaining that even if a character becomes a literal superhero it’s still more important to “VALIDATE HIS SEXUALITY!”As if wanting to get fucked in the ass by Mike was somehow the most important thing about him, rather than literally saving the world from a Lovecraftian cosmic entity.
>>217037904>what is common core
>>217037918You wear them for Uni in the UK. Never any other time in your academic history.Im pretty sure they do them in the US for everything middle school onwards.
>>217037918Yes. My mom still has mine.
>>217037877The broke up, you did forgot how bad Duston became after Eddie's death.
>>217037880>>217037910Fucking christ is this why I felt embarrassed watching a lot of S5? The show was written for teenagers who grew up with these "iconic" characters?I was 26 when S1 aired.
>>217037937For my middle school graduation we did not have caps in gowns. I remember pulling up with a t shirt, shorts and crocs to mine.
>>217037902it was always obviously going to be like this.
>>217037919Stranger Things shits in Sopranos. Stop roleplaying as an “east coast tough guy”, it’s a gay fantasy to have
>>217037931>rather than literally saving the world from a Lovecraftian cosmic entityIf the writers weren't cowards, the cast would have had more fatalities and major injuries - and a will x mike gay sex scene.Instead they don't deliver on anything. They did the safest, and most inoffensive shit they could possibly ever do.
>mike became a stay at home writerSo he didn’t go to college or get a job? I’m sure he’s a fine writer but you’d think he’d have a back up plan.
>>217037937>You wear them for Uni in the UK. Never any other time in your academic history.The hat things are a pretty common now my niece finished primary last year and wore one for her picture
>>217037942>The show was written for teenagers who grew up with these "iconic" characters?Yes. It’s like Harry Potter.
based duffers for not redeeming Henry. mindflayer fags never stood a chance>the first shadow play copekekaroo>chad lil henry decided to join the evil side and become one with MF.kinoi will miss MF vs kekna discussion
>>217037476Finn’s performance usually don’t click but that moment got me
>>217037955No, that show has actual good writing, and god tier humor. This show has nothing but gay shit.Even the Sopranos Vito gay arc was better than Wills.
>>217037959Ted must really hate his kids at this point>college dropout liberal feminists>basement dwelling fanfic writer
>>217037959His had makes over 100k a year in the 80s He’s fine.
>>217037964With how inoffensive and boring the finale was I wish they would’ve just Obito’d him
>>217037964They didn’t redeem him out of laziness. That’s my theory.
>>217037974Imagine how Lonnie feels>one some became anti capitalist far left writer >the other is frequenting gay bars in NYC
>>217037956Seeing heteronormative love affirmed probably crushed you spiritually didn’t it tranny
El is obviously dead because Kali bled out long before then
>>217037959it was effectively a Stephen King reference.
>>217037964He didn’t need redemption. Let villains be villains. Henry had a choice and he chose the mind flayer
>>217037942>I am le enlightened 35yo soilennial instead of a 26yo zoomerLmao imagine being proud of this
>Max meta reference at the end to the comfort and happiness ending of this dogshit showYou just know the writers are the most insufferable people alive lol.
>>217037992Isn't the implication that Kali was using her mind powers to make Hopper and El think she was dead and then revealed she was still alive when Hopper left the room?
The US could've help in defeating Vecna so they could clean the Abyss and have a special interest zone on the other side of the universe with breathable atmosphere, but instead military retards have to do evil secrecy shit just because. Things could be so much more interesting, but this ain't that kind of story, I guess
>>217037959Mike becomes the Stephen King and the ST universe
>>217037964>stageplay has this whole elaborate backstory for him>s5 comes along>a red rock dissolved into his hand and made him bad evil guy
>>217038005What was up with Max that scene. Her temper tantrum was extremely out of character.
>>217037989I am a heterosexual white man from the UK. I don't really mind if they show two fellas have hot sex or not in my TV shows.My TV loicence money pays for enough of that already.
>>217038016It’s very believe that our government wouldn’t care if the world ended as long as it meant they got el to make more psychic kids. I mean they are literally just waiting for the party to drive thru the gate. They knew about venca and just didn’t care.All this to beat the Soviet Union, which folded like 3 years after ST5
>>217038004I'll continue to enjoy owning my house, thanks.
my honest reaction to that final battle
>>217037756What stage show?
>>217037973It’s not actually funny it just has dialogue that you repeat to your friends and pretend is funny because you want to be seen as “a guy who laughs at sopranos” because you think that’s a stereotypically masculine identity to have or something >“gabagool! moolinyan!”Just shut the fuck up, nobody thinks you’re cool. Learn to be yourself and accept who you are instead of always trying all this stupid shit to fit in
>>217037481This was the only running up that hill type scene this season and they ruined it all in the remaining episodes. The powers are wasted too, he barely did anything with them. Could have saved Eleven a lot of trouble when this fag can just snap Vecna in half remotely.
>>217037889Likely. What other "iconic" show do they have? Bluey? lol
>>217038030It was a meta reference to make fun of the audience. Max is used that way multiple times in the series.She also makes a meta reference to the play in this episode.
>mike’s a jobless, uneducated, and unpublished ‘writer’>nancy is alone because she dumped two good quality boyfriends, and she dropped out of college to take the first job she was offered>holly is into black guys and fat guysDamn, maybe Ted was better off dying
Oh, yeah. Holly is Nancy's sister.I forgot lol.
>>217037987Ted was a good dad who provided for his kids. Lonnie was a deadbeat who has no room to complain.
>>217037446they will never get me to hate season 3
>>217038001I mean how exactly do you redeem a fucking child murdering psychopath?
>>217037959His sister Nancy dropped out of Emerson. She hasn't finished college too like Steve. She has chosen to be a trainee, so you shound't be surprised if Mike would have chosen not to go to the college.
>>217038048Bro is mad that people enjoy good /tv/ lmao.
>>217037889Not at all. I think the show deserves a little credit for even being somewhat watchable given how it outgrew its premise after the first season with a very young cast, excessive delays despite the cast's age making it more time sensitive than most shows, and recontextualizing the entire plot in seasons 4 and 5. That's damning with faint praise though. There are a lof of unforced errors. Season 3 is a mess and season 5 is genuinely terrible.
>>217037987at least ted was present for his children and provided for them. lonnie is fucking 16 year olds in Chicago.
>>217037964Henry as kid already was on the path to grow up a shit person. It was simple like that, that's whuy he like Mindflayer.
>>217038048>nobody thinks you’re coolwe know lol
>>217038043Real. At least two party members should have wiped, and the rest should have been left with major injuries at least. >"We won, but at what cost" type shit
>>217037446Maybe i forgot the past seasons, but when was it shown that the upside down was a wormhole created by papa Brenner? Wasn't the story that the rift was created by 11 or something? Now it turns out that they first created the upside down, someone explain the timeline to me please i don't wanna rewatch everything
>>217038081and look how much respect Ted gets from his wife and kids for the effort.
>Mike literally told Lucas to just not show up to the championship game to play d and d with himI get not being into sports but this is he cant be this retarded lol.
>>217037489Vecna and Mindflayer were comically lame this season. They also seemed to forget the MF can literally infect a person and them biokinetically reduce them down to a puddle on flesh and bone (as we see in season 3)>forget about the demogorgons>forget about the dogs>forget about the bats>forget MF's actual abilities>"our heroes" winning is a retarded contrivance
>both Will and Jonathan confirmed gayJesus Christ Joyce is so unlucky
>nancy dropped out and took the first job she was offered as a trainee at the herald>googling that indicates it's a newspaperThe fuck, she spent a bunch of S3 whinging about how it was humiliating being a bottom bitch for a newspaper.
>>217038001I agree with you. fuck this misunderstood or morally ambiguous villain shit
>>217038038Yeah. The government can be evil and stupid but after the sheer amount of people and resources they lost on the program they'd have given up on it immediately even with Reagan boosting Military spending up the wazoo
>>217038058>Ted was better off dyingwho?
>>217038063>mfw this is how the cast was supposed to look like during s4 and s5
>>217038030Writers playing into the desperate male nerd fantasy that girls would ever give a shit about their fantasy interests if they just “gave it a try”. I once saw an irl Reddit nerd blow his one and only chance to talk to a hot girl who was curious about him by immediately bringing up cartoons as if he could talk her into it (the girl instantly stopped smiling and discontinued talking to him as if he evaporated right in front of her the instant he said the word “cartoons” and stared at her expectantly)
>>217037974Ted really must feel dissapointed since his kids was nerds and none of them manage to finish college.
>>217038110>googling that indicates it's a newspaperMidwit if you had to google that.
>>217037482Her bleeding from the gunshot was an illusion. Fuck do you guys even watch the show or just look for things to shitpost about?
>>217038084Except the play contradicts it. Why write it and inject it into the show just to disregard it?
>>217037759Just saw it as a representation of their minds connecting with Vecna's and the "running away" is their minds fighting it. S4 mind palace being the final level meant all the fighting was for nothing as Vecna is at full power there Unless you have the power of Kate Bush or interracial love on your side of course
>>217037597>80s DnD group>only one white malelol
>>217038074Post a funny scene/dialogue from sopranos and stand by it (you won’t do this)
>>217038130What play?
>>217038076>I think the show deserves a little credit for even being somewhat watchable given (etc)this is fair
>>217037964>dude he was always le evil>in the scene where he gets his powers he was literally trying to help a man in need before his kid was threatenedYeah ok
>>217038122nerd ≠ booksmart. I mean just look at Eddie. 20 years old and still in high school
>>217038109Like Joyce gives a shit about Jonathan
>>217038056Do you have any more examples of this?I rewatched seasons 1 and 2 before the finale and the only line of hers that could be interpreted as meta I recall is when the boys and Steve go after the Demodogs' cry after losing track of them. "Are we really going where the monsters are?" or something to that effect. I thought it was just her having more common sense and being new to the supernatural than anything else.
>>217038134Hes not white either. Hes just fat.
>>217038141https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeIf-9jE2mEThis scene mogs your favorite show.
>>217038040>soilennial>owning a houseKek you aren't fooling anyone
>>217037827The byler faggots are seething over this scene so hard
>>217038016Don’t put any thought into it. The military, like the last 2 seasons, is just there as a filler villain.
>>217038127Why the hell would I know the name of a newspaper who's closest point of operating in near me is 2000km away?
>>217038081>lonnie is fucking 16 year olds in Chicago.which was perfectly normal in the 80s apparently?
>>217038130Oh shut the fuck up about the play. No one considers the Cursed Child canon with Harry Potter, not even Rowling. Why do you think ancillary material is canon when there are so many situations of that not being the case?
>>217038128You think the suicidal Indian faked her own death followed along behind not doing anything when everyone could have died at any moment did the old switcharoo even though even Mike doesn't think that was possible and dosen't mention her in Iceland with El? This is next level cope anon.
>>217038084yeah i liked that him was always supposed to be a chuddie
Stranger things tastes so good when you aint got a bitch in your ear telling you its bad
>vecna's reality is destroyed>it's irrelevantKEK. I said repeatedly that the constant dicking around over who is in charge only matters if Vecna realising he was used the whole time makes him turn on the MF. I even said you can still keep him evil but it's basically a destructive "This CAN'T be happening! I'M IN CHARGE HERE!" thing. But it's irrelevant, he remains loyal. So that means that the "mystery" over who is the ruler was fucking pointless. Literally could have presented Vecna as the "5 star general" he was originally theorised to be in s4 the whole time and fuck all changes.
>>217038167Retard. >Heralds were originally messengers sent by monarchs or noblemen to convey messages or proclamationsDo you know nothing about history? Did they not have Heralds during the American Civil war or whatever the fuck shit nation you're from
Why was the big bad a guy in a rubber suit and not the giant scary lovecraftian tentacle monster
alright this scene was good
>>217038164Bought it in 2018. What exactly is hard to believe about buying a house at 28?I don't live in a major city, never paid rent so I had low cost of living, and the housing market wasn't utterly untenable like it is now.
The show would have been better if it was just about a psychic serial killer taking people to his fake reality to torture and mess with people
>>217038171Because the events are addressed in the show, it was written by the duffers and show writers and rerun in performances to set up for the S5 premiere, maybe.
>>217038196>didnt watch the show award
>>217038196Because otherwise the kids would have a party wipe and the audience of faggy teens would cry
>>217038141relax bro. Netflix will be able to exploit The Sopranos for ad revenue soon enough.
>>217038157Ignore him, all “meta analysis” fags are just irl failed pseudointellectuals who try to “see things the average person can see” as if it’s a form of status. Stranger Things isn’t subtextual like this in any way, it’s for normies and kids
>season 3 mindflayer
>>217038160As if 90% of dnd players didn't look like that.
>>217038210Would have been better if they stuck with the anthology plan, like they initially were going to.
>>217038180if something this dumb happened it will be within the existing quality of the show.
>>217038230why did the mindflayer become total shit after season 3? did it get beat that badly?
>>217038165anon bylerfaggots got single Mike, him dreaming up an imaginary boyfriend that looks like his temu version, Mike with Wills painting by the bed and have so far written 800 college age fanfictions in the last 12 hours alone. Mileven got dead girlfriend hoverhand, Finn Wolfhards acting, not him saying I love you and the knowledge no matter what eventually the 18 year old is moving on to someone else and a fanbase screaming about myogenetic racist writers.
>>217038210Show would have been better if they kept the budget the same as S1. The last couple years suffered from trademark all the money in the world bloat.
>>217038213>The duffers were totes going to ruin totally use the same story guys!Yeah I'm sure they were going to make it completely pointless to watch the show if you saw the gay play or vice versa. You got played retard
>>217038164It’s possible, I bought one at 34 when rates were sub 3% during covid. Ended up moving out and turning it into a rental property because I didn’t like living in it though
S4 finale was the real ending of the show
>>217038238Yeah but they ended up with the "omg so iconic" tumblr audience.And then catered to them.
>>217038189>implying the "mystery" wasn't just planted by shills online to try to get the fans to argue about something for engagement
I wish we had learned more about the 50s.
That heckin' Millenial humor is so on point.
>>217038264it would have taken up to much time, the play exists. they should probably animate that.
>>217038265I don't get what some Jazz Singer has to do with space travel.
>>217038261It would just be like retards arguing about which incarnation of the Skins cast was the best.
>>217038238That was no longer the plan before they even made season 1. Did you forget it ends with the biggest sequel bait ever, Will throwing up Dart?
>>217038265Bro is not him
Maybe he does go college that dosen't look like his room. Though they could have just remodeled after the carnage I guess
Why didn’t they let Erica join the mindflayer fight? They already had a bloated group fighting it. What’s one more?
Most cucked characters in the show?
>>217038265Why is it piss yellow? This meant to be the scary final destination dimension. Why not a hellish red? The fucking UD having red lightning would be explained by this place bleeding into it the way our world bleeded into it and it obviously looks cooler to be red
>>217038312The UD shouldn't have had lighting at all. There is no sun there. It's a wormhole.
The Dustin/Stacy scene is a reference from when Nancy danced with him and she told Dustin girls like her would mature as they grow up
They really hated Steve uh
>>217038162>“HAHAHAHA! BASED! they’re so anti gay that they have to have a serious meeting about it! GABAGOOL!!!”See what I mean? You didn’t laugh out loud at this. You just pretend to as part of your fake macho persona.>>217038217Didn’t think so coward.
>>217038312It was filmed in Mexico
>>217038305They couldn't have had her doing action stunts without showing her giant, milky breats for the world to see
>>217038291That could have been a typical ambiguous horror ending, where you think the cast is safe and it’s all over only for the monster to still be alive
>>217037902I don't even understand what triggered the normie brains about s05e07 because it's just as shit as all the other episodes in s05 and they loved those.
>>217038329Cry is free lil bro. You got filtered by the funny Italian mob show, and it shows. #yikes
>>217038327>Hawkins malldid they every rebuild that? seemed pretty profitable. then I remember that most malls are pretty much dead now
>saw people talking about the "hellscape">search it up>it's yet another different piss realmSo we have the upside down, abyss/dimension x, and the hellscape.Why.
Girls don’t fart
>>217038352Because the writers are awesomesauce
>>217038351No. it was funded by the Russians. Also rebuilding it after the "mall fire" wouldn't be smart. it would be like rebuilding the twin towers right where they stood.
>>217038306Nah move Ted up a rung the suffering he's gone through since his wife nearly fucked Billy is Greek tragedy levels
Anyone pointing out logical fallacies with the story are forgetting the most important things.1. Its a Netflix show.2. The writers are retards.3. What the fuck theres a stage show?4. It was totally in the stage show.
>>217038351>most malls are pretty much dead nowbecause they overbuilt malls in the 80s.
I guess they lost Paul Reiser's number?
I would have preferred they committed to going full Akira-mode to deal with the El vs. military, then the time skip and LotR level endings.
>>217038352>hellscape was initially red>they retconned it to be yellow...Why?
>Mikes says Will moved to Milwaukee >we see him hanging around in a gay bar>during the late 1980s
>>217038396He was a decent character. He had no place in the black and white morality of S5.
>>217038390my city had like 5 malls and now only one is open and its the one everyone goes to.>>217038416I think they meant "kaliki", some d and d thing idk
>>217037902Yep. It reminds me of how legend of Korra used to queer baiting to distract people from its trainwreck of an ending.
>>217038306Derek is not cucked
>>217038416We had gay bars in the UK in the 80s. Though it was just in London. Idk where the fuck Miwaukee is. I thought that was a tool brand?
>>217038396The entire military waste of space could have been voided if they simply had Washingtin put Owens in charge because he has experience in this shit son the military are allies and it's still not enough to combat the UD.
>>217037853>The montauk projectfrom what i recall, the Montauk Project involved a lot of ritualized mk ultra style sexual abuse on children, allegedly. and Netflix puts in indecent sexual metaphors involving child characters because they support pedophilia, child grooming. even though the series if far removed from the Montauk mythos, after all these years, the sexual abuse elements remain. Will was raped, impregnated down his throat, then he becomes gay. Just one example. netflix is demented and evil in all kinds of ways. they delight in it. how much of our taxes go directly to Netflix? who knows
>>217038377Billy died like a KWAB though, meanwhile Jonathan has to listen to Steve about how he wants to put babies into Nancy and how many hot girls he fucks and his big cock kek. Doesn't get more humiliating than that
>>217038247Because fags cried that the eldritch monster was ‘boring’ so they shat out Vecna to be the actual main villain
>the interracial couple were the only ones to get a happy ending
>>217038436>MiwaukeeWisconsin t. Bong and didn't have to look it up because I suppose I am Ameribrained
>>217038450Progressive and based
>>217038445billy sacrificed himself for El >>217038450this is realistic. most high school couples dont get married.
>Stole 11s bedroom, dad and MaxGood for him
>>217038428Same and it's a stretch to call the town I'm close to a city. That's the point. They were throwing up malls all over the place in the 70s/80s even though the economies of the areas couldn't support them. Which is why most are now closed. That started happening even before the internet market explosion. It was its own little bubble.
Why did they just go back through the military controlled portal after killing vecna? What the fuck did they expect to happen? And why did the military just let them go? They have killed dozens, if not hundreds, of soldiers and know way too much.
>>217038456>WisconsinThe fuck is a Wisconsin?
They should have just kept Billy around to keep being evil for 2 more seasons instead.
>>217038450Lucas and Max deserved a happy ending after what they went through
>>217038480They should've added a sex scene between billy and ms wheeler
>they all cheerful and relieved driving back through the upside down after setting a ticking bomb like they forgot the government is after themgreat writing
>>217038404I saw the wiki mention that they adjusted it to be piss flavored a few days later. I can't seem to find my og torrents of S4 from the day it came out.
They never found Orcus did they?
>>217038291You aren't wrong since I think the show's tone precludes it from being a good standard horror stinger, but I think the general point still stands that it would've been better off as a one and done. I don't hate the rest of the show but in retrospect it's extremely obvious how the series spiraled out of control the further it got from its initial pastiche premise. Even while season 2 was being released it was obvious; people were just more optimistic about the series' trajectory and season 2's production had a respectable turnaround.
>>217038473>And why did the military just let them go?they were after El. El is "dead" they have no reason to go after a bunch of high schoolers and 10 year olds.
>>217037623Bootlickers are like that usually because someone they are related to was a bootlicker in the military
>>217038473I don't get why they had the military go to the radio station to get the plan outline only to go back.They should have been guarding that area anyway
>>217038468>hop became the dad that stepped up
>>217038484>Max deserved a happy endingI may be retarded, or it may have happened when I was having a shit - but I thought she was supposed to be blind now? When did they cure that?
>>217037889zoomer here, I only really liked the first seasonthe moment L met her sister and started hanging out with punk criminals I lost interest slowly
>>217038478A state in the Midwest. Great Lakes region IIRC
>>217038522The script says she isn't blind anymore so she's not blind now, despite being fucking mangled by vecna last season.
>>217038450the only relationship that wasn't dramatically played out before the finale so why not.
>>217038389>3. What the fuck theres a stage show?>4. It was totally in the stage show.QRD on the stage show?
>>217038303Really amazing that Mike with glasses looks nothing like Richie with glasses
>>217038110Holy zoomzoom
new>>217038549>>217038549>>217038549>>217038549>>217038549>>217038549
>>217038522She just did ok. She also tanked getting her legs and arms snappedhttps://youtu.be/dXF_LsRXO6Q?t=21
>>217038416There were gay bars since the 60s, the queers just kept it low key
>>217038202Why does Mike have a bust of an Alik'r Warrior in his basement?
>>217038497Still begs the question of WHY the scary evil dimension is yellow over hellish red. Honestly fan ideas are much cooler. Like this one we'd have a cold intro of Dimension X as a nice place. Wild, populated only by retarded animals, etc. but verdant enough. And then the MF arrives and it becomes what we know it was because of him. You know, actually fucking show what is in store for earth. Also the MF can apparently speak now given that it said to Henry "Find me" lol
>>217038496Let’s not forget how the military graciously decides to let everyone go and return to their normal lives after they killed dozens of soldiers and blew up an entire base.
>>217038552>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stranger_Things:_The_First_Shadow
>>217038312>Why is it piss yellow?So that the neantherthals that make up the main audience can easily tell that this is a different place.
>>217038526Same. S1 was good. S2 and S3 were pretty shitty. S4 was partially good. S5 was a mess.The only thing I really liked about it were plot lines actually focused on the upside down adjacent things, i.e. the rat plot line in S3 (?).I quite liked the shit like how Crissy died in Eddies dads trailer as well. But its whenever it focuses too much on the large cast, its when it stinks a lot. Which is why I think they should have stuck with the anthology idea. The upside down could have been way more interesting, and you wouldn't need to waste so much time on retards and you could kill them off all willy nilly and still sell your seasonal funko pops.
>>217038505That doesn’t make any sense. I get that’s what the writers thought, but there is no way the government would just shrug and let these people walk away after all that
>>217038552>QRD on the stage show?Which one, the American version (shit) or the London version (kino)?
>>217038416>OH N-
>>217038447Well that’s one reason, but also because defeating it yet again for both seasons 4 and 5 would be completely retarded
>>217038546>>217038557The power of friendship saved her I guess.
>>217038416As mentioned in the previous thread, Dahmer wouldn't be interested in white guys.
>>217038546The people writing this are afraid of having literally any consequences lest the fags cry about one of the 500 useless side characters getting killed
>>217038249Bylerfaggot? How am I this far behind in knowing who that is?>myogenic>milevenYou keep making up words. There is no way people have cope-edited and published fan fiction already. >>217038249Also, What racism?
>>217038692If they killed them off, they couldn't sell the time skip variant funkos. Follow the money.
>>217037597>not just one but three girls into dndLmao
>>217037902I've only seen normies complaining wtf are you talking about
>>217037597No group of kids in the 80s was playing DND with terrain and minis like that lmao
>>217038710I completely forgot about that, surely they can just make funkos of their corpses like Laura Palmer
>>217038431I remember seeing that when it premiered and my first thought was "They're so doing this only so no one can complain about the piece of shit they created without being called homophobe"
>>217038626Both
So who built the wormhole?
>>217038588I think we have to assume that it was an act of rebellion against a mandate from above. They made it glaringly obvious that they wanted to kill these characters off but they weren't allowed to.
>>217038450>Pixies song plays in the backgroundYou just know they actually wanted to play that other song.
Winona Ryder just quit the show early?
>>217037481the nosebleed is him after thinking about Mike's ass
>>217038781It's fiction.
>>217037597>>black Josh gets Holly>>delightful Derek gets the two other girls at once.Based kids
>>217037904Summer school and night classes
>>217037482We never saw her get shot. She made Hopper think she got shot afterward.Murray’s explosion saved her. But she still wanted to die there.
>>217037672Bases
>>217039295Gigantic!
>>217039295Poor Erica has to hear Max getting plowed in the next room.>>Gag me with a spoon
>>217037864EVEN STRANGER THINGS
>>217038505Hop litteraly killed dozens of soldiers and destroyed equipment worth millions of dollars inckuding the black ops mind altering top secret goverment snatching children programme
