The last shot on the stairs was moving, if sort of obvious. I like how bittersweet Eleven's survival is (I don't care much either way, but I think the show clearly has her live). Most of it was passable; even the station roof scene was just okay. I still don't think the Vecna plot was very good and its conclusion was rushed. That last scene in the basement really did a lot for the epilogue and the impression the season as a whole leaves the audience with. The back half of the season was otherwise atrocious.

there is no fixed narrative because no one making the show cares.

Mind Flayer is a species of monster in D&D and not a singular entity but if we pick the strongest Mind Flayer (an Elder Brain Dragon) and Pre-God Vecna (when he's just an Archlich), it's not even a close competition and that particular Mind Flayer just devastates him.

Vs a regular mindflayer though vecna immediately shoves its head up its own backside

Wow, what a fuck ass ending to a show. Fluffer Bros claimed, we watched good shows with bad endings, so we wouldn't fuck this up. They were probably on their phones, scrolling IG and baiting Bylers.

You gotta learn from your previous examples. Someone like Culkin made the mistake of trying to do serious roles too quickly and got burnt out and rejected.

The Harry Potter kids did everything they could to remove themselves from the shadow of their famous childhood roles. Which exposed the fact that they didn't develop fully as great actors because they got carried by the success of the whole project. To this day they're irrelevant.

But, look at the two twilight leads. They stuck with the project to the end. Then profited off of it while doing small indie stuff and were eventually able to subtly grow as actors overtime and are now both respected as really talented actors with blockbuster potential alongside artsy crap.

>DEMOGORGONS DON'T HAVE TELEKINESIS.
Considering Telekinesis is actually MF's power it granted to Henry and CIA learned to replicate with his blood, and Demos are pumped full of MF smoke - it's actually NOT outside the realm of possibility that they can have telekinesis.
I guess in the end it's just a plot hole from too many retcons stacked on top of one another.

because mentally Vecna would be able to use his "fear" against him, the fear of rejection if he revealed he felt different blah blah

it was really a clever force of the scene, like... coming out of the closet was actually a plot point, to show the character gained courage, and could now use that strength to mind-overpower the villain.

it's what the show did best. D&D was plot-relevant, the Walkman, kids-riding-bikes, freaking WAFFLES. all the nostalgia bait was relevant to the plot. even the "I'm gay" scene. the MOM killed the demogorgons by doing LAUNDRY!!. brilliant writing

I don't understand. It was established the military are the ones who opened the bridge. They have all the tech and research to do it again. So how El ''dying'' or disappearing would stop the cycle?

reminder that after the Demogorgons slaughter the military in the Upside Down, the team have the option of collect multiple assault rifles for everyone and plenty of ammo, but instead chose to go into battle with the Mindflayer using wooden sticks and shields giving the only real guns to Nancy and Hopper.

What are the chances they teleport to that particular planet again? They weren't trying to get there, it was an accident during active cloaking tech testing.
And rhw only reason Henry ended up there after Eleven tore him a new one is because the Mindflayer pulled him.

So....the planet that the abyss is on. Is that just like hovering somewhere in the solar system now?
The point was that the mind flayer was combining the two worlds and the upside down worm hole was bringing them together. The abyss was low enough for the gang in the upside down to climb up from a radio tower.
So with the work hole destroyed, the Abyss planet should be hovering quite close to earth? Or did it just get yeeted out back into the universe
>>
>>217042595
He doesn't turn into Vecna, until Jane banishes him to Dimension X, retconned to the Abyss and he finds the Mind Flayer.
These writers really were shit.
Forgot a main characters birthday and how old he was when he went missing.
So many fucking plot holes, like the painting, which was soooooo important in S4.
Mike's character arc is basically, I'm an asshole, but I apologized and now everything is OK and I'm sad because I couldn't tell my girlfriend I loved her, ever, in 5 fucking seasons and now she's dead, so I wrote a fanfic, where she lives in Iceland now and started a band called the Sugarcubes.

While I agree Eleven is definitely dead I do wish they hadn't included the scene of her at the waterfalls. It give the whole thing a much more mystical feel of Mike passing on a story of how their friend is out there somewhere safe and happy. Actually showing her gives off an impression of "o maybe hes right and shes actually alive" which heavily diminishes the impact of Mikes story.

The ending was actually pretty decent and fleshed-out, the actual final fight before that was like a wet fart though and I just felt really unsatisfied. At least the design was cool

That's it???? It all felt very rushed like they were running out of CGI and blue screens to use. Surprised there aren't more people conplaining about this
>>
>>217042800
the scene where she is about to be shot and then the helicopter exploding interrupts everyone is shot so the military guy is pointing the gun at her face... but the gunshot wound is in her chest. I thought it was just a continuity mistake when I saw the scene but in retrospect it was setting Mike's monologue up.

I knew from season 1, because you don't have characters in a TV show use homophobic slurs that actually hurt a characters feelings if you're not setting up that the character is actually gay.

why? well, if a straight character is offended by being called gay you are either implying that being gay is bad, or that that character is themselves homophobic. so gay slurs won't be used incidentally.

He is definitely alive. We know for a fact that the black shit IS him, and it was still coming out of their bodies as they got pulled out of the spidergorgon.

Mindflayer is essentially just It. He can take whatever form his minions want, but without human intervention he just looks like a cloud of sentient unstable exotic matter, like he does when Henry finds him (both times) and also in the last episode during the reveal when he is talking in the clouds

Just finished watching the last episode. Definitely the most underwhelming season so far. There were basically no real stakes or sense of danger at any point except when things started getting too boring and Vecna randomly spawned a few monsters just to keep the plot moving. Nowhere near as awful as GoT season 8, I saw a few comparisons

>Doctor K
A completely pointless villain. She did nothing all season except be annoying, with no real motivation beyond wanting to make El clones… because reasons. What the fuck even happened to Dr. Owens? Where did the mineral that gave henry his powers came from?

>Vecna
Absolutely nerfed. Taken out way too easily and without fire to weaken him.

>Kaiju
Basically just a bigger version of the season 3 final boss, fought basically the same way except it had weak points to stab and burn.

The final fight was fun, though. and I’m glad it’s over. The mushy ending was fine.

The way I interpreted it was that Henry really didn't want to be evil but he was too much of a chud to want to defeat the mindflayer. It's pretty obvious he is more or less scared of the Mindflayer and just wants a friend who is as big a chud as he is

It's the show using Mike's speculation post-epiphany as an excuse to deliver what actually happened, which is why it doesn't matter that he wouldn't know about Kali slumping against the wall or anything else. The fact that he doesn't know these details is, in fact, kind of the point. The debilitating subwoofers just tipped him off.

Joe Keery was only character who gave a shit and actually showed acting in season 5. Hope he will get chance to shine in other movies/shows instead of fading away to obscurity like rest of the cast will
