She survived edition.>>217054419
>>217056377>She survived edition.yes
Derek won
>>217056377>She survivedHaving to be alive for the shit ending
The biggest question is how was Nancy so popular when she's so ugly?
>>217056403Robin is NOT D tier
ONE THING
>>217056377>kill a shit load of soldiers and fuck with the military forever>escape the upside down and captured by milatary>18 months later everyone living their le best life with no repercussionsdefend this garbage writing
Josh chads won
The writing was awful if you actually think about it.
>>217056431You don't even have to think about it to know it's awful
Season 4 Eleven was peak eleven
>>217056448she looks better with shorter hair (not a buzzcut though)
>>217056448season 3 you mean
Nigger kid likes to watch btw
>nooooooooo you cant be lifelong friends after school... because... uh... you just cant okay!!!!!!Struck a nerve, did it?
Steve won.
>>217056430Blackedfags are mentally ill and utterly gross.
>>217056454I think she's cute with the buzzcut
>>217056441Chance of Finn pulling a Pattison when he's older?
>>217056482I mean she is. But like almost all girls she is cutest with that short ear-length tomboy cut.
>>217056471is he fag for steve or something
>>217056481It's one guy who literally admitted he was blackYou dont have to worryHe'll get shot by a rival gang in real life soon
>give Will his "powerful" coming out scene>give him his "wholesome crush" on his childhood friend >his future is meeting up with some dude at a stereotypical seedy-looking gay barThis makes no sense. If anything, Will seemed like he would grow up to be a straight edger.
>>217056377Will sure cries a lot, huh?
>/tv/ posts that aged poorly
The real question is how long it will take humanity to figure out reverse engineer what they saw to create their own wormholes to other planets
>>217056403Harsh but fair. I'll allow it.
He should have been a regular cast member instead of dying in season 2
Now that the dust has settled, what is your pick for the most retarded scene/moment from S5?
>>217056550
Demodogs?Demogorgons?Bats?Good writing?Stakes?
>>217056425>giant eldritch horror that has existed for who knows how long>dies when his human puppet dies for some reason >reacts in goetic pain to small arms fire, and a flame thrower, while its demogorgon underlings brush off automatic rifle fire and heavy machine guns roundsNo the writing is dogshit. Also the dialog is cringe
>>217056425This fucking pissed me off.HOW ARE THEY NOT ALL SECRETLY DISAPPEARED BY THE EVIL MILITARY OR BELOW A PRISONHOW THE FUCK IN THE VERY LEAST IS HOPPER. SOMEONE THAT KILLED LIKE TWO DOZEN SOLDIERS NOT IN TROUBLEFUCKING SHIT HACK WRITING
>accomplishes literally nothing the entire finale>disappears after El dieswhy did she even exist
It was a ride, not a super great one, but it was fun.
>>217056560Purple RainPurple Rain
>>217056550Joyce maybe should have sharpened that axe before going to dimension x
>>217056424KEK
hey how come they killed dozens of people and got arrested by the military but then it cut to 18 months later?
>>217056471>got the simple life he wanted with a job that he loves>is getting closer to find the right girl to start a family with> robin would probably give him a chance if she ever feels curiousWON
>>217056572Was she supposed to be Hillary Clinton?
>>217056448>>217056458season 1 with the wig and dress you mean
>>217056572The military plotline and the russia plotline were the most braindead writing decisions in the entire showAbsolutely retarded
>his smile dropped in half a second
>>217056461I don’t know anyone who is still best friends with their high school buddies.
>>217056424Kek. I thought that scene looked familiar
>>217056593...how old are you?
>>217056556Jesus Christ. Atrocious.I don't even know where to begin.
Delightful Derek won the girl
There's a general for this? People on this board actually watch this sloppa? Who tf am I browsing /tv/ with? Normies?
>>217056524>nigh unkillable shadow demonthey killed him with waterballoons. also i'm just realizing season 4 was almost 4 fucking years ago holy shit
>>217056461>Nancy 1v1 a kaiju mindflayer>Wills gay acceptance speech in the 80s>Exotic matter>No repercussions from killing the military>all of this is okay yet somehow people staying friends is the most unbelievable thing this season
The military guys also looking sad when El died was too funny
>>217056403I don't get why people pretend to like Derek.
>>217056550Coming out scene by far. Ridiculed even by gay people
>>217056620So it was supposed to be her
>>217056550any scene of dustin being emo
>>217056377MEMBER DA 80s? ME NEITHER
>>217056625king
Cute couple!Glad they got a happy ending atleastKikes and pajeets on suicide watch!
>>217056572The only explanation I have for how dogshit this character and subplot were is that they shot a whole bunch of plot threads that wound up getting cut and they reduced the presence of her character and the military in editing. Genuinely why would you cast an actress like Linda Hamilton in a role where she does absolutely nothing for the entire season and isn't even killed off or resolved at the end
>>217056377No one in this show faces any consequences. Nancy Wheeler shoots and kills like five human, American men, people who probably had families and kids and shit, and eighteen months later she's just sharing beers with her buds talking about her shitty journalism job. Not even a single fucking ounce of PTSD. Defenders of this show keep comparing it to LOTR because no one really died in that story either, but Frodo at least was so goddamn traumatized from ring corruption that he had to leave his home and friends forever just to move on with his life.
>>217056688>lil timmy STILL seethinglmao
its literally impossible to stay friends with hs buddies. Once you go off to college that’s literally it, you lose all the friends you had to get brainwashed into being a good zogbot
>Joshua lost>Will is doomed to have sex without love till the end of his days>Mike stayed straight>Robin's lesbian friend isn't show in the epilogueWhat happened with Netflix?
it's not The Godfather
Was I imagining things, or when the mind flayer was chasing Nancy into the crevice she baited him into, she racked the handle on her rifle as if she were chambering a round?
>>217056701She does stuff but mostly for part 1. Once that her character is too important to just disappear but obviously no longer needed for anything story wise. They probably would have been better killing her off in that lab and having the other dude go rogue.
>>217056728>Im a racist incel chud that has no friends therefore nobody can have lifelong friends!
>>217056730>Johnathan and Nancy's romance ended because Johnathan thought she was too perfect and too independent and too strong and too good for him so he's just happy to be in the same room as her>meanwhile she's getting pounded in new york or boston or wherever the fuck she was>steve still hit it first
It's kind of depressing when you have Dustin give a big speech about how important his friends are to him and then have Steve and the gang talk about how they'll always stay friends and then you have El (who is socially stunted to begin with) apparently alone and friendless fucking off to some strange place where she doesn't know anyone. It's almost more depressing than if they just said she died for sure.
>>217056669>robin in Abazinga
>>217056728Huh? I'm literally still friends with kids I met in preschool and graduated highschool with. We've been friends for almost our entire lives.
>>217056728My friends from HS went to the same college as me, I also introduced them to my middle school friends back in the day and we actually hang out together sometimes.
>>217056728>Alienate your friends and family to become le redpilled, like me!
I think the laundromat oxygen tank scene with the Karen Wheeler hero shot at the end is the single worst scene of television I've ever watched
>>217056769>It's almost more depressing than if they just said she died for sureThis. And Mike will have much more trouble to move on.
>>217056784I thought it was awesome.
>>217056722What's the matter? You upset divonte? Don't worry you can watch from the closet
>>217056783I know Finn and Maya are friends irl but have their characters talked even once in the show?
>>217056791If you're 12 then I get it
>>217056804Not my fault you can't have fun and enjoy life
>>217056769All of the speech was dumbIt was about the school le coming together in the face of adversity and forgetting about their divisionsThe last thing we saw from the school was the jocks beating dustin's assIt's like the speech was written for a conclusion to an entirely different show man
guys is this shit worth watching for steve alone? I stopped after season 2 but he was kino, did they fuck his shit up or nah
>>217056772You are a rare exception. You realize most people nowadays dont even have a real and tangible friend group?? What most millennials and gen z’ers would call a “friend group” is actually just a bunch of self centered acquaintances
Steve won in the end, that's all that matters.>fucks bitches>achieves his dream of having tons of kids>can afford to buy a houseabsolutely based
>>217056736Nope. It actually happened. They even added reload sound.
>>217056821KEK, you're right
>>217056814do you enjoy eating a steaming hot plate of shit too?
>>217056784The issue with scenes like that is that the writers clearly write "gang gets into trouble and gets out of it" without figuring out the how. The Demidogs absolutely eviscerate the two soldiers accosting the named characters, then run RIGHT by them later because "oh it's ok, they're not looking for us".They're running roughshod through the entire hospital, but stop when they enter the room with the named characters. They meticulously, slowly, and menacingly creep and sniff each corner as if they have the time to inspect each and every room for 15 minutes before moving on to the next, despite sprinting through the rest of the building beforehand.Then her plan relies on Vecna only sending 3 total demidogs, them all being in the same room at the same time, her being able to creep up on them from behind despite being comatose and have severe atrophy while carrying an oxygen tank multiple stories down the stairs, throwing it into a fucking industrial dryer without them hearing, and having all three of them walk up to it at the same exact time, stare at it, and wait to die.It's just fucking lazy.
>>217056830>You realize most people nowadays dont even have a real and tangible friend group??Anon, just because you don't have friends it doesnt mean nobody has friends lol
>>217056572>why did she even existto legitimate the suicide plotline. without her, eleven has no reason to kill herself.
>>217056821>It's like the speech was written for a conclusion to an entirely different show manThe entire valedictorian speech scene had me feeling like I was losing my shit. Straight up feels like it was written by AI and I am not kidding, it's so baffling
>>217056837Holy fucking hell, someone post it on /k/. Let those autists rage for a minute.
>>217056837It's funny too because Netflix just posted their behind the scenes video on the finale, and it was 2 women watching this scene who just said "she looks so cool" when they watched this
>>217056837And here is with the soundhttps://i.4cdn.org/wsg/1767331213890364.webm
>Mike is useles-
>>217056821>The last thing we saw from the school was the jocks beating dustin's assI thought about this too. I don't understand where that came from but I guess he had Steve in mind when he said that. But Steve is obviously an unusual exception and it doesn't make sense.
>>217056879Mike did absolutely fucking nothing this entire season. He was beyond useless and had absolutely no scenes of any magnitude.
>>217056874The handle was a Kali's illusion
>>217056854Shut the fuck up. Just shut up.I have plenty of friends. Im just stating a fact, sorry you are too stupid to understand what is happening in our world now because of technology and stuff
>>217056853Not to mention that the named characters are literally playing music out loud on a boombox from their hiding spot in the very room that the Demodogs are in, and they prioritize the subtle clinking of the dryer as the thing to focus their attention on
Did Finn and Noah really kiss
>>217056837holy shit
>>217056879not gonna lie this looks so cool
the real question is if mike popped elevens cherry
I have no friends...
>>217056898he created a fan-fiction about Eleven and that's it
>>217056898He does nothing every season. Literally useless except for being the love interest of the girl with super powers.
>>217056403>>217056669Kali deserves her own tier for being so garbage. the one episode she had was already too stupid. stay gone
>mike became an incel>nancy became a strong independent woman>will got with a fag>Lucas got with max>Holly got with JoshWhat did the Duffer Bothers mean by this?
>>217056879What SyFy movie is this from?
>>217056461You already got btfo'd in the last thread lol
>>217056940Some random Icelandic man did.
Maybe Eleven's death would've been impactful if she did anything this season. All she did was save Kali and her big death scene happened after they already killed the villains. She was way more important in season 4... why wasn't that just the last season?
>>217056837
>>217056728Oh boy. Here we go
>>217056461Didnt you know? You cant have friends for longer than a year!
>>217056604Damn, this website really is just losers
>>217056728I’ll pray for you anon
>>217056837oh my kekking god what
>>217056879I love popping this badboy at Sniper
>>217056728>>217056830
>>217057007If anyone Will was way more impactful since he apparently can just link into Vecna's mind at will and kill him on a whim. And yet it didn't occur to Vecna to just kill Will the 1,000 chances he had to do so.
>>217056837Holy fucking guncels in hollywood get stupider every single fucking yearIt's LITERALLY YOUR JOB to know how these things workThis is like that joke from the simpsons with the mag in the revolver only It's not a joke
https://youtu.be/DeFuNwkLcHw
>>217056491he looks more like Paul Atreides than that other Jew. They should recast the part or cast him as Leto II.
>>217056424NETFLIX DOESNT KNOW WHYhttps://youtu.be/Bf6GVj80Doc
>>217056853Those 3 demodogs are the last we ever see btwDont think about the fact there were several of them in the attack at the gate and only 3 of them were killedGoing by what we see in the season, vecna only ever had access to 3 gorgs and 3 dogs in this entire season. What a joke of a final battle man
>he thinks there's nothing wrong with peaking in HS and never moving onYikes
>>217057071Hearty kek
>>217057065Explain to me how the fuck a gun WOULDNT make a sound when reloading it? huh?
What's with the "you can't keep your friends from high school after you're an adult" thing? Is it a common thing in America to just dump friends like that?
>>217057101What about the bats?
>>217057109https://youtu.be/22K8fPfxWz0only good thing to come out of this shit season is the memes
>>217056971The niglet watches from the closet just like you while Derek plaps Holly and her two friends in tbe basementThis is canon btwI know you're upset about it, but it's what it is
>>217057112Dumbass
>>217056949>OH N-
>>217057116>Americadefinitely not an american only thing…but yeah, its kind of expected that when you become an adult (uni) you move on past you secondary school mates and find new ones to help you excel in your path
>>217057102Who says having lifelong friends mean you peak in highschool? What does that have to do with anything? Why are you so obsessed with highschool?
>>217057116It is common for people to start their own lives after moving out of their parents' house. Yes. There's a difference between keeping in touch with HS friends and keeping them as your main friends. It's a sign you're stuck in the past and can't make new relationships and transition into adulthood. The only life long relationships you should have is your family. That includes the family you make for yourself.
>>217057123>timmy making up delusional cope just like MikePottery
>>217057143What do you consider a "lifelong friend". At what age do you aquire this friendship, in your mind?
>>217057101>Vecna is lying dormant in the abyss hooked directly up to the mindflayer>the abyss is the home of the demogorgons, demidogs, and demibats>absolutely 0 of them in the entirety of the abyss>none of them present to protect the dormant mindflayer/vecna>they don't summon them to attack the cast when they detect their presence in the abyssThis is supposed to be their home, where they come from, right? How the fuck are there absolutely 0 of them there?
>>217057142Yeah, I made new friends at uni and I naturally spent more time with them, but it's not like I don't keep up with my high school and even middle school friends anymore.
>>217057177You sound like a hometown hero type
>>217057165It's okay dudeSomeday you'll die and be reincarnated into a higher casteNot brahmin, but maybe the top of dalit, for sure
>>217057152>There's a difference between keeping in touch with HS friends and keeping them as your main friendsOk, I get it now. I wouldn't find it strange if you still had a HS friend as part of your main friends if both of you still lived in the same city, though.
No one stays in touch with people from high school. You'd be searching a very long time to find anyone in their 30s, 40s or 50s who still knows a single person they were in school with or ever sees them in person. It would be very wierd if they did. Before social media people simply never saw or heard from them again.That's not the way life works kid.
>>217057172The writers literally just forgot about it
>>217056430What a chad
>your parents signed a contract, NOW HUG DEREK
>>217057199Definitely not. My dad was, though.
>>217057223>I wouldn't find it strange if you still had a HS friend as part of your main friends if both of you still lived in the same city, thoughNo. That would make more sense, since you'd still have a big commonality with them.
>>217057152>It's a sign you're stuck in the past and can't make new relationships and transition
Derek is a fucking heroHe was willing to lay down his life so the other kids could get to safetyWhen Holly was in danger he pulled her from henry's graspAfter they were all safe, he was hugged by King Steve, thematically passing the crown of King of Hawkins to DerekKing Derek and Queen Holly will rule hawkins with an iron fist
>>217057226Unusual, in that it doesn't happen often? Sure. But why do you say it's weird? Is it that hard to grasp that you happen to make a friend as a kid, and you both grow up to be people still have shared interests?
>that feel when these threads will die out eventually and all we'll be able to hope for is a meme thread happening sometimes like the Sopranos or something
>>217056550Coming out. You can tell they really thought they had crafted something truly amazing and heartfelt that would resonate there. Instead, it was just dull, skippable shit.
>>217057059writers forgot
>>217057314>Is it that hard to grasp that you happen to make a friend as a kid, and you both grow up to be people still have shared interests?That usually happens with family more than some kid who lives down the block from you.
>>217057317Why did the music in this scene sound so familiar?
>>217057317Stranger Things is basically a live-action anime. Why is it so hard for them to replicate its success? There's a big appetite for shows like this and this slop is all we have
Vecna did nothing wrong. Try to prove me wrong
>>217057317This show doesn't deserve any more threads.
What's up with american fantasy shows (non cape shit) where the big bad gets done within 5min?That shit is so fucking lame.There should have been an entire episode dedicated fighting Vecna with some of the main cast dying. A bunch of hillybillies defeating this big bad demonic thing just kills all tension. Feels like once TV shows are in their final season they just dont give a fuck no more.
So Mike is going to be that weird older brother who hits on Holly's underage friends, right?
>>217057317I'll miss posting El
>>217057356Because it was a somber piano version of the music that played when we first met themhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ha2OcL_0gtM
>>217057366Idk anon, killing some high schoolers with trauma seems pretty wrong to me. Especially the cute cheerleader.
>>217056550The Kali scene with the pregnant women in Dr. Kay’s base. The Duffers completely forgot about them.
>>217057304>henry has telekinetic powers >doesn't just telekinesis the kids back to him>sends his tentacles to grab Holly>still overpowered by some fat kidHoly shit Henry was just impotent this season. It was hard to take him seriously as a villain when he was foiled by his unwillingness to just win.
>>217057386>cute cheerleader.she was an addict, thats not cute
>>217057386Chrissy deserved better than the psychopathic jock she was going out with and he deserved getting bisected in a death scene that happened so fast that I forgot it even happened until I wondered where he was in Season 5
>>217056572Linda Hamilton is there to be a name attached to a possible spinoff.Stranger Things: The Hunt For ElevenStranger Things: Some New Conspiracy Bullshit staring Linda Hamilton as the evil Dr Kay
>>217057365>Why is it so hard for them to replicate its success?The lack of da bigga booba
>>217057339>Vecna overpowered Will's mind and had him by the balls to find Max for him>finds Max>knows Will has the ability to hijack his mind and body>doesn't kill Will because reasonsHoly shit Henry was just impotent this season. It was hard to take him seriously as a villain when he was foiled by his unwillingness to just win.
So… the US government just let them all go?
>>217057365Borderland Alice was surprisingly good for liva-action anime
>>217057408Chrissy should have gotten robin's role and been actually paired with steve properly12 little nuggets
What happened to the basketball kids? I was surprised they bothered to keep them into the start of the season, but they just vanished after beating up Dustin. Sure I get they'd served their narrative purpose, but it still felt like a weird loose end that was begging for a more concrete resolution.
>>217057368More time dedicated to let audience know there is a faggot in the group.
11 being alive is COPE
>>217057420He needed Will to enter his mind and figure out that Max is in the hospital... which he already knew since she was in a coma
It’s so fucked up how they made Mike end up alone. He’s never going to get over Eleven. In my headcanon he moves in with Will and his boyfriend so he can at least live in comfort with his best friend. This is just so sad.
The worst part of the show for me is how the military is treated.>completely incompetent >led by some insufferable old hag in S5>can't take out monsters that the neighborhood kids accomplish with Home Alone tier traps>somehow can't keep said kids from meddling in their affairs>has no discernible motive >only agency is being the faceless "bad guy" to provide countless fodder being killed off>let's all the kids and people involved with breaking into their facilities and destroying government equipment off scott-free with no explanation givenWhy the fuck did they even exist?
>>217057317See everyone in 20 years with stranger things 2000s
Everyone is so fucking ugly in this show, except for Max
>>217057399When they were talking about blowing everything up all I could think of is "what about the pregnant women at the base?"Fucking brutal stuff.
https://litter.catbox.moe/kkq730wttni05kds.mp4What did will mean by this bros?
>>217057409I wouldn't be surprised. They already said that the Mindflayer stone thing that the scientist had in the briefcase is going to be tied to whatever spinoff is in the works.
IN THE END IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER
>>217057439But after he was done with Will, he could have just killed him. As much as Will links with Vecna, Vecna links with Will and it just becomes a tug of war at that point. One that Vecna's seen Will win before, so he should try to kill him at any given opportunity.Holy shit Henry was just impotent this season. It was hard to take him seriously as a villain when he was foiled by his unwillingness to just win.
>>217057317I like how raspy Mike’s voice was during his narration compared to him in the rest of the show
>>217056669Perfect list. Well done.
>>217057465PURPLE RAINPURPLE RAIN
>>217057458After Eleven is done laying low in Iceland she returns back to Hawkins and gets with Mike.
>>217057458That's why I liked his ending. The only instance in the season that has some sort of dramatic weight to it. Mike loses Eleven and just has to suffer with his loss by coping through fiction. It's more of what you'd see in season 1 instead of the Disney Channel bullshit of season 5
>>217057405>>217057408>>217057427Save the cheerleader. Save the world.
This season was straight dog shit, not GoT type of ratshit, but it sure fell off type of shit.
Erica ended up seducing the poor innocent science teacher. It was brutal
>>217057459It's amusing how much of this season was just exposition and yet most people seem confused about the military and what they were trying to achieve, not helped by the fact that they abruptly disappear from the show with no conclusion after Eleven dies. Like good fucking lord, this writing is pathetically bad.
>>217056837Woof
>>217057507I love black kweens and I don't care who knows it
>>217056728Not true at all, especially in your 20's.In the first ~5 years away, you become much closer with your old friends back home when you do come back, because everyone's making a point of hanging out and catching up. Everyone's genuinely interested in what each other's doing now. The reunion bit was probably the only realistic interactions between characters in this whole series.30's? That's a different story. If you no longer live in your hometown, you're probably drifted apart by then.
>>217057500Aside from the episode where everyone is camped around a fireplace talking before the nightwalkers attack, GoT was at least still amusing like a trainwreck. This season was so contrived and boring.
He did nothing wrong.
>>217057507my waifu
>>217057531The super visible Starbucks cup killed off any credibility GoT could have had.
>>217057507Pretty GODDAMN swell
>>217057540He did nothing
>>217057554He did
>>217057526>In the first ~5 years away, you become much closer with your old friends back home when you do come back, because everyone's making a point of hanging out and catching upThat novelty dies off with each year. I remember always coming back for the holiday and catching up with my close friends, but then it just stopped and I didn't even bother telling people I was in town anymore. I only come home for family.
>>217057071>>217057109Kek how much sething is going on in the comments section? I don't have shittwitter.
This season felt like a Disney show, but with the vfx of something you see from Bollywood.
>>217056688>leaned towards himDid they cut a kiss/hug?
>>217057563Post link and I will check.
>>217057540I saw one anon say>Jamie gave his 100% to save this dogshit characterAnd I have not seen a truer statementThis dude acted circles around the cast and showed an excellent amount of range over his entire screentime. When I first watched s4, he honestly tricked me and I thought he was a good guy up until the revealHe deserved better than this lame duck, gay fuck season
>>217057573No because the fatass loser got friendzoned lol
>>217057485Idk. He didn’t deserve this and neither did eleven in my opinion. He could end up with another girl in the future but there’s no way he’ll love her like he did eleven.

>>217057583>he honestly tricked me and I thought he was a good guy up until the revealhow fucking retarded are you? he was so painfully, obviously sinister the moment he was introduced. i am legitimately shocked that anybody thought otherwise

>>217056509It's funny how they admit their black women are gross kek
>>217057459>>can't take out monsters that the neighborhood kids accomplish with Home Alone tier trapsYou can't even blame the Military for that its just the writing. The power level of Demogorgon's changes from bulletproof to a wine bottle being able to stab and hurt them then back to bulletproof.
Netlifx top 10 11/24/25 - 11/30/25Guess the country
Do you think Mike and Will will stay in contact?
>>217057689Palestine?
>>217057689oops
https://youtu.be/OfVhtY2jZnoi keep getting these in my yt feed lol
>>217057654I would do better with a 400m budget for sure, there is a reason Netflix parted ways with the Duff twin retards next project.
>>217057698Will will find someone to fill up his bussy on the regular and succumb to the AIDS epidemic, Mike will come see him on his deathbed because he was never able to move on from 11 dying and hangs on to the past while everyone around him moved on with their lives.
>>217057698None of them will, they'll make plans but something will come up or one of them will flake.
>>217057698Yes. They arent incel autists on 4chan.
>people are mad at the AI artWhy?
Solid ending, no big surprises, not a 10/10 mindblower, but they did everything they needed to do with minimal bullshit, gave everyone a little something and left on the right note. This is the weakest season imo but overall I’m satisfied and I think they landed the plane well enough. The Will scene was poorly executed and serves as a blemish similar to S2s weird side story episode, and the show was definitely strongest in its first season, but the ride was worth it to the end.
>>217056822He has a good plot line in S3, working at the mall with Robin.But the show's generally not worth it beyond S2. It's alright, but the cringe gets a little more intense and it gets a little more woke each season, and it's just repeating similar stories while adding characters. By S5, there's too many characters to care.
>>217056837Are people being retarded on purpose? She's hitting the bolt release with her thumb. She's holding onto the handle with the rest of her hand for leverage because she's probably got poor grip strength. My mother does similar shit with my pistol because she can't hit the slide release with just her thumb she has to use both hands.
>>217057758It wasnt AI.
>>217057679The Demogorgons are exactly as strong as they need to be for whatever scene they happen to be in.>when fighting unnamed disposable army menLiteral god-tier, absolutely unstoppable. No one can even compete with them. It would take a dozen platoons fully prepared to handle even a handful of them, and they'd still probably lose.>when fighting named charactersAbsolutely incompetent, anything and everything they do deals irreparable damage, demogorgon has to flee at the slightest wound it receives from any gun fired by a main character.
>>217057720meh but>guys im gaymade me laff
>>217057627Made the screenshots of top comments for you. A lot of comments with 3k likes. Basically no seething (highlighted the one I noticed)But to be honest a lot of left crowd left to Bluesky

>>217057772kek, predictable
>>217056822Nah he stays good.
>>217057778funniest thing was making will on the nose gay, they just couldnt help it.
>>217057780what a helpful anon
Finn and Millie's chemistry was much better when they were younger. Lowkey I feel like some of the kids got worse overtime. The only genuine good one is the toothless redneck the rest are C tier at best.
PLEASE DO SOMETHING
>>217057458>In my headcanon he moves in with Will and his boyfriend so he can at least live in comfort with his best friendimagine having to listen to them busting crust every nightimagine the fucking smell
>>217057811its not possible to have chemistry with a hideous yid like that. nobody is that good at acting
>>217057655>kek i gotta go look at those commentsSometimes I like diving into the minds of how human beings think, vs how they're programmed to think vs how they have to pretend to think( to not be ostracized by society nowadays). I was pleasantly surprised by the youtube comments, especially since the scene itself invokes one big WOKE wankoff, which primarily is the target audience Netflix is going for.
>>217057759I guess they should've focused more on the narrative significance of Will's coming out, because it did indeed have one, they just didn't emphasize it beyond a side mention.
>>217057811>I feel like some of the kids got worse overtimeThat's a common occurrence with child actors. Probably something with puberty and becoming more self-conscious or something.
>>217056769Eleven’s next boyfriend is (you), the viewer.
>>217057826Every single gay bottom douches. Poop coming out while having gay sex is super avoidable.
>>217057845>Eleven’s next boyfriend is (you)God, please no.
>>217057836LOL even normies are sick of ityou know norms hate it when they cant even self cencor
>>217057780is the "absolute cinema" thing a way form normies to say "kino" ?
>>217057844I feel like most of the actors, not just the former child ones were phoning it in really hard this season. I think after 10+ years of this they were all just sick of it and wanted to finally be done with it all.
>>217057867Yes. It's the same.
>>217057845Excellent!
>>217057839No, no they should have handled it more tastefully like Robin’s scene with Steve in the stall and let that be that. Putting too much emphasis on it is part of the reason it was a stumble. Do it classier, and then move on.
>>217057839It very loosely had one. The entire purpose of it was "Vecna feeds off of fear and insecurity", so Will coming out was supposed to be him regaining confidence and strengthening his resolve.The only issue is that they didn't build any reason for Will to believe his friends wouldn't accept him. It's not like the cast was even casually homophobic because the writers would NEVER let them do that. They could have had a scene here or there of them cracking a lighthearted joke, but that would be too much. So it fell flat because it felt like he was fighting against a reaction he had absolutely no reason to believe he would receive other than "WELL PEOPLE CAN BE HOMOPHOBIC, SO WE HAVE TO ASSUME EVERYONE WILL BE". This made it come off as more of a lecture about why accepting you're a fag is ok, instead of actually hammering in the narrative purpose of a 10 minute coming out of the closet scene moments before a time-sensitive, world-endangering operation.
>>217056458That shopping scene with her and Max is so cute it makes my heart hurt.
>>217057780>that vito pic with wills head shooped onholy fuck im dying
>>217057118https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8J8Ygt_t69A
>>217056417Yeah she's V tier.Or A tear and V tear but not organically
>>217056728Half of my HS friends went to the same college and they all stayed friends. I didn't because I was a loser. it was 100% my fault.
>Villain suffers no consequences for their actionsYeah, I'm thinking it's kino
>>217056728Nah, we lost one to drugs but otherwise we’re still really close more than a decade later.
>King script>Duffer as directors>cancelledSeason 5 was this bad? really weird especially with the success of Pennywise.
I'm so glad writters remembered about Jonathan in the final.
>>217057845i will never have a girlfriend
>>217057924yeah glowniggers always win
>>217057943maybe to let them focus on the spin off(s) faster
>>217057811He fucked sadie and didnt fuck millieWe're in the dark timeline because of this
>>217057844I feel like this happened with Michael B Jordan. His best work was in The Wire to me, but then again, I feel like The Wire brought the best out of a lot of actors.
>I'm so fucked up
>>217057922>friends stay friends when they go through the same experiences in lifeIt's not that surprising. It's much more strange when people hold onto friendships with people they only ever had HS in common with. Relationships are always built on common interests. Sometimes you click more with someone you meet, but there's always a commonality that brings you together initially. School friends are just people you grew up with and went to the same school with. It's not surprising people from similar upbringings have a lot of things in common that creates a friendship, but you meet people like that throughout life.
>>217057924So did the military just let everyone go at the end? Didn't the kids literally kill a bunch of their guys too?
>>217057943They have crazy good analytic data. whatever the internal targets were they missed them. The delays and budget bloat probably made them pretty tough to work with it. It's the Benioff and Weiss arc all over again.
Mike only cared about 11 the whole show and he got cucked by the US military
>>217057818Between this and the bylers’ mass psychosis Finn really can’t catch a break
>>217057780Thank a lot anon>>217057863>LOL even normies are sick of ityou know norms hate it when they cant even self cencorFascinating isn't it, especially given the amount of brainwashing and accelerated indoctrination over the past 17 years( things really felt like it started to going haywire around 2009)
>>217057627I liked Anon's edit better. The voice is actually really good in this one.https://i.4cdn.org/wsg/1766979556466748.webm
>>217057993>So did the military just let everyone go at the end?Apparently so. Guess there's no repercussions when you kill zogbots.
What was that black rock?
>>217058004I am pretty sure Netflix wants them to focus on the stranger things universe. There is a cartoon show literally coming up this year and they mapped out future projects. You don't want to create your own competition.
>>217057772No, it was a shitty Photoshop filter because hiring an actual sketch artist with a $50M budget per episode is out of question.
>>217058023spin off bait
>>217058013>Fascinating isn't it, especially given the amount of brainwashing and accelerated indoctrination over the past 17 years( things really felt like it started to going haywire around 2009)i think their totally losing control of them lol i remember 2015 talking about this dumb shit they didnt wunna listen now their agreeing with me or already know and hate it LOL
>>217058023Subtle
>>217057899Probably the closest was when Mike made that "it's not my fault you don't like girls" jab in S3, but in the context of the season, it was certainly more of a "Will is the timid latebloomer of the group" comment. But yeah it felt like they were expecting the impact of Lucas telling Max that her friends were right there for her to talk to and that she didn't have to keep her emotional battles locked up inside to carry over into the significance of Will's coming out and explaining how he was (wrongly) afraid he would lose his friends over it, which might have worked better had they called back to that (especially since I'd imagine that the majority of people watching haven't seen S4 since it aired)
>>217056403I agree with most of this, but I would put Henry higher just because of the actorThe character is ass, but jamie was fantastic
>>217057968he earned them
Loli Wheeler spiniff when?
>>217057772>this claim is falseSource? Who is the artist?
>>217057993Yup, they had them in custody, they knew that they assisted in letting Eleven get away/die/disappear, and they knew that at the absolute bare minimum Nancy popped out of the roof and shot at and possibly killed multiple soldiers.They know El killed scores of their men, which makes them all accomplices or at best accessories to their deaths.They completely and utterly foiled all of their plans, killing a couple/few dozen of their men along the way, and just let them leave because main characters.
The show was never going to have the same feeling after they grew up. That was the real challenge.
>>2170563956 7?
I know I’m gonna sound cringe but I really hope Will and Mike stay friends. They were always best friends and I really hope they get to keep that.
>>217058023A piece of the Mindflayer I guess?
>>217058040>i think their totally losing control of them lol i remember 2015 talking about this dumb shit they didnt wunna listen now their agreeing with me or already know and hate it LOLare you me?
>MUH CINEMATIC UNIVERSEStop this cancer already Hollywood, fuck off with this kike shit. We don't need 1 billion mini spin offs.

>>217058090It’s fitting for Stranger Things to go animated. Could be good.
>>217057910>He can't be part of our D&D Group anymore, that much I do know.
>>217058090Why are they making lucas a mutt instead of the vantablack gorilla nigger he is in the show?
>>217058023It's fascinating how Jay no longer looks like an Amish ogre. Good on him for putting those Patreon bucks to use improving himself, I guess.
>>217058018that voice is bang on LOL
>>217058090>not wanting a Hopper & Joyce X-Files type show in the ST universe
>>217058088its so funny lol i dont even have to get them drunk for them to go full /pol/x/ tier especially in australia which is the most dystopian controlling shithole in the western world where i am
>>217058125>bang on
>>217057811I still remember when they were a lot younger it seemed like she had a crush on him but he wasn't into girls yet so he kept rejecting her advances at photo ops kek. Bet he cringes about it when he's laying in bed at night nowadays.
>>217058152MAKE IT STOPfirst these idiots ruined mcu/dc now literally anything else
>>217057968>He fucked sadieStill no proof.
>>217058098for a 2 hour finale, i expected at least an hour of fighting gorgs, dogs, and bats. instead we got some shitty sappy crap at the end. it's like they ran out of budget.
>>217057071lol lucas turns into the token black guy from Not Another Teen Movie
>>217058018>not having your cock in my mouth is like my kryptoniteFucking kek
>>217058175ILL NEVER UNDERSTAND WHITE PEOPL
>>217058152Please tell me it's AI
>>217056728Nah, I'm still close with all my hs friends 10 years later. In fact I have the opposite problem where I don't have new friends outside them.
>>217058152And just like that Stranger things became cape shit slop.
>>217058158He didn't like girls yet
>>217058082Mike, Will, and Dustin absolutely seem like they'd be the kinds to stay in touch with eachother. If any of them were to fall out of touch with the rest of the group, it'd definitely be Lucas (and by extension Max).
>>217056769What's even more depressing is that they love Hawkins and saved it so many times and now literally everyone except Steve is moving out. Hell, three of them aren't even willing to return for their monthly meetups, they want to meet up in Philly. Wtf? That is depressing.
>>217058152>Paranormal ServicesWould watch
>>217058061They can't, because they'll take years and years. She won't be loli and will probably hit the wall by the time it goes to filming.
>>217058141>its so funny lol i dont even have to get them drunk for them to go full /pol/x/ tierBased, I'm happy for you man.
>>217058205>WillAbsolutely not, he is entering into the 90s lgbt world, his past friends won't matter anymore, lol.
>>217058241Make it anime then.
>>217058268Will was literally kidnapped, possessed and had super powers. There’s no way he’s just going to live gay and happy and completely ignore his past friends.
>>217057368Early hype build up, budget inflation and diminishing return from budget, which makes the higher ups want to finish the series fast.Most american shows start to bait viewers with "the big bad evil" even before the series start, in trailers. Eventually, when producers receive an ending deadline from the studio, they known they can't ever meet the hype they created, so they start to retcon and reduce the hype and try to finish it as fast as possible to silence the inevitable criticism.If Vecna fight lasted 30 minutes, you would start to wonder where are the dogs, the bats and etc... better kill him quickly and bury the criticism under fan service tearjerking.
>>217058268It's funny/sad how they took a multifaceted character and reduced his "where are they going" scene to drinking (and smoking?) in a gay dive bar. Like what happened to the kid who was the only one who wanted to just sit in Mike's basement and play D&D? They could've done a better job showing how he was still Will, even with his newfound homosexuality.
The scene in the mine felt like it was cut short for time or something. Felt very abrupt. So they were all going through that hole in the wall to get to the next memory, then holly picks up the firepoker and decides she's going to stay back to attack him. But there is obviously no way derek would have fit through there. They literally made a point of max barely being able to fit through. So it felt like there was supposed to be a moment where the two of them decide together to attack henry so the rest could escape. Derek was already willing to stay behind and let the others save themselves earlier in the episode, and it would have made perfect thematic sense for these two to have a moment where they finally decide to actively work together, as that has been the theme of the entire fucking show. Power of friendship and all. So when holly slashed henry in the face, I expected derek to run up and body slam him with his absolute unit frame, only for them to job because theyre kids, THEN the flashback scene where will tells him he's gay, too, just like him. Instead, holly just gets knocked out, the rest of the kids vanish from the plot until the original gang defeats the mech. Speaking of which, it seems that vecna needed the 12 kids to amplifiy his powers so he could merge the worlds together, but he did NOT need them to revive the body(?) Of the mindflayer because he did that without them in a mind trance. It doesn't really make sense what he can and cant do at this point. Plus, where in the FUCK was the actual mindflayer? He isn't a projection of smoke. He is physically a dust being or whatever. That's how we see him existing multiple times in the abyss. And the smoke particles left the kids when they got removed from the spider. Where the fuck did that smoke go and why the fuck didnt it just come down and mind control literally everyone in the fucking spidermech??The whole thing just falls apart when you think about it man
>>217058321Well that was only Mike's impression of things to come.
>>217058312>batsEddie killed them>gorgsWill killed them>dogsKaren killed them>wtf, that was all he had??According to the show, yes. That was his entire army>x bats>3 gorgs>3 doggeys>1 henryThis is the Mindflayer's army
>>217058312The funny part is that people still wondered where were the demo dogs, bats, etc
I didn't like it
>>217058312>If Vecna fight lasted 30 minutes, you would start to wonder where are the dogs, the bats and etcMotherfucker I was wondering that the moment they went to the abyss. That's their home, where the fuck are they?
>>217058385>all of my best friends will go on to live long, happy and fulfilling lives>lucas and max will love eachother forever>dustin will go to college but always hang out with his pal steve>and my faggot friend will...>idk he'll go to gay bars and get fucked a lot or somethingReal nice, Mike.
>>217058439Who did?
>>217058447A brilliant writer
>>217057993writers forgot
>>217058439Congrats, you have some standards
>>217058439That sucks man.
He deserved better>you will never have the stranger things anthology s2 with an escaped Henry from hawkins lab as a vigilantee serial killer going after people who got away with crimes by entering their minds and seeing their memories. Set in 1980s chicago with a buddycop set of detectives on the other side of the narrative
>>217058448Me. But the rest of the season leading up to it was extremely lackluster for the most part. Seasons 3 and 4 were infinitely more hype.
Thoughts on Holly?
>>217058509Going to be a smokeshow when she's older.
>>217058509Had no business randomly becoming the protagonist of season 5 besides that they might use her in a spinoff.
>>217058520People said the same for Chloe before she turned into El Globino
Here lies Eleven, she never scored.
>>217058546>>217058546>>217058546

>>217057993It's alright, it was the 80s what's a little murder

>>217057507Who is the dyed redhead?
>>217056999yeah picrel
>>217056377Whenever we see her in that black background she is projecting someplace far away. when she talked with Mike, we saw them in that black background again. so, was Eleven astro projecting? the only thing that a pokes a hole in this theory is how tf did we her get out of the truck and having no reaction to those antennas? was it an illusion too?
