I was 1 year old when it ended in-universe, but I've never watched it, I've been cooming to Millie and Sadie since the first season if that counts

Just didn’t feel like the finale to me. There weren’t any real stakes, the villains were dispatched with ease, the big emotional death happened after the conflict was resolved. Even the big military plotline that the show started with went absolutely nowhere at all. Season 4’s finale felt more like the last episode of the show than this did.

I guess I wouldn’t be so upset if I didn’t genuinely love season 1 so much. These characters didn’t do much at all by the final season and this is basically the last uber-popular TV show of this type that we’re gonna get in our age of short-form video slop. It’s the end of the road and it felt so empty.

>>217058760
Problem with that is that, first, the body was already there. Vecna was using it as his base the entire season, but there were still monsters as late as episode 6.
Second, it used the same strategy in season 3, but had the good sense to leave Billy unabsorbed so it could have a smaller unit in play. So it's dumber in season 5. Even one little demobat would have more value flying around than adding +1 to the boss' hitpoints.

I watched season 1 all in one go drunk as fuck on a friend's couch after everyone else had gone to bed after a house party. I must have been in my early 20s.

Literally why the fuck didn’t they just have El losing all her power when the Mindflayer /Vecna died, giving the military lady no reason to pursue her anymore. Could’ve spent another 10 minutes in dimension X and just have it be confirmed that because Vecna tried to merge the worlds Dimension X got ripped apart or something when the spell failed

If they’re going to have a 0 stakes happy ending except this one character who has already ditched everyone by choice, force or circumstance 3 times disappear AGAIN. They might as well just go full happy mode

their new plan is to find and catch all the rocks/dust that escaped from demogorgons etc and remains in this world

By looking at the chemistry between actors, the press tours and shit like that you can tell Millie doesn’t have a good relationship with anyone in the cast besides Noah and that shit translates into the screen.
Habour and Winona seems to be on the same boat as Millie.
Finn, Caleb and Gaten all seems great friends irl, Noah hangs out with them but he isn’t as close and those 3 are between them, plus he was being avoided for a while thanks to his zionist drama.
Saddie seems to be great friends with Finn and Caleb and maybe less so Noah
Joe Keery is great friends with Charlie Heaton, Natalia Dyer, Finn, Gaten, Maya and the fat kid who plays Derek, the dude seems to be a fucking magnet since everyone loves him, Finn in specific admires Joe.
Natalia is also friend a with Finn and is obviously getting married to Charlie

Eleven is totally dead. She already planned everything out (told Hopper how to Cope, made the story up knowing Mike is into using escapism to cope as well). She knew she had to go back to where she came from to balance the universe.

The thing is, it probably will fuck with Mike if he unironically believes it, knowing Eleven is hanging out with a new family and dealing with the intrusive thoughts that El is sucking another dudes dick on the reg.

They should have shown Hopper bullying Henry, and being the reason he became a vilain.

>>217058841
This reads like two guys who don’t understand their character and are stuck in the seed of their original idea of Season 1. Season 1 El was the representation of childlike wonder, combining ET with an Akira child and thrusting her into the world as a fish out of water/magical girlfriend trope for Mike worked and worked well. But starting in season 2 she began a trajectory away from the Eggo eating innocent stranger and towards growing up her own way. From sneaking off to be with her rough and punky pajeeta sister, to fooling around with Mike, to hanging with Max and being independent, to confronting her past and embracing her role as a hero… she wasn’t that cute alien anymore, she became a woman, a real girl Pinnochio style. Her final scene with Hopper is her directly spelling that out to him. I’m fine with her choosing to leave Mike and Hopper, however it went down, but I don’t think it’s accurate to say she represented childlike wonder anymore. Her choice was, itself, an attempt at maturity.
Though, it does seem a bit odd when you draw parallels between her anger at Hopper being ready to die for her when she was ready to do the same for everyone else.

>>217059293
They should've made an animation or found some other way to summarize the play or something, because as it stands, the old Hawkins High scenes just feel like unresolved plot points.

I guess Mike has to solace of knowing that, if she is indeed alive, she will always compare said Icelander unfavorably to Mike.

Are these goons even affiliated with US gov/intel? Main cast all openly know significant state secrets

And there's no way 008 survived being shot and the nuclear explosion from the "exotic matter" at the lab. And even then we know her powers aren't strong enough to maintain an illusion for that long at that distance.

>Spend the entirety of season 4 building up a new villain and then establish that the old villain didn't really exist and was just a proxy for the new one.

Getting shot was an illusion. She had already started heading away from the lab. She was much closer to them to put up the el illusion.

He literally just graduated high school he's 18 and writing a book there's noting indicating that he spends the rest of his life alone. Plus him and El totally banged off screen so he'll never be a wizard.

most kissable 12 yo award
burned the coal award
cucked a fat white guy award

All of the Vecna/Henry shit is just carried by Jamie. He seems to be unaware that his character is just shallow nothing in a show that doesn't care about things like writing, because that man is performing as if his life depends on it while most of the other cast just turned up for the paycheck and can't wait to go home.

>>217059813
There was nothing to Mike’s character after season 2 other than that he was Eleven’s boyfriend. Nothing at all. Changing that was the only way to make the show feel like it had a sense of development

>El had no nosebleed despite using her powers
>El had no problem using her powers despite the kypronite
>El was able to stand still in 100km/h winds
What Mike cooked up might not be 100% what happened but all the hints point to El not dying at least.

Mike looks at the speakers at the graduation ceremony which reminded him of those antennas that prevent Eleven from using her powers and then he had a look like he realizing something. there are no coincidences in this show. Eight also told Eleven her story doesn't have to end like hers so they probably planned the fake death while Hopper was getting to them, and she pretended to be dead so Hopper would believe she's gone because that was part of the plan. They couldn't let Hopper know about what they were planning.

It's actually really similar to GoT. All the characters got bad endings while the hero got to fuck off and live free for once in their life.
Way better ending than Breaking Bad where hero dies and all the traitorous fucks go unpunished.
Fuck it's so rare for a show to even get to an ending. Most are absolute shit by season 2 because they are just pumping propaganda into anything that was accidently successful.

El is dead. If she’s not dead and the theory is true that 8 used powers to fake an illusion then the writers are retarded. 8 was last seen in the Hawkins building, that’s where they left her. The first fucking place to blow up and be destroyed by the bombs was that building. She’s blown to bits and yet can still use her powers to create an illusion of El?

The whole discussion scene between Mike and Hopper about grief, acceptance and moving on wouldn't make any sense and the whole meaning behind the last scene between him and El would be stupid since she was basically just lying to him, lol. The ending is simply way better if she is dead and at least it means someone fucking died because holy shit, having that amount of characters just to not kill anyone was a fucking pussy ass move from they gay brothers.

The bombs and dark matter collapse don't actually damage the building, we see the shockwave blast by the church even and it doesn't damage it, what actually destroys everything is the wormhole walls collapsing and the vacuum of space sucking everything into the void, and since the lab was in the middle of the wormhole it would be the last place to be destroyed
