Hello. I've never seen this show but I can't escape the memes. Is the coming-out scene actually during a time sensitive end of the world event or is that made up? I don't see anything wrong personally, but if someone is in danger or stuck in the upside down whilst this is happening it's pretty hilarious.
>>
>>217071784

What if the alternate realms weren't destroyed, just the EVIL within them?

Think about all the scientific knowledge exploring the two realms would yield.

Or at least, the awesome Dungeon and Dragons cosplaying sessions. You're IN a cosmic realm!
>>
>>217071784
Hopper straight to the point.
>>
>>217071815
>how
The question is why. Why take a cool monster and make it a joke. Seems clear the Duffer's got bored with their own creation. By 5 they realized they could never live up to the hype and just said fuck it and didn't even bother to try.

Vecna said, "I don't control it. It doesn't control me. We're one."

Hence the FUSION of the Mind-Flayer motif AND the Spider motif.
>>
>>217071815
This body is ptojection created from dust. The original body is the spider that you in the Abyss.
>>
how was vecna gonna go powerman 5000 and make the worlds collide? doesn’t sound believable
>>
>>217071857

Seriously, who knows what would could find in those realms once the monsters were exterminated?
>>
>>217071896
No, it isn't. There is no abyss.
>>
>>217071864

I'm just mad they blew up the Upside-Down and the Abyss. They've WON already!

Now explore that cosmic shit! Go Metroid!
>>
>>217071815
This is the real mindflayer, and >>217071848
this is his shell. He isn't even dead, just needs a new body.
His dimension isn't even gone, either, just the connection between the two. It isn't even gone forever either seeing how it was created by matter that more than one group has access to.

In theory, now that the evil has been destroyed, the creatures will return to an individualist state.

We saw that with Dart.
>>
>>217071852
Its not exactly like, they need to sctamble to move NOW. But yes its right before their final epic mission. Maybe they were gonna go to bed and tackle it in the morning, but it was still totally unfitting. They try to justify the speech by saying that the gay character needed to come out in order to have the courage to fight the villain, but it comes out of absolutely nowhere that this would be the case and honestly just feels like a rehash of IT.

First time I've posted on 4chan and like 6 months and holy fuck, do you said humans seriously sit there and wait 60 seconds and complete 3 obnoxious captchas every time you want to make a post? Jesus Christ what a fucking cesspit. And as if that has raised the quality of posts in this place? Ridiculous.
>>
>>217071852
In terms of the plot, Vecna, one of the main villains, uses peoples' secret fears/shames to weasel his way into their minds. By getting his secret out in the open, discovering that his fear (and villain-induced vision) of being shunned by his friends was unfounded, and ultimately having the support of his friends, Will, the one who "came out," was denying the villain this power. It makes sense in the plot that he came out when he did since it was shortly before the final battle, where Will's power would be needed, but I guess for some viewers, they didn't really place enough emphasis on how this coming out really denied the villain one of his weapons (the villain's propensity for doing this to other characters was one of the key plot points of season 4, but given that said season was now 3.5 years ago, I would imagine a lot of people didn't really remember it)
>>
>>217071984
Could have been as easy as having an army of demo bats and dogs having an epic battle with the army forces who are trying to stop the gang, ironically Vecna protecting the kids
>>
>>217072041
>Vecna, one of the main villains, uses peoples' secret fears/shames to weasel his way into their minds
Just to be clear, this is a post hoc rationalization and is never once mentioned at all until the subject of will having to come out first arises

not enough budget for that sorry, gotta launder and pocket those 400mill instead
>>
>>217071896
They look nothing alike and also we've seen him be a cloud of smoke in his home planet twice.
>>
>>217072041
Vecna had to show Will that his friends will lie to him that they accept him, and will look for ways to ditch him over the next years.
>>
>>217072105
If they were being honest they'd just admit they didn't care about the battle or mythos and just wanted to fast-forward to the epilogue.

Understandable, really. If you know no one is going to die and there are no stakes, writing and filming that shit, trying to make it last an hour, would be boring as fuck.

The molly ringwald cosplayer is offensive to look at. Like she makes my eyes water. Such an ugly ginger.
>>
>>217071984
This is dumb. The last time they got Vecna in season 4 it was because of this exact mindset. Why would he make the same mistake twice? Shouldn't he have learned that they will probably go for the place where he's in a vulnerable meditative trance?
>>
>>217071896
I don't think so. I think Vecna was helping it build itself a body out of corpses like it tried to do in Hawkins out of rats and humans bodies. That's why all the creatures are gone.
>>
>>217072226
overbearing mother archetype, no wonder my poor boy Dustin is the way he is
>>
>>217072166
that blonde bitch bully below Hopper was goat
>>
>>217072099
Not really. In the prior season, all of Vecna's targets were seeing the school counselor and suffering from some sort of secret guilt.
>Chrissy's weight/body image issues induced by her mother
>Fred's guilt over the car wreck he was in, where another kid died
>Max's shame over her feeling that maybe she actually wanted Billy to die, and that maybe she could have/should have done something to try to save him
Max refused to talk about it or any of her feelings with her friends, becoming distant and resorting to writing secret letters to each of them, culminating in Lucas reassuring her that all of her friends are there for her and that she should just talk to them about how she's feeling.
>>
>>217071952
Yeah we see the dust still active after the kaiju dies.
The kaiju is just a bigger version of the flesh monster we got in season 3.

>>217072296
Yeah, I'll admit I actually didn't remember that. But If they really wanted to reinforce that point, they should have shown how the 12 children also had trauma. It wouldn't require much time at all, just a couple lines about a few of the kids. It's all just very arbitrary.

He hated humanity so his plan was to destroy the entire dimension. It's extremely retarded.
He said he got far more powerful since their last time meeting, so he could've literally just killed every human with his same powers he used in S4 but way faster. Why put all the effort in to destroy the entire dimension? It's such a stupid Marvel-tier threat, too.

>>217072492
I guess the revelation that he was at least partially a pawn of the Mindflayer makes it so that his personal disgust with humanity was mingled with, or at least fueled by, the intentions of the Mindflayer. Had it just been Henry, perhaps he'd have been satisfied with just fucking with and killing random people, as opposed to wiping out Earth all at once.

They have tech to open gates to the wormhole bridge (upside down), but only in America where L opened the first gate. With the wormhole gone they can't do shit.

Even after coming out, Vecna could still use that against Will. He could try to convince Will that no one really accepts him, they just need him and his powers now. That if WIll kills Vecna the only reason his friends keep him around will be gone.

But Vecna didn't even try, he just let Will attack him. If he tried and Will fought back it would make the coming out scene more meaningful and feel like it was actually necessary imo

I'll do my best to try and fit Vecna his overall final goal into the 1st 3 seasons.

Season 1
>Kidnap a child to use as a battery for his powers
>Let the demogorgan fuck around in Hawkins as a distraction i guess?
Season 2
>Possess Will and use him as a way of further opening the portal between the abyss(the upsidedown at the time) and im guessing if the Mindflayer had made his way through the portal it would have merged the worlds?
Season 3
>Possess Billy and use him build a corporeal form for himself/the mindflayer in Hawkins to effectively enact his grand plan but from the otherside
>We can assume had they won the mall fight they would have worked to open more portals to bring the abyss into Hawkins
Season 4 is obviously where Vecna actually enters the story so its pretty self explanatory from there.

Vickie: who knows, a pretty weird omission since they made a big deal of her and Robin's relationship
Argyle: presumably still working as a pizza boy in California, maybe a manager now
Suzie: presumably still living with her family in Utah; relationship with Dustin likely ended due to distance and her parent's dislike of Dustin's influence
Lonnie: still living with his girlfriend; S1 tried to make it clear that he only really started to care about his family again when he smelled lawsuit money
Max's mom: presumably still an alcoholic single mother
Owens: this one was pretty ambiguous, I guess left as such in case they'd decided to use him in S5; they didn't, so I guess he was murdered in S4
Dmitri: in Russia, presumably working on his relationship with his son
Yuri: perhaps trying to return to the honest life he'd lived before becoming a smuggler
Hawkins officers: I guess still police officers; pretty big omission, given how present they were early on; kinda surprised they didn't give them some sort of little throwaway cameo at the end, would've been easy since they showed downtown Hawkins returning to normal
Keith: I was fully expecting him to show up at WSQK, considering he was friends with Robin and was the stereotypical teenage nerd who worked at nerdy places, but no, so I guess we can assume he's still working at Family Video and/or the arcade
Derek's family: another weird omission, given how last we saw them, they were drugged

Season 1

>Scout is killed and child recovered
Season 2
>Mindflayer makes direct attack
>Uses Will to dig the tunnels so its vines can spread through the town and secure the gate
>L shows up at the end and closes the gate
Season 3
>Need L's power to re-open the gate
>Infects people and creates a flesh monster to attack L and steal her power
>Flesh monster is defeated, but the attack is successful
Season 4
>Armed with L's power to open gates the mindflayer starts opening as many as he can
>This succeeds and the gates become unclosable
Season 5
>The mindflayer tries to merge Earth and the Abyss to end things once and for all
>Needs more puppets to strengthen its power so it nabs some more kids and builds a giant body to guard against recovery missions
>Kaiju is defeated, kids recovered, and wormhole closed, cutting off access to Earth
>>
>>217073159
I take zero issue with her turning into a /k/fu because they set it up from s1 and the progression was natural for her. It's completely believable she would go to gun ranges and practice. She even owns her own guns. Where it crosses the line is her refusing to let others have them or share that training with them. It's the end of the world and she gives her brother and flare gun? Cunt.

Shit makes no sense. When Steve fell I thought he was going to be pulled up by the Abyss own gravity but it doesn't seem to have gravity (or the air gets pressurized when the two planets approach, nothing makes sense, really). It's somehow coherent with Holly falling from the Abyss tho.

Interrogate them to see if they were harboring anymore physics-defying entities? Ask how she even got her powers? You're assuming the military would just give up all their questions after the ultrapowerful being "died". Maybe it teleported?
They have literally no idea and are guessing at every turn. It'd be stupid not to exploit an entire group of people for answers to questions and possibly attain those powers for themselves, as for all they know, the gang has the keys to whatever got Eleven those powers.

And this is a retarded reveal
It would have been better to have henry as a total psychopath who killed all the other kids of his own volition and then met the mindfucker and got subsumed. Then there could have been some debate as to how much of his psychology "infected" the mindflayer because he was the first human that was assimilated. Iike, imagine if someone like argyle was the first one assimilated. Maybe the mindflayer would have been, like, a really chill dude, you know?
But no. Instead henry is a vessel and his actions arent his own even though he says they are

Not only is the Military letting them go weird with what we see directly, but the magic space rock being a conspiracy implies that the Military were messing with this stuff before Henry. Which means it doesn't really end if El dies, it's just a bigger set back; so they would absolutely not want people who know about it, and are actively working against them, to be walking around free.

The spin off is already said to be about the rock, and there's no way they can stretch a story about it long enough for a whole season without a Military conspiracy. It's the writers go to tool when they need to pad time.

Mike still has options left to find her. Why does he insist on staying an incel in the end?
>>

>Why does he insist on staying an incel in the end?
Because that would mean the Duffer Brothers would actually have to put effort into the show
>>
The ONLY way the military would have let them go is IF another faction of the military led by something with SENIORITY over Sarah Connor said, "This is nuts. We're shutting down the program for good. Our NUKES can stop the Russians."
>>
>>217074422
Because she's dead. They even came out and said if on the off chance she does survive she'll never go near Mike again because she'll put him in danger. This is all just one big cope from Mike to invent one small chance he didn't make a bomb that killed his oneitis.
>>
I stopped watching whenever they introduced those cringey crustpunks in s2 or 3 or whatever. Is the rest of the show like that?
>>

Should’ve had Dr. Owens make a last minute appearance to do that.

Oh, and have her played by Signourney Weaver . Put Ripley and Burke on the same side, lol.

I've just finished watching season 3. Finale felt like Resident Evil with underground facility and giga mutated monster. Nancy? started becoming Claire Redfield suddenly.
>>
>>217074534

They'd pin it all on the Colonel, wanting this whole thing to just go away. Throw her under the bus.
>>
>>217074325
Hopper also pissed off both Soviet and American government
He would have to go hide in China or isolated Latin American country as a mercenary if he wanted to avoid getting summarily executed

You mean one of the main characters of the film.
Anyways, her character wasn't "gun girl." There just happened to be a gun on hand.
>>
>>217073222
The Upside Down was a wormhole, and on the other end was an alien planet which is where the Mindflayer, Vecna, and the other monsters were coming from.
>>
>>217074494
They only said this because they realised their open ending didnt work out as hoped, so they threw in a last sad effort to make it bittersweet. Everyone got an unrealistic happy ending and now suddenly its unrealistic for Eleven to ever contact her family


We need that evil dr Brenner-Wheeler spinoff NOW
>>
>>217074593
The soldier right there would want retribution, their fellow men were just killed by these two individuals, one of which has no consequence at all as he is legally dead. Why would they not want them dead. Just look at how ruthless they treat the gang when they capture them.

they had full intention to kill all of them
>>
>>217074623

Random in the sense she just suddenly went, "I'm a badass gun girl now!" in the horror film.
>>
>>217074649
And yet, not a single monster in sight after the MCs got there
>>
>Mike gets Mind-Gooned by Eleven thousands of miles away every night he goes to sleep
Lucky bastard
>>
>>217074483
Or maybe the kids outsmart them, either by exposing or threatening to expose them to the public. Heck Nancy wanted to be a reporter, maybe she had a contact at a newspaper and sent some evidence ahead of time.
It's cliche but ANY reason would be better than what we got.
>>
>>217074483
This is something that would’ve fit with the shows writing. However, they really wanted people to keep discussing the ending so they made a weak effort in making it open ended instead.
>>
>>217074655

Well that's NOT the ending we got. So now we gotta figure out the why, and the most plausible explanation is that the majority of the military declared the whole thing "OVER."

Swept under the rug, hands washed clean.

Why do tourist complain now about Nancy when she has been Claire Redfield master of guns since season 1?
>>
More of them should have died.
>Steve gets mortally wounded and Dusty runs over trying to protect in a reverse Eddie scenario
>Will gets killed when Vecna gets killed
>Nancy shoots her guns in a final stand where she won't give up as she gets torn apart
>Jonathan (mortally wounded) delivers the final disabling blow after watching Nancy die
>Eleven and Kali both die the way they die
>Back in the MACZ the survivors are caught as they come back
>Sarah Connor wants answers and executes Joyce because Jim "Hop" Hopper won't handover the girl
>In a blind rage Jim "Hop" Hopper detonates himself and Sarah Connor fulfilling his suicide mission
>Murray, Mike, Rockin Robin and whoever else I didn't mention all survive
>>
>>217074741
>Instantly forgiving the people who murdered your comrades and would have murdered you if you had been in their post.
You clearly don't understand how people in the military think at all.
>>
>>217074741
Swept under the rug means tying up loose ends. Like a gaggle of teens who know all your secrets. If the people of Hawkins don't question military occupation they're not going to question when they weird group of kids die in an accident.
>>
>>217071883
> "I don't control it. It doesn't control me. We're one."
Translation: they realized retconning the mind flayer into Vecna all along was dumb but that they couldn't reverse course this late so they went with both are true
>>
>>217074666
She doesn't look very bad ass. She looks like a person who picked up a gun out of desperation
Nice trips bye
>>
>>217074767

I understand the actions of the soldiers would be pretty easy to interpret as something called a "WAR CRIME".
>>
>>
They should’ve included a scene with a horde of demos fighting the crew and having Will go super saiyan and killing the entire horde.
>>
>>217074782

And what kind of accident would be enough to wipe out such a diverse bunch of witnesses?

Dang, if only he actually fought Vecna instead of Eleven doing it while him and everyone else just stood around trying to emote for the camera. Literally pointless.
>>
>>217074834
Its convincing until you realise Millie is actually stood on Sadies ass
>>
>>217074767

I also understand militaries LOVE to do after-report reviews, and in those reviews they might find some pretty disturbing conduct of the military personnel involved.

I mean the stuff with the pregnant women alone has got to be crossing some ethical boundaries.
>>
>Dustin talking during graduation about how all the shit that happened in Hawkins got the school together
>last time we saw anything significant from Hawkins HS it was the jocks beating the shit out of him

Yeah I know most of them graduated before the speech but it's still kinda fun, in every season school was the fucking same. Remember Lucas and his fuck my nerdy friends phase because he got a taste of the sports chad life?
>>
>The Mindflayer likes the cold
>Lives on Arrakis
No wonder he was so angry, poor little guy…
>>
>>217074956
Maybe it's a cold desert. The meddling kids don't break a sweat on the journey.
>>
Okay, so what exactly would these angry soldiers say?

That in the commission of some ethically disturbing behavior well within the realm of War Crimes, we attempted to capture a girl to further the commission of even more probably War Crimes? That civilians attempted to defend this individual from being seized by force, seizure which is legally DUBIOUS at best?

I'm not really sure how strong the military's prosecution case is, when you get right down to the genuinely disturbing details.

Ugh. A more PLAUSIBLE explanation is them breaking Vecna's control over the monsters, causing them to no longer obey his orders.

We saw with Dart they are capable of individualism.

He leveraged his sheer bulk falling backward. That's a lot of weight for Vecna to try to lift, lol.

The speech sounded like it was written for an entirely different show
Infact, hawkins itself felt dead as fuck this season
Every other season it felt alive and like an actual place where people live
>s1 the entire town banded together to try and find will
>s2 had pleanty of scenes like the highschool party and trick or treating. Also the arcade where everyone came together
>s3 was focused around the mall as a huge gathering place for everyone in the town
>s4 the entire population FINALLY got riled up enough with the hawkins curse to attempt to do something about the evil lurking beneath their feet
It was full of crowds, one-off side characters, locations that made the town feel alive. Hawkins itself was a character. In s5, beyond the first episode at school, the town virtually dissappeared completely and all that existed was the main cast, the military, and the upside down. The people of hawkins did nothing about the Butthole of Hell opening up on their front lawn. They just let the government quarantine them at gunpoint with no objection. They let the government corral all of their kids together didn't even put up an argument. Hawkins didn't feel like a character this season. It felt like nothing. And that's something I havent heard any people mention yet, so I'm not sure if it's just me overreacting or if people just havent noticed it with all of the other glaring problems in the season
>>
>>217073649

I think Henry spoke the truth when he said, "We don't control each other. We need each other." Sick human meets sick abomination.

Alright, who phoned it in the most in this season?
For me it's Winona Ryder, she looks bored half the time and most of the other half it seems she doesn't want to be there

She had fucking nothing to do man
In s1 and s2 she was actually present and affected the plot
Atleast season 3 gave her a magnet schizo arc. And she was important to her s4 sideplot, but that entire sideplot was fucking garbage. In s5 if she had not been there at all there would have been close to zero difference

In s3 he continued to to use billy even though he had a meatmonster. He did so because he thought having a normal human size body could be an asset. His downfall was underestimating the love Billy had for his mom, which gave him the stregnth to break free from the hive. The gorgs, dogs, and bats are not the same. They would not have betrayed him (except maybe dartanyon, but we dont talk about him). Thus, his downfall was stupidity for not using all of his assets in his war

Following an awkward lovemaking attempt with Robin, Vickie realized vaginas are gross and married Steve. They have 12 children referred to as "the little Harrington's." Robin refuses to speak to Steve to this day.
>Argyle
After his supernatural experiences, Argyle pursued a quest of higher meaning andd wound up the third in command of a hippie sex cult in California's Wine Country that was raised by the ATF for illegal firearms possession and underage sex trafficking. While in prison, he converted to Christianity and now runs one of the world's largest and most extreme conversion therapy programs in San Francisco with the backing of Ziklag.
>Suzie
Suzie's parents forced her to dump Dustin before sending her on a Mormon mission. She escaped in transit and made her way to Hawkins, only to find Dustin had a new girlfriend already. Heartbroken, she moved to Texas where she became the host of a public access call-in program called "Raw Time" under the moniker "Tiffy." Following the cancellation of Raw Time, Suzie married a devout Southern Baptist and now lives in a cattle ranch with six children. Her parents maintain they don't speak to her while secretly visiting multiple times a year.
>Lonnie
Following his girlfriend's incarceration for possession of mthamphetamines, Lonnie assumed custody of her estranged 15 year old daughter, Tammy, who has coincidentally ran away from her Father's home two weeks prior, hitchhiking to Indianapolis to live her with her Mom. They were married within the year and now have the children. Tammy's Mom is still upset about it.
