Ah yes, Vecna's magic rock. A good story for another time.

Gotta watch the next 10 years of sequels to have the ending to the ending, okay?

If they had tried you explain it you would have thought the explanation was stupid and unsatisfying.
It's ok to just let things be some things be a mystery.

>>217073237
>Don't worry, it's better to have a plothole than actually explain what it is because the explanation would suck
Brutal that we have come to this type of thinking.
>>
>>217072423
stranger things would've been a cult classic if they just dropped vecna in as a mysterious demon and never explained his origin. they somehow managed to make him legit terrifying in season 4 with the grandfather clocks and shit. it all got ruined once it turned out he was some incel government experiment.

It's not a "plot hole" to just not explain everything you information-addicted zoomer

Don't criticise Israelflix. Shut up and kiss the wall goyim

Yes, it is. Quite literally the entire reason the show even happened is not explained.
That's called a plothole, lil bro.

That's what having insufferable nerds nitpicking every single frame of every movie and show on reddit and 4chan does. Don't call it a grave, idiot.

>>217072568
The spinoff is going to be exactly about this, you'll have a lot of more episodes to bitch and complain about, bro!

>>217073512
>an inconsistency in a storyline that goes against the flow of logic established by the story's plot
Yes, the entire reason the show even happened is quickly and forcefully introduced at the very finale. With no explanation and just expecting the viewer to not question how it got there or why.
That is a plothole, as it expects you to accept that it just is despite there being more loose ends with it introduced than not. It should've been just a piece of gold in the suitcase and again, not a mcguffin.

What was the logical inconsistency? You keep just saying that they didn't explain everything. That's not a logical inconsistency, you just want all the information spoon fed to you.

Nice projector. How much did it cost?

>>217073677
You are the one asserting it's a plot hole. So what was the logical inconsistency that makes it a plot hole?
>>
>>217073695
I was going to explain that before you went apeshit. Looks like you'll have to research that on your own, as I don't want to spoonfeed you information. Good luck, lil bro.

didn't watch
is this like in YYH when Kurama fights the rock monster and steals his heart rock?

That's why it is anti kino. D&D is the death of Art.

Apparently it's at least partially explained in the play, which you either have to see in person or read about.
https://strangerthings.fandom.com/wiki/Stranger_Things:_The_First_Shadow
>It is explained that Brenner's father was the captain and sole survivor of the USS Eldridge experiment, who returned to the normal world with significant injuries and a unique blood type. Upon learning of this, his son Martin devoted himself to learning the truth behind the incident and established the Nevada Experiment, an attempt to reproduce what had happened to the Eldridge.
>However, one of the personnel stationed at the Nevada military base was a spy for the Soviet Union. They managed to escape while stealing vital technology, transporting it to a Nevadan cave. At this time, an 8-year-old Henry and the Creels lived nearby, in Rachel, Nevada. While exploring the Nevadan caves and playing with a spyglass, Henry stumbled across the stolen technology when it unexpectedly activated, transporting him to the Abyss.
Despite it supposedly being canon, just from reading this summary, there are blatant contradictions to the TV show, so I guess it's a pick and choose sort of deal? Either that, or the vision we were shown of Henry's childhood in Hawkins was just a fabrication, or a lie fed to him by the Mindflayer (which would be a fucking awful retcon, imo)

As per usual, the fan theories give the Duffer Brothers too much leeway. I would say they just fucking suck at writing and have terrible inconsistencies.
Also, making it so you HAVE to see a limited-run play that has vital information to your multi-million dollar show known globally is retarded.
Again, the mcguffin literally adds far more plotholes than removes. They should've kept it at some schizo in a cave with a briefcase almost killed henry, leading him to his first kill which traumatized him and made him a completely different person.

There will never be a satisfying explanation for the origin of this shit you idiots. It's pure fantasy. At some point they just have to end up at
>it just magicked into existence
what other explanation could there possibly be? So yes you might as well just leave it as a rock found in a briefcase of unknown origin. There's never going to be a better origin than that.
>>
>>217072423
So uh, was this the scientist who left all his work in the upside-down lab?
This was the source of henry's powers? He wasn't born with them. No one on Earth was. Henry then went on to live a normal highschool life, interacting with joyce and co, and then uh ended up in "the lab" as a watcher over the kids they created from his blood? Why didn't they all just touch the rock? They didn't need his blood.
>>
>>217073237
They aren’t doing that though, they’ve already announced the spinoff show about it
>>
>>217074244
i'd explain my explanation but it's so spooky that i think i'll create my own story with it and use it for a video game or something

Fuck this show
Linda Hamilton is in it but does very little and has no story arc
Hours of far too many characters dumping exposition on each other, or making extremely elaborate plans that need to involve all of the far too many characters
A fucking hour long epilogue
Nothing bad happens to any of the main cast
What a fucking cop out

No one will remember anything about this show in a year.
ZERO cultural impact.

There was some in S1-S3, but 4 and 5 really fucking ruined it by getting rid of all of its roots in favor for an MCU style story.

No it's like when Raizen takes control of Yusuke's body to kill Sensui, but if Yusuke was like "yeah, I'm fine with that."
>>
>>217072423
Pretty dumb asspull plot turn considering Stranger Things started out leaning heavily on the concept of old conspiracy theories such as the government testing and training psychic abilities in children. That was like the main attraction in S1. Instead they turn here and say it was le magic rock that gave cooties to Henry which made him magic. It just shrinks the worldbuilding.

It’ll be a prequel you absolute gremlin

poor writing. copying the pennywise magic rocks from IT
