Conformitygatesysters...We fucking WON
>>217196986> When you're too much of a fag even for RedditQuite and accomplishment >>217197020 This is what makes it so infuriating. It's that Hollywood attitude of: "they're idiots. They'll eat whatever slop we give them."
Nell Fisher isn't great. She has that nepo baby face and an extremely limited range because her pampered lifestyle means she's never experienced a strong range of emotions and most likely has a certain demeanor drilled into her from etiquette lessons. This becomes glaring when she's required to emote, be it yelling or trying to be emotional, and even when just delivering lines. She's the same age the kids were in Season 1 but looks like shes prepped for an Instagram photo or TikTok constantly. The other kids this season have no trouble making you believe they're children but she only gets by on her wardrobe & hair/makeup that makes her look more like a model than the 7-10 year old she's supposed to be. I have no doubt she'll be astroturfed for some time as her parents have the connections for auditions and money to pay her way in as producers but I don't see her ever reaching the heights of a truly memorable star. Instead I'm sure she'll flounder around for a year or two appearing in commercials and maybe one or two lighthearted dramas, maybe they'll pull out the famous: "girl has to live with her irresponsible but cool Dad" movie so many other young actresses have passed through or shove her in a Mark Wahlberg comedy. If she's very fortunate she'll land in a blockbuster like MBB did though that's less likely considering she won't quite have the hype behind her that she and Wolfhard did.In about 3 or 4 years when she's just about or freshly turned 18 she'll do a series of risque photoshoots, and we'll see a couple years of articles with headlines saying "Nell Fisher INSERT ATTENTION GRABBING THING HERE" and perhaps she'll get paired up in a dumb celebrity relationship and either do a sex scene or star in a raunchy comedy, but after that I imagine she'll just float around going to Hollywood parties and spending her trustfund taking random roles here and there to replenish her fun money. I don't imagine we'll ever see a timeless performance from her.

Just woke up. Did they release LA SECRET episode?
>>217197101she will age horribly like the other ST girls
>>217199264It’s coming November 6!
>>217197101She was a big downgrade
season 4 is so good
>>217197279me on the left
Stop jerking off to underage girls.
>>217197279girl center right mogs HARD
>no episode 9>general dies
>>217199938Too old. By the time they started filming she'd by like 16 or older.
>>217200392What else is there to do but Holly post? The show is over. We’ll get a little boost when the doc comes out but after that it’s well and truly over
>your ending and writing in general as regarded as so dogshit that a conspiracy takes off that there’s actually a secret ending to fix the writing from the finale >gains so much traction that people actually crash Netflix at the supposed release time >everyone realises that there’s no secret episode and that the writing really was just that shit The Duffers will never work again lol
>>217200667Yes they will, Stranger Things is their biggest show.
>>217200667>Duffers: There is a secret episode, but it happened off screen
>>217200667>you lived long enough to see Sherlock debacle 2.0: electric boogaloo>nobody even remembers and mentions that the same exact "secret episode that fixes shit ending" thing happened with another TV show because it was instantly memoryholled There won't be a single mention of Stranger Things on the internet a year from now.
Nancy and Jonathan really should have died in that goop. That would have been much bolder
>>217197101Already looks 10 years old than in the show
>>217199951Why does /ourgirl/ Winona show "fuck you" to a bunch of kids?
It should have been>military realises the threat>teams up with the gang>end battle is infantry, tanks and helicopters fighting hoards of demos and the mindflayer>this distraction allows the gang to kill vecna>no hopper, eleven and Nancy commiting murderous treason
>>217197101So how did you all like the secret episode?
She hates us :(
>>217200840That’s not Winona you blind nigag
So they released a play that retconned a shit ton and then released season 5 which took some of the play and reconnecting other shit????
>>217201452>knee bruisesUh oh
>>217201460Look it all makes sense when you realise the important stuff happened off screen
>>217200684yeah but the next one is about the lore of that suitcase rock, they've already said no Hawkins or Upside Down or any of the old cast. So Netflix is going to spend a fortune on it and no one will watch because no one cares about suitcase rock. Then they're fucked.
>>217201447I thought it was crazy when Mike woke up and said it's morbin time
>>217197101getting bogged

>>217202860They like to put down the black men in amerikkka
>>217203138No. Show's over.
>>217200802Rewatching the show, the number of times Nancy is saved by random happenings and someone at the very last second is laughably high, whether it's Steve, El or the danger just randomly stopping for no reason. She has more plot armor than any other character. She never even really gets injured.
>>217203138Threads got ruined by pedos and Indians
when is the new episode dropping?
Was there a meltdown about the conspiracy just... being a conspiracy?
>>217203590Seems like everyone is now pretending there ever was a conspiracy and are no doubt deleting posts over it. Like how they claim they never wanted to lock people in camps over the vax.
>>217197101Awful makeup
is the "laugh at coping fans who really thought there was a secret ending" thread? Where are the screenshots?

So here's how the epilouge should have goneWill now with Vecna dead realizes he is actually straight and Vecna was the gay one. Goes on to get married.Either that or someone gives Will "The Gift" a few years later at a gay bar. Realizing it is actually a curse that he does not want to spread ends his life. Lucas and Max get married and move to DerryDustin after having suffered severe head trauma throughout his childhood begins suffering seizures and needs to be checked into assisted living. Works part time at a repair shop when he can. Steve takes cares of him in his later years.Mike the story writer begins his story writers journery by getting addicted to drugs like any good writer. He writes about his experience but his books never sell as the government keeps censuring his work. Eventually unable to get over his despair and with the death of his best friend takes his own life,Nancy becomes a successful mystery novelist writing detective books. Realized she's too independent to actually listen to anyone so just took up writing.Steve had 6 kids, adopted Dustin as a ward. Became mayor. Had a good life.Jonathan serial killer filmed his murders tried to murder Nancy Steve and Robin before getting caught Joyce and Harper adopted a Korean kid to get over the loss of their family

>>217204488College. Though I heard a rumour other day he's doing some VA thing at Dreamworks this year or next.
Dropped
>>217202860He's a devout Christian.Why do you think he got less and less screen time as seasons went on.He was suppose to be the bait in the final anime boss scene but they had to shoehorn negative nancy the fearless journalist in.Pray for Caleb McLaughlin, they will try to turn him.
>>217206158Based>>217206088Chringe
>>217201447It was Kino. Joyce said sorry Will I know you were 12 when you got abducted and that you bought candy at Melvald's not shakes, and Will said yeah Mom and I remember it was raining when I built castle Byers, and then Mike said let's have a civil union Will, can't forget how they showed the gradiation scene again and people weren't clasping their hands at their crotch this time, and then there was new morse code in the tapes that said LOVE WINS, and then Mike was no longer wearing glasses at the typewriter and Nancy was wearing a tube top and a jean skirt, and then the doorknob on the door in the Wheeler basement switched to the other side
OH NO-
>>217206158>Why do you think he got less and less screen time as seasons went on.Huh? In s1 he's Mike least liked friend who is antagonistic towards the hero (11) s2 and s3 he's just Max's boyfriend, in s4 they really went all out on his story and made the black guy a basketball player, s5 he's Max's boyfriend coma edition. He never got anything to do to begin with.
>>217206369Where is Gaten's right hand?
>>217206369Why is Finn fondling Noahs ear in that picture?
>>217206397He did point out the importance of Nov. 6. Even though there is never any in-story reason that date is important at all.
>>217197207Imagine spending this much time ranting against a 13 year old white girl.
>>217197150Millie probably gave her advice.
>>217206438Oh yeah "I don't believe in coincidences" kind of hilarious when you think of the amount of stuff that just happens in s5 with no explanation.
>>217206397>he's Mike least liked friendI don't think so. Dustin even thought that Mike and Lucas were best friends.
>>217206565I meant by the audience. Though now you mention it I feel the Duffer bros forgot that fact about Mike and Lucas because from s2 on Mike and Will have known each other from preschool and share the strongest bond that keeps getting emphasised.
>>217206622Character perception doesn't mean dick. In S1 it seemed more like Will and Lucas were closer friends than they ended up being. Of the friends they focus most on Mike when Will "died" in S1, so I think them being friends the longest holds up.
>>217204518So Finn just decided to dress like a preppy rich kid from the 90s for no reason and it has nothing to do with the show?
>>217206768They filmed in Atlanta in the summer its hot as balls
>>217197101Are there cute VIRGIN girls who look like this in Easter Europe who want a kind American gentleman to marry them?
>>217206964Where'd they film the winter scenes at the end of S1 and in S2?
>>217206986Kind of hard to tell its just woods and Google is no help. It does apparently snow in Jackson where they film the Hawkins externals so maybe there?
>>217207112I doubt it snows regularly enough to film there. Probably did those shots somewhere else, which is why they were abandoned after S2 except for muh Russia arc in S4.
>>217200684WAS their biggest show

>https://archive.4plebs.org/tv/search/subject/stranger%20things%20general/page/20/This ones so shit I thought I'd go back and look at some of the early /stg/s I'd not realised how close they were to making the 10 year mark.
>>217208914I did, as well. They were eye opening. Kek'd pretty heartily when an Anons in 2017 called that the abduction was going to be an abuse metaphor and that it would be hilarious if it turned Will gay
>>217208391I thought that was a meme
>>217208914
>>217208961Yeah theres some good stuff in there and a lot of predictions ended up coming right
>>217209037painful
>>217208961>character who is called queer/fag and acts like one turns out to be oneYeah, some real quasimodos here on /tv/
>>217206413why is there two left hands?
>>217209278Some retard raised your electric bill and used 1 gallon of water to produce that.
nell is a major qt desu, almost makes me wanna watch this
>>217209259You say that a lot of people didn't notice either the character or the actor were gay as hell
>>217209345A lot of people are retarded, it doesn't make flagging Will as gay some grand prediction, anon.
>>217209278For some reason a lot of AiJeets love to do "photos" with actors from stranger things, noticed it on Xitter.
>>217209389With a certain bent to them, like our very own retarded josh freak who'll be showing up soon.
>>217197253I would be ok with a show where he and Hopper have lighthearted X-Files style adventures in Montauk in the 90s. Maybe someone from the main show occasionally cameos.
>>217197253>”Hey, teenagers who I just met, and am now getting drunk. You probably want to go fuck in the other room, huh? It may sound like a camera is running, but that’s just the pipes.”
>>217209470There would be no Steve. Bullshit. Though they did leave hints at possibilities. >make sure to note hopper and joyce will be near the kids on the coast>also make sure to include steve, nancy, john and robin will meet up once a month
>>217209517I don’t know why I forgot about Steve. Yeah, him too. Hell, him and Dustin have some kind of paranormal investigator operation going on.
>>217208914I'd forgotten how much froggo posting there used to be, also someone was trying to get a weird rivalry with the IT fanbase going
>>217209533I'd rather watch the scoop troop plus john and nancy over the other, desu.
>>217199938If they adapted this, they'd do it like they did IT. They'd likely leave out the part where she gets herself off with a pinecone.
>>217209589>she gets herself off with a pinecone.That would be like masturbating with a cheesegrater.
>>217197101The “Conformity Gate” thing was obvious bullshit, but I don’t doubt for a second that Netflix is going to treat spinoffs as a “do-over” of sorts, kind of like HBO was going to do with the Jon Snow show before that got unfortunately shitcanned. They’ll bring in new creatives, because the Duffers are clearly tapped out, and break the cast up into their own shows, pursuing their own mysteries only to gradually realize that they’re all connected, and then it all culminates in a movie or something that brings the whole crew together for a finale that doesn’t involve stabbing a big spider with knives on sticks.
>>217209589
>>217209813The only stuff confirmed for spinoffs is an alt universe cartoon staring the kids and a prequel about the glowing rock. Theres no plans for any of the OG cast to come back for awhile, and since they're all rich as shit and sound like they hate the show in interviews right now I doubt they'd even be on board for about a decade anyway
>>217209813Those how it could go. The duffers set it up for them already >>217209517I don't think any of the remaining cast is so big they won't consider it. Maybe Sink.
>>217209739His physique is tuff
>>217202860wait, oona chaplin is in this? does she show ass?
>>217209907Who knows. Yeah, they're all rich, but exposure is exposure. The way things shoot now, it wouldn't be a big deal. 8 episodes every other year isn't terrible for guaranteed work. It's not like before where a TV show had you locked down for 8 months a year.
>leaked image of spinoff series

>>217209537Cute froggo
>>217204518Finn begging to be plap
>>217209974>8 episodes every other year isn't terrible for guaranteed workFor Stranger Things it is unless they drastically change how they do it. It took a whole year of dedicated filming for s5 with the cast living in Atlanta then another year of CGI. Followed by promotion.
>>217210230I can't imagine either netflix or the runners letting things get as out of control as they did on ST.
>>217209907We’ll see about that in a couple of years when the afterglow fades, and their choices are either come back to Stranger Things, or get comfortable with spending the rest of their lives on the convention circuit.
>>217210018The Vanishing of Will Byers Part 2
>>217210142Long may they reign.
>>217210431>plot twist: will actually kills and eats jeff
>>217202860Unironically the least significant / liked of the main cast. He should have been the one they killed off but then everybody would have been like DATS WACIST so they ended up killing none of them.

>>217210680I don't think that's the jeet. I think that's some anon trolling the jeet that spams holly-josh shit. The guy who made that was probably counter-trolling.

>>217197253>After fleeing to Israel to escape prosecution, Murray was killed in the crossfire of an IDF and Palestinian insurgent skirmish
>>217200802what's even worse is they admit their eternal love for each other in a deathbed confession style, and don't immediately recuperate with a kiss afterwardsand then proceed to never be togetherit's very unrealistic for that time period
So Once Again, the Day Is Saved Thanks To The Powerpuff Girls!let's not ignore the other cutie pies
>>217211401>and then proceed to never be togetherThe Duffers in one of their endless interviews actually said it was pretty likely they would get back together down the line its just they were trauma bonded or something and had to get together on their own terms in times of peace... Bare in mind they originally got together on Murrays couch when nothing really bad was happening.
>>217211457i believe that, but not showing or hinting towards it was a mistakeno, nancy glancing back and forth between john and steve doesn't count
>>217211457They "bonded" at the end of S1. She was just using Steve for the following year.
>>217211401>it's very unrealistic for that time period?
>>217211557an independent woman who needs no manany 80s movie with female side characters ends with them in relationships if they're shown to already be in one or prior relationships are part of their backstory/development
>>217211715She ended up alone to open doors for other romances (Steve).
>>217197101She's gonna grow up and be a big star.
>>217211715Ah I see. It's funny actually because as far as I remember, I liked Nancy in s1 a lot. She was a smart girl but not a girlboss. It's also comical that besides Hopper she is the only person in 80s rural Indiana to be gun savy, especially in s5 where Hopper should have trained all of the boys in survivalism and firearms. God I hate s5 so much.
>>217211825It's a bit funny because guns were shown over and over to be pointless. More damage was done to the demos and meatflayer by axes and bats than bullets. Nancy's use of guns never bothered me for that reason. She acted badass but with the least effective weapon. I'd take that over her suddenly becoming a ninja turtle.
Fighting evil by moonlightWinning love by daylightNever running from a real fightShe is the one named Sailor Moon
>>217211939>characters go to le abyss without being armed with a case of molotovsI hate s5 so much, man. They had 400-500 million dollars, they should have given us RotK-tier shit
>>217212005Forgot the pic
>>217211825Child Will can fire a gun and hit a target. which will come in handy when its time to hunt Dahmer
>>217212020I'm not even talking about the abyss. Even S1 had Steve with the spiked baseball bat. He didn't defeat it or anything, but it slowed it down more than Nancy's revolver. That's kind of my issue with Nancy and the guns. By S5 she should have realized they're useless against these beings. I just wish there was more friendly fire issues or something like in It Follows.
>>217197101Due to Pedo coomers, this bitch will be put on a pedestal and obsessed over for decades despite aging like shit just like Maisie Williams, Millie Bobby Brown, Chloe Moretz, et cetera.
>>217211825exactly anon, now you see my point. despite being set in the 1980s, a decade in which the duffers barely experienced, it's written much more like a contemporary piece.
>>217212370Was ST5 even eligible for this? It only finished last week.
>>217212091Oh I agree. The characters are retarded. Because the Duffers are.
I genuinely wonder how s5 would be received if it was released all at once. By the time vol 2, stuff from vol 1 that was kind of cool like the trap for the demo and Steve chasing it into the UD was a distant memory. Not that s5 isn't a blueballing piece of shit as is but I do believe it would have been received much better without them constantly gutting the momentum.
>>217212473I think it'd have probably worked better if they'd done 7 and 8 both on New years. That way Christmas ends with Max waking up. And the Wills coming out storyline doesn't have a whole week to fester.
>>217212419ST can't participate. All nominess:https://goldenglobes.com/nominations/2026
>>217212534no matter what Will admitting he's gay wouldn't have gone well, primarily due to the show dragging its feet on his hidden homosexuality for two seasons, but also the dragging out of the reveal scene itself, something season 5 constantly did. there was no positive way to spin it.
>>217212534Can I upload a rant/rewrite video to YT via a recording from vocaroo? Because those videos are inevitable. I saw one earlier, actually. But the uploader was doing deep scary voices for vecna/mf and playing stock epic music in the background so I found it annoying.
>>217212681>there was no positive way to spin it.Intimate scene with Joyce, Jonathn, and the four boys seems the common sense approach. And also directing Mike to not look vaguely disgusted and not directing Lucas to look bored as fuck lol - the fags also got angry that Will was all put coerced to come out as gay via a dilemma Vecna put him in, so I guess as Hopper, Steve, etc. are preparing for their incurison, Will does it of his own accord because he doesn't know if they'll come out alive. The very fact I have to write "incursion" annoys me, because they have to first do it through the military base whereas what they SHOULD have done is make the military controlled by Dr. Owens allies in s5
>>217212681>no matter what Will admitting he's gay wouldn't have gone wellThe initial plan was for him to just tell Joyce and have Mike overhear so a bit more like the more intimate Robin and Steve one in 3. For some reason they decide it wasn't big enough scene (award bait maybe?) and did the tell all Hawkins one instead on the basis Vecna might use it against him in the final battle if they didn't know. Which he never actually does making that pointless. The first plan was much better.
>>217212754>And also directing Mike to not look vaguely disgusted and not directing Lucas to look bored as fuck lolliterally impossible given their natural facial features kekwhat annoys me is mike seemed to be aware will was gay in s3, when all will wants is to play d&d while lucas and mike are going through cunny withdrawals, but here in the finale he's like "oh shit he wants my cock in his mouth"
>>217212888>"oh shit he wants my cock in his mouth"Yeah he never actually makes that connection its him Will was into according to the Duffers. He only ever really apologises for hurting him with the don't like girls comment which is presumably why he's still got Wills painting of gay love up in his college dorm.
>>217212888Given the 80s context and they were like 14, seems he was shitting on Will for being behind the curve. Was not adult enough yet to like girls
>>217212754I wonder what the deal was there. Surely Reiser wasn't too busy.
>>217212974The Dufffers retards? Shit, season 5 is so bad in my eyes that I almost am willing to give the brothers the benefit of the doubt in that many BTS factors absolutely fucked them in the ass and the purported budget has some caveat to it. S5 felt as small as s1 for fuck's sake.
>>217213006I'm 100% convinced the advertised budget includes marketing. The is no fucking way that amount of dough was spent on the show itself.
>>217212966ah yes, more inconsistencies with the show's writing and not equating itself to its setting. the more i think about this show the more i realize the duffers are writing hacks that got lucky with visuals and casting.
>>217197101>14yo>already walled Dios mio.
Oh nonono
>>217213133
>>217209813It's going to be like House of Dragons or Fiona and Cake. Nothing interesting will happen, and they'll just insert even more queers and blacks. After nine years and about 20 episodes Anons will gradually give up why hope and wonder why they bothered in the first place while shills go: "But dont you want to KNOW why Guadalupe was so frightened when she looked into Jamaraquis's closet (Jamaraquis is genius level first generation immigrant from Somalia who's lifelong goal is to be a more successful skateboarder than Max Mayfield because muh racism) tune in to the new season dropping Summer 2047 to find out!"
Eric Butts review is up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-YcfFhYSEw
>>217213218I'm not giving you a view, ericbutts.
>>217197101Why does she make /tv/ seethe so much?
>>217213218the review starts at 1:38:00
>>217213218how much does he cry in this review?
>>217213117Like I asked earlier, can I upload a rant to YouTube via a vocaroo recording? I have many thoughts and a deep voice.
>>217213133This man's cock is about to be devoured by black kweens
>>217213218wtf happened to him?
>>217213359eating is his coping mechanism for desperate weeping sadness
>>217210278They'll curb the budget and effects (people forget Stranger Things is the reason Netflix got respect in the first place so they threw money at it) but it will definitely still be an "8 episodes every 2-3 years" situation. We'll NEVER get yearly releases from Hollywood again nor 24+ episodes per season either. Heck, 13 episodes is asking too much these days. I think this might trigger a domino effect. ST is what MADE them and was the silent warrior keeping them afloat because regardless of screw ups people still wanted to see the next season of ST. Now its not only over, but the ending was terrible. People likely won't want to rewatch it, at least in it's entirety. They won't be able to coast by on mediocrity any more. Can anyone point to one other thing they've done that's gotten the acclaim Stranger Things had? All I've seen is frustration at their output. Gone are the days of cool Netflix "uncancelling" shows, now people dread that more than anything because they know the new season is going to desecrate it's corpse. For original content it's been lackluster intersped with anger at unexpected cancellations because they werent "successful enough." I think the public is going to start looking more harshly at Netflix than ever before and unfortunately, this time they wont have Stranger Things to save them, regardless of spin offs. I also sincerely doubt they'll have any other unexpected smash hits, as I just truly don't think Hollywood is capable of it anymore. They would have to do what they did with ST for that to happen: bait everyone with a White (or seemingly White) cast that appears to be down to Earth and Middle class people having cool and non-woke adventures before gradually slipping in the lame stuff no one likes. Nowadays regardless of how important it is they'll lead with disabled black Muslim lesbian girl boss main characters and refuse to cast a straight White Man in any significant role so it will flop no matter what they try.
>>217213359>wtf happened to him?What do you mean? He looks as awful as when he did the reaction that made him a meme
>>217211457More psychiatry nonsense. None of that is real.
>>217197101Damn that old hag already hit the wall
>>217212142That's why we've got to nip it in the bud. They've done this too many times now. If they see the coomers don't like her she will flounder and stagnate.
You know what baffles me about ST? The fact they never reused this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l86q-ksvDdw&list=RDl86q-ksvDdw&start_radio=1 In later seasons. It was an amazing theme for the UD
>>217212683Wtf are you asking permission forJust do it faggot
>>217213690Nah I am asking if it works like that. If I can make a video and do it via vocaroo. Not asking for permission.
>>217213846You have my permission to do this
>>217213343nobody is stopping you, just put it in a video program so there's a black box to count as the video
>>217213690>>217213846P.S. I found a vocaroo of myself via searching the archives where I read out a warwickposting pasta. Wanna hear?
>>217213156You know if/when they do a spinoff show that acts as a semi-sequel to this, there's going to be an episode called "Conformity Gate". You can mark my words on that.
>>217213972>Conformity Gatewhy is called this ?
The only songs season 5 had was Purple Rain by Prince and The Trooper by Iron Maiden which are both kino but used to be there’d be an entire album’s worth of 80s classics.
>>217213583I think the closest they've got is Wednesday, but it's nowhere near ST and I think had a fall in S2. I enjoyed it, but it seemed hype died down quickly. ST had a lot of lightning in a bottle going to it. It launched the nostalgia boom, then grew in strength before ending strong with S3, right before covid shut everything down. Then I think it started crumbling under its own weight. However zany S3 got, it still captured the show pretty well. Everyone still had something to do even though everyone was split and it ended very strongly. Everything after just felt tacked on. Like the last two seasons of Buffy, kinda. Duffer's prequel will flop. Guaranteed. Not just because of the damage to their rep, but no one cares about the rock. No one cares about boomers in retirement homes, either. People want to relive their youth and young people want characters to identify with. In all seriousness, the safest sequel would be Holly and her group in the 90s. It'll never be the phenomenon of the original, but it's about the only thing that might fly.
>>217213893Go
>>2172140061. Eddie’s mention of conformity killing the kids in 4.2. The initial thrust of the theory came from how odd it was that the main group became that which they didn’t like.3. Autistic butthurt Bylers like it because muh straights
>>217214159Tiffany was the most appropriate. But the problem is everyone knew it already. Prince, it was poorly used where they did it. Iron Maiden worked, but I wouldn't call it special or anything.
>>217214207https://vocaroo.com/1dKYj6IKAB8x
>>217214163>It launched the nostalgia boomit didn't launch the nostalgia boom, but it did skyrocket it to an unprecedented level
is there even any more nostalgiacore out rn
>>217197101I wish makeup would be banned.
They just totaled the Turnbow house and kidnapped the family without any consequences.
>>217214818I chuckled they left the family in the barn with no food or water. And didn't tell Derek what they did ever.
This is the type of show that will definitely get a legacy sequel series in about 20 years where the main cast are all parents and their kids start experiencing Stranger Things™ and WOAH ELEVEN IS ALIVE!!
>>217214159I was disappointed by how little Metal they had in the show, even in S4. Another song or two would have been good.
Speaking of music, you guys notice how much they phoned in the score since S4? I remember when the show began the score was often brought up when praising the show. It was a solid, charming little score. I personally really like the score from S3 as well. From S4 on it felt like an afterthought and I can't even recall anything remarkable about it after that point.
>>217215075I agree, I touched on it here:>>217213678
>>217215108They have a nice little remix of that one in the S3 score (admittedly not as good as the original) but from there it completely vanishes. That's one of the more iconic pieces of music from the show too. It's obvious everyone was a little tired of the show by that point but holy fuck it's like the composers completely stopped giving a shit at all.
>>217215075The needle drop stuff got more hype
Stop teasing the schizos Dufferbroshttps://x.com/nightphanges/status/2009408491878855167
>>217215190I get that, but it still seems like a bizarre decision to almost completely sideline the iconic score just because the licensed songs get more of a pop.
>>217215075only song worthy of note is the main title desu
>>217215173In my reimagining of S5 I picture a nice world of many strange plants and what we perceive as an ancestor to the demogorgon before a rift in space and time rips open as the shadow essence of the Mind Flayer flow forth and we hard cut to what he/it has done to that world. When the portal appears and the docile demo ancestors cower like cute dogs, the UD theme begins. Hard cut to what resembles the UD. The implication being that the MF has done this before and will do it again on Eartth
>>217215322Definitely disagree with that. I actually think that's one of the less interesting tracks, though obviously it's iconic at this point. There are a few very memorable tracks in S1 and some other pretty good ones, then S3 reuses some of those memorable tracks and adds some interesting new ones. I think they're good scores and the abscence is very noticeable to me in S4 and S5.
>Jonathan unproposes to Nancy>ring is thrown and presumably left>Hopper has it laterHow?
>>217215376Vecna won anon.
Im finally watching the season and im on the very last episode rnAnyway, havent watched old seasons since, well, they were released, didnt bother with any refreshing, so ive forgotten lots of shit about it.What im trying to figure out right now is, why Eleven is so much special, compared to all the other freak kids? Did they explain this in the older seasons?
>>217215448They "explain" it in this season. You must've missed it. It's not much of an explanation though. They just say something like, for whatever reason, she came out most like Henry when she received his blood through her mother.
>>217215435That's my assumption but usually bringing up any plot holes like that gets me blasted with "byler faggot" as if having criticism automatically makes you some homo shipper
>>217214818The Turnbow family is dead. That's why Derek is with the Wheelers at graduation. He lives with them now.
>rewatched the climax of s2>a season many fans shit on>borderline shocked over the soul poured into that vs s5
I want to compile a list of all the plotpoints the writers just forgot.
>>217215376>howAren't Hopper and El in the same room it was left at some point? I don't know if he's shown to pick it up, though.
I like how people either jump to the conclusion that the ring must be some kind of sign of a secret ending or try and explain how Hopper canonically found it rather than acknowledge that the production just reused the prop.
>>217215943Is it even the same ring? I don't think Hop is so cheap as to find a ring then get a box for it. Agree, it's not meant to be the same ring, even if it is.
>>217215998There is absolutely nothing in the show to indicate that it's the same ring. It's just the same prop so people thing same prop = same ring canonically.
>>217216069I don't even know if it's the same prop. All that shit looks the same unless you spend a bunch of money. It's a gold hoop with a small stone in it.
>>217215752Season 2 hate is 20% the one Chicago episode, 75% “not muh season 1!!!!!!”. Season 2 is a good follow up and a good season.
>>217216121Indeed. And the ending with the mindflayer looming over the school is kino.
>>217212142Nell Fisher outacted EVERYONE this season. She's naturally talented unlike your fave a child actor who will grow up into an adult she has a HUGE career ahead !!!! S h u t the F u p you irrelevant mother f u c k e r!!!!
>>217216158PEAK
>>2172161211 only is the purist one-and-done option that only accepts the peak of the franchise.1-2 only is kinda schizo because if you accept 2 you can probably accept 3.1-3 is the option for people who like the kiddie Spielberg stuff, a fun conclusion and a solid trilogy.1-4 is a good stopping point for people who want a big bad and a resolution to Hopper, it’s tonally different but the characters all get stuff to work with, works as a good dramatic conclusion.1-5 is really only for completionists, 5 does the bare minimum for wrapping it all up.
>>2172163791-3 is the show. Everything after is needless. Characters like Eddie and Holly are enjoyable, but the damage 4-5 do to the lore and other characters totally offsets everything. The end of 5 copies the end of S3 almost beat for beat. Instead of Mike, it's Hopper. Lucas and Dustin give the DD game to his sister. Hopper sacrifices himself instead of El. The gang all splits up.
>>217216194>vecna is controlled by the mf>it changes nothingIn otherwords, they should have presented MF as the arch villain and Henry as the right hand man from the beginning in s4
>>217216477The issue is the retcon that El blasted him to the UD to begin with. It doesn't make sense.
>>217215739Gives him easy access to Holly and a "hot stepsis" role, I like it
>>217216444Understandable opinion. I actually prefer 4 to 3, but 4 is a big tone shift and if you just want the show to keep its identity 1-3 is a safe recommendation.
>>217215373if you ask randos to identify ST music they won't recognize anything beyond the main theme, this isn't the rains of castemere type music here>>217216477they did, the first thing the group determines is that the MF is the ultimate boss and Vecna is dishing out shit on his behalfthe nonsensical idea that it was vecna all along is incorrect, it was vecna on orders from the mf>>217216534nothing prior to showing the massacre ever suggested eleven sent vecna to the upside down, the upside down was created as a result of eleven sending henry to the abyss/dimension xyou fucking idiots really need to learn what retcons and plot holes are before you throw the terms around so loosely
>>217216663>if you ask randos to identify ST music they won't recognize anything beyond the main theme, this isn't the rains of castemere type music hereI disagree. They'll recognize a couple of the tracks like Kids and the Upside Down theme.
>>217216663>nothing prior to showing the massacreSo you acknowledge the massacre did say that AND that it's a contradiction since the UD was created on Nov. 6 (before it's later retconned again in S5). What's more, in S1-S3 the gate is the weak spot that allows the MF to move in Hawkins. Suddenly Henry can operate at will. Why didn't he do it before? Just 'cause. The injection of Henry into the mythology disrupts and breaks it.
>>217215376It just looks the same (because they didn't bother with buying a second prop)
>>217216807what the fuck are you rambling on aboutprior to s4, we think eleven caused the massacre and know nothing else about itwe don't know when the UD was created prior to s4/5 confirming the UD was created when eleven zapped henry to the abyss, never was it created on november 6, november 6 is the day that will was taken after eleven found henry by touching the demogorgonthis isn't a retcon at all you stupid nigger, it's called a dramatic revealjesus fucking christ a child can figure all this shit out and here you are having an autistic meltdown because we didn't get all this info day 1i can't tell if you're being obtuse on purpose or actually are this fucking stupid, either way i'm wasting my time responding to your idiocy
>>217214163Yeah, Wednesday fell off pretty hard. The second season was just objectively bad and didn't deliver on anything. I don't even mean fan they're wise, like they didn't even commit to the kooky goth Tim Burton aesthetic it looked like a CW show 90% of the time. You could watch a random scene and think it was Arrow or Riverdale or something. Huge misfire. And that's without getting into that they released it in the Summer instead of around Halloween like you would think.On top of that her love interest for popped for date rape or something IRL so they had to just him out completely and act like he didn't exist as well as Word of God confirming they weren't ever going to do the lesbian plotline with her and Snood, which while based, annihilated all of the shippers in one feel swoop which really took the wind out of the sails of an already mediocre season. Season 3 isn't going to get a lot of views (especially since it won't come out until like 2029) and unless it's an amazing course correction I think it will wind up being it's last.
>>217216929NTA but there's no way you're pretending vecna didn't retcon the entire series and make it retarded. Vecna is like a textbook example of "writers make something up later and try to retroactively fit it into history but it makes no sense".
>>217216929>never was it created on november 6Nancy's diary ends on Nov. 6, the same day the rip is shown to happen. You didn't actually watch the show, that's your problem. You think screeching and insulting is going to make you right when you're wrong.
>>217214211> how odd it was that the main group became that which they didn’t like.This part slays me because it didn't happen. Everyone did what they wanted to. The only thing is Mike and Nancy sort of dress like their Dad now that they're grown up professionals and "they obviously hate their Dad and never wanted to be like him." That was never even HINTED at. They're all just Redditors so they projected that because they hate their Fathers and also Ted is a STRAIGHT. WHITE. MALE. so he must be hated by everyone lol
>>217216807Very true about the gatesIn s1-3 the gates were so important that the mindflayer couldn't do shit without them open. After El closed the gate in the kino s2 finale, his dust particles laid dormant until the ruskies began cracking open a new gate under the mall. And even then he had to create a flesh monster first because he himself couldn't really affect anything in hawkins without control over people like billy and stuff.Then, in s4, suddenly henry is able to not just open gates but open a gate larger than there ever was before that spanned across the entire town. And we're expected to believe he was there the whole time. This makes him and the MF retards for not just immediately cracking open the earth asap
>>217216929Retard
>>217216992there's nothing to pretend abouts1-2 the mindflayer was connected directly to will and tried to have him taken directly, but it didn't work outs3 a piece of the mindflayer was able to survive eleven's purge and started to rebuild itself using hostss4 vecna is sent to directly deal with merging the worldsmaybe it's technically a retcon but it fits well within established parameters, this isn't "somehow palpatine returned" levels of writing
>>217217028You didn't watch the show.
>>217215448Vecna killed all the other kids and wanted to make El his child bride
>>217216973Killing the Enid/Wednesday thing was so bizarre given how they fucking force feed it in everything else. I can only assume Ortega refused to do it and they're making it seem like a creative decision. NF always claims these foreign shows do well, but I don't really buy it, honestly. You never see them operate like they do with their quantifiable successes like ST. No massive promotions or staggered releases.
>>217217019ok so the ud is created on november 6, big whoopnot a retcon, it wasn't the same day that will was taken, it was a few years prior>>217217033yes henry was there all along, dispatching demogorgons and demodogs thinking it would be enough, then the mindflayer and henry figured out the way to bring about the merging of worlds meant his direct involvement, also while letting their power grow strong enough that it could be doneyou people really don't understand storytelling at all
>>217217061You're insane lmao.>this isn't palpatine returned levels of writingIt's actually worse. It's "somehow vecna was a powerful psionic that has existed this entire time yet somehow was never seen or heard until now despite being the mastermind of everything" levels of writing.Like if vecna existed the whole time why in the actual fuck in season 1 did a demogorgon kidnap will and take him to the school that looked and acted like a spider nesting area and pump him full of demogorgon larva then leave him there?
>>217216160See >>217197207
>>217217061S1-S3 the mindflayer was only able to do anything in the real world because the gate was open. At the end of S2, El closed the gate as the MF was literally reaching through. The Russians were opening it with their ray gun in S3 which is how the meatflayer worked. When hopper blew the gun, it died because there was no tether to the UD.Suddenly in S4 it doesn't need any of that. Also it's shown in S3 that the MF recognizes El from S2. If Henry was already there, this moment wouldn't be needed.
>>217217061Vecna retroactively being there the whole time breaks the show in several ways and you refuse to acknowledge itWill spent a week surviving in the UD without being captured by the mindflayer and vecna because ???At first it made sense logically because the demogoron who first attacked will was just trying to lay egges in his tummy. Then the mindflayer showed up and said "wtf is this shit?" Finding out about earth and began probing into it to see if he could take over. That's what the vine tunnels and dogs were, him scouting earth while opening the gate to enter and start flaying niggas. After El closed the gate, it became personal for him because he knew she had a way to stop him, so he deliberately targeted her.All of this, up to the end of s3, makes sense from the perspective of two worlds coming together. The villian's motive, while remaining ambiguous, still make sense with his actions. If suddenly you DrAmAtIcAlLy ReVeAl (retcon) that the mindflayer has known about earth since the 50's, has knkwn about eleven, etc. The whole time, then his and henry's actions in s1-3 are retarded because they dont fucking fit with their plan to merge the abyss with earth. There was no need to spread the vines. There was no need to make a fleshmonster to attack el. They could have killed four people, timed that exactly with kidnapping 12 kids, then immediately begun the merging worlds without anyone being able to react in time or figure out what the fuck was happening. If henry existed in s1 and the plan was always to merge the worlds, then the villian and his top guy are crazy stupidThis ruins the show
>>217217172> it was a few years priorIt was the day El touched the demogorgon. That's when it was created.
>>217217174Not to mention WIll not remembering the fucking faceless dude talking to him. When you start your season off with a retcon, you know you've got problems.
>>217217172You are the one who doesnt understand storytellingThe abyss did not exist until s4/5They did not plan this out from the startS1 was supposed be a single finished storyA hive mind did not exist before s2You have fallen for their tricks and are as stupid as the fluffers
>>217217172holy shit youre dumbthe last journal entry in the diary was THE DAY HE WAS TAKEN you fucking retardit was created on the day El made contact with the gorg. not when she sent henry to the shadowrealm years ago. you didn't even watch the show youre defending so vehemently. IDIOT
>>217217250right, i forgot the russians cracked the gate open again>>217217253henry only chose children that had latent psychic abilities, so no he couldn't fucking pick whomever he wanted, as all the local psychic children were dead on his account you stupid niggerhe had to wait for brenner to start up his experiments again and find hosts that would workit's like you people don't even listen to the dialogue that explains the logic behind their actionsthe mindflayer couldn't do shit without vecna, they worked in a symbiotic meanss1-2 is their first attempt at gathering children, starting with will, s3 is their attempt to bring eleven to their side, s4 is vecna saying fuck it and taking action personally
>>217217309i didn't say they had it figured out all along, they admitted to creating henry/vecna between s3 & the playi'm saying the retcon of adding him being there all along fits in better than you keep attempting to claim it doesn't
>>217217357>henry only chose children that had latent psychic abilitiesWhat the fuck are you talking about? What latent psychic abilities did will have? Chrissy and the nerd kid with glasses had latent psychic abilities? All of the kids in S5 like holly and derek have latent psychic abilities?
>>217217075Name even one time Nancy or Mike expressed a negative opinion about their father
>>217217357>henry only choose children that had latent psychic abilitiesThis is never, not once, said in the showIt also does not make sense whatsoever with the s5 """"""lore"""""" because latent psychic abilities don't exist outside of the mindflayer. Henry had psychic abilities because of the mindflayer's testicle which entered his bloodstream. The children in the lab had it because they were made with his blood (another retcon from the original premise of the sensory deprivation tanks) you're telling me 12 kids in this random town all had latent psychic abilities despite not having any connection to henry at all?Fucking retard
>>217217357>right, I forgot the russians cracked open a gateFaggot, you have been here defending a show you dont even remember massive plot points ofShut the fuck up
>>217217419>Chrissy and the nerd kid with glasses had latent psychic abilities?no, that was vecna opening the gates to connect the abyss to earth for the merging, that was a separate rituali'm talking about the 12 children he abducted, those kids have latent psychic abilities, henry literally says it to them
>>217217357There's no way someone as stupid as you existsYou're baiting
>>217217459NopeHe tells them theyre special to manipulate themExplain HOW they would have latent psychic abilitiesGo on.
>>217217357> Henry only chose children that had latent psychic abilitiesWhen was this actually stated?
>>217217491It wasn'tHe's making shit up
>>217217469When something is shit, there is always a contingent of people that try to prove themselves smart by trying to bullshit it into making sense.
>>217217427>>217217469>>217217490>>217217491you people are such dumb fucking niggers it's hilariousnext time turn on the subtitles when you watch a show so you don't miss any detailshttps://comicbook.com/tv-shows/list/everything-we-know-about-henry-creels-origin-before-the-stranger-things-finale-including-the-stage-play/>During the early episodes of Season 5, it is revealed that Henry has been appearing to children as “Mr. Whatsit.” He uses this seemingly innocent and kind facade to identify and kidnap children with latent psychic abilities. This explains why Will Byers was his very first target in 1983; Will was a test subject to see how a human host could interact with the Abyss.GO FUCK YOURSELVES YOU RETARDED NIGGERS
>>217201452Why does she hate The Phillip DeFranco Show?
>>217217491It wasn't. Both he and Will suggest it's because they're young and gullible. The only indication that he might pick someone for being special is Holly, who he called the brightest of them and he was preoccupied with.
>>217217459You mean the bullshit vecna was peddling to the kids while pretending to be a good guy saving them from an evil monster? You actually believed his lies he was telling the kids to make them trust him? Dude you going "well of course this all makes sense, because the duffer brothers told me it does!" is bad enough but you not even being able to understand a character being obviously deceitful is insane.
>>217217543>>217217544retard alertyou think it was random that holly or dipshit derek were picked? nope. the entire point is that after henry's disappearance, brenner started up the experiments again because he still had henry's blood, or possibly used eleven's blood to duplicate the results.
>>217217616>you think it was random that holly or dipshit derek were picked?Yes. That is literally exactly what happened.You're just posting random schizo shit now. You think people like will and holly secretly had henry blood infect them off camera before the show started?
>>217217524>source: some dumb bullshit on a websiteNeat
>>217217616CoolShow me the scene where brenner began crawling through people' chimenys like some kind of santaclause and Inject kids with blood
>>217217726>source: some dumb bullshit on a websitethe source is the show itself, jackass. the website just packaged it into a form that's more cohesive than my autistic ramblings>>217217768probably will happen in the spinoffthere was something about brenner using drugs as well, synthesized from the infected blood most likelybut the setup is in the main show
All things considered, this was a pretty cool show.
>>217217895Things got pretty strange, but I enjoyed myself.
>>217217996I shall admit I nearly turned it off when Will said "at last, I have become the Stranger Things".
>>217217616He picked them because they were weak and impressionable, he literally says that. The psychic abilities are what he's giving them when he pumps them full of Mind Flayer tentacle cum. What the abilities actually do, who knows. Probably opening more/bigger rifts.
>>217216121I just think it's pretty slow, and once things finally start getting interesting, you get *that* episode. Of course, this can easily be fixed by skipping it. I watched it again this time since I couldn't remember if there were any important parts in it, but there really isn't. But it's the closest to the first season in terms of charm and atmosphere, so for that, I really appreciate it.
