Stranger Things (Netflix) TV Show • Page 44

Finn Wolfhard was hilarious in It, the only kids that were better than him in that were Beverly and Eddie iirc

 

What do I win?

 

Not sure if anyone has said this yet but the arcade in Season 2 is called The Palace.

smh

 

Did anyone else think the season could have had the exact same end result had max and billy not been introduced at all?

Did they serve any major role other than just simply being new characters and billy sort of being an antagonist?

That's one of the only things about this season I didn't quite get, it just seemed like new characters for the sake of new characters.

 

they were definitely the weakest and least developed characters I felt. and their mysterious family storyline didn't really have any payoff. but billy did kind of feel like the classic Stephen King bully, maybe that's all he was meant to be, idk.

 

I think Steve switched to a 'good guy' roll, so they needed to fulfill the need for the HS jock.

 

Bully was very specifically just a stephen king type human villain, what Steve would have been if he wasn't likeable as hell

Max created division but that could have been handled other ways, the arc of her not believing seemed kind of forced

 

I still can't get over how much I love the dynamic duo of Dustin and Steve, hoping for more of them next season haha

 

Dustin is easily my favorite character. When he goes to Mike's parents and tells Mike's dad that he's no help at all, I was laughing so hard.

 

"No one else was around. Why else do you think I'd be hanging out with Steve Harrington?"

 

Probably my favorite aspect of this season.

 

Dustin has the best one liners. Another great moment was when he finally got the demodog in the cellar and said "i'm sorry.....but you ate my cat."

 

I laughed out loud at this as well. Really loved him ushering his mom out of the house so he could go run and get into his hockey gear in preparation for battle. I'm about halfway done.

 

Honestly, Lucas's sister made me laugh harder than anyone this season.

Nuh-uh!

 

I was just dying watching this kid clean up the room like a murder scene, scrubbing the bloody rug with bleach and shit lmao

 

Anyways, finished the season last night. Really enjoyed it, but I felt the ending was too rushed/solved easily.

 

I think maybe I just over analyze, but when Bob was just like, "oh that looks like a lake i've seen, that means this is a map, that means we have to go here, let's go!" I was like, wait really? That's all it took?

 

the vines=perfect map of Hawkins was easily the weakest thing about this season to me lol

 

And why was Bob working for Radio Shack? Dude should be developing for IBM or some shit lmao

 

I think this show could benefit from having a few more episodes per season. It would flesh out our characters a bit more and make jumps like this a little more logical. Also, I’m just a big fan of when tv/movies have a lot of space/room to breathe.

 

JUSTICE FOR BOB

But really, he was an absolutely fantastic character whose demise was handled very poorly

 

Yeah I read, your post earlier (I think it was yours), it made no sense to show that he left the gunif in the end it wasn't going to matter. It would have been way better for you to think he was gonna make it and escape with themand then have what happened happen.

 

Also, maybe again this is me just being way overly nitpicky, but another issue I had was that 11 seems to choose when she wants to not understand words or what people are saying, and when she wants to be able to fully comprehend people and have full conversations.

Like Hopper had to literally spell out the word compromise but in several episodes like when she goes to see her mother shes just chatting away with the caretaker lady.

Idk, I hate to nitpick because I really did enjoy it but certain things were just like mmmm heh?

 

Yeah, that was me. It’s just frustrating because it is such an easy thing to fix. They went out of their way to tell us he was going to die and that just didn’t work for me.
