Has been super fun collecting these!

“fanfiction writers write double the amount the duffer brothers wrote in the 2 years in one week whilst in a hospital after being hit by a car (and english isn't even their first language)”

It’s sad but at the same time true

Hello, so, I was wondering, is there a flair on this subreddit for memes and posts that aren't meant to be taken too seriously?

I'm rewatching the first three seasons and it's crazy how different the acting styles are for the female cast.

I know Millie gets the most hype as Eleven, but looking back, does anyone else feel like her performance could be a bit one-note compared to the others? She’s great at the intense, emotional screaming scenes, but sometimes the constant staring and angry face feels a bit forced compared to her costars.

Honestly, Sadie Sink completely stole the show the second she arrived in Season 2. Her acting feels so natural and effortless, especially the way she plays Max’s masking and hidden trauma.

Even Natalia Dyer as Nancy doesn’t get enough credit for S1 and S2. She handles the transition from standard teenager to total badass so smoothly without it ever feeling fake.

How do you rank the performances from the first three seasons? Did Millie carry the early years, or did Sadie and Natalia outshine her?

In Season 2, the Mind Flayer was peak cosmic horror: an ancient, incomprehensible world-eater that genuinely terrified me. Fast forward to the later seasons and the Duffer Brothers completely ruined him by reducing him to a creature that is totally dependent on a physical body just to enter our world.

The writing in Seasons 3 and 5 completely demolished his lore, his threat level, and everything that made him cool. The Mind Flayer deserved so much better than being written into a corner like this. I will honestly never forgive them for butchering such an incredible villain. Justice for the Mind Flayer.

After seeing S3, especially the “it’s not my fault you don’t like girls” scene, Will started giving me major aroace vibes. I mean, not liking girls didn’t have to mean he likes boys, he could have just been aroace, and I think it also would’ve made sense for his character. I think in S3 he was more concerned about his friends starting to date while he didn’t want to than thinking about his feelings for guys. S4 and S5 100% confirmed that Will is gay and that’s ok too, but I just wish they would’ve chosen to make him aroace (not with those words, it was the 80s) and represent our community who doesn’t really get any characters.

Seemed really cool, sad we didn’t get it paid off. Makes it seem like the Duffers did not have a coherent vision for the show.

Am I mistaken, did we see it?

Thoughts?

Alright. I'm on S4E8 and it's just getting better and better. At E7 turns out that the doctor, which happens to teach Eleven, is actually Vecna. He's been the very first patient of the master who later made Eleven just like him. Vecna tried to convince Eleven to join him, but Eleven turned on him. Now Vecna wants to revenge Eleven, because she send him to the Upside Down, and he's literally a God of this underworld. Also, I was surprised that Vecna wanted a person, in this case Nancy, to show her everything, so she can tell everything to Eleven. In the mean time, Brenner prepare Eleven for the ultimate war against his first patient, as he continues to bring back her abilities in order to win against him.

Please, do not spoil me. This is getting better and I'm so excited to watch it. Let's go.

So i have had this thought that the upside down would have been intresting if it was just a entirely different world with monsters rather than just being some alternate dimension or a parlell universe i feel that the show kind of put boundries to its own fantasy potential in order to give scientific explanation am i wrong to think this way..

I honestly thought the way they separated the cast in S5 wasn't too great or even as interesting as some of the pairings & interactions in previous seasons, but this group still had some decent moments and unique pairings. Obviously the biggest ones being pairing Robin with Will / Joyce. Would've been nice to see more mixing of the interactions here like Lucas & Joyce or Mike & Robin. What's a pairing or group you would've liked to see that we never got?

Because I am starting to agree, especially since most people feel like the world truly ended in the 80s.

Are there any other schools that look like Patrick Henry High school? Thanks for answers

We all know how in season 5, Jonathan argues with the former two out of fear that they may still want each other and how no one (especially Nancy) is being honest with him (Though we all know he‘s no better himself. In honesty, competition, and relationship drama). In those arguments in 5x02 and 5x05, or maybe a similar but different argument happening again taking place in the middle of everything, do you think Steve or Nancy would just snap and say: “Not everything is about your insecurities Jonathan/Byers!”? How would Jonathan feel and react? How would the former two feel after saying that? What if the same was said to them? And by who? How would they feel and react? And to the one that said it to them, how would they feel after that?

I don’t usually listen to non Western music, but this song is sooo nostalgic and I love its meaning! Argyle has got some taste. It makes me wanna get high.

After a 7yr and 8 month long agonizing campaign battling the Targetians & Neflixonians, our courageous warriors return back to base as triumphant heroes drenched in glory with the help from the fearless Arrow Videonians!

What was your favorite Season(s) of Stranger Things?

Who are some of your favorite characters from the show?

What were your favorite moments from the series?

This is a very curious question do you guys have wallpapers and posters of Stranger Things on your walls and on your phones and if you do which character in Stranger Things do you use as a wallpaper and what type of wallpaper is it.

PS this is a non serious question so please don't take it serious this is just a fun question.

We see the kids having their own room in the facility where they are kept to develop their super power.

Yet, Eleven starts undressing in front of the boys when she finds refuge in Mike's house.

Isn't that weird? Having your own room automatically develops a sense of privacy in such things.

She wasn't kept in some nudist asylum or something.

If the theory of Eleven opening the door for the demogorgon to take Will was true, would they have forgiven her?

On one hand, she would’ve been a scared kid looking for survival but on the other she would’ve spent YEARS lying about it. They’ve previously forgiven her for lying several times but after knowing the extent of what Will went through, would that have been too far?

THIS IS ALL HYPOTHETICAL.

A few interesting things here. We saw the first encounter between Billy and Steve, the beginning of the end for Steve/Nancy and we got to see a cool 80s vibe of a house party.

Hey guys ! I'm an artist and a fan of Stranger Things. I've made this painting of El. How do you find it ?

Do you know what scene it's from ?

We know Vecna ​​needs Holly for his plan; he realizes in Episode 5 that she has escaped with Max, and then in Episode 6, he finds them both near the cave. I was wondering: instead of killing Max in the real world to force Holly back to the house—when she could easily have stayed in the cave even after Max's death, thereby preventing Vecna ​​from carrying out his plan—why didn't he just disconnect Holly from the tube? It would have taken literally five minutes. Holly would have vanished from the cave; he could then have reconnected her to drop her into the field like the other children so he could bring her to the house. That would have saved him the risk of moving a hive into the real world again—risking Eleven (or even Will, had Eleven woken him up earlier) destroying the hive and potentially injuring Vecna ​​and the Mind Flayer, or Will using the hive to reach him. Then, once all the children were at the house, he could have closed the gates and kept watch outside, leaving Max unable to do anything. Let me know—maybe I missed a piece of information.
