The girl that plays Holly is a beast. I was watching them do a table read and she was the only one not even looking at the script when saying her lines. Her, Caleb (Lucas), Sadie (Max), and Gaten (Dustin) are the best actors on the show IMO. Oh yeah, Maya Hawke (Robin) too. She's dope.

I'm sad at how much they wasted Linda Hamilton. She ain't doing shyt and it looks like won't be doing much in the finale either.

And dude who plays Steve.

 

[Diunx]

That's also the type of shyt people say when they get mad And maybe he really felt like that at the time. Hell I thought Eddie was stupid too

No it isn't

Who the fukk talk about someone's death friend and shyt on his dead because they are having an argument?

The while thing was dumb as fukk specially during that moment

 

[Diunx]

Small town Indiana is like that? Everybody just cool with the announcement and moves on in two seconds like it's whatever

I mean everyone was cool with a Wesley Snipe black, black kid dating Becky Redhead, we all know 80's smalltown USA was progressive as fukk.

Her and Max will be the breakout stars out of this show.

MAN AINT NOBODY
SPENDING THEIR XMAS NIGHT
WATCHING THIS shyt



​

. . i got one 'gentrified' cousin down in a southern state with a white wife and two kids living in a Karen cul-de-sac. . . he said the only thing on his Christmas list was to get 3 hours to himself to binge the whole thing . . . . when he did a huge smile with the Chiclet veneers glowin and he said 'Team Lucasss' but had that suburban lisp like he was really "Team Will" . . .. . i deaded the Facetime right then and there . .. .

Dr. Doom collecting kids
Vecna collecting kids
Drake collecting kids

I'm noticing a pattern with villains as of late

"White Entertainment"

 

[summwunn]

I think 6 was the best episode of the 3. Episode 7 was a good setup for the finale.

I wonder if we'll ever find out what young Henry found in the suitcase in the tunnel. That might be covered in that Broadway play, but I'm never going to go watch that bs

. . .. probably pics and 8mm film reels of Henry gettin dikked down by his pops . . . . in the Duffer 'Brothers' minds . . . thats the shared-trauma between Will and Henry . . . .. and i wont be surprised if one or both of the Duffers get exposed once this shyt is done and over with . . . ..

 

[summwunn]

There is a Stranger Things play that explained Vecna's backstory and what was in the briefcase. We're supposed to know this as TV watchers to supposedly help with the pacing.

What?

.. . they gonna do some post-season Animatrix bullshyt streaming-drop and come up with some Animated Anthology that will fill in the "plot holes" . . . ..

The creator do really well with child actors. Its why Derek and Holly shine so easily. The OG cast lost their charm as adults though. And bluntly the three main characters El, Will, and Mike all cannot act. Max and Dustin still kill their roles and Lucas isn’t given much but he’s a solid actor overall

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

I thought that dude Finn could act? Wasn't he in 'It - Chapter One' also? Is it the material he's given or is he just trash now?

 

[Jazzy B.]

Why are y’all not being honest about this season?


It’s been outside of Vecna vs the military and the ep where the monster took the sister.

There are now way too many characters, too many conversations and now the story has become convoluted for no reason other than they had to STRETCH everything to match the inflated runtimes.

 

[Diondon]

nikkas wait til Season 5 to introduce some new quantum physics and shyt
lol @ that coming out scene.
Everybody was like we know, lil nikka

The inflated run times weren’t the problem, they did a great job with season 4 and that was by far the longest season but also the best season since season 1

The problem with this season is they don’t have enough time…..I absolutely hate it when shows that I really like that are consistently good do this shyt at the finish line, why are you introducing new characters, adding in unnecessary extra characters from the past, and introducing new concepts that muddy the already well fleshed out world when you don’t have enough time as it is to wrap it up, so now we get inconsistent lore, lazy plot armour, and sloppy writing and character interactions to make it “work”

Hopper and Eleven have also been extremely sidelined this season due to the added cast

One thing time has done is exposed that the kids couldnt really act, I guess it was fine when they were kids but its very noticeable now.
