Quote HistoryQuoted: I believe this is correct. The floating clocks and house pieces is inside of a "dream" or whatever when Vecna does that Matrix thing to tap into our dimension. I liked all the parallels they gave Vecna to Freddy Krueger. His left hand is like the Freddy Blade glove. He attacks through a sleep/trance. He has a burned body. Ect ect. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I’m wondering now if Will is gay, or does he know he’s connected to the upside down world. I still remember from the first or second season with he coughed up something that crawled down the drain. He's gay for Mike. His speech to Mike when he presented him his painting confirmed that. |

Quote HistoryQuote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: Best part of the finale The finale was great. Really good. I'll probably watch it again at some point this weekend to look for more Easter eggs. Robin is dressed up like somebody but I can't put my finger on who. With the beret and all. I know there is a reference there somewhere. At first I thought it was a nod to The Legend of Billie Jean, but I checked and that's not it. There's also a really good nod to the original "It" movie at the end. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/4019/MV5BMTQwMTUxNDYzNF5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwMjAx-2438878.JPG They put Robin in British DPM pants, though.

Quote HistoryQuoted: He's gay for Mike. His speech to Mike when he presented him his painting confirmed that. Pretty sure Mike knows it too. There was a brief exchange between the two in the third season where he and Mike were arguing and Mike told him he knew he wasn’t into girls and that was fine but that he was. I wish I could remember where that scene is exactly. |

There are of course a lot of references to 70s and 80s media in the show, like Carrie, Silence of the Lambs, Nightmare on Elm Street, E.T., Goonies, etc. Did you all catch the Star Wars reference where the guys with guns are taking position in the hallway and aiming their guns at the blast door, which is then blown up and stormed?

I wish I could remember where that scene is exactly. I think at that time the scene was less about an implication that he's gay but rather that he wasn't mature enough to like girls yet. He was still acting like a kid. That was the whole point of the scene - they were playing D and D and Will was really into it (in costume and everything) and neither Mike or Lucas had any interest in playing. They were growing up and Will was still stuck in the past. That being said, assuming he is gay, wtf is Mike supposed to do about it? Mike isn't gay and clearly is in love with El. |

I don’t think Will is gay for Mike, I think he’s gay and wants to confide in Mike because he’s closest to him, Mike is his best friend. His brother certainly has guessed. It would be a great head take if it turned out he isn’t gay at all, and it’s something else. Either way they should shit or get off the pot. They’ve been dragging this plot line out long enough. |

No he’s totally gay for mike that’s what all the heart stuff on the shield was all about He lied about the painting being commissioned, eleven said she didn’t know what he was painting since he was being so secretive about it in the first episode |

Just heard on talk radio that the Duffer Brothers have formed their own film/production company called Upside Down films. A spin off is in the works for the show after season 5 supposedly.

Controversies as well. In one of the prior seasons, there's a quick glimpse of a newspaper mentioning Project MKULTRA and in the newest one, the satanic panic that started in the 80s. Also this seems relevant: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stargate_Project |

Just finished the season, I hope all the characters die except for maybe steve
The only good thing about this season was how fucking stupid the plot was which made it entertaining for us as we mst3ked our way through this retarded shit fest. I know I'm going against the grain here but they took an awesome show/idea and turned it into a fucking joke. We laughed at pretty much the entire 2 1/2 hr ending, they took a creepy awesome story and gave it one of the dumbest bad guys we've ever seen in a really fucking bad rubber suit. |

Ok so idk how to do a spoiler text, but my theory for season 5.
So during the massacre in the rainbow room you never see 8, elevens “sister” featured in season 2, you dont see her escape so did henry help her escape the lab before El? but i believe she will come back in season 5 (otherwise why feature her so prominently in season 2) and help defeat vecna, |

Could 18 year olds (Jason) buy handguns in the Spring of 1986?
ETA: Nope. Under the federal Gun Control Act of 1968, long guns can only be sold to individuals 18 years old or older while handguns can be sold only to individuals 21 years old or older. Unfortunately popular TV shows inform a great many people about guns and gun laws. Some of these people vote. |

I know this won’t happen, but with how old the actors are in real life I wish season 5 would skip to 1989 at the end of the their senior year. If they do what they keep doing each season only skipping one year, then they will look really old being sophomores. |

Given what I've seen on other shows, though, it could be way worse. |

Was really blown away by this season. Absolutely fantastic. Loved the step up in intensity, darkness and disturbing violence. I have loved every season and I have faith in the Duffer brothers and crew but how do they top this? Or live up to it. I hear many people saying that this is the best season and I think they have good reason even though I may not completely agree. I was definitely not expecting some of the episodes to be this GOOD. Episode 4 especially.

I agree with the theory that Eleven has to die before the gate can be permanently sealed.
Also did anyone notice that after the rift opened in the Creel house the head basketball kid was laying across it and "burned up"? I kinda wonder more along the lines of will HE come back and be Vecna's right hand man much more so than Eddie. |
