It feels like yesterday I watched them, it was a different feeling I can't explain, i feel like I'm in a different world when I watched them. I don't know how to explain....

My 8 year old daughter wanted to be a Demogorgon for Halloween this year, so I spent the last couple weeks making these costumes. Heads are made out of EVA foam, fabric, and paint. Bought the body suits and hand painted the muscles on mine/printed and transferred with infusible ink on hers. Sewed the hands and stuffed with pillow stuffing to add shape and made the claws out of felt (added red rhinestone blood to mine). For the pictures, we got up at 6am to drive to a pond that had morning fog. Pretty happy with how they turned out!

Looking to sell these two pieces, hopefully as a package deal. I can send more pictures when I get home for those who are interested. Please PM if interested.

Going to be weird not getting a new season this time of year :(

Hey there. Sharing a quick video walkthrough of my Halloween theme this year, none other than Stranger things :) I switch up my theme every year, but this year I finally pulled the trigger on the theme I’ve always wanted to do. Not shown are some of the effects I’ll have on Halloween night like lightning and thunder, stage lighting, music and a demogorgon, but you get the idea lol. If you’re interested in seeing detailed photos or more videos, happy to share. Happy Halloween everyone! 🎃

Season 4 was truly a masterclass in balancing the ensemble cast, multiple plot points and perspectives, while still keeping the emotional weight and making the storyline so compelling

Just saw this on Boxed Lunch, thought it was interesting!

It’s been a year since season 5 came out and we haven’t gotten any bloopers or anything. Was the season that horrible that they couldn’t even release bloopers?

I just finished watching the series with my son (this is his second time going through the series). Many holes and questions, but I keep telling myself it's a show geared towards my kid (IMO). So, we were wondering -

I read just a little bit about the Abyss Stone, Philadelphia Experiment, etc. Still want to know more about it However, one thing - the scientist that Henry killed - how did he know that the stone was going to consume him? I know not literally, but how did he know that unless someone else was "infected" by the stone.

And, as I understand it, the Upside World was the worm hole - that Eleven created - but, wasn't Dr Brenner studying it in his lab and how did the ship from the Philadelphia experiment go to the Upside Down world? I just read about it on Reddit.

Thanks

Conveniently next to a film set/trucks that popped up a few days ago?

Wanted to get some perspective from non-sports card collectors on the mathematical pull odds here.

With 100 cards in the base checklist and Eleven Blue parallels numbered to /11 being case-hit tier, what are the actual statistical odds of hitting a specific character's 01/11 bookend out of sealed wax?

I recently had this Card #91 Vecna "You Will Break" (01/11) graded with CGC and locked in a Mint 9 (Top Pop 1|0). Would love to hear from anyone who opened Zerocool ST4 cases on how rare these specific villain /11 pulls actually were!"

Hey guys, so Halloween weekend is approaching and though I don't go to celebrate, I am re-watching S1-4 again starting tonight-sunday. Right now I'm re-watching season one and it just hit me that I think had Nancy left with Barbara when she was trying to get her to go home i think Barbara would've still been alive.

Man I really miss this series.... The atmosphere the characters the music the friendships… everything about it feels special. Nothing hits quite the same.

I wish I could experience watching it for the first time all over again.... plus this winter -?😭

… I feel like we got nothing of that charisma the way his character was written and directed in the later seasons of ST which is a pity because that charisma was still there as was obvious with how the epilogue narrative depended on him all alone and he nailed it.

What do you think of her throughout the show? On first watch and rewatch. Her character development, storylines, trauma, insecurities, actions and choices, relationships, guilt, being a leader, etc. Her strengths and flaws, best and worst moments/seasons. Who she is as a leader, woman, friend, girlfriend, sister, daughter, and character with complex feelings.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!

I heard that the actor of Papa flat out actually said that he hated season 5. Do you think the other actors/actresses secretly feel the same way even if they won't say or show it?

How do you think Flo reacted to hopper’s supposed death? She seemed close and or cared for him, she probably knew about Sarah which is why she tolerated his alcoholism and tardiness or at least knew he was a good man deep down. She was probably the one who had to clean out his desk and help out with the transition. I wonder how she was.

I just finished watching season 1 it was so good I can't wait to watch more I bought the whole show so I can watch all of it

For several reasons, but above all, I say this because she is a complete afterthought in The Bridge and The Rightside Up. She has absolutely nothing of consequence to say or do, and isn't seen or mentioned in the epilogue at all. You could cut her entirely from those last two episodes with not much changing. (Just have a wheelchair for Max already be in the hospital basement, and have Erica and Mr. Clark watch her while the rest of the group goes to the Abyss.)

u/StrawHatMan_XD theorizes (in two comments on two other posts I've made that I included in this one in screenshots) that she was supposed to die in earlier drafts, but the writers chickened out because they didn't wanna be accused of "burying their gays" or whatever. Honestly, this theory makes a lot of sense. And may I expand on that theory by adding that I think by the time they chickened out of killing her, presumably pretty far into the writing process or maybe even right as they were getting ready to start filming Escape from Camazotz, it was too late to come up with a lot for her to do in the last stretch of the season, hence why they went with the bare minimum for her for the rest of November 6th and didn't bother adding her to the epilogue.

Offing her in the demodog hospital attack in Escape from Camazotz would've not only given season 5 some much needed weight and drama, which it's severely lacking as is, but it also would've reduced the bloated main cast and raised the stakes at least a little.

But also, what amazing Vickie moments would we as viewers have missed out on in The Bridge and The Rightside Up if the demodogs were competent-enough threats to kill her in the hospital attack in Escape from Camazotz? If you're gonna do the absolute bare minimum with her after the hospital attack and not feature her in any way, shape or form in the extended 18 months later epilogue, then why keep her around?

I’ll probably make a post for each season but here we go!

What were the top five moments from season 1 in your opinion?

Personally I’d go:

1: Hopper and Joyce finding Will in the upside down, the scene is so emotional with Hoppers flashbacks and the music is incredible, a perfect wrap to Season 1

2: Will getting taken, this scene is a close second, the mystery and atmosphere were just perfect, excellent start to Season 1

3: The Demogorgon fight with Nancy, Johnathan, and Steve, another incredible scene Steve barging in just as the lights start to flicker, then him just picking up a bat and fighting it, ugh! Just so good!

4: Eleven kills the demogorgon, another incredible scene, the build up is so intense and the aftermath with Mike thinking she died is just so good

5: Eleven saves Mike at the quarry, it’s really the first scene that made me feel like Eleven was part of the group, I knew that Mike probably wasn’t going to die but him falling then levitating back up was super cool to see, Eleven breaking the bully’s arm was a nice touch.

Let me know what you think! Season 1 is definitely the most nostalgic season for me so I remember a lot of the scenes better lol
