Official Stranger Things Season 4 Thread

[CW_1991]

All in all, it's a entertaining series still. Has its flaws though.

 

[TheGreatShowtime]

There were a lot of things that annoyed me this season, but I still really enjoyed it. Lucas absolutely killed it this season. Hopefully Will can have his moment next season.

streaming quality was complete ass at times.

Spoiler: Help me out

Maybe I’m missing something, but why did Vecna spare Nancy again? Just to get the word out to 11? Is that bad writing or did I not catch something?

Still thinking Max should have died.

Blind and wheelchair for life is kinda foul.

Her arms and legs are broken. We didn’t see any indication her spine was snapped. And I feel like she’ll get her sight back once her soul is restored

I think her bones will heal but she'll stay blind, may even become some sort of an oracle for the group.

Her and in particular Will are going to have much bigger roles as we close things out,

Well.... They got caught in a corner....

Spoiler

They don't want to make Vecna look weak. They didn't want to kill Nancy and not give Vecna another L. It's pretty simple.... They had to make a convulted way to make it out without doing those thing. So, he told Nancy to bring Eleven.... Which doesn't even make the slightest sense. 99% won't even notice it. Also... she wasn't the final victim. It was always max

Gotcha. I thought I was tripping.

I think Max stole this season. Max played a huge central role, although this show does very well spreading the light on everyone.

Max's storyline was my favorite this season. Sadie Sink acted her ass off and she has bright future ahead.

With Max's storyline it felt like Vecna was a metaphor for depression/grief/trauma. The Duffer Bros did a fantastic job mirroring the symptoms of depression, physical(headaches, etc) and mental(nightmares, pushing loved ones away). Highlighting the complicated feelings one would have losing a family member who was verbally abusive (AND RACIST) was really great. Max admitting that she wanted Billy's bytch ass dead all that time but felt guilt and sadness when it actually happened is very true to life regarding abusive family.


I cried. Watched the last 2 episodes with my brother and cried again.

 

[Paper Boi]

I'm shocked how much yall love it and giving it GOAT status, you can obviously see the big budget but outside of the cool production and cinematography, I found most of the storylines pretty mid this season.

if my girl didn't love this shyt i would have tapped out a couple episodes into this season... shyts was way too long.


I think maybe I just don't give a fukk about most of the characters for some reason, I enjoyed the first three seasons though so it's weird.. .maybe I'm just being a hater.

Caleb made this scene. He really did. I felt every ounce of his pain.

So you telling me a group of kids with only one of them having any inkling of power are able to continously evade otherworldly demonic shyt that is out to get them and only them yet every likeable new side character dies and it makes sense? Look I like the show but call a spade a spade.

I mean the Losers Club did it in IT and they didn't have a superpowered girl on their side to help them avoid Pennywise. No one from that group died until they were adults(book and movies). The fact that the Duffers take so much from King, it makes sense they wrote it this way, although I definitely get ppl wanting the consequences to have more weight.

 

[GunRanger]

Episode 9 was one of the best season finales of any show



Seeing max get snapped up


Eddie's uncle reaction to dustin was sad as fukk.



I dont know why El and them were reluctant to say right away they helped. El should have been like "I was there with her fighting" while everyone was looking at them like they missed saving the world

 

[FishNGrits]

Was annoyed they was soft on max. They should of committed.

Look I like the show but call a spade a spade. Now eleven can bring nikkas back from death on some Naruto Pein shyt the shyt is predictable now.

I'll continue to enjoy the show but the ship has sailed on this being some greatly written tale. there is nothing more tired than some angsty cac being the big bad, its also true to life





and vecna turned out to be a trash ass cliched antagonist. O woe is me humans suck I'll rebuild the world in my image if only I could fade this little girl. I've seen more compelling villians in generic jrpgs, thats not good.


and don't get it wrong, I like this series and gave this season a 8/10 but it was gon be a 10/10 before that last ep

Yea exactly how I feel.

 

[FishNGrits]

nikkas just want people to die for the sake of “SUbveRTIng EXPecTaTIonS”
Probably the same weirdos that liked TLOU2/Squid Games

Nah b, she was legit dead and now home girl is second coming of Christ. That’s just an ass pull

They really should've have. I ain't been hit by a death like that in a LONG time. They pulled some anime shyt bringing her back like that
