I assume the amp was there as well. The real cool thing was that the electricity was on to drive the amp and guitar.

Will is surely gay, but there's probably more to it than that. Because of his prior experiences, he probably has some sort of ability to see horrible stuff in the future or some Upside-Down thing that adds to his gloominess. I bet he eventually has a Eureka! moment and provides the key to finally dropping Vecna. Ideally, this will come with a better haircut.

If they jump ahead to '88-'89, he'll have a mullet with a perm just in the back.

Ironically enough the actor probably has the best looking haircut in real life.

Couldn't they have just put the amp on the roof and played the guitar from the presumed safety of the mobile home?  It really doesn't seem all that realistic.

It's a show about some teens and a girl with telekinesis fighting demons from a parallel world.  How realistic do you need it to be?

Max died, right?  That’s why Eleven is in the black alone before Hopper shows up and why the “dam broke” at the end.  That was my take.  

I thought the last episode was nails.

You didn’t watch the end, did you. Did you stop at the fade to black?

Didn't read other posts, but man, this first show of the second half of the fourth season (or whatever it is) is really not great. 

The music isn't even holding it together.  Hope it picks up.  Let's close this thing out, pronto.

I don't think I missed a post-credit scene, but could have.  I guess I interpreted Eleven saving Max as stopping the upside down mid-dam break.  But when Eleven goes looking for her again in the spin the bottle scene and it's all black, I wasn't sure what that meant.  When upside down flakes spread over Hawthorn at end, I took that to perhaps mean that, two days later, the fourth (Max) had died and allowed the dam to fully bust as it were, to use the metaphor in the show.

There was a scene before the credits of Max in a hospital bed, wide awake, with her limbs in casts. Kinda hard to miss that she is alive.

Max’s mind isn’t there. Vecna has it. But her body is alive.

Alternative: she's a ginger, thus no soul.

I hope Max gets some recognition for her performance. She has shown to be a phenomenal actress and was the star of the season, IMO.

[4th&Five 41619]

I’m sure it has been mentioned but she’s a Brenham native as well.

True, between the last two seasons she got to display some good range as an actor.

Watched last night and Master is still stuck in my head. Great use of that song.

So what are we thinking about the upside down flakes?

[kingkoopa6 8395]

DAMN.. when did 11 get ass and titties tho?

 

[LCHorn 2633]

So who thinks Season 5 will involve Eleven using her powers to reunite Max’s spirit with her body, thereby undoing her death and closing the gate?

What the fuck?  How do some of you make it through life?  At no point was she wide awake. She’s in a coma. She is brain dead. 11 went in to her mind to look for her, but it was dark and empty.  

[Prepuce of Doom 21112]

What purpose did Eddie's "sacrifice" serve? How did his decision to leave Dustin in the real world, cut the rope, and attract the attention of the batmonsters (and dying in the process) help anyone else accomplish anything?

Interesting theory I read

Spoiler

Eddie didn't die, he becomes Kas the Bloody-Handed, a vampire, who becomes Vecna's right hand man and betrays him.

agreed, using time travel to go back in time

[Pato del Muerto 52665]

Might as well travel far enough back to stop herself from putting 0001 into the upside down.  A lot of people don’t die. Like billy and Samwise. 
 

it’d be the sci fi version of panning out from a hospital inside a snow globe.

Her death scene was powerful for sure. “I’m not ready”. Are any of us?

I think it just punctuates what a musical genius Eddie was.  he had an ear like mozart.

Some cooler climate areas wait until late March or early April for spring break. 

[Baboontyme 2831]

El needs to use her powers to go back a few years and figure out how Sophomore year Nancy turned into that.

Eddie is going to be just fine.

[CooterBrown 18038]

Too lazy to see if it’s up thread, but there is a theory that Eddie is alive and has been converted to one of Vecna’s cronies and the gang will have to save him while taking down Vecna.
