Dedicated Stranger Things Series Thread

[Baboontyme 2812]

I've had people advising me to watch for awhile. I finally decided to start it a few weeks ago. I though the first few episodes were very meh. Watched Episode 4 last night and it packed the heat. As did 5. I'm starting 6 now. I'm digging it. 

Please spoiler tag if spoilering. 

Oh and is it wrong to think that El and Nancy are going to be very hot in 5-10 years? Asking for a friend. 

[bamachine 1231]

Nancy is already legal, all she needs is to eat a sammich every once in a while.

[Baboontyme 2812]

Ugh, I don't know I can see the potential but I'm not quite pervy enough to go there, even if legal. I'm good with the 1/2 + 7 rule and she's not there.

Much more than one..... And production started in 2015.  She's always been legal.  21 these days, but she looks like she has a eating disorder.

I enjoyed season 2 much more than season 1, FWIW.

Season 1 takes awhile to find it's stride....

Yeah, she makes me think of an anorexic version of Emmy Rossum and she is already a skinny lass.

[Baboontyme 2812]

Not a sci fi guy normally but I'm finding these episodes super intense. Currently on S1:E8. Can't stop watching. 

[plvhorn 25]

Just finished both seasons. Put me in the ‘I like season 1 better’ camp. 

[Baboontyme 2812]

Please don't spoiler me but I'm S2:E4 and I'm getting the sense that Constable Rudy Bob the boyfriend is a plant from the bad people. 

[Sbbruin 21853]

Just watched season 1 episode 1 last night.  Will continue.

[NotActuallyALonghorn 4976]

Yeah, I recently binged both seasons. Needless to say I enjoyed it.

Season 3 teaser and title drops. Set in the summer of 85.

 

[Neonmoon 38129]

[Dewey 3286]

Cant talk 85 without talking about dem Bears

[Red Five 40858]

God dammit I hate it when the trailers give everything away.

What do you guys think the min age is to watch Stranger Things? I know maturity levels differ, but just a general sense. 

[bamachine 1231]

I would say that you must have more than one digit in your age.

[Drew 2408]

Still one of the the creepiest and coolest opening sequences.

[SubliminalHorn 6787]

I really hope it doesn’t keep bringing other kids that were with Eleven who have their own powers and it turns all cheesy and shit. Been there, done that. 

[futureman 22462]

when is it being released?

While overall I love this series, season 1 >>>>>> Season 2.  I hate that they tried to ground everything in reality in Season 2.  I didn't need the Upside Down to literally be under the city. It's an alternate dimension. I'm okay with that.

IIRC, that is one reason #3 didn't come out at Halloween in 2018.  The creators felt rushed doing the second season and wanted the third to be much better.

[bamachine 1231]

I am not sure they were saying the upside down was just underground, last season. I think some of the creatures that came across made their lair underground but you still had to pass through a rift to get to where the big bad was located. It was handled a little hamfisted though, likely due to the rush job.

I kind of like mixing it up and not starting it on Halloween. Seems like a perfect way to segue from the celebratory mood at the end of last season, with 4th fireworks and lead right into the terror of S3.Plus that summer was awesome, it was the one before I started HS.

[Knoxtnhorn 5976]

Plus it's easier (teacher) for me to binge watch in July. 

[Drew 2408]

Can't Wait.

[Continental Op 3934]

Eleven looks a little like Angela from Sleepaway Camp in that poster. That would certainly be a weird direction for the series to go in.

[Guest Lobo]

It was a very strange dismissal for them to pick up that backstory with the sheriff being onto the lab guys years earlier when his daughter won that big academic competition.  And that asshole at the bar and the guys in the government sedan out back afterwards.  That whole thing was swept back under the rug.  

Anyway, looks like this starts out as 1985 starts and then the bulk occurs out of school in summer of 1985, yes?  

And more importantly, we still have six more months before this thing is released in our world?  Must be one helluva posting

[mdmost 43001]

Oh hell yeah

 

[Don Hornleone 530]

I need a Steve and Dustin spin off when this is all over. 

[MNLonghornFUKM 8817]

I have no idea how season 2 left off.

[TheStoicPaisano 9922]

Mayor Dwead Piwate Woberts? In.

[Guest Lobo]

And that mayor's son goes on to run for President of the United States in 2020.  

Trailer is awesome.  I'm in.  I really do hope they circle back to the origins of the Sheriff and that Lab.

My favorite part of Season 2. Steve went from douchebag to lovable hero.

[Neonmoon 38129]

I'm so in

Looks great...definitely a different feel than the 1st 2 seasons, and probably because it's Summer and they're older.

[bamachine 1231]

Is there something wrong with me, when that trailer gave me a boner?

[PilotsError 2287]

Not if you think eleven is hot.

[atomheartbevo 89665]

Wow. They captured the 80s mall. 

[RoundRobin 828]

How was the pull out?

[elfenix 34240]

was nancy in that or did she finally waste away into nothing?

[bamachine 1231]

I think she was the flat chested lifeguard.

[bamachine 1231]

Also, that mall better be in a nearby larger city. No way a town their size had a double-decker mall. Hell, I doubt their town would have one at all.

[deech 2275]

That was a great trailer.  In.
