I had no problems with ST4, i even think it's the best session so far, connecting everything back to ST1 without any plot holes.

I really enjoyed it but it was capeshit tier just like 2 and 3, none of them are better than season 1 and the last season won’t be either
Season 1 is the only season of stranger things that will ever be truly great, it was an incredible self contained small town paranormal mystery series that told the story it wanted to tell, it didn’t need a sequel but they made more anyway because it keeps people subscribed to Netflix. The only way to continue it was to do the same thing every season with ramped up stakes, so now we have entire plot lines taking place in a fricking gulag, hundreds of monsters to fight instead of one lurking in the shadows, hopper going from a depressed small town cop to a Bruce Willis action hero, etc.
That being said it’s incredibly entertaining, I still love the show but it’s moronic to say any season is better than season 1, the quality has dropped immensely but the show has never lost its sovl
the fact that the Upside Down is revealed to be frozen in 1983 or whatever poses the question how did Will see any of those letters
That was my thought as well, but they could just say it was frozen after Will got out.
The litebrite in season 4 makes no sense though. They write on it with their finger as if the litebright is a grid of LEDs, but litebrites only have a single lightbulb.
THANK YOU
i scoffed at that dumb shit and nobody u derstood why
Because everything with Vecna was written after season 3.
008 is another example, she had those illusion powers which implied all the bald mkultra sperg kids had different types of powers which was retconned when they decided all of them had Vecnas powers, it doesn’t make any sense and they’re not going to address it. Like I was saying it’s capeshit now, it’s not going to hold up under scrutiny but it’s still a fun show.
Season 1 is like a great 8 hour movie that should taken on its own as a single piece of art, the rest should be taken as schlocky sequels that don’t follow the rules of the original but are still really good if you enjoy the world and it’s characters, think of it like Friday the 13th or Pirates of the Caribbean
season 1 had the same rubbish pacing, flexible stakes and 5 minute ending resolution as every other season.
?t=31
They even made comics about other kids, too. One of them had a healing power, another had a power to manipulate fire. It was literally an X-men ripoff, which was kinda cute at the time, but as they went on they had to pull shit out of their asses and retcon. I don't blame them for not thinking ahead because they had no idea how big the show was going to get, but god damn, at least own up to your shit.
Pretty sure all that is no longer canon.
season 1 isn't better than 2-4, it was just newer.
appropriate that a show literally built on nostalgia should end up suffering from seasonal nostalgia that is equally unjustified.
S4 was RIFE with plot holes and retcons, what the frick are you smoking?
He's literally me.
The next logical step is to make stranger things but instead of horror make it fantasyl a la never ending story.
It'll be like 80s flavour narnia
Frick off shill this season was trash
Based
Have sex
falafalafala
S1 > 4 > 3 > 2
Although 4 was just too bloated.
Regardless, this show is entertaining but not the kind of thing I’d be looking to return to, the dialogue wears itself thin which is kinda essential when you’re doing long form tv
I personally think it's the worst season.
And the bad guy... My god, they literally ruined the Upside down. Originally it was cosmic horrors and eldritch abominations. Now it's just;
>lol some incel pedo went mad his e-girl wife rejected him
It was so much better as this unexplained terror.
It's still that? He only learned to control those beings, they were already there when he arrived.
steel was here before humans arrived, we are still the ones that wield it
>He only learned to control those beings
Oh im glad a human can control the main threat of the entire series, doesnt degrade the threat of them at all.
>IT'S JUST A PRANK! IT'S PRANK! i JUST PUT THOSE KIDS TO SLEEP! LOOK! IT'S JUST KETCHUP! NOOOOOOO
>when you're nutting but get a cramp
The whole "Vecna is actually the creator of the Mind Flayer and the upside down" reveal kind of killed it for me
Yea. His reveal was good and we works well as a lesser baddie, but making him the big bad ruins the mystery and suspense of the Mind Flayer. There's no ancient unknown horror anymore, just some power tripping autist.
Now we have to wait 1-3 years just to watch him lose again. Some main character will die in the process no doubt, but it won't really matter because the show will be over anyway.
He's not did you even watch the same series Jesus Christ you people are moronic. The mind flayer preys on him.
can't spell, and stupid
poor you
>connecting everything back to ST1 without any plot holes
kek no it doesnt. It makes his "plan" look completely fricking moronic and pointless. Nothing he supposedly did in the first 3 seasons had any bearing on season 4 at all.
>without any plot holes
You fricking shit breath. There are so many plot holes, I smell the shit air from your mouth seeping through them.
do you think max will be taken off life support for being poor? those bills would bankrupt a normal family, let alone maxs trailer park single mother
i would be surprised if the writers could resist the opportunity to dunk on the disfunctional american healthcare system (they certainly couldnt resist the fake news/minsinformation dunking this season) and the tension of "will-they-wont-they throw her out" would be an effective plot device to keep her relevant throughout the next season
actually maybe max will be the connection that allows el to get to vecna?
vecna has absorbed maxs mind/soul (hence her mind being empty) so there could be a piggyback connection to vecnas mind
>they certainly couldnt resist the fake news/minsinformation dunking this season
newbies don't know about the satanic panic.
everybody fricking knows about the satanic panic you moron
im talking about lines like "you cant tell the difference between news and tabloids these days!"
the writers made that a central plot as a reflection of modern society, do you not understand allegory?
just like how the crucible reflected mccarthyism back at itself, stranger things reflects twitter back at itself
Eddie should've played Raining Blood instead of Master of Puppets
He should have played Ed Sheeran - Shape of You. That would have been epic I think.
Based take. Shitflayer gays btfo
Any chance they retcon it? It seems to be the biggest issue people have with episode 9.
>Nancy gets taken in by Vecna as a cliffhanger
>that entire bit was so "tell Eleven what I've done.."
>Eleven gets filled in minutes later by military reporting that "VECNA IS 001 AND HES DOING THE MURDERS"
Legit don't understand the purpose of that moment
>Reddit things
Worst season to be fully honest.
Only season one was tolerable because it wasn't like
>OMG THE 80s
>WOW GUYS DO YOU REMEMBER THE 80s
>WOW 80s MUSIC
>GUYS COLD WAR, REMEMBER THAT?
Like almost all of the other ones.
Nah, worst season easily
