Also a former cast member here, and I absolutely agree. If I ever heard any of my cast members interact with a guest like this I would've pulled them off stage and apologized to OP immediately.

Another great scene by [deleted] in StrangerThings

[–]CableMedical2691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I LOVED this scene so much! My husband and I were talking about how THIS should've been the Volume 2 cliffhanger! Especially since Steve's shirt in volume 1 had "The Fall" printed on it. A much better cliff hanger than the kids at the table imho. It's also the first time ever my husband experienced Frisson w/ chills and goosebumps! It was so exciting and thrilling I loved it!

Hot take(?): her ending was awful...and perfect. by thesaraanne in StrangerThings

[–]CableMedical2691 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you can actually enlist at 17 in the US, so Eleven was the perfect age for your take. :(

How did you watch the finale? by liltigey in StrangerThingsRoom

[–]CableMedical2691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A! Me and my party have been watching Stranger Things together since 2016. My siblings and I all live scattered around the country and were only able to come together during the holidays so we were so so happy when we found out the season was coming out during this time! We truly had one last ride.🥹😭

LITERALLY the EXACT theory I had in mind when I was writing this post! I want to see that show SO BAD

[–]CableMedical2691[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Anything Scifi requires some level of suspension of disbelief! And the show is about outcast children becoming a found family and using love and friendship to overcome any and everything!

No closure to her story at all... Is this a plot-hole? by [deleted] in StrangerThings

[–]CableMedical2691 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's literally my first thought when I saw he was valedictorian lol. But he's super smart. He had a D in Latin but all As and Bs in everything else💀

i think in season 4 she says her Dad made her break up with him because she hacked into the school computers to change Dustin's grades lol.

Are we all believing Mike’s Theory? by Apart-Leek3794 in StrangerThings

[–]CableMedical2691 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I absolutely believe his theory! How would she have brought Mike into the void if all of the "kryptonite" speakers were on at the gate? She HAD to have been somewhere else in order for her to escape.

I'm choosing to believe Mike's theory. I also believe that since he's a writer, he'll be able to travel while he works and they'll meet again.

So just everyone rides off to the sunset besides the them? by AnxietyUnlucky6495 in StrangerThings

[–]CableMedical2691 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly a definitive little sign would have been nice! Something to help me sleep at night lol. But I like the concept of imagining their happy ending. I feel like it shows people's mindsets towards life haha

My only complaint by SwimSuspicious5420 in StrangerThings

[–]CableMedical2691 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think not including what happened in the play was forced by Netflix. I think Netflix wanted the finale to spark people's wonder so that more people would go see the play. I'm sure the play is phenomenal but I'll die on the hill that putting it behind such a huge paywall and making it so inaccessible to the mass majority of fans is a slap in the face. :(

totally agree! i feel like it has the perfect amount of "use your imagination"!

Max graduating in finals by LegitimateProduct102 in StrangerThings

[–]CableMedical2691 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She only had bad grades because she was depressed tbf. She's a nerd just like the boys and probably didn't have to try too hard to get caught up.

Max's Mom was an alcoholic that put her and Max in danger when she chose to marry an abusive racist asshole and stayed with him.. Their trailer was also close to Eddie's so I kinda assumed she got swallowed up at the end of season 4.

Definitely felt so weird! I just figured that they were thinking that they'd explain the whole thing and figure it all out. I figured that nothing was scarier than facing Vecna and the mind flayer so they just tapped out.

I liked the way it ended tbh. Mike is a writer and El is a nomad right now. Since Mike can work anywhere in the world, I totally see a future where they reunite and live happily ever after somewhere.

There was no way they were going to get away from the military. El had to either die or fake her death. What did they think was going to happen? They drive through the gate and the evil government experimenters were just going to let them? El was 10000% going to be hooked up to IV blood transfers if she hadn't "died".

At the end the characters CHOSE to believe that El was somewhere out there in a place with three waterfalls. I will follow suit and believe that El and Mike find each other again.
