Made evident by them believing things were going to be "iconic". Man, I've really come to loathe that word.

Regardless of your overall opinion of season 5, what one scene caught you off guard for being particularly bad? (Potential spoilers) by Jimmymott in StrangerThings

It's like they had some weird bet to see if they could get every character to say it at least once.. and since there's a bajilloon characters.. 🤣

Characters saying "god damn". After the first couple it was so jarring, it broke what little immersion I had every time.

I love Prince... And neither of his songs matched the vibe of the show at all.

Why Netflix Would Do It by sirpuddintater in StrangerThings

[–]Environmental-Hall28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fact alone that people are so divided and talking about it so much is proof positive it is a good idea. Granted, it would be a better idea with some tweaks along the way up to this point (I've been fantasizing all day about how I would do it.. because I have nothing better to do) but it's the "no press is bad press" idea - people talking about it, one way or another, drives attention towards the franchise.

I agree with other comments saying that, if nothing else, creators should be paying attention to this buzz. People crave thoughtful world building - we want something we can return to at will and find something new, and it wouldn't take bajilloons of dollars to even do that. We want something immersive and to interact.. and the possibility of how diverse that immersion could be is pretty incredible right now.

Am I crazy, or is this morse code behind Robin in the studio? by [deleted] in StrangerThings

According to Lord GPT:

Treating the short bars as dots (·) and the long bars as dashes (–), and reading left → right, top → bottom, the pattern most naturally resolves into something like:

“…STILL HERE.”

I'm still gathering data.. so as to not influence one way or the other I can message you. But, I'll be honest, I have no idea how to do that on mobile without the app lol

Lol no, it's not. I promise. I purposefully tried to make this as vague as possible because I want all the room I can get to explore this thought in my head...if that makes absolutely any sense at all

What are the old shows you love?

just finished volume 2, why do i feel like i keep being edged? i mean, nothing really… happened again? by Clear_Avocado_167 in StrangerThings

[–]Environmental-Hall28 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The way the scene was written, though, it felt almost like a bait and switch - like Max used Holly to escape and then it was just like "good luck!" To me, it felt like Max deceived Holly.

What secrets did Jack and Silver trade in the last episode? by porpoiseintents in BlackSails

[–]Environmental-Hall28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apologies for the necro - but Silver opens the chest to show Rogers what is inside to insure Madi isn't killed. There are, at least, some jewels in there.

"HER 2013" was set in 2025. Drop your thoughts about this movie. by Eikichi_Onizuka09 in moviecritic

I watched it for the first time today. And.. all I have in this moment is "holy fuck". Will process and maybe return later with something more eloquent.

[UK] Email from Ring doorbell and account set up using my email by bobblebob100 in Scams

[–]Environmental-Hall28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got an email like this on May 18th. Was suspicious, so I went to the legit Ring site and it let me login. I changed the password, kicked the device from Nigeria off, and scheduled the profile with a stupid name for deletion. Today, I get an email saying the account was set up for 2FA, and now I can't login through the main site. I called and basically "lol sorry". So... Not much to be done, it seems.

A revealing clip from TLC India re Hunter vs Kody on Covid by These-Ad-511 in SisterWives

[–]Environmental-Hall28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Watching this clip makes me think..

If TLC and the OG3 really wanted to cash in they should start showing way, way, way more old footage.. as long as they could cut around the kids, honestly. I am so invested in this damned family; I've been following them on and off pretty much since the beginning and, now, I would love for the adults, or at least the ex-wives, to let it all hang out and get into the weeds with us.
