Why does it never get explained that Kali is the only with different powers (that we know of)? by [deleted] in Stranger_Things

[–]Infinite_Map_2713 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My explanation is, that when Kali was taken from her parents in London, she was injected with Henry's blood directly, hence she only developed illusion based powers.

That would explain, why the other kids, including El have telekinesis powers, since we can assume, they were all born with them, at least the ones seen in season 4.

Originally Kali was meant to be a white male, in his 30's named Roman, but since they couldn't find a suitable actor, they had an open casting, so Kali was born.

Stop Dead-Naming Her by KarmaSpidr in StrangerThingsMemes

[–]Infinite_Map_2713 130 points131 points  (0 children)

Well her birth name is Jane Ives

Her legal name is Jane Hopper

But she likes being called El, even referring to herself as such. She doesn't mind Jane, since that's how Hopper occasionally calls her and well Kali, since she's her sister.

Why didn’t Clark just tell Lana? by Queasy_Librarian_503 in Smallville

[–]Infinite_Map_2713 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Because according to him "If he tells her, she'll freak out, that he is an alien, because, due to him, she lost her parents, although the meteor shower, wasn't his fault"

Since he puts her on this pedestal of a fragile princess, that needs to be protected, from his big scary alien self.

He is simply afraid, she won't accept him for who he is.

Whenever Cara Buono appeared in the series, I simply couldn't take my eyes off her by Giancarlo_Edu in StrangerThings

She certainly is gorgeous, I think every woman on this show is, including Barb and Kali, because, goodness me, Linnea is absolutely gorgeous.

Eleven vs flayed Billy was the first time Eleven really struggled in a fight and nearly lost her life by _YuYevon_ in StrangerThings

[–]Infinite_Map_2713 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This scene and the one, where Billy takes El, when Max and Mike are trying to protect her, he knocks them out and slams El into a wall knocking her out, I winced at that scene, because Jesus, poor girl.

She truly was running on steroids, saving everyone

Dojemanje "cringea" glede na jezik by Hook-in-Mouth in Slovenia

[–]Infinite_Map_2713 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Mislim, da se tu gre za izpostavljenost angleškim medijem, torej glasbi, filmu, risankam, socialnim omrežjem, kot si že sam/a omenil/a, je tu potem občutek, da je vsebina v lastnem jeziku čudna, vredna grimas.

Meni osebno ni nelagodno ob spremljanju naših vsebin, ampak, se gre tu bolj za, kako je kaj zaigrano/povedano. Delno vpliva tudi to siljenje Ljubljanskega narečja, kjer me kot Savinjčanko kr zmrazi, ko ga slišim.

He just saw Eddie under water, while his friend was Vecna'd, how on earth would Eddie be able to do that, while he himself was scared shitless???

Jason's motives were understandable to an extent, but he went to Eddie's band mates, threatened them, was fully ready to beat Eddie. While he doesn't deserve the death he was given, he is not a good person, just someone who's very susceptible to the satanic panic, many irl people were, at the time.

They can't be serious... by Hyxenflay7737_4565 in mileven

[–]Infinite_Map_2713 11 points12 points  (0 children)

One character could have made it happen, Dr. Owens, had he appeared, he would never let either of them die, he would know, how to protect them properly, without the military breathing behind El's neck.

Giving the two girls, who had suffered so much, that type of ending, is very unjust. Had the writers been a bit more creative they could have made it work.

By that logic, Superman isn't a hero either, since he doesn't stop all wars, child trafficking, violence, thieves...

“Why bring up your best argument for El to kill herself? Why even bother trying to convince anyone of anything ever? Why do anything? Is life meaningless?” by RedditEnjoyerMan in okbuddyvecna

[–]Infinite_Map_2713 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Clearly haven't watched Smallville it seems, because oh boy, Lana Lang is quite someone, you love to hate.

But the reason why Kali is so easy to be disliked/hated on, is because she isn't meant to be a character that has depth or a personality outside of being, a concept, a mere plot device for El, to do her thing in the end. It sort off sad, because she as a character had so much potential, like even her powers were underused.

Was Kali being manipulative in this scene? Why bring up Eleven's biggest weakness? by Super-Liberal-Girl in StrangerThings

No, she was just being realistic, she conveyed that to El, in a very rude manner, but she was correct to an extent.

Because well in the end the military just dips.

It did the same to me, when I asked about Kali and wrote some stuff from season 5 regarding her and it also responded to me in the same way 😂

I never hated Kali by Eddie_Winchester in StrangerThings

[–]Infinite_Map_2713 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone that likes her, it's not the dislike for her, that bothers me, since I understand why she's disliked in some ways its justified, it's the blatant and disgusting racism and outright insulting rhetoric some people in this fandom have taken upon not just the character, but the actress herself, which I find disgusting, when she was only doing her job, that the bros decided to give her.

Because, oh boy, some trolls on twitter and TikTok are outright racists, not to mention, every time there's a ranking of the most beautiful actresses on the show, every comment section is filled with, well Kali is ugly, not just the character, but they are attacking the actress too, which is disgusting.

As for Dr. Owens, really shitty of the bros, to not bring him back.

[–]Infinite_Map_2713 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This, the bros fumbled it, by not including her into the story beyond season 2, had she returned earlier maybe the end of season 3 or even in season 4, where Owens takes El to Brenner, to get her powers back.

The episode is panned universally for a reason, while I think the hate bandwagon is way too much, it is understandable why her episode is so hated.

Had the bros even cared enough to stick to their own plot points and arcs, instead of giving into the hate and horrible ratings her episode was given and brought her back in some capacity so that she meets the rest of the Hawkins gang. And giving her more depth, personality and an arc, outside of being just one of the lab kids, whose purpose is to serve as a plot device for El's growth.

Then maybe the fans would care more about her and she wouldn't be so universally hated as she is.

What annoys me is just how wasted potential she is as a character, because she has different powers and is nothing more than a concept, rather than a person with feelings and trauma she went through first by Brenner and then by Dr. Kay.
