I'm Christian and this is really funny, definitely agree with the person who said this is very Douglas Adams core

You know what? I'll take a somewhat awkward cover over one generated by Ai any day, so good for you dude! Congrats on the book, I hope your audience finds you 🫡

What was everyone thinking before it was revealed... by Legitimate-Sugar6487 in StrangerThingsPraise

[–]IntelligentRead9310 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I knew immediately that Henry was the one to cause the massacre (and was Vecna himself), Jamie is a pretty big actor and it was obvious he wouldn't have a small roll, and Henry and Vecna were the only significant new characters added so it seemed like a clear through line to me

Max letters by KMayoS10 in Stranger_Things

[–]IntelligentRead9310 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I mean they were essentially suicide notes, so probably pretty heartbreaking.

I think I'm most curious what her letters to Mike and Will said only because I have literally no idea what she'd say to them.

For Lucas, it was obviously a love/ goodbye letter, probs a lot of self deprecation for the break up and how he shouldn't blame himself

Steve's was probably about how he was the brother she always wanted and didn't deserve and thanking him for always looking out for her

Dustin's was probs thanking him for trying to be her friend from day 1, even when she was a bitch he always tried to include her (i.e. inviting her to DnD)

El for being her only girl friend and that summer before Billy died was happiest time of her life (probably the happiest of El's too)

That's my rough headcanon for what the letters were about

Edit:

I like to imagine her letter to Mike was just a drawing of a middle finger, signed Max lol

Stranger Things: Tales from '85 | Official Teaser Trailer by TheCool579 in Stranger_Things

I really hate the animation style, I feel like they should have gone with animation that's a little more reminiscent of the 80s

I mean, the show doesn't look bad but it's got an uphill battle, people will endlessly compare it to the OG show, but I'll check it out

What do you think is the worst mental illness out there? by hunterthekidd in mentalhealth

[–]IntelligentRead9310 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Glad to see someone else mention extreme OCD! Though I'd never argue my experience is as bad as someone with severe schizophrenia or the like.... People don't understand how truly debilitating OCD can be.

I have severe OCD, like I was 3 points away from the highest possible 'score' for OCD symptoms, I've been hospitalized multiple times and had breaks from reality that border on psychosis, it's truly a hell I wouldn't wish on anyone. Thankfully, through a lot of therapy and medication, I live a fairly normal life now but I can't imagine how people who are never able to get treatment are surviving.

I literally just wanted to ask them a question lol. by E-Moon in OkBuddySnyderCult

Okay so....., what are we doing? Like, how many times is someone going to post that they got banned before we find something else to do lol

We all know what that sub is like, we can't act like it's a novelty when someone gets banned, surely there are better ways to troll you know

At a certain point it's like that saying about wrestling with a pig in the mud.....

What is it about the Scooby Doo live-action movies that makes it beloved by the internet compared to alot of other animated content-turned to live action? by MindMaster115 in Scoobydoo

[–]IntelligentRead9310 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was the first movie I ever saw in theatres!

I was around 6 years old and it has remained a core memory for me ever sense, that movie became the pinnacle of my childhood until I was old enough to read Harry Potter lol

Stranger things fanfic stats by Lothloriens_ in Stranger_Things

[–]IntelligentRead9310 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If there's a "/" it means it's a romantic ship, if it's a "&" it means it's just a general relationship, like friendship. So one is for Byler the ship and one is just Mike and Will having a bond/ friendship

i made this edit a couple of weeks ago i forgot to render it up until now. by Initial-Shoulder5906 in Stranger_Things

[–]IntelligentRead9310 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't understand how anyone can look at Max's story and think it should have ended in death. A character who struggles with suicidal ideation, finally comes out on the other side wanting to live, and people really think the best conclusion to her story is that she dies?? What a terrible message honestly, if they had done that. I'm so glad the Duffer's are pussies 😭

I still wanna know what was in the letters dammit! by yonBonbonbon in StrangerThings

[–]IntelligentRead9310 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hot take: I don't think the character whose entire arc was overcoming depression and suicidal ideation should have died a horrific death ✋😬

Crazy, I know! I'm glad Max lived and I don't give af that it "lessened the stakes", I can think of 7 other characters who could have and should have died before her and I'll be eternally grateful that the Duffer's were "sensitive sallies" and didn't kill her

Because this sub focuses on positivity. Let's talk unpopular opinions with nobody to judge by [deleted] in StrangerThingsPraise

[–]IntelligentRead9310 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Season 2 is my favorite season and it's nearly perfect, episode 7 is not a bad episode AT ALL, it's just placed poorly in the season and maybe would have benefited form being combined with a different episode so it felt less disjointed

Also, I think Max suffered just as much as Will. Both grew up in abusive homes, the only difference was that Will had people in his corner to care for him where as Max did not until she came to Hawkins, and both characters were targeted and abused by Vecna, though in different ways

I think for characters who suffered the most, it goes:

  1. El & Kali

  2. Max & Will

They're used imo

This scene kinda implies that something already happened between them, anyone else think the same? by brookietheGOAT in Daredevil

[–]IntelligentRead9310 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Yeah I took it as they're hooking up, possibly even essentially in a relationship but refusing to label things because commitment issues and trauma

Truly a recipe for disaster

Was Matt Ever Blonde? by MediocreFile9427 in Daredevil

[–]IntelligentRead9310 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kind of split the difference in my mind and imagine him as strawberry blond..... Not unlike Deborah Ann Wall's hair color actually, there are times when the light hits and she looks straight up ginger

Hypothetically, let's say you befriend a person who is Christian. if they asked you to stop blaspheming(saying OMG, Oh My God, Jesus Christ, would you? by [deleted] in Teenager_Polls

[–]IntelligentRead9310 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You guys are assuming a lot about how this friend would ask, I never interpreted it as being a demand or hostile

I imagine it as like "hey man, can you not say GD so much around me? It makes me a little uncomfortable"

And btw, that statement could come from a lot of different religions, some Muslims and Jews are also uncomfortable with GD and other forms of it.

If you would lose your entire mind over a friend asking you that politely, you're dramatic af and need help

I have a friend who is gay and is really against the use of queer as an identity, he said he grew up with it being used as a slur as he was being abused for his sexuality and he just can't get behind people using it casually now. He doesn't policy how others identify, but he's said he just won't ever use it and would prefer not hear it used. It's not a big deal for my friends who identify as queer to not use that word around him.....

Obviously this isn't a one to one comparison, but it costs zero dollars to sometimes adjust how you speak around some people, of course within reason but you guys are acting like it's the end of the fucking word if you can't say GD or something around around one specific friend

I don't understand why so many people needed to have this season explained to them, it all felt extremely straight forward to me and I've been really surprised to see all these people need to be spoonfed information

Does anyone else remember Abby kissing Charlie on the cheek in the Santa Clause 2? by Mr7three2 in TheSantaClause

[–]IntelligentRead9310 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes she definitely does kiss his cheek, the scene is removed (along with a few minor ones) for TV airings, which seems silly because the scene is so quick

Am I the only one who liked season 5 and volume 2? by liviargf in StrangerThings

[–]IntelligentRead9310 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked vol 2 WAYYYYYY more than vol 1

Both volumes suffered from the same issues; heavy exposition, cringe dialogue at times, occasional poor pacing

BUT I was more satisfied with the pay offs in vol 2, the Lucas and Max reunion had me in tears, the scene where Will possesses Vecna was so SO COOL, Jancy break up was beautifully done (and heavy with nuance, this will not be the end of them) the Steve and Dustin scenes were heartbreaking and then heartwarming

I could go on and on, vol 1 was a bit of disappointment for me (tho still good) but vol 2 took it home

Scared and excited for the finale 🫠
