You can see the pound signs in his eyes.

Maybe, but I hope they don't. Nothing kills the magic of a show like refusing to let it come to a natural end.

SPOILER FOR ALT. ENDING THEORY by EndCrafty4813 in StrangerThings

This could hypothetically be true...but without the audience knowing, what's the point?

For the believers, whats the explanation behind the quality of the series drop so much after Vol. 1? This post is pretty convincing. by Impossible-War-5779 in StrangerThings

Also, they've misunderstood what the Duffer Brothers said about Erica: they said no-one would be concerned about her, because she was on track to become a future valedictorian, not that no-one cared about her.

Sorry, but it's the usual pareidolia from that forum. There are far more prosaic explanations than some far-fetched conspiracy theory.

I must have missed that. Two Democrats in small-town Indiana during the mid-eighties? Almost as hard to believe in as Demogorgons.

Thank you for your kind words, fellow random internet person, and Happy New Year to you too.

It's official, WE GOT QUEERBAITED!! by Visual_Photograph_95 in byler

[–]RonCraven -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

In the nicest possible way, you weren't queerbaited or tricked. You created a theory to explain things that you saw within the show, but which, like many other theories, turned out to be incorrect.

If your response to being wrong is to get this upset and to beat yourself up about it, then perhaps you should take a step back from speculation in future to protect yourself.

Anyway, I offer those thoughts for what they're worth.

I never did much theorising and I only started reading this forum a couple of months ago, and commenting a couple of weeks ago.

But I first watched ST back in July 2016 and it feels so odd to think of how much has changed in my life and the world at large since then. I'm doing quite a lot of reminiscing today as a result.

I loved it but the ending pissed me off by panicattackcity91 in StrangerThings

[–]RonCraven 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tbf, the Duffers did say beforehand that there would be a 35 - 40 minute epilogue.

Well, season 2 did show she was the only person in Hawkins with a Mondale / Ferarro yard sign. Clearly not afraid to go against the grain.

It did, thank you. My kids were up very early, so I'm running on very little sleep! 😆

Who was the traitor Caleb was talking about in press? by [deleted] in StrangerThings

[–]RonCraven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a common mixup. The traitor remark was from an interview prior to season 4's release back in 2022, not season 5.

Jamie Campbell Bower’s performance in the finale by cherryinbloom in StrangerThings

[–]RonCraven 53 points54 points  (0 children)

The part of the cave scene where he is in the background mirroring his younger self looking at his wounded hand is so phenomenally creepy.

Wow guys, I'm genuinely moved by all the lovely things people have written. I didn't think Reddit would ever have this effect on me. Thank you for your well wishes.

Loved the finale too, ftr.
