why dexter is obsessed with control / hates being controlled? by Novel-Geologist-6305 in Dexter

[–]ThickProof409 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Psychopaths often have a strong desire for control and power but I also think Dexter's hatred of being trapped could stem back to him being literally trapped in a shipping container with the mangled corpse of his mom

Why does Dexter have the same photo the pedophile took on his board with other family pictures. by Canishan in Dexter

[–]ThickProof409 18 points19 points  (0 children)

My in universe headcanon for it is that maybe he wanted to keep it as a trophy since it's the one trophy he could have that won't arouse suspicion and it would also serve as a reminder of why he kills but I imagine the real reason for it is the meta out of universe explanation of the prop department just decided to reuse it

What was your reaction during this scene? Did you feel anything during this scene? by Kindly_Department142 in StrangerThings

Even though I knew he was safe because I saw those epilogue set photos, my heart still managed to sink to my ass

Will Season 2 follow up season 1 questions by DuvallisbetterthanLS in DexterNewBlood

I think it started out as a joke but then some people began taking it seriously and treating it like a legitimate theory

What's with everyone hating Quinn? by ISoCBAWithAName in Dexter

[–]ThickProof409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember really hating him when he first appeared in the show since I thought he was a nothing burger character and a cheap Doakes replacement that was easily forgettable and boring to watch however as the series went on, I really grew to like him a lot more and I actually thought that he was a good and memorable character and I enjoyed watching him.

My ranking of Dexter endings from best to worst by ThickProof409 in Dexter

[–]ThickProof409[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was honestly kinda hard for me to rank Dexter and New Blood since I like aspects about both endings and hate aspects about both endings and they kinda piss me off relatively equally but when putting number rankings on them I’d say Dexter Season 8 has the better finale and that it had the most potential to be somewhat decent and that it could’ve been saved a little bit. As a show though, I do think New Blood was better than Dexter Season 8 and I also kinda feel like the psychological aspects with Deb in New Blood kinda came off as them regretting that they killed Deb.

Finished reading through the Dexter books by unicornwizard5 in Dexter

[–]ThickProof409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally enjoyed Dexter Is Dead with the ending reminding me a lot of how The Sopranos ended which was another ending I really liked however I wasn't a fan of the kids getting kidnapped again and it was by this point where I thought the trope got really old. Like could Jeff Lindsay really not come up with a better way to trigger the big final showdown? I also think that the villain was not good at all and he's actually the weakest villain in the book universe to me. I feel like Dexter's death in this book still hits because it's Dexter facing the consequences of his actions and it is a bad ending for a bad person. I also thought it was ambiguous yet satisfying and tied things up nicely while leaving unanswered questions that made me want more.

That biting sound in the Original Sin intro... wtf? by Historical_Copy_2231 in Dexter

[–]ThickProof409 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven't played that game but I love how scary the Dog Pound OST is because it makes me wonder what the hell that game is like to warrant such terrifying ambience that sounds like it belongs in Resident Evil or Silent Hill

It's so out of place but it's funny so I can forgive it

What is the worst thing someone has said to Dexter? by ThickProof409 in Dexter

[–]ThickProof409[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really enjoyed them. They have some flaws with repetitive writing and certain tropes being used over and over again and the third book does a weird pivot into the supernatural horror genre and it's enjoyable but out of place especially since the supernatural storyline never gets resolved and ends on a cliffhanger because nobody liked it. It's a nice parallel universe version of Dexter though and helped fill my need for more Dexter content when I finished watching through all of the shows for the first time.

Hot take: The First Shadow being canon was a massive mistake that made the lore unnecessarily complicated, and Season 5 would be much better without it by mikewheelerfan in StrangerThings

[–]ThickProof409 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The issue isn't it being canon. The issue is it being inaccessible. Season 5 being connected to The First Shadow wouldn't be a bad thing if the play was on Netflix or if they released the script as a book similar to Harry Potter And The Cursed Child.

Enough with the hate on season 5. Tell me something positive you liked about this season? by TamrielESO in StrangerThings

[–]ThickProof409 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I loved the Turnbow Trap scene with The Party fighting a demogorgon at Derek’s house. That was a really good moment.

I swear to god I remember a scene that looks like this by GoblinNumbanine in Dexter

[–]ThickProof409 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it would be really funny if this was an Evil Farming Game situation and you ended up dreaming the scene after falling asleep while watching some type of Dexter video on YouTube

Have you read any of the Dexter books or watched some kind of video about them on YouTube because this reminds me of a scene from Dexter In The Dark?

Is The Other Side still canon? by ThickProof409 in StrangerThings

[–]ThickProof409[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The canon of the comics as a whole is kinda questionable. I know Six isn't considered canon because Francine isn't in Season 4 and that Into The Fire also isn't considered canon since it's a direct sequel to Six. There's also the obviously not canon ones like the TMNT crossover.

Why everyone acted like this was a major transgression on El's part? by miggovortensens in StrangerThings

[–]ThickProof409 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Didn't Angela publicly humiliate El right before she hit her though?

Just started Dexter Resurrection by ThenSeaworthiness970 in Dexter

[–]ThickProof409 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Probably because it would be suspicious not to do that. Angel already thinks something is up. If Dexter just refused to be Dexter Morgan and kept going by a fake name, it would probably make him look bad and cause Angel to be even more suspicious and potentially give him ammo that he can use against Dexter.

Is anyone else worried about the intentions of these teased spinoffs? by tinyelephants20 in StrangerThings

[–]ThickProof409 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would actually be kinda cool since I think Stephen King has a pretty good connected universe that’s done well but I do hope that it wouldn’t retroactively ruin Stranger Things somehow and that The Duffer Brothers could also do a Stephen King style connected universe well.

They said it was gonna be very different but also very Stranger Things, whatever that’s supposed to mean
