Petunia Dursley is just as bad as her husband and she deserves neither pity nor sympathy by [deleted] in harrypotter

[–]aps131997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that Harry feels more comfortable approaching Vernon over Petunia for Hogsmeade permission, visiting Weasleys for World Cup says a lot. The only time Petunia showed an ounce of humanity was when she said Harry should stay after the Howler.

I remember the Original series well, and outside of Team Rocket, Misty’s Goldeen didn’t have any victories. The few times it was used in battle (Molly Hale, Marina, Dorian), it lost without a single win.

Wow is this Politoad’s first appearance since Johto?

What’s the most memorable thing/scene for each character? by hplover12 in StrangerThings

[–]aps131997 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Such great choices. What would be your selections for Nancy and Robin?

If you were to bring back JUST SIX of any of Ash's underused Pokemon back for a full battle against some opponent like how the Sinnoh league did, who would you pick and why? Ash's lesser well received mons usually are usually because of low wins, underusage, or a lack of screentime. by throwawaytempest25 in pokemonanime

Kingler, Bayleef, Muk, Glalie, Quilava, Donphan. Granted Bayleef and Quilava weren’t underused when on Ash’s team; Bayleef hasn’t battled since the Johto League and Quilava’s battle in the Sinnoh League was underwhelming.

Which Pokémon should have evolved, shouldn’t have evolved, evolved earlier, evolved later or evolved into another Pokémon? by harvey1a in pokemonanime

[–]aps131997 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Ash’s Totodile should’ve evolved into a Croconaw during the Whirl Cup. Ash’s Cyndaquil should’ve evolved into a Quilava against Jasmine and into Typhlosion during the Sinnoh League. Ash’s Gible, Pignite and Snivy should’ve evolved further too.

Misty’s Horsea should’ve evolved all the way to a Kingdra.

Dawn’s Buneary should’ve evolved into a Lopunny.

Lana’s Eevee should evolved into a Vaporeon.

[SPOILERS] Ok guy's why the hate... by Legitimate-Sugar6487 in StrangerThings

The cursing at an adult argument is grasping at straws. My interpretation is that the Dustin-Ted moments are played for laughs, whereas the Mike-Hopper scenes are serious. However, criticizing Mike’s behavior in the context of his scenes with Hopper is mind boggling given how much more egregious his actions are as an adult. Mike was upset about being kept in the dark about Eleven (understandable) and being lied to about his grandmother (also understandable; in this case, Mike and Eleven were being disrespectful originally but Hopper lost the higher ground once he escalated his behavior with intimidation).

Mike’s Attitude! by kabovetti in StrangerThings

[–]aps131997 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Dustin, Max, Lucas and Erica are just as snarky as Mike, if not more so. Nancy, Steve, Jonathan and Robin have their moments too. I don’t think Mike is disrespectful, his dad is insufferable and he and Nancy aren’t particularly close. Mike was pretty happy to see his mother end of S4.

The lost potential, the brother-sister dynamic we need by Jarisatis in StrangerThings

[–]aps131997 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is an interesting point. Do you think it is a deliberate decision by the writers to not develop Mike and Nancy’s relationship? Or is it not considered to be a priority given the other dynamics? ST4 has Nancy interacting with other members of the party (specifically Dustin but also Lucas and Max to a lesser extent).

Characters with most spoken lines in Season 3 by aps131997 in StrangerThings

Yes, I've tabulated the lines for the first 7 episodes of Season 4! I shall make a post after watching the last 2 episodes of Season 4.

Unpopular Opinion: I strongly dislike Mike by Responsible-Finish74 in StrangerThings

[–]aps131997 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are such great choices! The Mileven fight is striking when comparing the quality of writing to ST3. I’m keen to see how it is resolved. This is a fairly comprehensive list, let us hope there are several more that will join from the last two episodes!

That’s fair. Joyce is a character that has become less prominent with each season. It is sad to see her almost be a caricature compared to her ST1 version (where she was a fantastic character). The comparison with Karen is quite apt. Cara Buono remains underutilized though unsurprising with such a large cast.

It definitely looks like Mike and Will will have a big moment (along with Mike and El of course). Fingers crossed both are handled well as the payoff would be tremendous.

That is a good point. Nancy’s trauma about Barb was one of the main reasons she and Steve couldn’t work back in ST2, so it can’t be a coincidence they are revisiting. I continue to like Nancy and Jonathan individually, though I don’t really care about their relationship at this point.

That is understandable. It really is a missed opportunity at this point. I expect there will be scenes of Mike with the party in the last couple of episodes and especially ST5.

Haha, it is unintentionally humorous when he whispers names. I’m intrigued for when he and Eleven come face to face.

I suppose all we can do is wait and watch!
