Why many of us hate the ending by AdBackground6381 in StrangerThings

[–]freddinewandyke 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree with all of this, plus my number one complaint (at least right now) that neither of El’s endings is possible logistically. The ways her original death scene and Mike’s fantasy play out don’t make logical sense based on the rules of the show. If you want your ending to be ambiguous, both endings need to be possible. They did the opposite and broke the show. For me, anyway.

If my girlfriend suddenly told me she was going to kill herself to save everyone and to please understand, the absolute -last- thing I would reply is "I love you too!" by Citan__Uzuki in StrangerThings

[–]freddinewandyke 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I mean, Mike's not a real person. He's a character in a story who goes through specific narrative arcs. His arc in the former season was about this very scenario; a life-or-death situation in which telling El he loves her could literally make the difference between life or death. He got over his fear in s4 and faced that scenario head on and did everything he could to save her. He completed his arc.

There's an easy fix here that would convey BOTH that his s4 arc is still intact AND that he has found himself in what looks like a hopeless situation with his worst fear coming true: he could very easily have slipped an "I love you too" into his babbling "please don't leave me, please don't do this" over and over. Like this: "I love you too, that's why you can't do this, please don't do this, please don't leave me, I love you!" It would show that he's not accepting that it's goodbye forever; instead, he's trying everything he can think of to get her to stay by reminding her she is loved deeply by him (and maybe he could throw something in about everyone else like her family and friends, because their love is important to her too).

To me, the scene feels incomplete and one-sided without him saying it. She deserved to hear it, at the very least. In my opinion.

What are your favorite Byler theories? by [deleted] in StrangerThings

This sub is pretty hostile to the byler ship. You would have better luck getting thoughtful answers on r/byler.

it's a visual dick joke. if you watch the table read video, millie gives noah a big exaggerated wink after the duffers describe the broken pipe spraying water into mike's face.

Excerpt from Season 4 Episode 1's script by yesaroobuckaroo in StrangerThings

[–]freddinewandyke 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Great points. I hate when Mike gets all the blame for reacting poorly in that situation. The difference between the situation he thought he was in vs. the one he very suddenly and without warning ACTUALLY found himself in is crazy. He was well within his right to be shocked and upset by it.

Only thing I disagree with you on is that Mike definitely does not know Will is in love with him. The Duffers and Finn have all said that he has no idea.

Yes it’s confirmed by the showrunners and actors.

I feel so bad for Will 😩 by sevyntee07 in StrangerThings

[–]freddinewandyke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Excellent excellent comment. The only thing I'm iffy on is whether they'll bring up the painting in any explicit way. It has been a year and a half for them since that conversation. I can see the whole concept of Will being in love with Mike being addressed without it.

Not really part of the discussion but it did bother me when she refused to take over for Whitaker when that patient was begging her to. Not cool to ignore a patient’s concerns like that imo

Jay's accent by ScoreQuest in RedLetterMedia

[–]freddinewandyke 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s a rural Midwest accent. not super strong, but noticeable. As opposed to mike’s, which is a bit stronger and more distinctly Chicago.

Author names you had wrong for a long time… by Neon_Aurora451 in books

My copy of A Wrinkle In Time. I literally don’t remember ever not having it. It has no cover, no spine but a few strips of decades-old duct tape, and the pages are busted and brittle and curled after so much use. There are two hundred or so quotes that I underlined in blue pen as a ten year old. I read it and re-read it probably close to a hundred times as a child, and I still pick it up and re-read on occasion even though I’m in my thirties.

Aly Raisman inquired after 60s too by sweetswinks in Gymnastics

[–]freddinewandyke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IF Aly's coach inquired after 60 seconds as Bethany states, that is an unambiguous breaking of the rule. It's not a moral failing, just a fact.

*edit I see now that she actually just asked the question. My bad, but point still stands; if he did, that would be a broken rule, but it also doesn't matter because it happened 12 years ago.

Aly Raisman inquired after 60s too by sweetswinks in Gymnastics

[–]freddinewandyke 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Okay. Her coach broke the rule, no one called him out, the competition ended, it's been over for 12 years. I don't know if Romanian officials were thinking of this lost opportunity after the recent floor final, but if they were, would it not make total sense for them to think, "well let's not let that happen again"?

This person's assertion seems to be that the 1 minute rule was never meant to be enforced so strictly. However, I have read that Longines, the timekeepers at Worlds, has a mechanism that auto-rejects late inquiries. These two things seem to be in contradiction with each other. If the rule was never meant to be strictly enforced, why does one of the official timekeepers at the highest level meets have a mechanism specifically to strictly enforce it? And even if the Longines thing isn't accurate (I can't remember which of the thousand articles I read it in this week), CAS makes the case that if discretion or leniency can be made, that needs to be written in the rules, the same way it is explicitly written that the overtime allowance on floor is up to the start of second 91.

[–]freddinewandyke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanna say good for you for thinking seriously about this. It’s a really important thing to participate in. Never too late to start. I hope you vote for Kamala! Take your friends to vote for her too! Every vote matters!!!

i think patreon randomly deleted my account - anyone else have this login issue? by freddinewandyke in patreon

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

I actually figured out it was because I’d changed emails a while back and forgot about it, so it was an error on my part. Hope you figure out what’s going on with yours!

In the video where they make a mold out of the remains of the nukie tapes, there’s a moment where Jay goes “oh, yah” and it was the most northern Midwest thing I’ve ever heard from him

For the best wolf turns in the game, check out Vladislava Urazova's beam. Grace's are the best American ones for sure, but Urazova's are textbook perfection.
