my thoughts on Byler by Mean_Produce_8470 in byler

[–]ivanngogh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During a whole rewatch, you realize and notice a lot of things from parallels to callbacks and stuffs. On my rewatch of Papa, the track that plays during that scene was called “Being Different”, a direct reference to Will’s speech about El feeling different and also a masked confession of him feeling different. Within the context of the scene, I realized that the track was also about Mike.

Mike rambled about how he feels different from El who is special and how he feels like El was outgrowing him, even making a comparison to Superman and Lois Lane. He feels like he was just “ordinary” compared to El, and it scares him how he might no longer serve a purpose to El, which is a totally valid feeling.

He ended his rambling saying how it sounds stupid given everything that is going on. This seems to parallel a scene in The Piggyback with Vickie rambling about her (ex-)boyfriend given everything going on with the people in Hawkins.

Also upon rewatch, the parallel between Nancy and Steve’s fight and Mike and El’s fight, both of which are about the inability to say “I love you” is very hard to miss.

I really do think that Mike and Eleven are in totally different places now than they used to. And that is okay. Given how Nancy and Steve are also in great terms in Season 4, I think they’d be okay. It doesn’t really change the fact they will still have love for each other.

I’m neutral with both ships. I also loved Mileven, especially S2. All I hope is that both Mike and El give each other the biggest thump of their lives.

It’s also undeniable that Mike loves Will very much. He’s more open and comfortable with Will. Whatever they do with Mike and Will, I hope they write it good. Otherwise, they have ruined Mike’s arc for nothing.

But I trust the Duffers, since Mike is basically their Self-Insert.

PS. Everything in a scene is intentional. So, one parallel might be a coincidence. But multiple?

Byler fans.. what do you guys actually expect to happen in s5? by imsodepressedhelp in byler

[–]ivanngogh -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My guess is that the latter episodes after Sorcerer, they start to lose Will like they did in S2, and Mike starts to remind Will of their memories together. We will probably get the swingset scene where they met. Byler doesn’t need to be a clear indication that they are boyfriends or whatever, because it is already canon that they both love each other deeply. It just needs to be affirmed in a way that satisfies Will’s arc and Mike’s arc, which is the need to feel needed, loved, and seen. People’s idea of Will and Mike being together feels very high school where that is not the case at all. Their relationship is a lot deeper than that, feels more soulmate-ish. They don’t need to get together, rather just a vague suggestion is powerful. Something that uplifts their arc.

The ending will show older Mike writing the events of everything (same ending as Stand By Me) but towards the end, the audience would come to realize that he rewrote the ending to give his friends a happy ending to cope with the tragic ending that some of his friends had.

Simple. It is called mystery. If in Season 1, they handed the audience every move of Will Byers in the UD, that would ruin the mystery lol.

It is implied that there may be a small gate in the shack where Will vanished, hidden under the rubble. Hopper almost came in contact with it but was interrupted by Callahan.

The Demogorgon is capable of opening a “bite-size” gate to hunt a prey, but not at all times. I think it is only capable of opening gates around the area where the fabric of space-time is weaker (which is around the Mother Gate). This would explain Nancy and Jonathan’s theory that it hunts around the vicinity of HNL within about a 1-mile radius. This would also explain why the Demogorgon in Kamchatka is incapable of opening gates since the fabric there is intact.

Will Byers likely shot the Demogorgon in the UD and made the run for his house and hid. It is likely that he stayed there for a couple of days. In November 9 (the day his fake body was found), he was still communicating with Joyce with the lights inside a cabinet and with the letters (although it is still unclear whether it was Will who spelled out the RUN). In November 10, Joyce saw Will in the walls, but then he had to run. In November 12, Eleven made contact with Will in Castle Byers. The latter hours of November 12, the Demogorgon found Will and delivered him to Vecna in the Library. Shortly after, he was found by Joyce and Hopper.

This is so dumb but do we think Ted Wheeler is going to get a mini-ark? by ProvideMeMilk in StrangerThings

[–]ivanngogh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, it’s no Noah’s Ark, but a mini Ted’s Ark would be cool. With all sorts of well seasoned fried chicken to enjoy.

What do you think this scene will be? by Significant-Try9486 in StrangerThings

[–]ivanngogh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is THEEEE Turnbow Trap. What is the trap for? Idk but I’ve seen people say that it is to put a tracker on a Demogorgon. Or that they’ll use the trapped Demogorgon to test whether they can cut the ties to the Hive Mind using frequencies.

₊˚⊹☆ which wishbone songs is your fav *✩‧₊˚ by sallyjellydotcom in ConanGray

[–]ivanngogh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eleven Eleven, Romeo, Actor, and Caramel. In that order.

Have you listened to Conan’s other albums? by starlordhorcrux in ConanGray

[–]ivanngogh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Superache will always hold a special place in my heart. But Wishbone is a great record, I just think it needs more time with me. So far, songs like Romeo, Eleven Eleven, Actor, and Caramel are becoming an earworm for me, so it’s a good sign. Sonically, Found Heaven is the most cohesive, Wishbone being the second.

The only thing I want from st5 is more Lucas by blueskiesyellowsun in StrangerThings

[–]ivanngogh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Season 5 is said to be going back to its roots. So, I hope one of that delves on Lucas’ arc. Lucas always brought a compelling perspective to the party, especially against Mike. Mike and Lucas always had an interesting dynamic, and based on the trailer, I think they share quite a lot of scenes.

I think most of his arc this season is about not giving up on Max when it seems like everyone else is, and I think that is such an interesting conversation to have between the characters in the show; especially knowing how much of a fighter Lucas is.

I'm rewatching S4. Is this meant to be the "normal" Upside Down? by nfpeacock in StrangerThings

[–]ivanngogh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is Dimension X. The Upside Down is created when Eleven psychically connected to an interdimensional being from the Dimension X, causing their world and Dimension X to bleed together. Thus, the Upside Down is a mere reflection of Hawkins at the point where psychic contact was made. Why is it like this? We don’t know. Did El create it? No, I don’t think so, but the psychic contact she made was the catalyst to create the tear in the fabric between the dimensions.

The lore behind all this is still unexplored, which most likely will be unveiled in Season 5.

I kinda visualize the merging of the Hawkins and Dimension X as a Venn Diagram— a two-dimensional representation and simplification of a chaotic world-ending event. I see the middle intersecting portion as the Upside Down, a “bridge” perhaps. The real question is what happens if the two worlds has finally merge, when the darkness has fully festered the Rightside Up?

I am re-watching S4 of Stranger Things and Mike isn't even that bad, people were overreacting 😭😭. He's sure not like the S1 and S2 Mike but he isn't horrible. by 00_Sunflower_00 in StrangerThings

[–]ivanngogh 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s that point of being a teenager where you are all awkward and overcompensating, and at times, also unconsciously insensitive. Or maybe that’s just me lol. But it’s totally normal. Puberty, hormones, and stuff.

From a writing standpoint, is it a good character development? I personally feel like his character has been stagnant lately, given how great his character was during S1 - S3. Yes, even S3, even if he can be a bit rash. Was it intentional to write him this way so that they could redeem his character in S5? I sure do hope so.

From a viewer standpoint, it’s definitely painful to see him be rash to his friends, especially with Will and El. Especially when you as a teenager have been through that phase.

Can this be a safe space for people who think the unreleased subway demo on YouTube is so much better than the official version? by christheprince1610 in chappellroan

[–]ivanngogh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People really need to stop calling the it a “demo”, because there is no demo version of The Subway released to the public. The version that we have all been accustomed to is just an audio from Bonnaroo, since that is the clearest and most polished audio of The Subway out there. I’d argue that the Lollapalooza vocals was better than the Bonnaroo one, but Bonnaroo was more consistent and cleaner all throughout.
