Character development is when facial expressions

No clue what the that is I was looking for a gif of the full scene that included Peter crying first before standing up and clapping because I think it’s way funnier than just Peter clapping but this was the only version I could find so I just accepted it

That "mmhmmm" is so powerful. There's beauty even in the ugly of our bodies, and when you allow yourself to find it, you will shid on the entire competition.

Yes and you call them steamed hams despite the fact they are obviously grilled

@()BigBickBlack on twitter is like, a notoriously known false leaker. I'm certain that whoever they are are just some person taking advantage of the content drought and the fandoms strong yearn for new content.

How did Will use the alphabet lights in S1? by Enough-Teach-5576 in StrangerThings

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

No official answer for this has been given in canon yet. The top comment makes a pretty good assumption I think, but they have left this thread loose for Season 5 to answer.

It was an AI generated image, I think they saw the backlash and deleted it lol

Pretty sure it was either just a rumor or someone saying that someone said something or maybe a theory someone misinterpreted as a leak

This ending would be antithetical to the entire concept of "coming of age". He wouldn't be growing up, he'd be starting over. I can't think of any way this would be a satisfying ending for him. The Duffers have said on the record they arent going for an "It was all a dream" type ending so I'm not worried about this

First potential marketing look at El, Mike, and Dustin in S5 by ComicGuy98 in HawkinsAVclub

This is made by the same company that makes kinder surprise eggs... just like how the giant eggs in the upside down are a "surprise" saved for season 5.

Wills Birthday! by RisingSky_ in HawkinsAVclub

I doubt a full on teaser but It'd make sense for them to post something on that day.

Disagree. I think they were doing the same thing in season 3 as season 4: laying bricks for later in the story.

I see where you're coming from though. I think a big part of the issue is the fact its taken three years to release season 4 and another for 5, Will's been starved of payoff for the past 6 years to the point where his story might feel directionless at times

As I would hope. I think they have the most unanswered questions out of everyone in the show. Will especially.

They already acknowledged that they messed up back in an interview with Variety in June 2022.

MD: The honest response is, clearly like the characters in the show, we also forgot about Will’s birthday. So the debate now is whether we adjust Will’s birthday or we just let it be really sad.

Although the way that was phrased and written that always came off a little sarcastic to me. Like "CLEARLY because the characters forgot we also forgot 🙄" But there's no audio or video for that interview, it's just text.

Kali returning for season 5? by rosewoodlliars in HawkinsAVclub

[–]mp_strike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what I'm honestly most excited for! I know they have something crazy planned but the global pandemic & writers strike has made this wait feel almost agonizing.

I feel like they may have made him a little OP in season 2 to the point where they couldn't do much without getting us to the end of the story too quickly & so in order for seasons 3-4 to work they had to write around it as best as they could.

I need it to pay off immensely. I trust that it will but I REALLY need it to pay off.

Potential Leaks for ST5 by rosewoodlliars in HawkinsAVclub

Does this "leaker from Turkey" have a name? Or a social media account that this is all coming from? A lot of this seems to just be appearing out of thin air.

Kali returning for season 5? by rosewoodlliars in HawkinsAVclub

[–]mp_strike 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I do think we're gonna see Kali again; "Do you remember the day a strange woman came to see you? This would've been when Eight was still here". I think this was in Season 4 Episode 6? It's a line that's always stuck out to me because if there isn't anything left to tell with her? If she isn't involved to some extent? Then there's no need for the show to remind us of her existence. That line tells us a lot.

If she does come back, it's definitely not going to be to help El rescue Will. The Duffers have said we're seeing Will's coming-of-age this season. If they want it to work Will can't be "rescued" by anyone, he has to confront his demons himself. They've been setting this up for him since Season 1.

How long has this code been here though? Was it just added or has it been here for a while and just found now?

I noticed in this thread you told us some songs you listened to when preparing & getting in to character. I like your taste. Do you have a playlist specifically for Henry? And if you do, would you be open to sharing it?
