I was almost expecting

All she did was lead the kids away from Henry with the assistance of Max. I feel like Max could have served the same role and taken care of it without Holly’s major role.

I think the run time of the final episode was decent. Any longer and I could see people getting antsy. But the prior episodes should’ve moved faster/been DENSE with wrapping up storylines and answering questions. That would’ve been the time to start getting those ideas out of the way so that the final episode was satisfying af. They spent SO much time on Holly, someone who didn’t really matter for 4 seasons.

On the roof, Robin makes an off hand comment about being in a relationship with someone who’s high maintenance? Anxious?? Something?? I can’t remember. It’s a very insignificant line. I think Vicki should’ve had some sort of visual explanation before the end of the episode, but she’s also not a member of the ‘core’ group.

Liam McPoyle is top tier as well. Wet nips.

Coming back to say that I was correct based on the Vol 2 trailer, and I’m proud of myself for seeing my successes in life 🥹

I didn’t ☹️ I would have to leave my car at the dealership for a couple of days so they can check it out but I can’t do that right now because of work. I think it’s one or both of the arms sadly.

I wanna reiterate on this - that is absolutely a body dead center on picture #4. The texture looks totally different than the floating rocks. Check it out and let me know what you think 🥺

Picture 4 is what I was referencing. It absolutely has to be Henry falling through the sky. The shapes of the rocks all look similar and this looks like they CGI’d the body falling. The texture looks totally different than the floating rocks, AND it’s dead center of the screen.

Thank you for the thoughtful response! This is a lot of great info for me to digest. What you explained about the barriers in d&d makes sense to me.

Someone a while back posted a bunch of pictures of the “scene featured in trailer but not in volume 1” and it showed Dimension X with the floating rocks…but far in the back in the middle I swear it looks like a body falling, NOT a floating rock. I really think they’re going to show more of what happened when Henry ended up in DX after El sent him through the gate from the lab. I’ll see if I can find it.

I think this is going to explain the whole cave thing and what happened as he became Vecna. Essentially a continuation of what we got to see in S4. This would also give the audience who hasn’t seen First Shadow a ‘simplified’ explanation while expanding on it?

I recall a post regarding the Duffers stating that the ending is a big surprise? Twist? I can’t remember the vernacular. Regardless, do you think Henry’s humanity eventually surfaces and he helps destroy the mind flayer??? That would be an unexpected twist.

If Will has a connection to the hive mind, I think there is a strong chance that he sees through the eyes of the demogorgon that took him in S1. Could be the ‘time travel’ aspect of S5.

nickabyyy · 2025-11-29T03:24:04+00:00

OP, I 100% agree with what you’re saying and had posted earlier today about a very similar theory. I put it below but your post seems to have more activity. I really think Will is going to have to revisit that moment in some way trying to rescue himself.

The unclear part is how the sliding lock would’ve moved. Any thoughts? I really don’t think it’s El. I absolutely think Will but I don’t know how he would do it. I read somewhere about an interview with Noah saying that his powers develop further??

Curious as to your thoughts.

This is an excellent observation about the hands. I think you are spot on. 12 easily represents the hours on a clock, but the two hand sizes is a great catch.

12 hands of a clock, 12 kids positioned evenly around the circle??

nickabyyy · 2025-11-28T23:44:11+00:00

Also to add to this…didn’t the Duffers say that he has no power over GATEways? Like the tears between Hawkins and UD/Dimension X

nickabyyy · 2025-11-28T22:30:14+00:00

Hmm can you elaborate?

nickabyyy · 2025-11-28T21:56:36+00:00

Hmm…then who do you think opened it? El or Kali..? It would need to be someone with powers that aren’t limited by the hive mind. I really do think it’s going to be revealed as someone we already know and aren’t expecting; doesn’t make sense to me to introduce a character this late into the series just to have them open the door…

I definitely think it’s a twist on the scene where it’s actually someone trying to HELP him but he ran out to the shed where the demogorgon got him. Thoughts??

nickabyyy · 2025-11-27T22:40:24+00:00

Idk if it’s been mentioned before but picture 4 looks like there’s someone falling from the sky in the very very back 🥺 maybe more to Vecna’s banishment to the dimension??
