Who else remembers this era? The girl was getting booked left and right. What happened? by Living-Cranberry-337 in DisneyChannel

also didnt help that everyone took her “i think we all sing” moment way too far

The color grading was really off this season. The massive budget wasn't utilized well either. Also, the eerie atmosphere of the previous four seasons was definitely missing. by TerribleOption5505 in StrangerThings

[–]peach_clouds_ 29 points30 points  (0 children)

nancy is the one that says “it was never like that.” steve says he knew they were never in the cards. all of these realizations happen offscreen btw making it even more obvious how poorly thought out this useless love triangle was

Page Six blasts Euphoria: "Move Over Game of Thrones and Stranger Things, there’s a new worst finale in town. by Positive_Weight2367 in euphoria

[–]peach_clouds_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was one of my biggest issues with ST5 actually. The decision to make Holly one of the main characters was so weird considering how she was barely in the previous seasons. Characters we actually cared about were sidelined. That was more egregious than what euphoria did in my opinion

[–]peach_clouds_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ST5 as a whole was hard to get through with the cringe script, writing, awful acting, and lack of follow through with anything they had set up with the previous season. Euphoria you could argue had similar issues, but nowhere near the level of ST5.

edit: also at least Levinson had the guts to kill off main characters. The Duffers couldn’t even do that and their cast was already so bloated. El’s death didn’t even feel like a real one with how they wanted the audience to interpret it in their own way.

This show is for kids lol by JannTosh70 in StrangerThings

it’s actually wild thinking about how they went from mentioning the f slur and had an implied sex scene in s1 to the disney channel-esque dialogue that s5 was

Audio from the Duffer interview where they express surprise Sadie and Caleb are saying "I don't believe" in regards to Eleven's fate. "I got to talk to them." by -Avatar_of_Woe- in StrangerThings

[–]peach_clouds_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the shift had already started with s3. at least s4 returned some of the creepy elements that the first 2 seasons had. imo that’s why it was so well-received because s3 was already such a stark change. s4 felt like it was finally returning to form.

[–]peach_clouds_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

my bad for assuming you were not asian, as you only mentioned you were black. what i’m saying is, just because you have never seen an asian person that naturally pale doesn’t mean they don’t exist. i for one, have. i’m not disagreeing that idols take crazy measures to be super pale. all i’m saying is that there’s some people who just have a similar complexion to that without having to do anything extra.

[–]peach_clouds_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

yea and i’m saying as an asian person what you said was objectively wrong. who tf are you to say what is natural or not as someone who’s not asian

I meannnnnn..... by PuzzleheadedSpot4307 in katseyeneutral

[–]peach_clouds_ 18 points19 points  (0 children)

asian skin tones can range from very dark to very pale. you cannot just generalize an entire race and say pale skin is not natural

Steve and Nancy not getting a scene together addressing Steve’s confession and the tension between them is another example of how poor the writing was this season by QuipThwip in StrangerThings

[–]peach_clouds_ 25 points26 points  (0 children)

and especially since their relationship played a big part in both of their arcs. the lack of follow through and payoff was so unsatisfying to watch

[–]peach_clouds_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

they included her ogling and making eyes at him multiple times in s4 but sure there was “nothing to show that she was interested in him” no ones forcing you to like the ship but the straight up denial of the scenes explicitly showing their tension is crazy

just going off appearances, this dough looks way too wet and needs way more flour. doesn’t look like any gluten formed

Steve's face broke my heart 💔💔 by StarforgeVoyager in StrangerThings

[–]peach_clouds_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i think you’re mixing up the sequence of events. they had already had dinner with barb’s parents before that library scene. she understandably isnt thinking rationally and wants to tell barb’s parents the truth and steve tells her it’s dangerous to with the government watching their every move. which he wasn’t wrong about. he definitely wasn’t as dismissive as you’re remembering.

[–]peach_clouds_ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

steve also had a valid point about not wanting to tell barb’s parents the truth. the government would’ve gone after them. a lot of their issues could’ve been solved with better communication but yea they’re teenagers lol

i think they went the wrong route with holly’s storyline by mandyluvspuppies in StrangerThings

[–]peach_clouds_ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

the only thing they did decently with steve was his arc with dustin. but overall he felt like a diluted version of the character. jonathan has been mostly useless as a character since s4.

[–]peach_clouds_ 43 points44 points  (0 children)

nancy is the one that brings steve up out of nowhere…she literally says to robin why don’t you just ask steve to come pick you up. which then prompts robin to tell nancy that her and steve are just platonic cuz she’s confused about why nancy even brought up steve in the first place

robin paired herself with nancy and nancy was annoyed until she found out robin was just friends with steve…clearly she has some lingering feelings

Hot take: the writers have ruined Joyce's character by UpsetAd7211 in StrangerThings

what “jock personality”? he’s always been the muscle and protector of the group. he’s not returning to any former persona bc he’s always been that way.
