yeah, any issues i had with the finale were just being a tv show nit.
as high as they set the bar with the first half of the season it was going to be nearly impossible for them to meet expectations, and i was ok with that as long as they didnt have a major fuck up that could impact future seasons. they really knocked it out of the park.
OMG what a beating
season 2 is signed apparently.
duffer brothers literally have a 30 page spec just on the shadowland alone locked and loaded.
oh and its totally a sequel.

You have a really creepy obsession with Marty...you bring him up in threads just randomly. You wrote a small novel on what a piece of shit he was. He stole your coke in Vegas. Why are you still riding his dick so hard?Originally Posted by chinamaniac

This is about stranger things or Matty Modein's hair being impeccable. Nothing else.You have a really creepy obsession with Marty...you bring him up in threads just randomly.

We pray for understanding as we all occasionally request back door action by accident, when we tried to call an electrician. It happens, it simply happens.
Rofl, not sure you realize this but YOU ARE EASILY THE MOST OBSESSED person with TYDE ON THIS FORUM or are very close to the top.You have a really creepy obsession with Marty...you bring him up in threads just randomly. You wrote a small novel on what a piece of shit he was. He stole your coke in Vegas. Why are you still riding his dick so hard?
If i had to put in an educated guess your ratio of posts about TYDE or responding to TYDE compared to anything else you post about has to be staggeringly high.
I mean i predicted EARLY in the trump thread it was going to be one of the GOAT THREADZ ANd you hopped on my nuts about it because you hate TYDE. But guess what??? I was right. TYDES TRUMP THREAD IS GOD
So now i mention his hof thread months later and your back here again mentioning a story That is almost 10 years old that you weren't even there for and has nothing to do with you but you have obsessively mentioned how many times this year?
Tyde is banned but he can probably get pms via email or im sure u can add him on facebook. . Hit him up because it seems you miss him
Tyde is god
Tydes threads are god/thread
maybe the most Stephen King-est thing I've ever seen, in a very good way. only on the 2nd episode.
since we're all on the nit bandwagon, only quibble is people making way too much noise when they are trying to be quiet.
it out stephen king's stephen king, and it does so with style to spare.
i also really, really like what im reading from the head writers.

looked up El's imdb bio. girl's got the goods, and people knew it immed.
------
Millie Brown was born in Spain, to British parents. They moved to Orlando, Florida in 2011, where Millie went to acting workshops to pass the time on a Saturday, and it was there that a top Hollywood talent scout called and told Millie's parents that "she has instincts you cannot teach." She advised Millie's parents that Millie could "mix it with the best kids in Hollywood." They packed up and drove from Orlando to Los Angeles, and within a week, Millie was meeting with the town's top children's talent agencies. She was offered representation by all the agents that she met. Within three months of being in Hollywood, Millie was offered the role of young Alice in ABC's Once Upon a Time in Wonderland. In November 2013, after just one self-taped audition, and without meeting the producers/directors, Millie was offered the role of Madison O'Donnell in BBC America's show, "Intruders."

I like it, but the fact we are all having an orgasm betrays the lack of quality supernatural TV-tail with english speaking actors. Never before has such numbered mediocrity been so highly exalted. I am chief among sinners, and it's pretty fucking pathetic.
Highly recommend Les Revenants (also on Netflix) for out of this world supernatural, creepy kid-stuff done perfectly.
I think the show is getting high praises because it's solid regardless of the supernatural creepy kid-stuff. It appeals to a broad audience without having made too many sacrifices for that popularity.
Obv good tv-shows pop up less often than they did 15 years ago and most of those that start off strong somehow turn to shit even earlier than before, but i don't think lack of good tv is the reason for the praise that Stranger Things is getting.
For my tastes it could have been faster, but i've gotten even more impatient as i've gotten older so i don't really hold their chosen tempo against the show since i'm definitely in the minority with my tastes. I need something to distract me when nothing worth mentioning is happening, since those times are still needed for character building and balance to make other stuff have an impact. Where i'm going with this is that it's rare for show to keep my interest especially when i don't particularly care about the genre.
I think to a degree, there is a good point being made by Sidewinder, eg 'give a starving man a cracker' so on. But at the end of the day, one has to judge something in terms of the elements that comprise it and how they come together as a whole, and Stranger Things definitely fucks on both points.
It's also a master class in photography, acting, character development, and the sets/props/world building was surgically on point in terms of period accuracy, which in and of itself is a stunning accomplishment and totally fucks.
And that soundtrack fucks like a motherfucker.
But Sidewinder is right; its the king of a small genre kingdom. Which makes it even more impressive to me that it came together in an industry where no one really takes chances anymore.

Season 2, please.
Les Revenants makes this show look like it was run over by a bus but the thief Winona slays me errytime.
Not quite the same, but see also see the film Caché for some some creepy goodness with kids in it.
bunch of people mentioned the soundtrack, and a classic soundtrack makes everything better. what does it cost a show like this, tho? the one that stood out the most to me was Peter Gabriel's version of Bowie's Heroes. Shit like that don't come cheap, but how not-cheap is it? Can netflix pull off stuff like this that can't be done on broadcast because of certain rules, or did they just have a big enough budget to account for such songs?
