NOAH SCHNAPP & FINN WOLFHARD đ©” BEHIND THE EPISODE: 5X07 THE BRIDGE
Omoideyokocho, Shinjuku æ°ćźż
we all died and this is hell
i love you forever will byers
te amo te amo te amo te amo
i dont fucking care about what the queerbait brothers have to say. mike wheeler is a closeted gay man and in love with will byers. fuck you
mike saying âbut there is a story he can never tellâ and then later on running his thumb down the middle of his and willâs binders.
that boy was in love and he didnât work it out fast enough.
will byers i am so sorry your writers didnât understand or deserve you
they couldâve denied that byler was happening YEARS ago btw but they decided to string us along for profit
The way we were told not to believe in coincidences and then everything was either a plothole or a continuity error LMAOOOOO FUCK OFFFFFF
i SAW mike wheeler's lingering stare at will's d&d binder, and i SAW as he gently ran his finger down the spine of BOTH his and will's binders. I SAW THAT. don't you dare tell me he didn't love him
characters who arent canonically gay but whose behavior just makes no sense unless you read them as gay
MIKE WHEELER.
i genuinely need to know what the intended narrative function was here. why build an entire arc around will falling in love with mike if there was never going to be a payoff. why give them some of the most emotionally intimate conversations in the series. why the deliberate colour coding, the blocking that places them in mirrored positions, the framing that isolates them together, the cinematography that treats their scenes like romantic beats. why the shared looks, the lip glancing, the repeated visual language of longing.
and then, why have will explicitly ask about the signs that someone likes you, only for mike to immediately perform those exact behaviours back at him. these are not accidental choices. these are layered, intentional filmmaking decisions that communicate subtext whether the writers want to acknowledge it or not.
from a craft perspective, itâs incoherent. if this wasnât meant to mean something, then the show is contradicting its own visual grammar. itâs messy, and not in a narratively productive way.
All of that to just completely destroy byler in vol 2. And if it wasnât for noah schnapp, we wouldnât even have that small conversation between them in the final episode. The duffers were just going to kill byler in the coming out scene.
NONE of this makes any sense. Like wtf happened after vol 1???
