This documentary is basically watching 2 straight hours of the duffers arguing with each other

[starbell0]

It's nice to know there was a sane writer in the room who brought up the fact that the final fight needed to have demos and bats in it.. for it to make sense

[starbell0]

So personally one of my favorite moments from the documentary was when Ross said "I haven't even read episode 8 all the way through"

as they are actively shooting it

and it pans over to the crew, specifically one lady, who's just got this baffled oh what the fuck look on her face

they are like us

So many gems from the Stranger Things season 5 documentary that I don't even know where to begin

[starbell0]

"We went into production without having a finished script for the finale"

Yeah buddy we could tell

[starbell0]

(some Stranger Things S5 spoilers)

Watching the Stranger Things 5 Documentary and I am BAFFLED

WITHIN THE FIRST T W O MINUTES THESE ARE THE WORDS THE DUFFERS SAY

Matt: "It's terrifying because you see these shows that people love and adore, and the ending falters. And they just discard the rest of the show."

Ross: "You can't leave anything dangling. You have to wrap everything up.

Now you can argue as much as you'd like about the finale and the overall season 5 of stranger things - I have my opinion and you have yours.

but you CANNOT deny that they quite LITERALLY did EXACTLY THIS

Opinions aside - you have to admit that they loaded so many guns that didn't fire, opened so many questions they didn't answer and left so. much. dangling.

How did El recognize Will in the picture?

What happened with the painting that Will gave Mike, why isn't that acknowledged at all?

And also (SPOILER)

THEY LEGITIMATELLY SAY MULTIPLE TIMES "Oh well I guess thats for the viewers to decide."

THATS.... THATS LITERALLY LEAVING THINGS DANGLING AND NOT WRAPPING THINGS UP????

AM I INSANE???

I'm sorry, but "kids' minds being weak and easy to mold" does not work with me as an excuse as to why Will was taken. It could be why a kid was taken, but this particular kid gave Vecna the slip for days. He escaped a demogorgon multiple times, including, somehow that they still haven't explained, right after it snatched him into the Upside Down in the first place. He ran and hid for nearly a week without food, water, or a safe place to rest.

I understand that they didn't really think ahead in the story at the time they made season 1, but they still need to make it coherent with season 1.

If I'm Vecna, I'm cutting my losses and going after someone else. This kid clearly isn't worth the trouble.

Unless, for some reason we've also not been told, he is worth it. Will never seemed like some random victim. He was targeted, stalked and hunted. Maybe his powers, not the ones from Vecna or the hivemind, really are innate and something Vecna wanted.

I know there's questions about how good at writing the Duffers actually are, but are they so bad that they're leaving massive plot holes everywhere?

s5 really felt like

volume 1: go white boy go

volume 2: no white boy not like that

volume 3: white boy i've never seen anyone fuck it up like that

[starbell0]

I could literally not explain it better

[starbell0]

"I Am Not Okay With This" was criminally underrated and deserved a second season.

[starbell0]

I fear that once I watch sts5 I will be INSUFFERABLE.

prepare yourselves 😝😝

[starbell0]

lets play a little game called how many social media platforms can I successfully avoid for the next week until I can sit down and watch stranger things 5

[starbell0]

hey! friendly advice!

never EVER watch "I'm thinking of ending things" on netflix

never!

[starbell0]

~ I really can't help but wonder WHAT Rory's life could have been like

There are so many points in the show that change her pathway drastically, some maybe not so much, but it is really interesting to think about, specificalyl

When she drops out of Yale and spends time in the DAR - (this one I don't think affects her SO much, but it is something to think about)

When she turns down the ProJo job to go for the Reston Fellowship

When she turns down Logan's proposal

And a direct offshoot of the last one, having her pick of newspapers

I think when we grew up watching Rory we fully expected her to be set up for life. She had the drive, she had the skills, she certainly had the resume (I mean.. I think interning under Mitchum Huntzberger would be a huge leg up).

So it feels entirely weird to see her struggling later on in her life! Especially with her affair with Logan and her lack of money when she absolutely still has her Grandmother (and I am absolutely certain that Richard would have left her SOMETHING) and she has her (still realistically loaded) Father??

Saja boys literally made it to the Idol Awards with ONE SONG

Huntr/x had been 5 year consecutive winners but what happened to all the other groups that were supposedly also "competing" at this time 😭😭

imagine you debut a new album and it does SO well and you're on your way to the idol awards to compete with HUNTR/X and then freaking SAJA BOYS with ONE ASS SONG beat you out because of some random freak interest ???

they debuted their "Your Idol" song AT THEIR OWN CONCERT. AFTER. THE IDOL AWARDS.

"Artist Of The Year " "Best New Artists" "Song of the Year" "World Wide Icon of the Year"

WITH ONE SONG??!?!

TF 😭😭

I would've been SO PISSED

Nothing makes my blood boil more than after Chris and Lorelai are married and he becomes a DOUCHE about Luke

I get it. Look I get it. Chris doesn't trust Lorelai and trust that she is over Luke. BUT THATS MY PROBLEM!!!

HE was the one who wanted to marry her HE was the one who pushed her into it HE was the one who got into this knowing she wanted to take it slow, knowing that Luke and her had just got out of a serious relationship.

Both Luke and Chris were not okay with the other but Luke had said it.. "I'm never going to be okay with Chris being in your life." They discussed it.

And again. Luke and Lorelai had a past relationship. But if you marry someone you don't trust you get what happened: Chris not showing up when Richard was in the hospital because his phone was off and then getting upset and taking off because Luke was there.

Becoming upset with Lorelai for being hesitant about having children and pushing her because he saw her holding a kid next to Luke.

It was never gonna work, not because Lorelai didn't love him but because he never trusted her

I can't help but imainge how cool and free and amazing Lane's life could've been if the writers didn't screw it up
