Stranger Things Season 3 Episode 3 First Time Watching 'The Case of the Missing Lifeguard'

[@chicagovader2188]

Listen to your mom! Christine is a really good movie, directed by John Carpenter and based on a Stephen King novel of the same name. Great reaction btw! Oh the actress that plays Robin is the daughter of Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke.

[@bryanwood1004]

Yes, listen to your mom. Smart lady and good taste in movies. You and Jay reacting to Christine on your movie channel would be awesome because it's my personal favorite movie

[@jessortiz8181]

I have mentioned Christine before though. I think that you would enjoy Christine. Another movie you would enjoy that has another famous actor in it you like which is Val Kilmer in it portraying the Iconic Jim Morrison lead singer of the Doors in an adaptation biopic of Jim Morrison's life in the 60's made by Oliver Stone. Could you imagine Val Kilmer playing Jim Morrison Amber? You would enjoy The Doors as well as Christine. I love Christine cuz she is a rare Plymouth classic car of the late 50's but restored in the late 70's. Killing anyone who crosses Arnie that owns Christine.

[@CathleenMJennings80]

Yes, Season 3 was mid80s and the colors were crazy! The 70s were so muted and earthy and it took awhile for the 80s to move past that color scheme. That's when it all came together: fashion, music, tv, toys, and movies. It was a phenomenal time to grow up.

[@justjasyn292]

One of my favorite songs is by Cher "If I could turn back time" in it, there is a lyric "prides like a knife it can cut deep inside, words are like weapons they wound sometimes".. I know it didn't make it into the edit, but when Mike said "It's not my fault you don't like girls" and wills reaction to it, was how it was for me as a kid and I carried those words in my head for many many years, that it was my fault. I finally got out of that mindset later. My heart always breaks for Will 😢

[@ruthharris6783]

Robin is the daughter of Ethan Hawke and Uma Therman

[@Cassxowary]

Thurman* and Chrissie was played by Grace van Dien aka Casper van Dien & Carrie (Robert’s granddaughter) Mitchum’s daughter but they’re still their own person

[@nberrypatch02]

If you haven't noticed by now, The Duffer Brothers are huge fans of Stephen King novels & the film adaptations. They have said that Stranger Things is basically a love letter to all things related to Stephen King. They draw a ton of inspiration from his work. Eleven is modeled after the character, Charlie, in "Firestarter". The scene of Dustin & Steve walking along the train tracks last season is an homage to the movie "Stand by Me", which is based on Stephen King's story "The Body". Episode 4 in season one is titled 'The Body" & the list goes on... Even the title font used for "Stranger Things" logo is the same font used for many of King's novels. So your mom suggesting the movie "Chirstine" is spot on perfect, as it is adapted from another one of King's stories. By the way, Billy's car is a 1979 Chevey Camero Z28 while Christine is the name of a 1958 Plymouth Fury, so there is quite a difference between the two, as they look nothing alike. But the camera angles used to introduce Billy's car are a reference to Stephen King's "Christine." You should also check out "Firestarter" (1984), with a young Drew Barrymore. Her character is the inspiration for Eleven, as well as a call back to MK-Ultra, the governemnt experiment that El's mother, Terry, was a part of.

[@deedoublejay]

Felix the cat is a classic cartoon character. We had one of those clocks in my first house.

[@DeadsySedai]

Will had to grow up way faster than the others because of what he went through, so he wants to go back.

[@hartjohnson2975]

This is my favorite season. It hits every teen memory of mine (I was born a year before Steve, two before Nancy and Jonathan). But the music, the Russian underlying stuff, the mall, the clothes... it is much more magnified in nostalgia terms.

[@hartjohnson2975]

Plus Wynonna Rider was in every 3rd movie in the mid 80s.

[@smalltownfamadventuresmore5109]

My grandpa and my aunt live 2 hrs away from Savannah GA. my mom, me and my kids went down to visit them in 2021 before that we stopped in Atlanta GA at Gwinnet Mall that's where StarCourt Mall was filmed. We didn't get to go in as then it was being used as a Covid Testing Site. hopefully in a few years we can go back and this time walk inside.

[@TheRepublican777]

Yes, she is the daughter of Uma Thurman and Ethan hawke

[@Rocker1983]

For me, every season of this show gets better and better.

[@missywireback]

Love your reactions! Now I’m off to watch Yellowstone with Jay 😂

[@oldnerdreviews]

After already seeing all seasons out so far, watching you enjoy season 3, all I can say is buckle up. Season 4 is darker and more intense.

[@Judymoe]

Ah, "Christine"! You should watch it with your mom, it'll be a treat. :) Heh, heh.

[@catmanduu66]

I grew up in the mall. Whenever my sister and mom dragged me along for shopping I would tell them to leave me at the hobby shop, later the record store while they did their thing. Once I could drive and the video arcade was in the mall that's where I spent most of my time. We didn't have one of the cool two story malls but it did have three fountains.

[@shelbyatwell5883]

Yes! I definitely had a HUGE crush on Ralph Macchio, still do.

[@patrickfoster8977]

Christine definitely a great movie, check it out, love to see your reaction

[@lisawillett546]

I just recognized the flute song playing while the boys roleplay. It's from The Dark Crystal!

[@chrisharris5497]

Hi Amber, I just realised it's been about a month since you put a film up on the movie channel. I hope Jay is ok, this time of year can be awful even if to the outside world everything seems perfect. Anyways I hope the big man is ok and everything is fine. I hope you, Jay, and the kids have a great Christmas x

[@Fairygrl_TW]

Hey sis, hope all is well. I was always the rocker, hippy chic so I wasnt crushing on Karate Kid, but my sister really crushed in him all the way thru til the 2000 when she passed. Christine is a great movie, I think u would really enjoy it. Awwww, Poor Hop, hes always so lost, gets jealous, gets tongue tied, etc. lol. Just so kind hearted, means well. Robin is very smart and the gang wouldnt have figured it out as fast without her, Altho I think Dustin would have eventually. Nancy is a true Nancy Drew Detective. My feelings go all over the place with Billy. I gate him, feel sorry for him, etc. Thanx so much, stay groovy, Peace

[@lovelygirl10158]

I had the pink getto blaster but mine was a double cassette. Good God. I wish that I had kept it. They came in different colors to. Always wanted a purple one.💜

[@MarkRichter-j2l]

who doesn't loooooooooove Ambers Dead shirt!!!

[@jainthorne4136]

You definitely need to watch Christine. Excellent Stephen King novel and movie.

[@Cassxowary]

the missing lifeguard is Heather not Billy, Felix the cat, old cartoon, and the guy who attacked Hopper is the dude from the restaurant s bar when he was waiting for joyce to show up, and Heather’s dad is Nancy & Jonathan’s boss, and no, not evil…

[@michelleimeson3701]

The movie your mom wants you to watch had great music, and the songs were well placed . Another Stephen King movie ❤

[@fejbear]

You should watch Christen it a great movie

[@annmariemills1554]

Your mom has great taste in movies. Another movie called "The Car" from 1977 is a great movie too😎

[@it-really-hurts2092]

I don't think this is a spoiler but..... I reckon Will is Special.

[@KQwest98]

Cool shirt, Amber! Cool video as well!

[@coffeecakes1858]

I agree Amber. Hopper is very masculine, rugged. Ain't nothin wrong with that!

[@scottvanhille5688]

Yes, Amber, please see Stephen King's Christine as well as Cujo, they both came out in 1983. I'm trying to get you to watch his Firestarter (1984) film with a young Drew Barrymore. Poor Hop, this whole thing with teens in being a Father figure is quite strange to him. I was mentally rocking out to Teena Marie's "Lovergirl" as well lol. Thought I heard The Dark Crystal music in there.

[@pfcampos7041]

Invasion of the body snatchers...

[@RallyReviews]

yall should watch "christine". It was pretty good i thought.

[@joealvarez8733]

Please, check out Christine!!! And there's also another movie kinda similar in theme loke Christine about big semi trucks called Maximum Overdrive.... AC⚡DC did the song Who Made Who for the soundtrack.... 🤘👽🤘

[@lovelygirl10158]

I can't wait for you to fall in love with Robin just like I did because she's one of the best!!!❤❤

[@ringo365]

Great show

[@carriesmith742]

1:25 you need to react to Cobra Kai. The final part of the final season aires February.

[@shelbyatwell5883]

Agreed! But I think they need to finish the movies or else characters and references won’t make sense or won’t land. Cobra Kai is my favorite show!

[@carriesmith742]

@shelbyatwell5883 i didn't realize they hadn't seen them all. Yes, definitely makes CK more enjoyable!

[@shelbyatwell5883]

@@carriesmith742 yea, they’ve only seen the first one. It’s been a while though. Cobra Kai is so awesome! I don’t want it to end.

[@jeffjaeger739]

I'm guessing that your current viewing is actually way ahead of the videos posted here... and so I assume you're almost caught up with Stranger Things. May I suggest that you add Yellowstone, next? if you haven't seen it already! (I actually want to recommend Nikita, since I'm a huge Maggie Q fan... but I understand that series may not be as popular as other things you could check out)

[@Rocker1983]

Yes! Love it.

[@erikbailey2525]

Whenever Joyce is on a mission we alway called it "Joyce mode".

[@FLQueerLiberal1982]

Yes, we all had a crush on Ralph Macchio. But some of us had to keep that part of us a secret in the late 1980s/early '90s. I mean, I didn't even turn 8 until 1990 - but even then... I was aware of who I was, AND I knew it very was much not accepted, just like poor Will. So I feel really bad for Will. Not just throughout the series, but particularly in this episode when Mike makes that awful comment. He knows his friend is different, that Will doesn't like girls, and already gets bullied for it. Will needs friends to NOT use that in an argument.

[@jfarnsworth75]

Watch Christine !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@alexharbison4411]

Nice reaction...........Not as good as Rob Squad but it'll do in a pinch.

[@jdubya30062]

Ms Amber, you will continue to be impressed by Harper. Fun review

[@paulc8588]

love ya amber

[@kenleyjohnson7322]

What happened to Rob squad movie reactions channel? I need more new videos from them together not on their own channels I don’t understand what’s going on??

[@Shellgrit]

No they are not saying much. Somebody said Amber mentioned they are divorcing

[@ruthharris6783]

It’s actually about Heather

[@Dansull123]

@4:41 "what were yall doing in the 80s' Cocaine, they did LOTS of cocaine. Christine is based on a Stephen King novel, who admittedly did a LOT of cocaine.

[@robertbendinelli9843]

I am glad Amber is really liking this season, I believe it is the weakest of the seasons.

[@AmberReacts24]

Do you? So far I like that it’s darker. The other seasons were great, so we will see!

[@oldnerdreviews]

I agree

[@robertbendinelli9843]

@@AmberReacts24 Season four is just amazing, maybe I am bias. I do love reliving it through you eyes. Thank you for watching this GoT and Breaking Bad.

[@ThePharaz]

Don't watch Christine (1983) unless you want a phobia of sports/muscle cars.
