[@judaihyuga]

All kudos to Noah (Will's actor) this season. During that scene where he was screaming while strapped down, he was given the option to only do the audio once and they said they'd just dub over any new takes. Noah insisted on doing it over for every take because he wanted it to be as authentic as possible. Poor kid shredded his voice, but he stuck to it.

[@KingsBard]

Fun fact! Sean Astin is the one it was specifically asked for his death scene to be drawn out. Also they played "Every Breath You Take" for the transition to the Upside Down because it's notorious for having creepy stalker-ish lyrics.

[@middle-aged-cal]

also it's a very 80's horror movie cliché the way Bob's demise was executed and telegraphed, done more as tribute than for dramatic effect. However, I can understand why it may not land with modern audiences in the same way.

It's a cute love theme for Max & Lucas given that she still specifically calls him "stalker." 😝

[@carlossaraiva8213]

It even makes sense in-universe because back then most people didnt caught to the fact the song is about an obsessive controlling abuser or stalker - much to Sting's changrin - and it was often mistaken for a romantic song and played at high school balls and marriages.

[@hickorydickoryhk]

@@middle-aged-cal Thank you for pointing that out. It’s less a case of the creators unintentionally hammily showing their hand, and more a case of them paying homage to that style of storytelling from a period of time, as the whole show is. It’s still hammy of course, but that’s the intention and the appeal. It’s nostalgic for those who lived through the period, and to a lesser degree people who have enjoyed movies from the period at a later time despite not living through it.

[@pajander]

@@hickorydickoryhk A bad cliché is still just a bad cliché, it being intentional doesn't make it better. Season 1 didn't need in-your-face hamminess and still worked fine as an homage.

Almost everyone hated when "Jane" 11 went to Chicago, but like you mentioned, it reminded me so much of the Xmen comic book in the 80's.

I think the problem is the placement of the episode itself. It seriously interupts the pacing of the main plot, which is why I think most people were so hard on it. I personally found the episode to be a fun and interesting little detour with serious X-Men vibes.

[@Outrider85]

@@Etticos. Yeah it interrupts the pace of the season, kind of comes out of nowhere and is over just as quickly with no serious lasting impact on the series. It could have been cut and very little would have been lost.

[@andrewrawlings5220]

I think the problem was that they couldn't think of another way of homaging the 'Street Gang' genre of movies that were big in the 80s. Such a gang wouldn't really fit into Hawkins and so they needed a reason to have someone visit a 'Big City' and hang out with 'Tough Street Kids'. Given that I can't think of a better way of creating an homage to those movies I'm going to say they did the best they could, it just felt a but tacked on and like it didn't really fit.

[@KitZunekaze]

@@andrewrawlings5220 Yeah to me this episode is them trying to fit in the references like they do with the rest of the series. X-men, Gang movies, Dystopian Action movies, Lots of references were put in here that don't 'fit' anywhere else. What makes the episode stand out so poorly is that it just didn't fit well. They tripped up a bit on the writing / pacing of it, and it made it all stand out as bad. That being said, it's a small mistake in an otherwise masterful series. Mistakes aren't a sign of a bad show, every series has mistakes in it. To be clear the mistake here is just that it wasn't handled in a way that fit with the rest of the series. There are definitely some cool elements to it, and you can see what they were ATTEMPTING to do, which if done well might have been amazing. I'm glad they tried and failed, rather than never having tried something like this at all.

One of the best things about this show, in every season, is how complex all the characters are, even the "villains". Nobody is just what your first impression is of them. Even more impressive is how good even the younger cast is at playing this depth so deftly. Very few pieces of fiction can maintain this baseline level of quality over so many installments. Stranger Things is a rare benchmark.

i love that both steve and nancy take dustin under their wing this season, especially because it resolves what dustin said in the first season that mike's sister is a jerk now that she's in a relationship with steve. which is funny since now that they're apart, he sees the good in both again or for the first time and then starts shipping and supporting them instead.

Honestly, Jane learning from Kali was so Sith to me. "Your anger makes you stronger, gives you focus!" The Kali arc apparently didn't go over so hot with a lot of the fanbase, but I liked it, and would prefer to see her again. Bob's death was sad, I liked the character. Steve has the most radical character growth in the show, he goes from a douche bag at the start of season 1 to one of the characters you genuinely root for, and they even made his transformation believable.

[@MARYWTHER]

What I don't like about the "Sith" thing is that a lot of people associate Kali's "training" with manipulation, when I don't think that was the point. Kali THOUGHT she was doing the right thing for Eleven because that's what she's been doing her whole life to give purpose to her life. She was left alone and with no purpose until she found her crew and they all together went to avenge what happened to her. She literally thought it was what Eleven needed and wanted ultimately, and maybe deep down it is, even tho she's not willing to go as far as murdering these people (I mean, those who know s4 know s4). To me, at no point Kali manipulated El, the show even makes El take away Kali's decision rather than Kali doing it to El, and Kali being pissed about it. To me, the episode title is as much about Kali herself "lost" in her own ways and trauma, than it is about Kali to El "lost" in a sense that she's from her past and they're reconnecting. To me, Kali is too important to El's story and the Lab to have her sidelined like she's been after this episode, it's just sad, she has so much potential.

[@ajrwyfu]

What's great about every season is that each season has a completely different feel, all based on the time of the 80s it takes place in. Season 1 was a mystery, Season 2 is Suspense/horror and Seasons 3 and 4 have their own as well.. SO well done. Looking forward to your future reactions 👍

@@clave965 i mean it was an great scene but still terrifying. Its similar to how I am simultaneously scared and having a great time while watching a horror movie. Still felt really bad for Chrissy though, she was a nice person.

I felt the same EXACT way when Bob died. As soon as he came out and had that smile, I was like “welp, he’s gone.” It was so easy to know that because of how it was shot.

Always love your reaction videos, and I can’t wait for you watch seasons 3 and 4 and also to continue the Netflix Marvel shows!!!!!

[@gameoverman3673]

Yes! I've been waiting and hoping every day for this reaction 😅

Steves arc is my absolute favorite in the show and he must be protected at all costs.

[@faiththomas6137]

Every cast member really outdid themselves in this season. I can't wait to see your reaction to the next seasons.

[@wild_lee_coyote]

I love the how every character has so much depth. Even Bobby who is a abusive asshole has a reason why he is that way. Watching these characters evolve as they grow up is why we get so invested in those series. Especially Steve who was originally going to die in the first season. Now the ball really gets rolling.

I think you mean Billy

rest in peace bob💔💔💔watching it back then the way i bawled

[@RicSauce917]

If you are looking for movies with great acting and storylines. I highly recommend the movie Looper with Bruce Willis, and Cinderella Man with Russell Crowe.

[@jacquelinelaface136]

That whispered "ohhh, he's gonna die' about Bob actually made me laugh out loud 😆

[@cornsyrup5041]

I love it how in Season 1 they gave Noah Schnapp barely any screen time and then you get to see what hes capable of in this season, with the whole season really surrounding him.

Billy's dad has the most overwhelming cop on a power trip energy I think I've ever seen.

[@neilshackleton89]

Steve is one of the best redemption stories ever.

[@cw1345]

Season 4 is by far the best season yet.

[@clave965]

You from the future or something?😂

[@bidishah]

You mean 4?

No

I’ve always said that season 2 is not my favorite but it makes sense for the story and I still feel like it’s a necessary season in terms of progression, season 3 was the most enjoyable to watch and I can’t wait for you to react to it
