r/StrangerThings

It occurred to me recently that the characters would be baby boomers (for the most part); do you guys think they’d be typical boomers? Like, do we see Steve Harrington being like “you know when I was your age” to his 6 nuggets, and simultaneously also being like “how do I text”?
Billy would definitely tell his 16 year old kid to get a job, that they need to walk into a store and just hand a resume in-doesn’t matter if they’re not accepting resumes in person anymore

Which is the song playing at the end of S04E05 after Patrick McKinley (Edited again, It was not Lucas, It was not Sinclair, I don't even know whether Lucas and Sinclair are different) gets killed by Vecna in the river and Eleven is with Papa at the research Center?

I loved it a lot, heard it many time in the video.

Is there any standalone version or full-er version that I can hear to?

So I understood that Dr Brenner used 1 to give gifts to other children.

But why keep him "free". In episode 7, he was tortured for telling 11 how anger makes her a better user of the Force, but apart from that, he doesn't seem to be restrained that much for a psychopath killer who has superpowers, the only thing stopping him is a chip.

I understand that Brenner would keep him around in case he needs him to create other gifted children, but isn't he stupid for not keeping him in a cell, hidden away?

Also, another dumb decision from Brenner was telling 11 what a mother is. In episode 7, 1 told her Brenner lied when he said her mother was dead. But it's stupid to even teach her what a mother is. He kidnapped her the moment she was born, he could have shaped her the way her wanted but still taught her some things that were useless for his goal.

That when Vecna took Nancy in Season 4 and told her his story he says Dr. Brenner took him when he was a child but then in Season 5 he’s on the high school flyer. Did he live at the lab and go to high school?

Edit: I looked up how old the actor was in season 4 and he was 16 at the time. I’ve always had a hard time telling how old people are.

when they go into the upside down and find dr brenners office and book and look through everything… why have they never thought of doing this before or even looking for his office?? it just seems like one of the first places you’d look imo. ik the answer is shitty writing but i mean in the sense of them trying to actually save eleven/ hawkins

The Duffers said that Finn Wolfhard came up with an idea for a spinoff (or something), and they said the idea was so similar to what they were already developing, that they told him to keep quiet about it. Has that idea/spinoff already been produced? Is that Tales From 85, or The Boroughs? Or something else?

I’m part-way through S2 and as an 80s born kid who loves sci-fi this is just so great! But my 10 year old informs me that anyone who’s anyone is watching Stranger Things in his social group. Just wondering how old your kids are if your watching with them. My younger kid might find this a little scary (granted we watched much scarier and gorier stuff in the 80s at young ages!)

im a big st fan, and have been wanting to build a passion project that relates to the show.
ive got a few ideas in mind, but want to hear what fans would want to actually see as something interesting to them. pls share ur thoughts, any comments are appreciated.

note: this isn’t some profit seeking nonsense. just trying to do something meaningful that aligns w personal enjoyments

there’s this one interview where the duffers says Erica stayed for s3 because she was very clipable? I can’t find it
