For example, how in the world did the Russians escape the mall with Hopper as a prisoner? There's no way there was enough time between the explosion and the US government storming the mall.


Meh, we can suspend belief on this one. Maybe they had escape vehicles waiting. Maybe helicopters? Doesn’t bother me as much

Also, how did Enzo get Joyce's address in Califorina? Hopper wouldn't have known it, so...?


Mail forwarding?

On THIS one? You need to suspend your belief for the entire show; but this is a plot point the writers should have figured out. For example, maybe the blast could have opened a rift that teleported him to Russia or something. I think pretty much any explanation would have been better than, "the Russians snuck out of the mall after US forces already infiltrated it and had it fully surrounded." That's just sloppy writing.

If the mail was forwarded, the California addresss wouldn't have been written in black marker on the package. The package shown did not appear to have been altered in any way.

And on a different subject, with such a heavy focus on DND, I imagine they're setting up 001, 008, and 011 to come together to defeat the Mind Flayer next season since 1 + 8 + 11 = 20 and that's a perfect roll in DND.

Robin was a fantastic addition last season. Same with Eddie this season.

Top 5 Stranger Things moment for me.


In hindsight, probably shouldn’t have used a skate but it was still awesome

That entire scene was super over the top in a Carrie sort of way

As for S4 Part 2, what are the chances that 001 winds up being 011's biological father?

That would make a lot of sense, would explain why El is so powerful and why 001 had such an interest in her from the start

I honestly took it as 001 being 11’s biological father?

001 said, and i’m paraphrasing, “Dr. Brenner tried to recreate me.” I took that as Brenner was making 001 produce offspring until he got a kid that matched 001’s power.

Or took his DNA and implanted it.


Either way, it begs the question about how the original (001) got his powers.

Got the start of a theory working here.

Spoilers.

Opening scene. Episode 1. El writing the letter to mike. She says some along the lines of

“We can speed up or slow down time just with our emotions and feelings.”

Fast forward. When the gang is in the upside down at the Wheelers house. Her guns aren’t there because it’s the past. It’s the day Will was snatched up by the demogorgen.


I think Vecna is controlling time some kind of way in the upside down and it ties in and is summarized by what El wrote in her letter.

I mean all his victims are going through highly emotional ish you know?

After watching this season I think it’s the best one so far. I loved it.

But I also wanna say, if they decide to kill off any characters I hope Will is the first to go. He’s so annoying and whiny.

Yeah idk if it will play a factor this season but the Upside Down being stuck in 1983 will be something important since they made such a big deal about it in an otherwise pretty hectic episode

I really get the Will hate, but I wouldn't mind seeing Mike get lifed in the air and snapped like a twig.

Will is a bitch. Should’ve stayed in the upside down.

Will in the season finale



Also I wouldn’t be surprised to see Nancy and Jonathan die of old age in the season finale. holy shite they look old!

Mrs. Wheeler’s 80s hairstyle is an abomination and a crime.

tbh this is not the most far fetched theory. Not sure why you’re getting downvoted. I mean it would be pretty lame writing and I think they’re better than that, but I could see it. Maybe it’s just a good fan theory.

On another note - I totally missed a lot of what y’all are saying about 001 being 011’s father, but that would definitely make sense. I’m still not here how it all ties together with the Mind Flayer, though, or why 001/Vecna is obsessed with tormenting emotionally distressed teens.

Nice. I couldn’t put my finger on it but I kept thinking he was familiar.

Yeah, I’m confused on a few things. I thought the MF was dead? And why was 001 basically a helper/prisoner? If he was that powerful and evil why have him around?

Finished episode 2. Poor Fred should have watched more horror movies. Don't ever go into the woods when a crazed killer is about.

That demon thing is a bitch arse coward only going after the weak kids. I'm looking forward to El going full Carrie on his arse.

Also liked that she took a roller skate to that mean girl's face. Good lord the people in El's new town suck arse to just stand there and laugh at her getting blatantly bullied by that nasty little snot nosed brat.
