Okay, Ive been off work this week and been doing a lot of binging. I watched this after reading this even though I don't remember you ever mentioning this any of the times we all watched movies at your mom's house
Good times. Not sure if you ever saw me mentioned it on here that mom actually passed away a few years ago :wah:
Yea I mean I even remember thinking that I used to think this influenced The Matrix or was better than it. I mean maybe it influenced it but, yea, certainly isn’t better than it. Matrix holds up really well.

Kiefer Sutherland practiced his lines by mimicking a COPD patient with 2-3 word dyspnea. I wanted to yell "T-t-t-today, junior!" anytime he went on a monologue.
This is why I haven’t even bothered going back and finishing it. I was like holy crap this guy is comically bad.

When? This show is better than ever. I just finished episode 5 and the story is great and we are marching to a grand finale
:lol: Stop, just stop. You’re trying too hard at this point. We get it, you like the show but it was clear before the season even aired that you were going to like it no matter what they put out.

We must be watching a different show than some of you
Seems like it. Because the majority of the people on here that don’t have blinders on pretty much agree the writing has fallen off a cliff.

The whole reintroduction of El’s sister and that new storyline is a waste. We moved on from her and that whole program story. Now bringing her back could have been interesting but her plot point being we gotta stop the government from creating more kids with powers is a waste. No one has been thinking about that for a few seasons and now that is going to be a drive force in El’s decision making going forward.
Yea I hate this part so much. All of a sudden a dumb character that no one cares or even knows about comes back and is changing the entire motive/direction.
The “It’s better to kill yourself than live in hiding” is just another on the list of bad writing decisions that are piling up this season. “No you should not want to live in obscurity with the person you love because these people will find you because don’t you see how good they are at finding you you haven’t even left Hawkins and it took them forever to realize you’re still here just imagine how easy it will be to find you if you move to a different state or country you need to kill yourself!!!!”

This thread is really weird. The fan boys are just giddy. The show has fallen off bigly
If you like the show, you are having to fight extra hard right now to act like this is good tv.
Some people thought this was one of the best shows ever and already were going to die on that hill regardless of what happened this season.
The show certainly had its really really good moments, but I’m ready for it to be over.
Finished all 3, pretty meh to bad overall.
I enjoyed EP6, it was the best of the bunch imo. EP7 was just awful. I’m honestly at a loss for words just how bad the writing has become. I knew the coming out scene was going to be bad but didn’t expect that bad.
Dustin and Steve making up salvaged it a bit at least. Glad their bickering is over and was a pretty nice heart to heart moment.
The gang coming up with a physics plan in two seconds and figuring out all this crap immediately simply because they are nerds is so dang played out. It’s been every other episode for 5 seasons now some ridiculously conplex situation arises, they think about it for a second, and then each episode someone different goes “I GOT IT!” How did they not get tired of writing the exact same scene over and over for 10 years?

Finished all of vol 2. Agreed EP6 was far and away the best of the three and EP7 was just god awful.
S4 was so good it pumped me up for this season so much but now it’s back to a show where I would for sure quit watching if there was another season.
I disagree. Will has been different. But he was different because he went through what the rest of his friends couldn’t even relate to. Being kidnapped and the upside down jacked him up. It’s no surprise he was a different kid and wasn’t interested in girls. But he has not been gay. Just because a kid is different doesn’t mean your gay. They literally had a perfect reason for him being different. But they change it 95% of the way in snd now make his sexuality a HUGE part of the story. I don’t care that he’s gay, but deciding to make it a show altering, world saving factor at this point is just all time bad writing. It’s hard to even explain how bad the coming out scene was :lol:
It has to be ChatGPT writing this. The dialogue has gotten so bad.
Yea for a second I thought Jonathan was going to have to sacrifice himself to let Nancy get away but then I was like o I guess they’re just calling it off. Plus, it’s pretty clear this season Nancy ain’t being saved by no man, she won’t even let Steve use a gun. She freaking turned into Rambo in EP7.
Max, Henry, Holly, and Steve have been very solid.
At this point I’m honestly ok if Vecna wins :lol:

I’m not anti gay like a lot of this site but holy shite the coming out scene was bad and others who are gay are calling it bad. Will’s gay. We’ve known for 3 fricking seasons. And we’re still on this shite

ETA: Also, Jamie Campbell Bower and Sadie Sink are acting fricking circles around the rest of the cast. They’re both stunning. Hope Jamie gets as much work as Sadie is getting from Hollywood. He’s been awesome

Was wondering if we ever would see 8 again being that was the only bad episode of the entire series. I much rather her with a shaved head. Her trashy friends hurt that episode so much
I need her to die ASAP. Chick was in one episode and they got her in here boss bitching hopper around. I need her off my screen.

Finished EP5.
I love Dustin’s line to end the episode. “It will take everything and It will take all of us with it!” Wow, so their lives are possibly in danger :lol: Shocker.

I can't speak for the latest models, but I have a 2011 Mazda CX-9 about to hit 300k. It is the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. The only major repair I've had to do is to replace a single wheel bearing.
Yea I mean I'm not tryin to say that you won't ever see a Mazda last. My niece is looking for a new car and has a Mazda with almost 200k on it. I was just stating what he said and he's certainly someone I'd trust. He said to avoid the "M's" in general, Mazda, Mercedes, and Mitsubishi.
Glad yours has help up well for you :cheers:

I nominate Mazda CX 5.
Made in Japan, AWD is standard, 2.5 with actual transmission.
Right now one can be had for less than 27k in base model. A Carbon was quoted at 29.5k.
What others challenge this?
Father in law is a master mechanic and owns a pretty big repair shop said to never under any circumstances buy a Mazda.
Simply based on that, I'd never consider one, regardless of the price. They don't look too bad though.

I'm not buying it. But I will certainly watch the documentary whenever they make one.

One of the cons that I have heard of about a barndominium is that there are no comps and that financing them is tough to do because of that.
Yea, do not say the word bardominium, it's a farmhouse. Financing will go easier if you never mention the word barndo.

I don’t even know what you’re trying to say with this
I mean she's just naturally small and can only do so much compared to the elite crossfit athletes. She works out 4-5 times a week for years now, has a good diet but can only ever get to about 117 pounds (would probably be closer to 100 if she didn't work out). When she did crossfit competitions she would be as good or better than anybody in the competition with body weight stuff. Was the fastest swimmer by far in the last competition, can do probably 7-10 muscle ups in a row without breaking, fast peg board climbs, great with high rep wall balls, fast runner and can run for days. Just good at a lot of things. But when it comes to like competition RX weight overhead lifting and a few others, she falls behind. That's why I say Hyrox is better suited for her because there aren't really workout that require heavy lifting.
I did. Plan on going to them regularly but i was out of town this past Sunday and will be gone this coming up Sunday too. Hopefully in January it will start to be a regular thing for me.
