If you're looking for a movie that has serious Stranger Things vibes check out Super 8. Its basically Stranger Things before Stranger Things.

2026-01-10 02:35:46 +0000 UTCHer reaction was honest to me. This season has built a lot of frustration among fans leading up to that finale anyway She gasped and cried multiple times, and mentions what she liked from the season so she was obviously engaged, it just overall left a bad impression, and I agree with her

2026-01-08 20:13:11 +0000 UTCOkay I made my first comment before actually watching the reaction bc I could not be bothered watching that episode again so soon 😅 BUT I am now, and you’re opening criticisms, I love I literally commented on how EVERYBODY was getting a monologue this season and it wasn’t hitting the right notes, and Sadie Sink agreed that watching the episode her character took WAY too long 😭 Not you calling out the no-deaths early on too lmao

2026-01-08 18:05:09 +0000 UTCI get that everyone reacts differently, but this reaction really didn’t land for me. It felt like the entire episode was approached from a place of frustration rather than letting the finale just breathe and be experienced. I understand critiquing pacing or story choices, but when every moment is nitpicked, it kind of drains the fun, especially for a final episode of a show a lot of us just wanted to enjoy and say goodbye to on a positive note after a decade of being involved with these characters. Your reactions are hit and miss lately for me, and this one felt like you were already checked out going in. I still respect your insight, but sometimes loosening up and letting the moment exist would make these reactions a lot more enjoyable. jc Nat 🤦🏽♂️ wishing you well and hope you’re recovering okay.

2026-01-08 17:04:08 +0000 UTCMax could have had that conversation with her much earlier and told her that once they reach the portal she will have to find her own way. instead she waits until the last second be like “yea, you can’t leave with me”. It’s more so a flaw in the writers than the actual characters decisions

2026-01-07 05:45:53 +0000 UTCThe pacing of the season seems slow at moments but the whole final season was a span of 3 days until the last 45 minutes of the finale in the time jump making that an extra day.

2026-01-07 03:22:30 +0000 UTCSadie Sink acting is great as usual....needing a character death is mind numbingly dumb... Max could have run for her access point but only by leaving Holly in a lurch without any discussion which would have been against her character...and she did not know what was happening in the real world...so ur just being a bit dense tbh.

2026-01-07 02:32:53 +0000 UTCI think El surviving is just wishful thinking and a coping mechanism for Mike.
