Stranger Things 5x3 & 5x4 - Tara & Andrew's WATCH ALONG!!

Comments

Nowhere Man

I just finished your Episode 1 & 2 reaction! Let's do this! Immediately after I started this video, tickets went on sale for the Stranger Things finale. I now have a January 1st ticket! S5E3 Isn't it interesting how The Red Guardian (played by the same actor, David Harbour, as the one who plays Hopper), also encountered sonic superpower-suppression devices. It's also interesting how the Stranger Things military called their device "The Hedgehog". It's tempting to think that's a reference to "Sonic the Hedgehog", but that game wasn't released until 1991. When Henry threatens to send Derek back to the monsters if he misbehaves, Holly has a rather dark reaction when she smiles, as though she's okay with threatening a fellow child with certain death. When Holly is trying on dresses, do you realize whose dresses those are? It's almost as though Henry "cast" Holly to play a role. Pay attention to the shape of the hole in the cap of the spyglass. This show has now given humanity one of the greatest lines ever delivered: "And I told you to eat your damn pie!" That line will be uttered everywhere in the world for centuries to come, especially around pie-intensive holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas. What an ending, eh? That's the first big reveal. There's more where that came from. S5E4 Holly to Max: "You wear strange clothes." Take a look at what the lead character in Labyrinth wears. Take note of the shape of the cave "window". What does it resemble? Yeah. Dick jokes. This show never stopped being a "kids show". That blue flyer that Max picks up has a date on it (for the Oklahoma production). Guess what that date is? Ha! Guess what? The younger version of Joyce, who you thought was a de-aged or CGI Joyce, is actually a British singer who goes by the stage name Birdy. This show actually uses lookalikes more than you think. Speaking of "real" things, that fashion look that Robin is rockin' while her and Will saunter through the underground tunnel is actually a copy of someone else's real-life attire. ;) Who knew that Season 5 would have a high school reunion? Joyce and Henry meet again, after all those years. --- In that high school memory of Henry's, Joyce was standing on a box and handing out flyers for a musical production. That action most likely means that she was closely involved in the production. She was either a director or stage manager or stage hand or actress or at least the president of the drama club. At the bottom of the flyer, it lists Henry Creel's name, possibly because he played the male lead in the musical. If all of that is true, there's no way that Joyce could avoid knowing Henry. Given possible connections between the adults in Hawkins and Henry Creel, it almost seems like part of what Henry is doing may be revenge-related, in the sense that he might be punishing some of the people he knew in high school by killing or abducting their youngest child. And if that revenge theory is true, that means Barb may not have been killed by a demogorgon that merely wanted an easy lunch. She may have been targeted by Venca, as a punishment for whatever her parents may have done to Henry back in high school. And if that's true, then Barb's death wasn't Nancy's fault. Venca would've sent a demogorgon after Barb regardless where she was. It wasn't that Barb was in the wrong place at the wrong time, it was that Nancy was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Tara, to respond to some things you’ve stated that aren’t true. 1. Millie is not pregnant, her and her husband adopted a babygirl several months ago. 2. Millie did not sue David. There was no harassment or bullying. Daily Mail started that rumor and both Millie and David had interviews during the premier & had nothing but kind things to say about the other and they appeared on the red carpet and took beautiful photos together. Some statements Millie made in an interview: “Of course I felt safe. We’ve worked together for 10 years. I feel safe with everyone on that set. We also play father and daughter,” she continued, “so naturally, you have a closer bond than the rest, because we have had some really intense scenes together, especially in season two.” Noting her “great relationship” with David, Millie described their work together as a “labor of love,” adding that the Thunderbolts* star only helped to elevate her craft. “It makes me wanna bring my A-game every single time I see that I'm on the call sheet working with him,” she said, “because I know he's bringing it right back.” If you would like to read the whole article & see the pictures of them here is the link. https://www.eonline.com/news/1425643/stranger-things-millie-bobby-brown-on-filming-with-david-harbour

Just a few things to point out....the whole "bullying/ harassment" claims were pretty much debunked and have proven to be insanely inflated and blown out of proportion. Everything stemmed from an apparent complaint made several years ago by Millie's management team against David Harbour for only one specific incident that they didn't like....Millie never had any issue and nothing actually came from the complaint. It has been said that it is likely that Millie was joking around on set and Harbour scolded her a bit....not sure if this is entirely true, but this was what several "sources" seemed to imply the incident was. This incident was also said to have taken place during filming of season 3 or 4....so several years ago when Millie was younger and had to have her mgmt team supervise her...now, as a grown adult, I doubt Millie would still film and/or do press with David if there was an actual issue between the two of them. Even the Duffer Brothers have said their #1 priority was always the safety of the kids, so if David was a problem on set, I doubt he would have been back for subsequent seasons. Millie has also said herself that her relationship with David is very father/daughter, so to keep dwelling on this rumor every episode I think does you and the viewers a disservice because you aren't truly allowing yourself to be in the moment. Also, regardless of what happens inside a marriage, I don't think it really should matter how an actor performs or does their job...people are human and flawed, and yeah you might not want to date Harbour but damn he is one talented actor and is giving a wonderful performance as Hopper. I'm just glad that the entire cast of this show truly seems like a family and are all close...for example...Noah Schnapp is the Godfather to Millie's baby....I also love that we have witnessed these kids grow up...they started out as insanely adorable and talented kids...and have matured and grown into powerhouse adult actors who I am so interested in watching their careers blossom! Also, in terms of Vecna letting Will go and leaving him behind, I think is quite obvious .... I feel like so many people and rectors (not you guys though) have felt that this was part of Vecna's larger plan...but I truly just think Vecna underestimates Will....I think everyone ...kinda except Mike...has always underestimated Will at every turn....I sort of see why Will is in love with Mike...Mike has always believed in Will and saw his greatness...but no one else and not even Will believed in himself...Vecna used Will and actually feels like he broke Will and is proud of that fact...Vecna likes to " break" people...it is part of his sadism...is torture people psychologically...so to leave Will behind in all the destruction was a way to prove that Will was weak and that Vecna would always win...but of course, Will was underestimated...as just being the soft, sensitive boy ...but when he saw that his friends were seconds away from being killed, Will let go...he found the answers in himself...the ones Mike always saw and the ones Robin is coaching him to see in himself. I actually think Will has been the main character of this entire show....we just didn't realize it...we thought Eleven was the main character, but really it is Will's story that we are following...Eleven's story is sort of filling to help flesh out the villain's story...man, the Duffer Brothers really knew what they were doing when they pitched this show!

Are you guys going to team up with Greg and John for the finale?? Loved rewatching this whole series with you guys and glad you guys kept reacting to season 5!

Izana Geisler

Will actually only siphons the power from Vecna…so he doesn’t technically have powers!!! But awesome first half and the second half is about to get insane!

minkit

tbh i'd argue that being able to siphon powers from someone IS a power... and honestly a cool as fuck one

Dustin and the others aren’t headed for the military base on Gable Ridge Road, they’re headed for Hawkins Lab at the center of the circle. I’m pretty sure the lab is where they’re gonna find the thing Will drew which has all the kids hooked into it. I do have one question after rewatching with you guys - does Holly remember she was taken by a “monster”? Did Henry pretend to save her from it and bring her to the old Creel house?

Tara ✨💫

I'm confused by some of the comments regarding Joyce, Hopper and Henry going to high school together. In S4 we see a flashback of Dr. Brenner giving young Henry the 001 tattoo and then at some point Henry gets the thing put in his neck to block his abilities and then he was an orderly. How did he go to high school? Didn't Brenner keep him and all the other kids at the lab? Did I miss something?

(this is a rather late reply as im rewatching the show to see other peoples reactions.) If i remember correctly in season 4 when Nancy and Robin find the news article about what happened with the Creels it states that Henry was 12 years old in 1959, but later in the play "Stranger Things: The First Shadow" they retconned this, changing his age to 14 years old instead. In the play we get to know that as they move from their home in Nevada to get a new fresh start in Hawkins after Henry had hurt someone (making him blind or something) he had JUST started high school alongside some of the characters we see from the show. These characters being Joyce and hopper and so on, BUT i believe they are also a couple years older than Henry (im not sure exactly how american high school works but i think they are in their later years in high school while henry just started his first.) And i also believe the scene in season 4 where we get to see young Henry kill his family he then later after staging it to look like it was his Father who'd killed them he actually goes to look for Patty Newbie (Bob Newbies sister), which is like the only person he can trust, therefore he goes to the opening night for their play that they are supposed to be in. (the one of which we get to see glimpses of in season 5.) I ofc wont spoil exactly everything that happened and more specifically all the lore you find out since i think its worth giving a watch if you want more of that lore and his origin story. There are also some other things like how his mother earlier had arranged for Henry to go see a doctor because she was starting to suspecting Henry was behind a lot of these weird occurrences around town where for example dead, mutilated animals were popping up. But Brenner was really just using and manipulating both the mom and Henry to extract more information about Henry, his powers and etc. so thats also how Brenner was able to find young Henry after everything i believe. ALSO I COULD BE MISREMBERING A LOT OF THESE THINGS SO DONT SUE ME IF I DO :D
