Airing all my Stranger Things grievances

Netflix's Stranger Things was on for around 10 years before recently wrapping up. Did the Duffer brothers stick the landing? In my opinion, no! Was it at least an enjoyable ride? Certainly not! I've been compiling grievances about the evolution of this show since I first watched in 2022. It's high time I complained, rant-style, about all the things I feel haven't been adequately covered by other critics (and some that probably have) for 78 minutes on my YouTube channel. For fun and non-profit! Please consider donating to my fundraiser for the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota. https://www.ilcm.org/ Other MN orgs and resources to look into: https://www.ilcm.org/other-organizations-to-support/ Community Aid Network MN, Minneapolis-based mutual aid org seeking donations and volunteers: https://www.canmn.org/ I ended up talking about Will Byers in this video for way longer than I intended. I'm scared people will think I'm a shipper and ridicule me for being a perceived cringe Stranger Things shipper. Please don't get mad at me. I am innocent and good-hearted and sensitive and beautiful from certain angles.

Knocked it out of the park!

if the show didn't end at season 2, i wish they had stuck to nameless/faceless horror and human greed/violence being the main antagonists. making vecna the face of evil makes it all less scary. like, that's just a dude.

Excellent video! The head creatives of Netflix projects tend to give up on their creations when it becomes uber popular for some reason, see squid game. Like you said in the video, the immense commercialization really takes out the great initial artistic vision and leaves a hollow shell for consumerism :((((

ted!

great video!! since i watched this i keep thinking constantly about the phrase "how could an ensouled person write such a thing"

Jane Mulcahy

not even really a dude! just a thing! you could replace him with a rabid dog and it would probably be more interesting (cujo is a scary movie!)

that could've been a better throwback for the show too! also, i've only seen clips of the play from bootlegs on tumblr and the way they introduce each of the young!parent characters TO henryvecna is hilarious - very high school movie intro-coded. "oh there's joyce - SHE'S the next shakespeare. or there's karen - she's a cheerleader and she is SO popular." i'm surprised it didn't lead to a musical number about cliques in hawkins.

Kat

is there a new 911 video comingggggg

Jane Mulcahy

honestly no! but I'm always talking 9-1-1 on my podcast and on the podcast twitter account if you want more current reactions to the eps airing!
