>Set in Hawkins Indiana in the 1980’s, Stranger Things chronicles the search for a young boy who vanishes into thin air under highly suspicious circumstances. His mother (Winona Ryder) opens an investigation into the boy’s disappearance with local authorities that unravels a series of mysteries involving top-secret government experiments, terrifying supernatural forces and one very strange little girl. A love letter to the ubiquitous cult classics of the 80’s, Stranger Things is a coming of age story for three boys that draws this quaint community into a world where mysteries lurk beneath the surface.

I'm a sucker for conspiracy theories. Will check it out. Also is that Winona Ryder?

Because the 90s sucked. That and it hasn't been long enough for there to be sufficient nostalgia about the 90s yet. The oldest end of millenials are old enough to feel nostalgia about the 80s.

Give it 10 years.

90's was terrible. American culture died in 1990 when the Jews successfully changed America starting after WW2.

Now we don't have any culture at all.

Oh don't be a fucking hater, the first season of House of Cards was pretty good, so is Narcos and Bloodline. I can't speak for Marco Polo or the capeshit ones, tough.

cavin spacey made that show what it was, they just had let him keep on doing his thing.

But no, they had to give Robin Wright (claire) more screen time and make her side story part of the main plot, she sucks, no point lying about that.

And now that bitch starts demanding as much money as kevin spacey?
holly fuck, she is really delusional.

but anyway.
the trailer of this new show makes me think about that flop movie super 8.

House of Cards
Bloodline
Narcos

you may not like them but in no way do they suck unless you're still in middle school. then that's okay.

oh wait, top secret government experiments and supernatural forces. yeah, you're a kid.

House of cards went to shit after he got in the white house. They establish him as this hard ass willing to do whatever it takes to get shit done, even kill, then he's in the white house and can't get anything done.

They fucked his character. I didn't wanna see him have a moral struggle or become bogged down by red tape and politics, I wanted to see him actually do shit that's what made the show interesting, his successful schemes.

Watching a politician struggle to do anything is like watching the news. I wanted to see Frank kick ass and get shit done then have it all come crashing down around him due to his shady methods.

No, they aren't. Specifically because they aren't on tv. They're on Netflix.

Oops, my bad. Season 4 is the good one.

House of Cards has always been at its greatest when Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright are working together. The silly house divided arcs that the writers insisted upon in season 2 and 3 were retarded, and almost brought down the show.

But of course.

>>70648345
Compared to season 3 I could see how you thought it was good. But now that the showrunner is leaving and the two hacks who joined the team with season 3 are now the co-showrunners, and Robin Wright is getting a larger role, and it was renewed for two more seasons, I'm pretty much giving up all hope on House of Cards. Franks probably going to be set up by his wife to be assassinated so that she can be president and run things. Gross.

It's a boring land-locked state.

People set supernatural fiction there because it seems less likely that it would occur there.

It doesn't have a history of haunted plantations like South Carolina, secret government research facilities like New Mexico, etc.

Sounds really good though. They're going for every really good King trait. Period piece, comfy atmosphere, and coming-of-age stories were always what King did best.

Totally agree with this, that bitch wrecked the show... I can't believe that she want's the same money as Spacey, he makes the show and she makes it into a void of nothingness.

Traditionally supernatural occurrences occur in Maine if Stephen King is to be believed.

I live in Indiana though, and I think unconsciously I've become fascinated with the paranormal. Top three Podcasts right now are Alice Isn't Dead, The Black Tapes, and Welcome To Night Vale, all dealing with the supernatural or paranormal in some form.

Not like anything interesting is going on here.

Looks like shit, typical of Netflix, really bland and cheap photography, gimmicky concept that was only greenlit due to focus groups and easily marketable posters/current 80s nostalgia fad. A group of kids with bikes and torchlights in dark forests does not make it a Amblin-quality level production or King story, it's just a surface element. Super 8 and Midnight Special tried to ape that spirit and ended up being soulless, unimaginative caricatures.

CANCEL NETFLIX and play Earthbound, read 20th Century Boys or watch Eerie Indiana instead of supporting those kikes.

I was watching some talk show and an actress was promoting the movie about a strange little boy, like he wss a half-alien or something, very mysterious. I was on so much medication that night, I thought "ok, that's cool" and then completely forgot about it next day, name of the actress and the movie title. It looked very similar to this, but I thought the lady was older than Winona.

Still gonna see both if I ever find out what the other "mysterious alien boy" thing was.

This. It looks like it's trying to be the best of Stephen King without being Stephen King, with some Steven Spielberg 80's move aesthetics thrown in.

Pretty much everything Fincher was doing when he got his start. (Seven, The Game)
Goodfellas, the quintessential gangster movie. Also Casino.
Silence of the Lambs
All of Tarantino's early stuff stuff (Resivoir dogs, pulp fiction)
Luc Besson's two good movies.
Naked Lunch
The Thin Red Line
The nineties were talking the gore loving crazy shit that people like Veerhoven and elevating it to a higher point. IT was violence with a little more plot behind it.
