Enormously, pleasantly surprised. Really solid. Obviously a pastiche of so many influences but put to good effect. Sort of wish I saved some episodes for today instead of rushing through em yesterday.

The kids were awesome and felt realistic, El a cute, music was good, Hop is based and should be Will's new dad.

he entered their cars because they knew about the deal he made with the guys who ran that facility and probably wanted to strike a new deal because he's pretty much the only one who's survived a trip to the shadow realm
don't know about the food tho, could be eleven but that would imply that someone told him about her still being alive which would either suggest that they have other people like eleven that located her or that she's been captured by the facility men
the latter seems the most unlikely tho

Yeah, that struck me as some bullshit. You show the sucked-dry slime-covered corpse of a kid and that...just never shows up again?

I hope, if there is a next season, that Will still being able to communicate with the Upside Down leads to him meeting El. That'd be neat.

Also was pic related intentional, given how that scene played out?

It has the same problem as a lot of "mystery" type dramas, it does a good job of making the central mystery seem engaging at first but it's much harder to actual make the reveal satisfying towards the end of the series.

That cgi monster was fucking terrible to such a degree that I'm still pretty floored that there isn't more criticism of it. Also, nothing about it made sense and it getting debilitated by a kid hitting it with a slingshot after machine guns did nothing to it was pretty cringey.

/k/ here


I found it great that they just used pistol caliber smgs (as was so popular in the 80s), and how it had little effect.

Now, if i were the US goverment, i would have sent teams in with more heavy weapons. He did react to getting hit, a few .50s or hell, a mk.19 would have chopped that fucker up.

Then you got an entry point into the USSR at any point of your chooseing, infinte scouting of infinstructure and actual floor layouts (invaluable for espionage)...IF you could figure out how the monster does it.

they could have just captured it with a large steelwire net and hauled it back to the normal world. the problem is stopping it shifting between worlds to escape, because it can move between worlds under pressure and stress like when it was on fire.

How was the creature so good at going back and forth between dimensions if it couldn't do it before El opened the gate? If it were it's natural ability surely it would've been doing it before El made contact

Doesn't deserve the praise it's been given, 7/10 series though. It's not bad, but it's not the second coming of Christ like some people are making it out to be. Take off the nostalgia goggles and it's very cliche and brings nothing truly original. Characters never really developed that much either. The child-acting was ok, but it was noticeably bad at times, especially the black kid. Honestly, I can't even remember the names of 80% of the characters outside of the byers family.
>>
>>72096507
I was talking about that scene where she's talking to Will through the walls, and how Will is stuck in a dark shadowy world that looks exactly the same but is all grimdark and decaying and shit, so then Winona gets that axe and pounds out that wall but then there's no Will behind it, it's just like a hole in the wall and there's nothing outside

that's deep, man

There's a lot of layers to it, but the central story has a lot of surface-level similarities to Stranger Things.

>>72097255
He saved her life. Meanwhile Edward Furlong was just a creep.

I thought it was hamfisted when the police secretary lady was telling nancy that jonathon must have done it for love. I thought it seemed obvious he did it because they were insulting his possibly dead brother.

Fucking Chad. I was hoping she'd just end up in the middle. I didn't want her to end up with the outsider, but having one act of redemption just hit the reset button on their relationship was just as trash.
>>
>>72097289
considering netflix has literally never canceled a show after 1 season it seems a safe bet
>>
>>72097326
It wasnt hamfisted, the line meant she was just assuming that it was puppy love and their relationship was actually much different, and stranger than that. Monsters, dead upside-down world brothers.

For /tv/ standards it's enormously well received. Detractors seem dumb or memeing mostly. Having said that, I liked it a lot, sure it's great, but it's not flawless, whatever. It was a fun, compelling 8 hours and an awesome world. Stoked for next season/sequel.

Steve was a Beta in Alphas Clothing. Afraid of his parents, Afraid of what his "friends" thought about him and who he chose to date. He got rekt by the weirdo creep and backed down against pizzaface manlet.

I still thinks its pretty fucking dumb that the broad got back with him after all that development with Jonathan and the Movie Theater sign.

>>72097386 This anon puts it nicely. It just seemed a little odd that they focused so much time developing that relationship and then just pulled a complete 180 especially when they spent so much time during the middle episodes fleshing out their relationship while other more important characters didnt get nearly as much.

is modern 21 century so boring that they have to actually try to capture the essence of another decade?

and what is it with all the famous movies coming out at once? we fucking get it, you're in the 80s, senpai.
>>
>>72097570
So Silent Hill.
>>
>>72097569
I believe the implication is that it will tell another complete story that can stand on its own like this season did. There weren't a bunch of plot threads left hanging apart from the sequel-hook ending.
>>
>>72097556
Why did he never stop to clean his face? This bothered me the most.
>>
>>72097621
something like letting your kid bike home at dark would seem really out of place in a contemporary show.
>>
Season 2 is going to be about bodysnatching slug monsters. Should be fun.
>>
El still alive or no? i won't watch s2 if shes gone

>>72095716

>>72097645
I think they can have a different cast and story with reoccurring charicters tieing it all together.
>>
>>72097629
didn't have a silent hill vibe, but it did have a The Mist vibe, the boring part was that it was just one monster. it doesn't make sense, real state must be really cheap there.

>>
>>72097667
yeah but I mean, why not try to create something contemporary with 10s kids? if you take all that 80s vibe away the show becomes a 5 or a 6 desu
>>
>>72097621
Every generation and the art thereof looks backwards a couple decades. 70s and 80s looked back at the 40s and 50s, 50s looked back at the 20s.

Not really. It's "80s kid movie" scary. Has a Stephen King vibe to it.

Only if you think movies like ET and Close Encounters are scurry.

not feeling it the way these shows are made. it clearly takes advantage of being an homage to 80s horror films, if you try to pull this show off with a 21th century setting it fails completely
>>
>>72097398
What about that show with the town where all the adults died that they tried releasing new episodes every week instead of all at once?

So is Hopp going to be some kind of government-backed monster hunter in season 2?
>>
Just finished season 1 and now I'm sad. Gonna have to wait a year before s2 and they will probably ruin it anyways.
>>
it would have been better if the hole was opened somehow thru some fucked up experiements scientists were doing and eleven was their plan for dimensional defense against the horrors beyond the gateway.
>>
so does the monster have its own dimension? or are there other monsters there as well?
