And today we are going to be talking about Stranger Things. Stranger Things. The Stranger Things finale was absolutely bonkers. Stranger Things finale. Okay. So I want to break down the finale. Yes. Okay. So it starts off with everybody getting to their places, right? Collian Eleven are getting ready. They go into

0:23.7

Eleven's mind and we see them get max. So when they're going through the memories, right, do you think that they should have gone more into like the play and like tie in the stranger things the first shadow more? Because they really didn't at all. Yeah. I was actually shocked that it didn't lean more into the play just because we see the young joy. Yeah, and then we see like, she says hoppers in that room smoking a join and like, they're all mentioned. Yeah, I'm shocked that they didn't show like Paddy Newby. Yeah. Like Beckna's love, his first love. Right, because they, you technically see them at the play. Uh-huh. They're there. They're there. But then the curtains closed and they're like oh that's our portal yeah it was very i mean they really didn't utilize that at all yeah so it seemed like to me the play is important to know henry's backstory yeah really important but you know what's so weird is do they even mention that that night at the place when he almost killed the love of his life? No. They never mentioned it at all.

1:11.8

So people don't even know why that's like a big fear.

1:13.7

Right.

1:14.1

And that's why it's like they need you to watch the play.

1:25.5

Yeah. So I feel like it helped a lot when you talked about the play. Yeah. Connecting it to that. Right. And then during this scene, we also get cut to the scene of the group that's in the upside down, and they're trying to get to the abyss.

1:28.1

Now we see the abyss get a little too down, and they're trying to get to the abyss.

1:28.1

Now we see the abyss get a little too close, and it starts messing up the tower. This is where I thought Steve was for sure a goner. Especially after what the Duffer brothers did on the Tonight Show. Yeah, the whole Funko thing. Yeah, when they had Steve's Funko fall. So did you think that he was actually going to die? Because for me, I was like, they're doing it, and they're doing it early.

1:45.3

I thought he was going to die? Because for me, I was like, they're doing it.

1:44.2

And they're doing it early.

1:45.3

I thought he was going to die. But when the screen went black, I knew they weren't going to kill. Oh, really? Yeah. I was like, oh, here we go. They're going to, he's going to grab onto something. And apparently, right, when the abyss stops moving, we see everybody like all excited that they didn't die and we see Mike actually hug Nancy now apparently this is what

2:02.7

probably the only or yeah probably we see everybody like all excited that they didn't die and we see mike actually hug nancy now apparently

2:01.9

this is what probably the only or yeah probably the only time that mike or nancy actually gets a hug

2:08.7

from one of their siblings in the entire show so you're what you're saying is holly holly and nancy never

2:13.9

hug mike and nancy ever hug until this moment. Wow. All the other kids like hug

2:18.0

their family all the time. Yeah. No love for Nancy. After all Nancy does. And Mike. And Mike. Okay,

2:23.2

then we get to the point where 11 Max and Collie find the kids and they find Henry. 11 and Henry have a

2:29.3

little bit of a showdown. And then we cut to a scene with Jonathan and Steve talking. So do you think

2:33.7

that Jonathan and Steve had their perfect ending? And like that conversation was like what kind of closed it up for them? Like their rivalry. I mean, I don't see how else you could really write that scene to be any better. Obviously, they don't like each other. But there's this common ground of like, hey, you know, we wanted to do it the best for Nancy. Yeah. And we respect each other for it. And in turn, we wished each other the best. And I think they both realized for Nancy, it's better for her to be independent by herself. And they both realized that they have to do their own thing. I think that kind of connected all three of them. Just like when we see in the very end, they're all united. So I think, yeah, I think it's a perfect ending for their relationship between steve and jonathan do you think though someone should have ended up with nancy doesn't doesn't matter who do you think she just should have ended up with someone for me i thought jonathan was like oh yeah her and jonathan should have ended up together really i'm going to go other way. I definitely didn't think she should end up with Steve.

3:25.0

Wait, why, though?

3:25.9

There was something that was when I was watching it, I was like, dude, if she ends up with Steve, I don't know, this feels so. It just seemed like it would be weird to write that. I guess so. After all they've been through, I think it was perfect how they ended it. be friends, unite 15 years down the line, come back for a movie or TV show.
