OMFG... what a show. Now we will probs have to wait 2 years for the next one but bloody hell they know how to end a season.
just a few questions

  1. I was convinced Eddie was number 10, he still could be but I’m bummed we never find out and of course that they chose to kill him.
2 . Max was the star of the season. I almost thought she was a gonna and eleven wouldn’t save her. Close call

  1. I’m so happy Joyce and hop finally got together. And how hot did hop look this season?

  2. why am I convinced will is going to die in the last season. He was vecnas first ever kidnapping.

  3. we need a robin and steve spin-off where they get new jobs at the beginning of every season.


any other points people need to get off thier chests 😋

I actually fancied Hopper more in the earlier series but loved the bit where he and Joyce kissed and got interrupted.
I cried a lot for Will’s unrequited love and Jonathan trying to support him.
I would absolutely watch a Steve and Robin spin off.
Love the Stephen King teasers.
I didn’t want to like Eddie but loved his ending (and cried at that too).

I'm gutted about Eddie.
I know it was two and a half hours but I would have liked more of the story tied up. I get it's all about the action but a bit more conversation maybe. Elevens rescue was so good.

flightofthesevenmillionbumblebees · 01/07/2022 23:18

Also gutted about Eddie, I really liked him!

Norachance · 01/07/2022 23:19

Also

This link will open a Spotify playlist. Whatever is at the top is the song that will save you from Vecna!
It's different for everyone Smile

BrownHairedQuirk · 01/07/2022 23:19

I have a little nagging feeling that Eddie will come back in S5. Perhaps just wishful thinking, but there is absolute outrage about his death all over social media. I hope the Duffers do because him and Dustin together 💔

LetsGoFlyAKiteee · 01/07/2022 23:20

Bob...Alexi..Eddie. You sorta knew Eddie was coming. They like to introduce new likeable characters and kill them off.

I'm surprised how it all played out. Thought somehow the Cali lot would join them in Hawkins and be more about Wills connection but least that hasn't been forgotten and explored next season..the last one dunnn!!!!

Not sure if enjoyed the long length or not...

But Enzo survived! Surprised about that.

Fashiontatts · 01/07/2022 23:21

Eddie....!! I really hope he's back for S5!

Danikm151 · 01/07/2022 23:24

poor eddie!

Mykittensmittens · 01/07/2022 23:29

I’m just hooked on the Easter eggs. Season 4 was epic for them - lines from Halloween, Stephen king books, nightmare on elm street, posters in the background, homages all
over the place.

and I still can’t get past Hopper being married to Lily Allen…..🤯

flightofthesevenmillionbumblebees · 01/07/2022 23:40

@LetsGoFlyAKiteee I also thought enzo would die.

Really wasn't expecting Eddie though, I thought it'd be Steve, especially after the stuff he said to Nancy about the motor home holiday and kids.

I was expecting them to kill off at least one 'core' character this season

Girliefriendlikespuppies · 01/07/2022 23:57

I was never convinced that Eddie was 010 that would have been a stretch even by ST parameters! Dd and I were a complete mess in his last scene though 💔 he was a great character.

I don't think Will can die as imagine what a state Joyce would be, she'd never recover.

I'd of liked to have seen Maxs mum at the hospital, seemed odd she wasn't there.

Claymorekick · 02/07/2022 00:09

I am a Hopper fan but, like a pp, actually preferred him with a moustache and on the chunky side!

I honestly thought Steve was a goner (and was bracing myself for it) with all the stuff he was saying that he wanted in the future and with Eddie and Dustin becoming a new pairing so really surprised it was Eddie that died. But it is a bit annoying that they keep bringing in new likeable popular characters (still slightly annoyed at Bob) and then killing them whilst nobody in the main group has died yet 🤔

Really interested to see how the love triangle between Mike, El and Will plays out next series. But do think that Will will end up becoming the villain.

Also, Dr Owens didn't die did he? I really hope he has escaped.

UpToonGirl · 02/07/2022 00:44

I was kind of hoping they would kill off Robin. Liked her in her first season but not so much now. I knew they wouldn't kill an original so I was guessing between Robin/Eddie and I thought they would for sure kill Murray.

I was getting a little annoyed at Eddie and Robin being very pro Steve and Nancy and S & N actually have a little chitty chat while trekking through the upside down...not the time people!

Max is my favourite so I'm glad they didn't kill her although it would have been a big impact. Will is probably my second favourite, he is too good for Mike!

Loved all the nods and references.

Fraidwo1 · 02/07/2022 01:46

They were bound to kill Eddie. Even the character himself realised there was no point coming back on the outside. He just would have been locked up or living in hiding, it was the only logical solution.

Figgygal · 02/07/2022 07:57

Did anyone feel like it was retread of earlier seasons - 11 and brenner, new character dies, nancy gets her shotgun out, 11 in a deprivation tank etc
It all felt a bit samey to me.

Massively pissed about Eddie
Hate to say it but some of the main characters should have died - i was thinking Nancy was a goner to explore how it affected steve/jonathan
Thought murray (love him) or Game of thrones guard would have at least
Will, mike, jonathan did nothing all season
Will be chewing over it all today

Massive crush on David Harbour now

LetsGoFlyAKiteee · 02/07/2022 08:27

Be interesting to see how next season goes with the time jump. Think it's 2 or 3 years? Who will be with who?! Especially Nancy wise

Eddie death made sense. Like someone posted he couldn't just go back to town. Just a bit sad for poor ole Dustin!

PoloMintPatty · 02/07/2022 10:16

I thought Steve was gone for sure or Johnathan.

Gutted about Max, she was very brave to go back in and she's not out of the woods yet.

So much emotion. I felt drained by the end

Heistonabike · 02/07/2022 10:44

The Master of Puppets scene was spectacular! Even better than the Kate Bush sequence. I wonder if Metallica will see a surge in popularity now.

Roominmyhouse · 02/07/2022 10:48

Gutted for Eddie, he was a great character.

Hopper ❤️ - that’s all I’m saying!

I loved this series but I’m a bit annoyed how it ended, as it wasn’t an ending really. Just setting up for season 5 which I know is what they do now but still!

mortalprojections · 02/07/2022 12:09

Im disappointed in vol.2. I felt it was a bit...rushed maybe. Things that were touched on in vol.1, I was expecting to be expanded on in vol.2. And they just glossed over them. Steve/Nancy/Jonathon triangle, Will being connected to Vecna was 10 seconds long, Karen had her own poster but we hardly saw her. Henry Creel's screen time was less than a minute long and I was hoping to see more of him & Papa interacting in flashbacks. I just expected to see him being experimented on. There was a lot of implied sexuality with Will in vol.1, which has whipped up a frenzy on social media/tiktok. And it was just ignored. Seems a bit like gay bating and I can see how this could actually upset young people who were relating to that character arc.

What happened in the 2 days after the battle? Why wasn't Max's mum at the hospital?! Why does every seem fine at the end? They have a dead friend and the other brain dead! Only Dustin acknowledged Eddie! Why the hell are there still people living in There is a massive portal across the whole town and they are just having a laugh making peanut butter sandwiches!

The format of bringing a really likeable character in then killing them os a bit boring now. Would have been great to see Eddie survive somehow.

Figgygal · 02/07/2022 12:11

It was the use of that journey song separate ways that i thought was amazing. Id never heard of it before and im amazed as it is epically cinematic

Squareflair · 02/07/2022 12:17

I was a bit disappointed to be honest, I think it was really good but as volume 1 was so incredible and with the gap between them being released it felt a bit of a let down- think it messed with the pacing maybe?

I agree there wasn't really any other option for Eddie, he wouldn't have been welcomed back to Hawkins but it is a shame that his death wasn't more epic. Yes he could have run and chose not to and he did delay things, but seems a bit of a waste that it wasn't tied into his shredding? Like he could have carried on playing guitar til the end.

Hopefully season 5 will see them all together again for the finale as it seems will be the case, a lot of the characters felt redundant this series really. I expect Max will be saved, once they defeat Vecna which they inevitably will perhaps he will be able to release her mind as they said he absorbs them or however it was worded.

Shortpoet · 02/07/2022 12:18

I hope there is a new audience for Siouxsie and the Banshees. Hearing Spellbound at the end was just perfect.

I didn’t cry until Dustin cried. God that set me off.

MsMarvellous · 02/07/2022 12:50

It was non stop wasn't it.

I felt the ending was the worst part. I mean, it was nice to see everyone together, and El and Hopper's reunion was beautifully done, but it felt flat after everything.

Also, if the upside down is now topside how is a 2-3 year time jump going to work. Is the danger going to have spread across America and further. Are we talking global apocalypse?

I wanted to see The Russians again but guess they wouldn't go with a government agent so went to hide.

I could see see season five being a mission for El to bring other survivors of the rainbow room together. Surely she can't fix this alone.

Gutted Eddie died and heartbroken for max.

I don't see it as gay baiting, you have to remember ST is set in the 80's, homophobia was rife and coming out not readily accepted.
