    Binged the last two nights (was out of state the last week so I couldn’t get to it sooner).

    1. This season was so much better than season 2 and right up there with season 1.

    2. Mrs. Wheeler is still :lovelove:

    3. I love Steve, if you don’t F you.

    4. Agree with everyone that Robin was an excellent addition.

    5. Soundtrack was amazing. Peter Gabriel’s Heroes cover was just perfect.

    4. Cried like a baby when Eleven was reading Hopper’s letter.

    5. A fourth season is already confirmed for those hoping it’s over. They have said there’s a possibility it could go five.

    6. Agreed with dump that the dialogue sets up for a S4 release around Thanksgiving or Christmas next year.

    7. I don’t think for one second Hopper is dead. Theory:

    When they shut the gate he was somehow sucked through. Maybe the Russians found him in there or he came out through a gate they have opened at the post credit scene facility? Maybe they find him in the upside down next season? Either way I don’t think he’s gone

    During one of the final scenes, we hear Hopper's letter to Eleven. Millie said they'd actually pre-recorded David Harbour (Hopper) reading it, but she didn't want to rehearse or hear it at all. So her reaction is based on her raw emotions while hearing it.

    I finished season three last night and absolutely loved it. I grew up in the 80s it was a middle school kid roughly the same age as the kids in the show. This season perfectly captured the early teenage years in the 80s with the mall being very central to life etc.

    The Russian component of the show with hilarious. when they showed the final scene in the Russian prison I immediately assumed the hopper is still alive and is In prison there.

    Order of the females after finishing

    1. Mrs Wheeler(incredibly disappointed we didn't get more of her after e1, she's still the best)
    2. Robin(grew on me big time)
    3. Winona(she got kinda annoying)
    4. Nancy(not a good season from her)

    Glad we got more of Murray, great season from the kids.

    What a Friday night for me on here analyzing stranger things

    Oh boy.

    I need an It-like return to Hawkins, 20 years from now. Same actors, 2000s music soundtrack.

    If that’s too much, I’ll settle for the 80s movie trope where the final show does a worded description of what happens to every major character after the show ends.

    Question

    Just finished the season last night. This may be totally obvious but maybe I missed it. Why did the Mind Flayer monster die when the machine was destroyed?

    If it was because it needed that portal to be open to "survive"... the portal was closed for almost the entire season. When they asked Smirnoff about whether the gate was open or not, he said it was closed. So it had been closed for almost the entire season.

    Also, if the portal needed to be open for those monsters to survive, how did the slug thing that popped out of Will's mouth survive after they closed the portal at the end of last season?

    I was kinda confused as to how it just suddenly died.

    I believe it was technically closed in the sense that nothing could physically walk through, but cracked just enough to give life to the Mind Flayer on the other side.

    Also, Will spit up that slug at the end of season one when the portal was still open and growing underneath until Eleven closed it at the end of season two.

    I gotcha. How did the mind flayer or whatever started killing those rats survive the closing of the gate? iirc didn't the little devil dogs and all other things from the upside down die at the end of season 2 when the gate closed?

    Good season. Still like 1 better for the mystery/thriller/suspense vibe it had because you had no idea what was going on with those damn upside down demigorgons. I think the American in the cage is Murray. I think the voicemail is him snooping around to see if Hooper is really gone and the Russians catch word of it and find him.

    2 things in hoopers speech that I’m sure mean nothing but made me go hmmm. 1) his whole talk about time and that it’s unstoppable and keeps moving forward, etc. just reeks of some foreshadowing that El or one of the other super kids can bring Hoop back. Wether that’s via time travel (lot if BttF references but I doubt it) or he got sucked into the upside down and they have to open the door to get him (more likely). 2) “remember the door must remain open by three inches” shortly after seeing the CIA guy find what appears to be about a 3 inch crack in the upside down door.

    As I understand, basically they said that the Russians picked that spot in the first place because it was “healing”. They said they couldn’t breach it from anywhere else. I believe that lent to the idea that it wasn’t fully shut.

    They mentioned that what we saw kill the rats was what exited out of Will when he was getting heated up in the cabin.

    I am assuming it wasn’t able to take a host until the Russians reopened it more and it was more or less dormant during that stretch of time. When it reopened it infected the rats which in turn allowed it physically manifest which in turn allowed it to get Billy.

    But let’s take a second and think about it, these photographers were absolutely beasting and going in there to take all these kick ass pictures...then go in a shitty room to make sure the pictures come out perfectly.

    Now these young fuckers are getting perfect pics from a drone in the middle of the jungle while sitting their ass right at home. And post it on Facebook 10 minutes after the fact. Life is not fair.

    I also might be talking out of my ass right now

    It wouldn’t shock me if it plays into it somehow.

    I’m still not sure how the demidogman is surviving in Russia unless there’s another gate opened or it has evolved. I can’t imagine them rescuing Hopper since he’s 99% alive but it’ll be interesting if they do a prisoner swap of some kind or something. I mean he’s got to get back and Bauman will definitely be involved.

    The options are endless.
