She’s only ever directed 2 movies. Why should the fact that one of them flopped mean she should never direct again?

Ah, the good ol’ “white men just can’t do no right in this PC SJW MeToo cancel-culture-run-amuck world” that’s never not bullshit.

I’ve long suspected that Netflix deliberately mandates its new shows to make their first seasons feel like pilot episodes, i.e. pad it out with a lot of filler and end on an aggravatingly inconclusive cliffhanger.

Millie Bobby Brown is 17 now. How are they gonna show flashbacks to when she was 12?

It’s not “humane and kind” if it’s just “know which side your bread is buttered on.”

Speaking of expectations - when you victim-shame, you can fully expect to get dragged for it.
