They wrote about Rip Torn. Not sure about the other one

Still didn’t have a phone though. 

Yeah I think Randall is in the minority here 

Again this was the 80s so they would have had to a) be near a phone and b) have his phone number memorized. This wasn’t something they could spend hours on.

I gotta say I was pretty ambivalent on Brett Gelman last season but really loved him this season. Also the saddest part of Alexei getting shot was seeing Murray in the background in his jean shorts, holding up the corn dogs and dancing in celebration at Alexei winning the Woody Woodpecker plush, not having yet…

You said they “grew up in the 80s.” I was just speculating that based on what I know (being too lazy to google) they would have actually “grown up” in the 90s (in that they would have been Mike/Dustin/Lucas’s ages then). But thanks for being a dick about my random offhand comment for no reason?

You say there’s no cricket, but there is an IMDb credit on this movie for a cricket voice. Maybe just won’t be as big of a part.

Thank you for someone agreeing with me on this lion king nonsense 

I only waited four days to watch this season of stranger things and I still had the death (?) at the end spoiled on an article about a completely unrelated piece of pop culture. Luckily I don’t care too much about spoilers but it still felt a little soon for that.

Nothing about my hair has ever been in a specific style of a time period. Ever. I had some very mild layering in ninth grade that could only vaguely be tied to that time period. Not everyone is up to date on the hottest trends. 

The duffer bros went to film school with me only a couple years ahead of myself and I very much “grew up” in the 90s despite being born in the 80s. I think it’s based on their experiencing of the 80s via popular movies rather than their experiencing the 80s firsthand.

People still live in Paradise CA, even though almost all the houses were destroyed, the environment is toxic, and much of the water won’t be safe to even shower in for years to come (my sister lived there and lost her house, though they left). They even still had their annual chocolate festival there this year. A lot…

“They could have gotten away with this if...” uhhh I think they got away with it. Just maybe not with you. :)

Agree 100%. I’m only 31 and I wouldn’t consider myself a “sensitive viewer” but I get more enjoyment from the breaks in tension than from an hour of constant tension.

I’m a millennial who grew up in the 90s and I went tons of places alone at a young age. Not as many as the kids in this show (they’re a decade ahead of me), but I definitely was getting dropped off at the movies with friends by age 9 and would roam the neighborhood alone on my little mermaid roller skates at 6 or 7. Wa…

While I know people keep complaining that certain scenes and/or crosscutting are ~ruining~ the tension of the show in various places, those are the parts I live for. Honestly while the mind flayer stuff is what propels the plot, that’s not what I watch the show for. If the mind flayer stuff wasn’t cut into so often by…

There is zero evidence that Billy was sexually abusing Max or had any plans to. And while they did show her being sad, they also showed her goofing around with Lucas and making fun of Dustin, so it’s not like it crushed her soul. But you can still be sad about your family dying even if they were terrible to you. Most…

She’s a sassy sidekick who is great at negotiating, really badass at math, obsessed with my little pony, good at navigation and keeps her cool in a crisis. For a ten year old that’s not bad.

Uhhhh I hope you’re sarcastic because real life is overwhelming populated by women who are far more beautiful than their male partners. Phoebe Buffay said it herself.

Little Women is the best forever! But this is up there :)
