About the dice rolls in the initial S4 Ep 1 D&D session: Dustin rolls an 11. That isn't good enough. Perhaps foreshadowing that Eleven can't win this battle alone. The roll of 20 gets it done, which can be interpreted as 11 + 9: Eleven plus her 9 friends.

I knew Eddie was going to die because when he was talking about graduating in his introductory scene he said “I’m ‘86” or something close to that. In American slang the term “86” means to stop or get rid of something. I immediately knew the writers would take him from us way too soon lol I also believe those dice rolls are MAJOR foreshadowing, and if you look at Erica’s critical hot dice roll, underneath the twenty is an Upside down number 8. Kali is the goddess of time, soI definitely believe she will play a significant part and there ABSOLUTELY is a time travel element to it. It’s all over the series from Season 1 on. My theory is that 11 tried to reach Henry Creel emotionally and it didn’t work the first time, but if she kept trying, or reached him at a younger age, who knows? Then you might end up with 1+8+11 working together for a “Critical Hit” of 20 to take down the Upside down.

Did you catch this?! In Episode 8, there is a strangely synthesized version of the Journey song "Separate Ways/Worlds Apart," which is deliciously appropriate because it's a great song that was popular around that time, but it plays at the exact moment the gang all go their separate ways to execute the plan that takes them worlds apart. But it gets better. A student of Journey (which I am. BTW, I graduated high school in 1986, the year that this story takes place.) would notice that they conspicuously omitted the famous lyric "break those chains that bind you." They skipped right over it and it felt weird. Why did they do that?! I asked myself at the time, storing it away in my mind. Now I get it! Guess what! It came back around, in Episode 9! In Max's nightmare version of her would-be happy memory, of last season's school dance; some music suddenly starts up. It's The police, performing "Every Breath You take," (another great song that was popular at that time). But which Police lyric did the Duffers choose to emphasize? "Every Bond You Break." Remember their pinpointed Journey lyric? First, "Break those chains that bind you," then "Every bond you break." See the connection? I am picturing the physical bonds (creeping vines) of Vecna's lair, but more so, the psychic bonds between him and his victims, which Eleven and her gang (and even Hopper and Joyce) - all together - combine to "break." Eleven, with the help of her friends, even manages to "break the bonds" both physical and emotional with Papa and her crippling memories from the lab, while Hopper and Joyce are able to "break" the physical bonds of wrongful incarceration in a Siberian gulag. One of the great lyrics of the Journey song is: "If he ever hurts you, true love won't desert you." It's cool that the song which plays as Lucas and Sam are together comes so true as Vecna ultimately does in fact *hurt* her, and Lucas, as the lyric promises, fights Jason to protect her, holds her in his arms as she dies, and stays by her side through her later coma. "True love won't desert you!" indeed! So much respect to the Duffer Brothers who put such richness into their work that they go this deep to provide so many hidden clues, easter eggs and in-jokes. Hat's off, gentlemen!

Another secret that I think is being missed, is Vecna talking to El is closely mirroring how Vader talked to Luke in ESB. Vecna was talking about El not realizing her true potential and asking her to join him. Guess what Vader also said to Luke? "You do not yet realize your importance. You have only begun to discover your power. Join me and I will complete your training. With our combined strength, we can end this destructive conflict and bring order to the galaxy". That sounds a lot like the dialogue between Vecna and El, and in ESB, that's where Vader revealed to Luke he was his father. Guess what we don't know yet? Who El's father is. That's obviously just a theory, but it's still really interesting how it's so similar to the buildup to the plot twist in ESB. I can't wait for season 5. I got that theory from someone else, and I must say, there's a lot of legitimacy to it.

Eddie’s soul is inside his Hendrix guitar! Calling it

@lb6503 Жыл бұрын

When Eleven lost her powers in season 3 she sort of trained to get them back/resurface them.. but Vecna said he took her powers to be able to create portals/gates just like how she did to him back at the lab when he was sent to that other universe. Does this mean Vecna had taken the power to create gates completely? Is Eleven able to take his powers like Vecna did to Eleven? If she did take his powers, would he be able to resurface/get them back? .. So. Many. Questions. ..

There’s the obvious Freddy Krueger vibes that Vecna gives off, but Robert Englund plays his dad, and Englund’s character is associated with the song “Dream a Little Dream of Me”, a further reference to Krueger and how he enters dreams.

Dustin's clothes when Eddie dies: ewoks clothes from SW. Vecna = Freddy Krueger. Victor Creel = Robert Englund, who played Freddy. The evil russian guy who kills Alexei looks like the terminator.

Havent see anyone talk about the entire scene at the end of the finale where Mike talking to L while she was in the tub at the pizzeria. This mimics the end of the original Matrix when trinity is talking to Neo as hes dying against agent Smith. Telling him to keep fighting and using love to give him a second wind.

This season had 'IT', 'A Nightmare on Elm Street,' 'The Thing,' and also 'Halloween.' I love the homage to shooting Vecna like Dr. Loomis shoots Michael off that balcony. It's also like the setup movie for the ending of a trilogy, or saga. You mentioned Empire Strikes Back. There's also "Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" type elements. The ending scene reminds me of where 'Gandalf' says, "The battle for Helm's Deep is over. The Battle for Middle Earth is about to begin." And then there's "Avengers: Infinity War" vibes. Especially when Max was dying in Lucas' arms and saying, "I'm so scared. I'm not ready to die." That was eerily reminiscent of Spider-Man saying *basically the same thing when he died in Tony's arms. And the famous words of Dr. Strange: "We're in the Endgame now." It definitely hits the marks of this being the beginning of the end of the story for our beloved Hawkins gang.

I love how they actually gave every main character's (the four boys - Mike, Will, Lucas and Dustin) siblings enough spotlight to make them eventual main characters too. And because Dustin was the only single child they introduced Eddie and so prominently displayed their brotherhood. Well yes Steve is also like Dustins brother but he's more like a mama-bear-communal+babysitter.

@ Vince Gay in the GQ interview with the costume designer (on KZfaq) she says Eleven was purposefully mismatched to indicate the trouble she has fitting in, a lack of fashion sense & resources (so she wears hand-me-downs) but this was obvious to me. Whereas there’s no real explanation given for Robin’s wardrobe choices…Maybe they applied the same technique to symbolize Robin’s inner conflict & struggles to fit into 1980’s society as an LGBTQ. I may be giving them too much credit, though 🤭
