One of the best episodes of TV I've ever seen, didn't let off the throttle through it's entirety. Can't wait for the final season!

EDDIE MUNSON PLAYING MASTER OF PUPPETS IN THE UPSIDE DOWN WAS LEGENDARY!

"Chrissy, this is for you."

I've never been more heartbroken over a character's death like Eddie's last words were the saddest and proudest words he's ever said and yeah i sat there screaming crying sobbing throwing up

loading replies

This was an emotional rollercoaster. Very happy to live this phenomenon!

This was just in one word fantastic. It's been a long time since I've seen a show land a season's finale this way. I had a lumb in my throat for at least an hour when the drama started to ramp up. In my opinion this last episode is cinema worthy. I loved every second of it.

loading replies

Try as they might, there was just not enough for the gang (especially the Byers boys) to do when it counted. Max deserved better from the story after overcoming so much.

I love this show and this season, this was a very good finale as is always the case with Stranger Things. They're really consistent.

But nearly 2 and a half hours, felt too long. This could have been 2 hours easily or split into another 2 episodes. There's literally 10 minutes of exposition at one point.

BIG SPOILER:
Around the 40 minutes remaining mark, I typed up that I'm glad this show didn't shy away from loss and consequences like others do (looking at you MCU). It gives the world real stakes. But 15 minutes later the showed doubled back - sure there's still consequences and we'll have to see how they play out for one character in particular next season, but the loss was reduced slightly.

I knew Eddie (who had become my fav character in just one season) was going to die. I had resigned myself to that before the finale even started but it still hurt.

Lastly, Eleven spends A LOT of time crying this season.

Perfect conclusion to a basically perfect season! Shocking, fun, genius and emotional. Glad there's one more season to go!

loading replies

There's only a few times in your life you'll live through a cultural Phenomenon. First Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, The X-Files. Something people will remember, reference, and talk about decades later. I truly believe Stranger Things is one of those.

loading replies

They stuck the landing and delivered. A really great, satisfying finale that sets up the final season.

loading replies

Where did the sword come from?

loading replies

I think I must have missed the announcement that there's gonna be one more season after this. I was under the impression that this was the final season, and the super long episodes made me convinced of that even more. I could have sworn I had read that this was supposed to be the end. I watched this entire season thinking the show was coming to an end, and now I've just watched this 2.5 hour long episode thinking it was a series finale, and honestly, I was left feeling very underwhelmed at it. I was thinking "Why haven't they actually wrapped anything up?" then I come on here and read comments to find that there's actually still one more season to go. I guess I'm kinda happy that they're gonna do another season, since that means they'll actually wrap some of this stuff up. But I'd be lying if I said I didn't wish this was the last season.

the new character sacrificing himself to make time is such a cliché and a cop-out from the writers.

Oh, my god. My darling sweet Max. How dare they do this do you? :cry: I AM GUTTED. In my humble opinion, Max and Lucas and their plot have emotionally elevated the finale more than anything else. I cared most whenever they were on screen.

Overbloated beyond belief. Lots of pointless dialogue scenes that serve absolutely no purpose. Particularly annoying is the overextended boring epilogue that goes on forever. Sure there are good scenes here and there,, but not enough to justify the two hour plus running time. This episode ought to have been 75 minutes maximum.

loading replies

i hate every single person that works on this show... my heart is broken and my soul left my body...

loading replies

I have a feeling this season is reducing its target audience's age every season. This season was pretty much for 10 year olds. Because anyone older than that would feel this show is waaaaay too cliché and predictable. The whole "Fight, I'm with you with my heart and I love you" and that suddenly and inexplicably gives her the power of love is way too overconsumed for me to bear. Let alone the small filler lovely heart-to-heart chitchats between characters to make the episode longer.

There's one this I'm sure of. I will NOT watch any more seasons of this. Season 1 was the best. It just went downhill very fast, when their focus shifted from making a great story to making loads of money.

Literally 2 and a half hours of nothing. The Duffer Brothers are cowards and I hate them.

A great episode, but a massive let down, I was promised corpses

loading replies

That finale broke me. It was almost painful to watch, such an emotional rollercoaster! All that mattered for me this season was the wellbeing of Max, so I am not ok right now.

loading replies

Well, Master of puppets by Munson was epic.... They couldn't have chosen a better song I think...

loading replies

come on guys, amazing? the best ever? it was obvious and not at all courageous! Eddie? stupid and ordinary choice. if Max and Lucas were dead it would have been interesting!

loading replies

I got myself way too excited for this. I think i probably would have enjoyed this episode more if everything came out at once or if they didn't hype this episode up so much. I came in expecting something that would really change the status quo of the Stranger Things world, I was expecting multiple characters to die. And technically multiple characters died and yeah the Stranger Things world was changed forever by this season but I'm honestly kind of upset that they didn't kill Max or some other characters. Overall this episode was great and I did cry multiple times throughout the episode so I'm still giving it a 9/10 but I got myself way too caught up in the hype.

loading replies

This season of Stranger Things made me understand why deleted scenes are a thing. Fuck me I’ve never seen such a bloated overflow of boring sub plots and useless scenes to an otherwise good main plot and direction. This was fucking tiring.

loading replies

S4 the best season? it's not my fault if it's true .. also i went through so many emotions this episode, i am not okay and i will need 3 - 5 business days to recover

loading replies

One of the most lazy, banal, predictable and pathetic things I’ve ever seen. I really can’t understand how so many people liked it and even get excited for this… Clichés, plot-armors and pathetic dialogues from beginning to end. The rest of the season ok but this finale is really embarrassing.

loading replies

this gotta be one of the best finale ever with so much tension and all, it shatters you seeing some scenes and my god the reunions are awesome and the ending of the episode sets up s5 so well, can't wait for it!

loading replies

Protagonist who won against her enemies by believing in herself? Are you kidding me? That's all you could come up with?

I rate it "It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation." out of ten.

Obviously such a good episode has such mediocre ending because there will be another season !

loading replies

Fantastic. Incredible. Enjoyed this so much more than I ever expected.

Master of Puppets!!!! That scene gave me chills. So damn good. One of my absolute favorite songs ever.

loading replies

I don't understand how Vecna and Jason can be characters created by the same people.

loading replies

How does Netflix have me watery eyed at their series finales EVERY TIME!

loading replies

It was decent enough but lazy and predictable writing for the most part.
The use of Master of Puppets was excellent.
Really don't get the point of the movie length episodes this season though. Is it a way to cheat the actors out of their 'per episode' salaries like Game of Thrones did? If so that's super shitty of them.

We're now pushing an already tired IP into a 5th season though coz plenty of people will still lap it up and make them money. Not sure where else we can go at this point.

loading replies

Sumbitch this was fantastic! I’m not huge on this fantasy genre, but the acting was so incredible. I was worried the charm of the kids would run out now that they’re older, but I was happily surprised. Shows like this come along once in a lifetime.

loading replies

That was an awful season compared to last 3...

loading replies

I was 110% sure this was the final season, I know I read it somewhere and this was the reason it took so long to release it and why it cost so much, so when I had 20 mins left I was like wait Vecna is still around how are they gonna off him in 20 mins? And then I had 10 mins left and I was like that’s not gonna happen… so it turns out everybody and their mama knew this wasn’t the final season???

loading replies

literally every actor in this deserves every award ever, but special shout-out to caleb mclaughlin. i cried who else cried.

loading replies

2 and a half hours. Longer than some films. Longer than Most films. And it’s one episode.

loading replies

Honestly, it was fine, but it definitely is a build up for the final season and one big cliffhanger. Just wish there were more stakes with people dying etc. Plot armour is strong on this show. Only side characters can die, apparently, main cast always comes back somehow.

loading replies

Skipping most of the boring Russia subplot scenes made this season much more focused and bearable for me. I hope they don’t make this mistake in season 5, it felt utterly useless to the otherwise great story.

The fact that we have to wait ANOTHER 2-3 years for this. I'm just devastated.

Eddie should have got a spin-off but based on the Dungeons and Dragons 80’s cartoon series lol.

loading replies

A long episode, longer than many movies, wraps up the season with plenty of exciting moments. I think the whole thing was exciting and gave the characters a lot of heartfelt and action beats.

The actual action ends about 40 minutes before the actual episode ends. The rest is just aftermath and there's a lot they try to wrap up. I think that's an unfortunate side effect of the season pacing.

The last ten minutes sets up the next season.

loading replies

Does Max constantly listened to the same song over and over and over? That would drive me crazy way more than worrying about Vecna. LOL.

loading replies

It was a slow and slightly boring season, but it ended with a great finale. This episode had suspense but also genuine feeling and heartbreak. If only the entire season could have been this good…

loading replies

Next season just give Will a bf or something, that isn’t Mike. Since there was even a recent poster on Netflix of only Mike and Will on it like they were together.
Which would be lame after the whole series was about Mike and Eleven. Love sick mopey Will was also annoying though and they should do better with him.

loading replies

Drawn-out scenes, soppy dialogues, power of love bullshit, and a fucking cliffhanger as cherry on top. A garbage finale for a garbage season.

loading replies

Good lord man. I barely have any words to describe how stunned and numb this left me and my wife. Just when you think the scale of each season finale couldn’t get any bigger, the Duffer brothers keep proving us wrong.

Some things to point out

-Jason dies. Good. Fuck him!

-After a badass demogorgon decapitation, Hopper & Joyce finally reunite with their children -cue happy tears-

-Eddie went on a literal high note and his death almost rivals Bob’s in terms of heroism and devastation. :pound_symbol:justiceforeddiemunson

-El flat out rejects Max being dead as canon. Not sure how she can do that unless she somehow developed healing powers but oh well.

-See Nancy, this is why you always shoot for the head. Now we have no idea where Vecna could’ve gone off to -_-

-This is probably the only season where nothing bad happens to Will. Not sure how long it’ll last though.

I know there is one season left that’s currently in production, but man I have no idea how the hell they can possibly top this.

So emotional and intense. I hoped the show would end with this season, I don’t know how much more of this I can take :dizzy_face:‍:dizzy:

I feel like the last 30 mins or so was dragged out but it was a great ending. Can’t wait for the new season

loading replies

The episode was quite suspenseful at times but overall it was too lengthy, they could have divided it into a couple of shorter episodes. I like watching everything in one sitting and I was just waiting for the resolution because the show is quite engrossing so I really had to know. It is really sad what happens to Max at the end since it looks like she is going to live in a coma. There were some moving scenes like Dustin's conversation with Eddie's uncle or Eleven's reunion with Hopper. Though it looks like the characters are in for a real serious trouble next season, I've heard it is going to be the last one so probably there will be a Shakespearean ending of "everyone dies".
