001 being Vecna is really a mind blowing aspect and the monologue that he had in the final episode was perfection, by far the best season (at least for me)

One scene I wanna say that was underrated cause it wasn’t action packed was the whole mirroring of the younger kids riding their bikes in the real world to go to Eddie’s while the older kids Steve Nancy Robin and Eddie was riding bikes in the upside down to go to Eddie’s as well……that little shot was perfect 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I think Vecna’s/001’s villain monologue at the end was absolute perfection.

The fact that Will is getting third-wheeled on his birthday makes it so much sadder

The part where Erica rolled a nat 20 while Lucas scored a buzzer beater was genuinely one of my most favorite scenes in the series.

They were so smart with how they revealed Vecna’s identity. They gave clues left and right, but we were only focusing on how he may have been 001, but little did we know he would be both.

This season might be my personal favorite, obviously after the first. We got the horror aspect back and the mystery aspect back while it all felt logical 😮‍💨

Season 1: Alien + E.T
Season 2: Aliens + Goonies
Season 3: Red Dawn + The Thing
Season 4: Nightmare on Elm + Hellraiser

Chrissy’s death also resembles Tina(Christina)’s death in Nightmare. With a “bad boy” being framed for it.

Y'all, I don't think any of us are ready for volume 2. The Last episode is nearly 2.5 hours, we are in for a journey. Can't wait!

Loved it. Bower and Sink deserve Emmy Nominations. Running Up That Hill and Vecna Ending scene are two of the best television has to offer. If they nail the last two episode this will be the best season.

I’m so scared that those festering bites on Steve is going to get worse 😭

@michellecerna6262 4 years ago

The scene where Max is running away from Vecna was a masterpiece!!!!

@artzyleen 4 years ago

I really hope they will let Eddie live! Such an amazing actor and the character is beyond loveable the first few minutes you saw him!

@MrLump 4 years ago

I like that Vecna being formed by the lightning is very similar to how Palpatine’s wrinkly sith skin is reveled by his lightning powers.

@23snowy23 4 years ago

I think Eddie is going to grab his guitar from the trailer and shred some 80s metal solo to get nance back, like he was seen in the season 4 trailer...

@vicnent651 4 years ago

I knew that the "Orderly" was 001 immediately, but that he was both Vecna AND Henry Creel was a shocker.

@ninjapumpkin0127 4 years ago

The scene with Vecna and Nancy is also set up in a way that seems to be a reference to A Nightmare on Elm Street, with Nancy being the name of the lead survivor in said movie as well.

im still here tryna figure out how Hoopers feet broke and recovered instantly.

During 001 and El's confrontation you can see him on one side of the rainbow and El on the other, showing who's standing in "the upside down" and who on the real dimension, even in the wall the rainbow is turned upside down on his side of the room, really minor detail but it made me smile.
