Spoilers Stranger Things - Season 5
- Thread starter The Grinch Doctor
- Start date
I learned from the comments under the tweet that this is true. Netflix should share this game video recording a bit sooner. Actually, they'll be holding an announcement event on social media on January 7th about this year's upcoming content; they could announce it there.
So I wonder what will make it part of the Stranger Things universe if it has all new characters,time period and setting. Sounds like the have a idea for a show but can't get it made unless they tagged it with a brand name IP to it. The only connection can think of is if they try and go with some nostalgia hook like when this show first started. Instead of 80's nostalgia perhaps they will go for 90's Nostalgia. Them doing a X-Files type of show would make sense. That or Stargate. Instead of opening portals the Upside Down you could have the government figure out to open them to alien planets in distant galaxies. Which I guess you could then combine X-Files feelings with Stargate feelings.
I don't know if there really is an origin story for The Abyss and the Mind Flayer, they strike me as the kind of thing that just happened naturally there.
They already covered all of that in The First Shadow, it covers everything from the military's first experience with The Abyss, the origin of Henry's powers, and the beginning of his time at Hawkins Lab.
Yeah, once the red viney barrier is down, everything seems to just go back and forth seamlessly.
I am wondering if they left things open with Gen./Dr. Kay because they have plans for her in the spinoff. Maybe she's going to come back as it's big bad? I doubt the end of the Upside Down will put an end to the military's interest in the supernatural/sci-fi crap.
The only things that really standout to me as hints at a spin-off would be Nancy in Philly working as a journalist or the Holly, Derek, Debbie, ect, as Stranger Things: The Next Generation.
It'll be about the tragic backstory of the Mindflayer.
Mindflayer was just a innocent pet spider, who got flushed down the toilet by some little kid who didn't understand why that is wrong to do. It grew in the sewers, feeding off toxic waste the government secretly hid down in the sewer after the 1950's. Eventually it figured out how to even open a portal to a different galaxy.
I'm kind of surprised so many people are fixating on the same couple things for the spinoff and ignoring the most obvious one.
Mike has become a storyteller and has apparently created a Stranger Things RPG system in universe.
Which lets them connect entirely new locations, characters and supernatural events to the Hawkins crew without ever needing to show them.
Just as the Party was inspired by DnD, a new cast can be inspired by Stranger Things: The Game

Definitely not that!
Clarity and military precision. Something like "[call sign] to [carrier call sign], I have located the Japanese fleet at [coordinates]."
I ran an AI search on this and according to that search the phrase eyes on target became more popular in the late twentieth century. Prior to that that pilots would use the clock system. This is actually how I remember playing as a kid. "Bogie at ten o'clock" would be an example.
I wonder if this usage declined because of the prevalence of digital clocks.

Regardless--I still want a Nancy Wheeler, P.I. show.
In other words, a completely unrelated show they say just happens to be in the same universe… possibly?
I went into watching that with such hope. TBD replicas? CGI Yorktown instead of CV-16 angle deck Lexington as a stand in? Let's go...One of the many things wrong with the recent film about the battle of Midway was modernisms like "I got eyes on the Japanese fleet!" Pretty sure "got eyes on" is a recent phrase. I'd already been pulled out of the film by all the other stupidity in it, so a that point I was just smacking my head every five minutes.
Le sigh
By the end, I was singing the praises of the extended length for TV version of the 1976 movie. That was slightly better than the original one I saw in the theater (In Sensurround!!).
Best would have been rampkill if he really flew like in the 2019 movie...
The ship mistakes...
The inaccurate slang...
I've refused to watch it ever again. Just like Pearl Harbor.
Hollywood can still make good war movies. Greyhound was decent. But most of them prove Sturgeon's Law.

ST ended in 1989. The first McD opened in Moscow in 1990.
@oktay - please make more of an effort to post actual content with your posts, instead of material posted by other people
That's what Bill Preston says!
Well 11 has got some experience with Kaijus so they should be alright.

Great interview with the Duffers and confirms what i've been saying - the alternate ending for El was put in place for people to have the option to decide for themselves which they prefer, nothing more and nothing less.
It's not uncommon - or at least it didn't used to be - for rural high schools to have more than 4 grades. My high school included 7th grade through 12th grade.
