nah blood I screamed at that Steven Seagal hip toss
Season 8 of TWD is probably going to be my last. they're doing one of my favorite story lines in All Out War so they get one shot.
Stranger Things legit might be my favorite shows right now. Game of Thrones Season 7 was pure fan service
Episode 7 was a polarizing episode. Fans either love it or hate it.
I loved it. Twas nice to take a break from the old town feel
I had more of a problem with the placement of episode 7. They could've easily moved it to earlier in the season and restructured the story telling.
I believe it's episode 2 that starts with the telling of how eleven got to meet up with Hopper, while continuing with the main story. They could've easily just gone into the hopper eleven fight and El going to see her mom and then going to meet 8. The way 6 ended and then going into 7 was such a huge letdown and killed the momentum of the show so much that if this was a "network" show it would've easily been considered filler, something I thought Netflix and this show in particular prided themselves on.
I do believe we needed the storyline, but an entire episode dedicated to it....nah. If El was going to have an entire episode dedicated to her, it should've been how she met up with hopper(episode 2)
I think she went on her adventure in ep7 because Hopper was missing for a long period of time. This gave her time to contemplate doing stupid things and get in contact with her mom.
You are the only person I've seen who loved it
She went on her adventure because her and hopper had that fight, Hopper gets trapped for days and then tries to call on the radio with that long apology(that eleven gets when she goes to that special place of hers) Like I said I'm all for El going on her own adventure, and none of what I said negated any of the events actually happening(and thats without criticizing how bad the episode was) I'm just saying they could've easily switched back and forth between the hawkins and Eleven's adventure. I mean it would've actually been better if we see Hawkins dealing with the demodogs and then it shows Eleven harnessing her powers.
The fact that this was planned out to air like this is what I feel gets people upset, since it's on Netflix, we expect tighter storytelling and episode 7 wasn't that, I mean 8 episodes for season 1, 9 for season 2....hmmmm, I wonder which episode seemed somewhat tacked on, when it didn't really even need to be an episode. Duffers already showing they can handle multiple characters, and develop their storylines in one episode masterfully. (thats why we discussing season 2)Yet this epsiode has some of the weakest side characters(8's crew) and their whole motivation was pretty wack, as well as 8's usage of her powers.
I agree that the episode was a bit weak, but maybe if they broke it up and included bits in the other episodes, either those episodes or ep 7 content wouldn’t have been as effetive. We’ll never know. However, I thought the timeline of it made sense because everyone was too busy to worry about the other characters as the episodes went by. This is why we got the whole Steve and Dustin bromance as well. It also doesn’t make sense for El to leave after 1 tantrum. It was the build up of Hopper keeping her in and breaking his promises that made her finally say f*** it and leave.
