This new season of Stranger Things started strong and is better than the previous one from the very first minute. Now, let’s pause to evaluate how huge those episodes are.
All episodes are more than one hour long, and the last one is more than 2 hours! That’s not a show. That’s a movie franchise!
They don’t ruin the show by doing this or anything, but it can make it a bit more tiring.
Usually, there is a reason for you to see a show instead of a whole movie, right? So why not have more episodes but shorter ones?
Vecna - was all worth it?
Everything is connected, not only the hive mind of Vecna and its “things”. Everything was connected or depending on each other in this season.
The Russians were fighting or, at least, using the same things that were attacking Hawkins. It may look absurd initially, but everything starts to make sense soon enough.
The character Yuri made me laugh a few times. He is a bastard, I know, but let’s face it, his craziness gave a light touch to a show full of strong emotions.
Eddie was another character I liked a lot, but his death felt so unfair! And, of course, let’s not even talk about Max.
In the end, those scenes of peace and reconstruction were just to distract us. Do you think things are getting good now? Think again. It’s slightly disappointing, really. After all that work, fights, and deaths… Is Vecna still winning?
Getting better
I loved the first season of this show. But the second one disappointed me, and I wasn’t very inclined to give it a second chance. I’m glad I gave it, though.
Despite its episodes’ size, this season was more interesting and funny. And more importantly, it gave us the answers we had wanted for a long time.
