BYLER MUST HAPPEN IN SEASON 5! pleaseeeee. If the Duffer brothers don't write it in, I'm cancelling my Netflix subscription.

0:13 I don’t understand what you mean “gay panic” in that scene. Also the blue and yellow you keep mentioning? Also the powerful homoerotisism

I’m not understanding the double meaning of “blasphemous” also the yellow triangle

I low-key don’t want them in to be endgame bc the ratings will go down bc it’s “woke” and it’d be a whole thing..I feel like it’d be better if someone died (MIKEEEEEEEEE) and if they made it open ended. This vid has a lot of reaches but overall I totally get the ship.

i LOVED this video!!!! i like the style, kinda artsy. with the music and stuff. also i really like that this video focuses on the cinematic/technical proponents of queer mike & not just the context of the scenes (like in most other analysis videos) great job!! before this video, i did not notice that will is closer to the light source more often...

im soo excited for season 5, drama HAS to ensue

with the pizza he also afterward says something like "your right its good"

and she always WILL

The on screen dialogue is too fast lol. I’m pausing then having to go back again and again. I’m just gonna slow the vid down.

Even putting aside the possibility of Byler, I think the real delusion is people who think Eleven and Mike will make up by the end of S5. Every point of her character arc seems to point directly at her finding power in herself instead of the approval of others. They’ve been laying some serious groundwork to help the audience prepare for Eleven and Mike not to end up together.

Trump won 😂😂😂🥲😄🥲🥲😅😂😂

holy crap wait, i never noticed how hard mike STARES at eddie at 0:13 that is a puppy-love crush if i ever saw one 💀

BYLER MUST BE ENDGAME🎀

what hose scene XD

Also at 4:08 Mike and Will have shirts on with yellow and blue on it (their colours)

I'd like to add that the lesbian mind flayer one of my very favorite byler channels pointed out that working out scenes are commonly used as queer coding! And when Will Mike and El skating someone wearing a I love contact sports shirt shows up.❤

Your analysis is the most interesting I've seen yet, like "the forbidden fruit" pizza innuendo scene is something I never saw. Also pointing out the "halo" lighting aka use of kickers that dates back to an old Hollywood technique of the male gaze that sexualized and made women more alluring but used here in Mike's POV shots of Will is another interesting thing. I genuinely don't think the duffers or the gaffer (or the set designers who might have some culpability but not to this wider extent) are intentionally queer-coding but when they aren't even trying they are making it more obvious than the actual scenes of Will(/Mike) that are supposed to be intentionally hinting at their sexuality.

They have so many deliberate romantic, private, moments in season 4 it's beyond obvious. I always try to parallel it to other, friendships that both Mike and Will, have, they have NEVER acted this way or had these types of scenes with either Dustin or Lucas. To me it has always been obvious.

They knew what they were doing with that song track "In the Closet At Rink-O'Mania", it's so obvious, omg.

15:01 just saying all the couples are behind Eleven

mike is SO queer coded it scares me

I initially thought people were reading into this gay thing. I am now convinced as well. I really hope they can be together. I feel for 11 though.

No because if it’s real (and it seems real like that scene where they are burring someone what else could it be seriously ?!!!) it would be the best slow burn queer relationship ever written. If they really meant all that which I want to believe, it would be such such a win for the queer community. We deserve this, please I’m desperate for this to happen even if they don’t kiss and just talk about it) and if it doesn’t then I don’t understand…

If i wasn't a cinematography student i would think all of this is forced or reached, but theoretically the things you say make a lot of sense. Most audience don't really know the theory of how framing, props, scenery, letters in the background, etc. almost always have a hidden meaning that compliments with extra information what we already know from dialogs. Most people think these choices are made thinking in aesthetics or style, but the making of the scenery, camera angle, position and a lot of other aspects in filming are literally all thinking in how to express the context of the story, the feelings, messages or non obvious information artistically. Plus the little details from the acting are always there for a reason and in shows like these where they give us the information bit by bit, the pshycology of the characters is mainly shown by the acting direction and the interpretation the actors have of the characters themselves (by how the screenwriters describe their personalities, feelings in the context of the scene and way of thinking to the actors of course).

I havent even finished s3 but this is interesting

I kinda liked the idea that mike had a little crush on eddie. And maybe that’s why he couldn’t say ‘I love you’ to eleven. Because he was confused and scared.

most of these feel like a reach, but there is definitely something about how he’s aware of Will looking at him and El with jealousy and how he reacts to it

y'all are reachinggg it's giving kpop idols dating accusation videos 😭🤣

The fact that this old video is trending right now shows how much we are all desperate for season 5 to answer our questions 😂😂😂

I agree that some of these might be reaches. Lol Many of them seem like heavy handed ‘subtle’ things, but they’re also not insignificant. But the one that got me was the scene in the car, with Will’s painting. Like in that moment, everyone in that vehicle knew what was going on, and the way Mike was looking at Will… that scene gets me every time. 😔

I’ve never watched Stranger Things so I know nothing about the show, but some of the analysis (like the fire and pineapple pizza) was just straight up offensive 😭 Otherwise the scenes with Mike and the uhh other guy definitely had gay tension.

Just because you want him to be gay doesn't mean it's queercoded. And even if he ends up being gay in season 5 you'll have been proved wrong. Not everything is some subtle subliminal message

he could also be bi...but it could lean more heavy on one side. yellow triangle. mike, king of denial. he was obviously crying. think will is going to turn in to telekinetic Carrie next season. and Mike's true love will bring him back. lol I think the Duffer brother would be amused. very professional. well done.

Everyone saying this is a ‘reach’ doesn’t understand film. They can’t make it too obvious, that’s the whole point of a slow burn like theirs. The creators have been known to use a lot of symbolism, and it’s not wild to think that all of these were intentional. Anyways I loved your analysis ❤

*TENDER EMOTIONAL MUSIC*

These are so outlandish but I’m not saying I necessarily disagree…

honestly, some of these are stretches, but this is actually a solid literary analysis

13:53 look at the sides of the room. mike's side is messy and in cold colors. as well, the light comes out only out of a closed-up space. it might mean he tries focusing himself on only a few things at once, like for example focusing himself on eleven more than on will. the mop symbolizes that he is still trying to clean the mess inside of himself, possibly the mess about his sexual orientation as well. the curtains are blue, his official color. will's side has light all around the room and the window isnt covered like mike's. it means he focuses at everything in the same time which makes it harder for him. he cares for everyone and everything. his side of the room is much warmer and the colors are warm as well, the curtains being yellow, his official color.

2:34 the fact that California is a WESTern state “blue” mike meets “yellow” will in the “west” california

6:22 burying their feelings

The fact that this goes for 15mins 😭✋

This is the biggest reach I’ve ever seen and I personally AM HERE FOR IT 😂😂😂

I watch a guy who criticizes series in a parodic way. In one video he was talking about a scene where they put all, and I mean ALL the lights on the main girl to show her beautiful and he mocked it because it was obviously too much. That's how I learned that they use this light on character thing to show the character beautiful and the moment I saw 13:49 I knew I KNEW what they were doing.

"We're friends, we're friends" JUST BECAUSE WE MOVED UNIIIITTTTTSSSSSS😝 guys dw he was just trying to sing "Champagne For My Real Friends, Real Pain For My Sham Friends"

watching this after not seeing stranger things after like 2 yesrs i just realized how hot finn was in it

Ohh fr,give my el a bit of break and time to discover who she is before shoving her into such a serious affair as love and pleaseee give my guys justice 😭😭

I looked at the thumbnail and went: “BRO REALLY SAID “MR BEASTTT”.”

MOST OF THESE I AGREE but maybe we're overthinking some a bit!

10:24 BLINDING HIMSELF FROM THE BIG YELLOW LIGHT?!? Now thats something I didn't pick up

7:10 the biggest hint
