      The whole memory plot with el is very reminiscent of the umbrella academy season 2 when Vanya revisits her memories. Also the idea of using a powerful memory to aid the powers is like in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban with Harry's petronas.

    What you said about Vecna attacking with his left hand while El attacks with her right reminded me that, in D&D lore, Vecna's original form was betrayed and killed by Kas, who was known as "Vecna's Right-Hand Man." But after every time he gets defeated, Vecna somehow, after a time, manages to come back stronger than ever. That's why, in the first episode, when Vecna appears in the D&D game, Mike protests, "But Vecna was killed by Kas!" Similarly, 001 tried to make El his Right Hand Man, and she basically was for a minute bc she helped him escape, before turning on him and apparently killing him, but actually only delaying his inevitable return to a greater-than-ever level of power.

      Edit: its Eddie's bike with the light, like some others are mentioning. And i think its just steves flashlight that he had when he got sucked under, most likely it just fit best on Eddies bike.
      First comment:
      Oh that's good! Because there aren't true lights in tbe upside down, only red, glittery fragments of light from the real world dimension. That is definitely a nice catch because it definitely means vecna had his eyes on her then

    The most notable feature to recognize a Black Widow spider is the "Hour Glass" shaped marking on it's abdomen. The Hour Glass essentially 'counts backwards' indicating 'how much time you have left. Just like the Grandfather Clock. I believe this fact was the reason the Black Widow was included in the series.

    What about Stephen King's Carrie? A heavily bullied teenage girl (who happens to have telekinetic powers) sees red and becomes dangerous after being publicly humiliated whilst on a date with the guy she had a crush on. Eleven suffers from a lot of bullying this season, and her violent actions at the roller rink during her date with Mike, right after a milkshake is poured on her, must have been influenced by the famous prom scene.

      I thought it was a way for Vecna to boost his psychic powers, either by suspending himself to act as a sort of sensory deprivation (like the salt baths) OR, my favorite, by connecting directly to the hive mind. Sort of like, hardwiring himself with the Mind Flayer. Maybe both! It seems pointless for him to do that JUST to look different when killing?? no one is even seeing him. But I guess it's possible, serial killers/psychopaths are usually very into showmanship lol. Maybe he created it for when people can eventually see him.

    When the Hellfire Club is playing in Eddie’s campaign, the first roll in order to kill Vecna landed on 11 and Eddie screams “that’s a miss” so I don’t think Eleven will be able to handle Vecna herself. Also, if they’re so alike, could Vecna be her polar opposite? Maybe Eleven feels like she’s a monster because she feels that part of her soul existing somewhere else in the Universe??

      11+9=20 and they needed a 20 to beat vecna; this could mean that 11 needs the help of 9 other characters to defeat vecna. But the current main characters in hawkins (other than Eleven) are Steve, Nancy, Will, Mike, Dustin, Mike, Eddie, Lucas, Max, and Jonathan, which is 10 not 9. This also supports another theory that Steve or another main character will die.

    Henry's resolve was cemented by meeting Eleven... In that he finally met someone powerful with no I'll intent, a genuinely good person inside... It's why he seemed legitimately shocked when she accused him of tricking her... He had been locked up, and more or less tortured into submission for 20 years at that point... In a way, he finally met someone who gave him hope, even if it's a twisted version of hope, and then completed his downfall by rejecting him into the upside-down...

      No I don’t think he does at all. He does however have people constantly around him protecting him. And the door would have hurt but not killed him. The Demogorgon didn’t directly attack him. Nor did El. I’m sure he was ushered out quickly. He always has body guards. One probably thought he was dead so no need to do anything else. Yet if he is the “bad guy” he’s thought to be. (Which I truly don’t think so at all now. He loved those children. In his own way) One would have twisted him up regardless of if he thought he was dead or not.

    Well I don't know if this is truly an easter egg but here we go. The way that 1 initially suggested 11 find her power was using a memory that made her angry and sad(what he does) but gains true power through loving memory. It's a little similar to the way the force in Star Wars works. Dark side vs the light, 1 vs 11

    • @benselander1482
      @benselander1482 2 роки тому +24

      Yeah, there's definitely some Jedi vs. Sith vibes going on. 001 teaches Eleven to use anger to tap into her powers, and Kali gave the same advice in S2. In contrast, when Max is escaping from Vecna she goes into a montage of happy memories, which somehow gives her the strength to break the vines, rip that piece out of Vecna's neck, and run back to the real world.
      Typing that last part made me realize that both Eleven and Max both rip a piece out of 001/Vecna's neck. El does it when she removes his implant before he goes on his rampage.

    • @hollydatsopoulos7998

    -One of Nancy's main outfits (in "The Dive" and other eps) has blue/white stripes and a big white "collar", very similar to Robin's Scoops Ahoy uniform from S3.
    -While Max's mom is passed out watching TV in their trailer, the TV show mentions a character named Billy.
    -In the Creel house, you'll see a taxidermied (stuffed) dead cat, followed by Dustin walking in the background. I thought this could be a reference to Mews (RIP).
    -And this may be a stretch but.... breakfast cereals are referenced a few times: Eddie eats Honeycomb out of the box, there is a Cheerio's commercial on TV in one episode, and Erica's D&D character is Lady Applejack.

  • @zaynab4313
    @zaynab4313 2 роки тому +61

    Here are some of my favourite theories I’ve come across so far:
    1. El will defeat Vecna by using the emotion of Love to give her strength. 001 kept telling El to think of sad and angry memories, this is because really it gives him strength, as Max was only able fo escape Vecna when her happy memories came back to her. Same way that El was able to defeat 001 in the Lab when her memory of her mother came into her mind.
    2. I read that vecna is a metaphor for suicide and I thought that was such an amazing idea! ( don’t know whether it’s 100% true but it most likely is ) as he targets victims with trauma, some we can see may have been suicidal like Christie for example how wanted very strong drugs maybe to OD. And others that may not have shown signs of being suicidal but definitely depressed e.g. Max, the boy from the basket ball team etc.
    3. Unfortunately I think Steve might Die to save Nancy, or maybe get stuck in the upside down. It’s clear they both have feelings for each other, and when they were all climbing on that piece of fabric to get back to the normal world Nancy ended up somewhere else (she is clearly the next victim of Vecnas for she has trauma of letting Barb die) so maybe Steve will save her but die or sacrifice himself in some way for her freedom idk that’s just my thoughts I really hope he doesn’t die though one of my absolute favourite characters 😥

Eleven got stronger after hearing her mother tell her, "I love you, Jane!", similar to Harry's good memories saving Harry from being possessed by Voldemort. Also, the way they all seem to have to come together to overcome the evil. Just a lot of things like that.

    • @healingwhilegrowing
      @healingwhilegrowing 2 роки тому +19

      I thought this too! Also the fact that young Eleven defeated One & turned him into Vecna as we know him, just like Harry did with Voldemort as a baby. I also think Dr. Brenner is similar to Snape, in the sense that his intentions will be revealed to be only from a loving standpoint versus what the audience assumed as the story unfolded.

    Nightmare On Elm Street Easter eggs feature heavily into this season. One that I haven't heard anyone mention is Nancy herself. That meeting between her and Victor Creel (with his patched up eyes) felt eerily similar to Freddy meeting his original adversary, Nancy Thompson. Who in part 3 stabs Freddy in the eye with a piece of broken glass. The remainder of the season shows Nancy wearing a blue and white striped shirt. A color invert to Freddy's red and green stripes.

    Also, when they walk into Eddie’s trailer in the upside down, Steve comments that he swallowed the dust and it’s stuck in his throat so does that mean he has the upside down inside him like Will did?

But it can’t be Will’s from when they thought he was dead in Season 1, right? Even if there’s a slight chance they didn’t destroy the grave, the Upside down is years back. It’s barely the time Will had gone missing, just like Nancy said (when she was at the Upside Down and she realised her diary is stuck on the date before Will’s disappearance so many years ago).

    One of my favorite details is that the "upside-down" is not really upside down, its a mirror image of the real world. There are constant nods to this, like just before 001 is thrown into the updside-down 011 throws him through mirrored glass (which I believe is also a nod to Alice in Wonderland, through the looking glass). Another clever nod to this in this season was when Nancy decends the stairs of the mansion in the upside-down after climbing out of the pool - you will notice that the rail is on the left side, but when the visions switch to 001's past in the real world, you can see the stairs have switched side, now having the rail on the right hand side. They do this quite a lot, but they also ignore it when it might confuse the audience - like when they go back to the trailer where Chrissy died, the trailer is not reversed so you can recognize it, nor is the writting in Nancy's Diary reversed.

All of us!” I’m wondering if that just means all of the demogorgans, demodogs, demobats etc…? Or if there are other creatures/humanoids we don’t know about?
    He also has a moment where he is flashed into the upside down when using the pay phone. Theres a group of people walking up to him, one who resembles himself. It never shows the faces of the other people in the crowd. I’m wondering if they were other victims that have been turned, just living in the upside down?
