  • Netflix said Wednesday that nine new episodes of "Stranger Things" will debut next year. The sci-fi series is one of the most talked about shows of the summer. Set in the 1980s, "Stranger Things" is the brain child of 32-year-old Matt and Ross Duffer, twin brothers from North Carolina. Jamie Wax reports.

    The acting in this series is amazing. Especially considering they’re teenagers. Not saying teenagers are less capable or anything and I’m a teenager. But they don’t seem to have any stage fright or overact or under act. These directors made a great choice with the casting.

      Yes and back in the 80s there was always new things to be excited about because everything was new original ideas. Now the movies and TV shows aren't original they are just bad rip offs of that time period. I feel old saying this, but it was just a different time back then lol. I'm only 39. I feel so blessed to have grown up then before Social media and technology. I feel like I got a real childhood. I would hate to grow up in late 90s, 2000. At times I feel sorry for kids now.

    This is where Hollywood is failing... they've stopped taking chances... and the only way you can create fresh new breakthroughs like they did in the 80s was by taking chances on new ideas. Movies and storytelling are art, and it needs freedom to flourish.

    • @JavierGonzalez-lp3ke

      Now-a-days, Hollywood imo is only interested in 2 things really and truly: continuing franchise films with 10,000-people CGI teams and making as much money on summer blockbusters or "Oscar-worthy" films as possible. Basically, money. Craft and storytelling are forgotten elements in filmmaking compared to Dwayne Johnson's next blockbuster hit

    I grew up in the 80s they were the best times. Before Social media and special affects. Everything was original and exciting as far as movies. Nowadays it's sad. There's no new ideas or imagination. It's just special affects and copying old movie ideas again over and over. The original Jurassic Park is still the best and if it was released today as new it would stand. Goonies a masterpiece, The Predator movies, Indiana Jones, to name a few. They where great movies because of the storyline and characters. There's just something so special about Movies from the 80s and 90s that's unlike another time period. I'm so grateful I was born in the early 80s:)
