Hopper season 1: Just a normal chief Hopper season 2: A cheif/detective Hopper season 3: Angry sweaty dad who wants the door to be kept 3 inches Hopper season 4: A Mr.Clean who fights demogorgon's
@@juanjoyaborja.3054 Except we've been shown that he IS indeed strong, atleast I was convinced because he even defeated that Russian spy soldier from S3 Adrenaline can make you do some crazy shit
It makes sense because the Russians said that the demigorgon wanted the thrill of the hunt rather than food, the demigorgon probably wanted hopper to pick up a weapon for an even fight.
In Hopper's head as he picked up Conan's sword, he silently prayed: "Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that one man stood against a demogorgan. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to HELL with you!" And Crom looked down upon Hopper in that moment and said, "You got a lot of spunk, kid. I grant you your request. Give it hell, Jim!"
@@lithose1764 I do see your point but come one look at that stance. everything about this entire thing screams paladin to me. like the respect of the duel shown by the demogorgon plus hop having this whole redemption thing going. divine smite right here
For Hoppe's sword, it was a sword that was held by one of the prisoners during Hopper and his comrades' first confrontation with the Demogorgon. Several weapons have been lying around since their escape, including the sword. When the Russian soldiers give them the top to choose a weapon before letting out the Domogorgon, we can see this sword on the far left among the weapons to choose from. So I guess one of the prisoners took it and got killed and the sword just lay there.
@I'm unity ce n'est pas le sujet. Le commentaire c'était pour ce qui demandait d'où sortait l'épée en pensant que c'était un truc forcé de placer une épée au hasard près d'Hopper.
Bad ass hopper going medieval on the demagorgons first he spears one in the face then decapites one with a sword, pretty sure he'll kill one with a mace in s5
This man survived since season 1, killing a demigorgan without being gifted is already a legendary status, being the father of the 1 gifted child is crazy almost risking his life every episode. Even speared a demigorgan!
He’s been beaten, tortured, starved, possibly sustained freezing injuries, and he kept going! This went on for 8 months and they couldn’t break him, and I don’t think he ever sold out Joyce despite the torture from the prison guards, while everyone else would have snapped. Hopper is the Chad of Chads.
When you have a weapon that is only found in the last level of the game (level 100) which is supposed to allow you to kill the final boss, and after having done so, you come back to walk around at level 10.
The demogorgon was hella injured so I see why Jim beat it. But wow. This was so cool I was screaming. The fact that this injured demogorgon has the intelligence to respect a fair fight? Come on that's so cool. The scene with the demogorgon leading the demo dogs down that hallway into the arena was so Metal 🤘 Hope we get to see more demogorgons working together in season 5
There’s speculation that that sword will be used by Eddie in season 5 when he comes back as a vampire under Vecna’s control (Vecna’s Lieutenant) who will eventually break that control and kill him. Vas the Bloody Handed folks. Turned vampire by being bitten by many bats, and wielding a sword (Sword of Kas). I know for a fact Hopper didn’t leave the sword he killed a Demogorgan with.
The fight on 3 fronts thing was SO cool. This aspect in particular was great to me cuz while everyone else is using either powers, guns or bombs here comes Jim fuckin' Hopper with a god damn sword Badass shit😤🔥
I remember before the first fight between the prisoners and the Demogorgon, I told my dad “They really should have swords, swords have a smaller handle and so they’re mostly made of steel, meaning they’re not as easy for the Demogorgon to break, and they’re just as deadly as an axe” GUESS WHO WAS RIGHT
I love how when Hopper had nothing to lose after losing his daughter he was a shell of himself. However, now with El and Joyce etc he has much to fight for and we get to see his full will power and evolution
Conan the Barbarian is in my top 5 favorite films and I absolutely lost my mind when I saw this. I stood up and screamed with tears in my eyes. I was born in the 80s and really did not live through it the way some of you had but the 80s were still quite alive and well during my youth. And, this sword is a piece of the fabric of many of our childhoods.
In the red corner representing the upside down is the 9ft man eating monster the Demogorgon and in the blue representing Hawkins is the former sheriff monster slaying jail breaking Jim "the dad" Hopper. Going to be a great fight folks, remember to leave your door open 3 inches
Que cena épica eu vibrei vendo ela ontem na estreia ,e ao mesmo tempo que essa cena do HOPPER acontece também acontece a cena da Nancy ,do Steve e da Robin vs o vecna jogando fogo nele e a Nancy atirando pra valer ,mano a Nancy é badass eu amo essa personagem e ao som de Kate bush a cena fica ainda mais emocionante,eu simplesmente não tenho do que reclamar e tenho orgulho de dizer que vi o volume 2 na estreia,eu vi ontem mesmo no dia 01/07/22 eu não deixei pra depois ,sou muito fã pra deixar pra ver depois da estreia
This was mind blowing, seeing a nearly indestructible creature from another dimension that just survived being set fire end up being killed by a man who just survived 7 months of Russian holocaust torture with a primitive blade!!!!!! 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
"Between the time when the oceans drank Atlantis and the rise of the sons of Aryas, there was an age undreamed of. And unto this, Conan, destined to wear the jeweled crown of Aquilonia upon a troubled brow. It is I, his chronicler, who alone can tell thee of his saga. Let me tell you of the days of high adventure!"
While everyone else deals with Vecna and the Mind Flare in Hawkins, Hopper is left with the Soviet Union army after him and a one on one with a demogorgon
I watched the first season of Stranger Things when it first came out. For some reason I couldn't be bothered with seasons 2 and 3 when they came out. But somehow this scene got spoiled for me the moment it got released and I just instantly started rewatching the show from S1 again. What a freaking ride, goddamn.
If you didn't know btw, thats the Sword Of Kas that he is weilding. When Vecna grew in power, he appointed an evil and ruthless lieutenant, Kas the Bloody Handed, to act as his bodyguard and right hand. This despicable villain served as advisor, warlord, and assassin. His successes earned him Vecna's admiration and a reward: a sword with as dark a pedigree as the man who would wield it. For a long time, Kas faithfully served the lich but as Kas's power grew, so did his hubris. His sword urged him to supplant Vecna, so that they could rule the lich's empire in Vecna's stead. Legend says Vecna's destruction came at Kas's hand, but Vecna also wrought his rebellious lieutenant's doom, leaving only Kas's sword behind. The world was made brighter thereby.
Tbf this demogorgon seemed to respect the 1v1 possibly because hoppers the first human ever to cause it real pain, and it was set on fire just before so maybe it was weakened
And so it was that Hopper, having no further concern, sought adventure in The Western Lands. Honor and fear were heaped upon his name. In time, he would become king by his own hand. But, that is a tale for another time.
"I once saw him kill a demogorgon in a prison with a sword. A fucking sword"
Just not an ordinary sword, it's conan atlantean sword.
"Jim Hopper is a man of focus...commitment...sheer *fucking* will"
@@theoddronin1 That fucking nobody... is Jim Hopper
Love the John Wick style quote
That’s the coolest shxt I’ve ever heard someone say about someone
I screamed so loudly when this happened! By the way, this was inspired from the kids' D&D campaign when they were younger. The hero took off an arm and then beheaded the monster.
what episode is this campaign in ? :)
@@eric1628 Definitely the last episode of Season 1 because they only play D&D twice in season 1, never in season 2, and never in season 3
Best part is is that it’s Conan the Barbarian’s sword.
Oh, I thought it was from the Witcher 3 trailer. Geralt cuts off the Bruxa's arm before killing her.
Bit weird but great choice, Conan's sword gains my scream!! Circular end of the story, epic and nerd!! Very good!!!!
Hopper season 1: Just a normal chief
Hopper season 2: A cheif/detective
Hopper season 3: Angry sweaty dad who wants the door to be kept 3 inches
Hopper season 4: A Mr.Clean who fights demogorgon's
Don't forget vietnam vet
*chief
Hopper was a straight badass this entire season.
Every season
@@masrr3678 not really season 1 or 2. 3 and 4 yes.
Demogorgussy
Jim Hopper showing once again why he’s a badass! This scene had my family screaming.
Hes iron man but in the 90's
He isn’t any badass, it’s just plot armour
@@juanjoyaborja.3054 he is badass.
@@juanjoyaborja.3054 Except we've been shown that he IS indeed strong, atleast I was convinced because he even defeated that Russian spy soldier from S3
Adrenaline can make you do some crazy shit
the demogorgon is the badass one
notice how the demi didn't charge at hopper right away, it waited and wanted hopper to square up and prepare, i like that detail
Yeah but if the demogorgan was on hopper Joyce will pick the sword op and chop the head off from the demogorgan
I think the demogorgon at the end had respect for hopper for surviving so long
Plot armor
It was crippled from the Flames, giving Hopper a better chance.
It makes sense because the Russians said that the demigorgon wanted the thrill of the hunt rather than food, the demigorgon probably wanted hopper to pick up a weapon for an even fight.
From a cop to a freakin knight bro 🔥
More like a freaking legend.
“Jim, you pick up the sword…How do you want to do this?” MY DUDE BECAME THE BEST ACTION HERO FROM EVERY GENRE😭😭😭😭😭
That’s not just any sword. That’s Conan the Barbarian’s sword.
+4 strength
At last,it wasn't just me that noticed
The second I noticed the sword I freaking screamed
They really should have gotten the rights to play a bit of Anvil of Crom when he picked up that sword.
Crom is pleased...this is no small feat
This proves once again that "you don't mess around with Jim"
Conan's sword! I fucking hope he didn't just leave it there.
As an 80s kid who loved Conan I lost my shit as soon as I saw that sword 🤪
I'm thankful that I watch that movie even I'm not a 80's kid.
Was wondering if anyone else noticed. LOL.
@@ConservativeBlack same here!!!
I was thinking that like "it can't be!"
I'm calling it now! After this scene here people are so gonna be cosplaying Hopper with a sword!
I hadn’t even thought of this.. now I know what I’m cosplaying as 🙌🏻😎
Hopper just unlocked his inner HellBoy!
did you see him turning a bit red in this scene? I think I also saw his big hand
No not Hellboy, Conan the Barbarian.
I demand they name the sword “The Mindslayer”
It's called the atlantean sword and is from conan the barbarian (1982)
It kind looks like he man’s original sword
This is not a sword, this is THE sword !
I was watching this and thinking "Damn he's like Conan the Barbarian over here..."
Then I found out they literally used the sword from Conan.
In Hopper's head as he picked up Conan's sword, he silently prayed: "Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that one man stood against a demogorgan. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to HELL with you!" And Crom looked down upon Hopper in that moment and said, "You got a lot of spunk, kid. I grant you your request. Give it hell, Jim!"
Sadly Crom wouldn't do that, he's a total dick. He thinks prayer is weak.
hopper is an oath of redemption paladin and nobody can convince me otherwise
Nah he’s a barbarian, that’s Conan’s sword he’s using after all
@@lithose1764 I do see your point but come one look at that stance. everything about this entire thing screams paladin to me. like the respect of the duel shown by the demogorgon plus hop having this whole redemption thing going. divine smite right here
@@cabbagesfm2928 maybe you might be right but I can’t help but see barbarian lol
Was the Conan sword part of the American stock pile???
@@lithose1764 oh yeah I definitely see that too. maybe a multiclass over here
As a kid of the 80's this felt legendary 😍

@I'm unity It's the Atlantean Sword from Conan the Barbarian
@I'm unity ce n'est pas le sujet. Le commentaire c'était pour ce qui demandait d'où sortait l'épée en pensant que c'était un truc forcé de placer une épée au hasard près d'Hopper.
Yeah but it doesn’t make sense how he could grab it when a few seconds ago it was bombarded with extreme fire
@@diegoa.calderon4975 The fire spread was not uniform, so we don't know exactly how the sword was exposed and even if it was, how long it was.
Did you figure that out all by your self
The goat Eddie fighting against all the bats and this scene, were the most badass moments on the show! The way Hopper sliced his head off was 🔥
I find it funny that piercing damage (stabbings, bullet wounds etc) seems to inefficient vs demogorgons but slicing seems so efficient
resistant to piercing but weak to bludgeoning and slashing
in dnd, vecna was slayed by a sword
I think it's because the demo here got all toasty, maybe that made it more vulnerable?
But who cares, we got an awesome kill so
@@telleztoledodavidemilio6565 Yeah, like how it's easier to cut butter with a hot knife.
I always thought about this, i had an theory this demon was so powerfull because they were kept in russia, and its very cold there
Jim is my favorite character and the demogorgon is my favorite villain so this was my favorite scene out of the entire tv series.
The demogorgan accepted the terms of the 1v1
I love how Hell Boy this scene is. Hopper's just so done with these things
Bad ass hopper going medieval on the demagorgons first he spears one in the face then decapites one with a sword, pretty sure he'll kill one with a mace in s5
Mace? Im hopping till he beats one to death with his bare hands
Thatd be cool but… why?
but it was the same demogorgon
My guy the speared Demogorgon and decapitated demogorgon are the same one
@@juanjoyaborja.3054 Stop spoiling my fun 😂😋

@@outdoorscholar6016 Straight Facts Bruh!
Hopper is legit my favorite character he always has my favorite badass moments.
The blade of Conan has killed the Beast
Demogorgons have high intelligence the fact it let its preyhave a fair fight and the confindence the demogorgon had, just crazy
I think part of it is that it was injured (burned by flamethrower) and weakened hive mind (vecna injured both physically and mentally)
Respect to the demogorgan for making it fair
Hopper's a whole unit
"Hopper, what is best in life?!"
I love Hopper character so much, I literally cried when he died in season 3 to find out he lives
When you have a weapon that is only found in the last level of the game (level 100) which is supposed to allow you to kill the final boss, and after having done so, you come back to walk around at level 10.

everyone discounts a Fighter Class character till they need Fighter Class things done.

This is probably one of my top favorite scenes in Stranger Things series! I keep watching it over and over again
By the power of nostalgia 💪🏼

This aspect in particular was great to me cuz while everyone else is using either powers, guns or bombs here comes Jim fuckin' Hopper with a god damn sword
Badass shit😤🔥
Holy shit that's the atlantean sword from Conan the Barbarian!
Hopper kills a demogorgan with the sword from Conan the Barbarian.
Crom was so pleased with Hopper’s bravery against the beast that he gave Hopper the sword to make it a fair fight
That's Conan's sword!
That’s my mom’s profile picture
I remember before the first fight between the prisoners and the Demogorgon, I told my dad “They really should have swords, swords have a smaller handle and so they’re mostly made of steel, meaning they’re not as easy for the Demogorgon to break, and they’re just as deadly as an axe”
GUESS WHO WAS RIGHT
You 😌
Hopper meets his first monster, he kills his last monster
1:10 That Roar was AWESOME, congratulations to the Duffer Brothers they understand.
I was literally expecting him to say "I HAVE THE POWER" when he lifted the sword!
overjoyed with the Conan the Barbarian easter egg, iconic sword
Stranger things AND rdr2 content? You just earned a sub, my friend.
I really hope he keeps this for the war for Hawkins
He’s earned it, you keep what you kill with
I love how when Hopper had nothing to lose after losing his daughter he was a shell of himself. However, now with El and Joyce etc he has much to fight for and we get to see his full will power and evolution
Props to the demo for not giving up. When the fight began he could’ve been like: ‘nah bro I’m out’
The ATLANTEAN SWORD , CROM and Arnold were pleased with this scene .
this was one of the greatest scenes in tv history period
Conan the Barbarian is in my top 5 favorite films and I absolutely lost my mind when I saw this. I stood up and screamed with tears in my eyes.

this has gotta be the most anime thing i've seen in all of stranger things
The music is so great man! I think it’s symbolic that he’s beheading the thing that initially sent HIS town into disarray (the demogorgon in season 1)
Literally framed the same as Neville killing Nagini in Deathly Hallows Pt 2 - love it!
Thank you!!! I’ve been wracking my brain as to what this shot reminded me of. Hopper and Neville are both my fav characters!!!
just think of all the vecna Voldemort comparisons

But somehow this scene got spoiled for me the moment it got released and I just instantly started rewatching the show from S1 again. What a freaking ride, goddamn.
Dude, when hopper picked up the sword it totally turned into something straight out of dnd. It was as if the dm asked, "how do you wanna do this?"
I actually screamed out lout even that happened. Hopper is a legend
THERE WILL BE BLOOD! SHED!
The man in the mirror nods his head
Que temporada incrível 😍
Conan's Atlantean sword.
Hopper gets the moment we all expected with Jon Snow and the Night King.
I love the parallel that the 2 people to have killed a Demogorgon are Hopper and Eleven, father and daughter.
Best fight ever

It’s a little silly but so badass
I’ll take it.
The monster and the superhero it makes so much senseee!!!
Still my fave scene of the show
As soon as I got a closer look, I noticed it was the Arnold Conan sword.
Demogorgon : monstruous being able to beat an army by himself
Hoppers : have plot shield and conan sword
The whole time I was wondering. Where did that sword come from?
Fr bro what Russian soldier was using it💀😭
Russian slaves. They didn’t get the chance the clean up the place before Jocye turn off the power.
@@nategreat2156 when all of the russian prisoners fought it earlier in season 4
Yeah I was confused when I saw that on the floor, this isn't Skyrim where you just see random swords scattered around 😂
It’s from earlier remember when they all got weapons to try and fight it off
I like how murray respected the 1v1 lol
Sheriff Jim "The Barbarian" Hopper.
it was a badass moment but hell first season the big monstrocity was one demogorgan, here Hopper killed one with a sword lol
Tbf this demogorgon seemed to respect the 1v1 possibly because hoppers the first human ever to cause it real pain, and it was set on fire just before so maybe it was weakened
This one was also burnt to shit
@@DarthVader-do8tu You would know, Lord Vader…😉
Steve beat the crap out of one with a baseball bat its not that far fetched.
The atlantean sword from conan the barbarian 1982 glorious reference and amazing movie the young ones should check out
Hopper is the bravest fucking man alive, I wouldve just accepted my fait and died
1:08 hopper is so COLD
The only thing that could have made that scene any better is if when he took up the sword the Conan sting played for like JUST a second.
our sweet Alexei (RIP) said Hop was a fat Rambo.
little did he know he would become *Conan, the Barbarian*
And so it was that Hopper, having no further concern, sought adventure in The Western Lands. Honor and fear were heaped upon his name. In time, he would become king by his own hand.
But, that is a tale for another time.
Hopper the Barbarian can never be topped.
Homage to John Milius' "Conan the Barbarian" 1982. Thank you Duffer brothers!
I instantly knew he was gonna cut off its head LITERALLY THE AMAZING THING HE DONE OMG
That sword is from Conan the Barbarian, great 80s film, really ties into the story.
