The soundtrack is freaking great! I really dig the remix of "separate ways" and the cover of "California dreaming" and of course "running up that hill"
Also the song that plays right after Eddie dies is pretty good. Can't think of the name though.
Y'all are awesome. This show has been a music trip down memory lane for me. I am from a small town in Indiana and was tbe class of '86 so Nancy and Steve are my age. There are so many things that trigger memories here. Thanks again for everything. 🎸🔥🎸
Steve it has been scientifically proven that jalapeños, pineapple, and pepperoni are the best three toppings to stimulate the mouth a.k.a. the best pizza possible, salty, sweet, spicy, name a better combination… … I’ll wait
The scene that broke me was Max sobbing about how she couldn’t feel or see and how scared she was. Lucas looking around not knowing what to do to help her but stroke her hair and tell he knows she is scared. It was so chilling to me. 😭😭 I cant even imagine.
Absolutely. It stirred up memories of when my best friend had stage four cancer and nothing was working. It had to be scary for him.
Even the fact he was begging his sister for help and he never ask her for anything
And the fact when she saw them she did not make any dumb quips she seemed horrified she was even in her hospital room and she seemed sad
@@judeless77 Wow what age did he pass away that's sad.
People expect folks to die like Eddie or gurgling like a war movie casualty, but in reality people are often frantic and flailing, and Sadie Sink really got that right
Max having suicidal ideations & then realizing she actually didn’t want to die is literally how those who suffer through depression & who failed suicide feels. Her in episode 4 and then in this episode truly broke me and had me sobbing.
ikr 😿
Same. That's why I am so relieved they didn't kill her off. That would've been such an unsatisfying end to her arc and not to mention quite a bad message to send after everything she's been through. I know the situation is still quite dire but I would love to see her continue to persevere to live.
Story of my life .. sorry for evry one feel that shi* , its not somthing easy to deal with
That was goood, but i fell like her acting was too calm in that scene, i wish she gave us more, that would have broke people, especially from a character that tries to remain calm all the time
She wasn't looking to die a gruesome death as she said in Episode 4. And having guilt and thinking doesn't seal the deal that she has active intentions for it. That's my impression.
No matter how many times I watch that scene where Max “dies”, I always cry because of Caleb’s performance. It’s so moving and emotional I can’t help it 😭😭
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
With acting chops that good, he better be going places.
Crazy how good the whole cast is since they were little kids- best thing about the modern era is how much better child actors are than in the actual 80s lol
He’s such a good actor
Same here 😢
Eddie telling Dustin that he loved him was totally improvised by Joseph Quinn and so was Gaten's reply.😢
So was the part when Lucas calls out for his sister as Max dies
@@The_Texan_American Yeah but I prefer the Eddie one.
@@The_Texan_American That's the one that kills me everytime (Yes, I'm now watching people's reactions).. I'm already balling when Eddie dies but when Lucas says, "Erica. . Help!" and then he lets out this guttural cry, that honestly is an Oscar worthy performance, and I go into full hiccupping, can't breathe through my nose, my sinuses are about to burst kind of ugly cry.
@@eiquirae3459 wtf no
The Max'words: "I'm scared, I'm not ready to die" broke my heart for a long time.
Acting in this show is 10/10
Exactly
Same
10/10 what the hell 100/10
Lucas’ reaction to Max’s “death” gets me every time. I loved his acting in that scene.
“Erica, help” was improvised
@@lukemendez7308 did you read that from another comment? Interesting.
@@ghandiman The stranger things writers posted that it was on Twitter. Same with Eddie's "I love you, man" to Dustin and Jopper's second kiss in the prison. All improvised by the actors.
and it was kinda ruined when El brought her back wish they just stuck to their guns and actually killed her off but they're too scared to kill off beloved characters
Dunno. Dustin did a lot better acting with eddie.
When you can introduce a new character and nine episodes in, kill him off and have everyone weep over him, you know you've written and acted something amazing.
It was cruel bro , they shouldn’t have killed eddie , atleast they should’ve let him for the final season😢
Nikki looking away when Eddie said “I didn’t run away this time” was my exact reaction but I was crying like a baby 😅
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
My poor boy Eddie 😢
The thing is that this whole scene between them there was unscripted.
@@kuxi7915 tbh, scripted or not
It was just Eddie finally taking a stand instead of running away got to me
I knew he was gonna die but it didn’t take away from the impact
right before he said it I said to the tv " you didnt run away this time" and then when he said it I broke
Max's death is truly heartbreaking. She doesn't wanna die and she's begging for help. It's one of the saddest things ever.
and they're gonna ruin it by bringing her back next season hell she's probably the one that's gonna kill vecna
@@dragonslayerbigpimpcumdriz9512 they confirmed she’s blind deaf and brain dead
@@dragonslayerbigpimpcumdriz9512 they should have saved eddie and double down on max' death, or maybe max will remain dead either way. I do have the feeling this series isnt gonna end well
@@dragonslayerbigpimpcumdriz9512 shes lost but not dead- its obvious. I fully expect her to return. It wont ruin it because it is supposed to happen and not a hasty written retcon. The one thing the duffer brothers show is they understand story so the return will fit and have meaning.
@@dragonslayerbigpimpcumdriz9512 They’re going to ruin her death? I don’t see how that would ruin it unless you want her to die. The fact that she is brain dead now is tragic enough. If killing Vecna can save her, that’s a major win.
Eddie’s death was so hard for me and Dustin’s reaction made me cry even more. I am so glad that Dustin got to tell Eddie’s uncle that he died a hero. Max saying she was scared and didn’t want to die was heartbreaking, Sadie Sink and Caleb McLaughlin were outstanding in that scene. A great season and cannot wait until season 5.
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
Honestly I think I broke down harder when Dusty was talking to Eddie's uncle... he deserved SO much better
I can see Dustin carrying on Eddie's torch. Leading Hellfire, becoming a metalhead, and willing to throw down if people drag Eddie's name through the mud.
Eddie reminded me so much of myself in high school. I was heart broken seeing how he went out 😢
max’s “death” reminded me of peter parker
I like how Eddie says “okay” after Dustin says he’s gunna be fine once they get to a hospital. He’s saying that to humour him. He knows he’s dead, but doesn’t wanna just say that to Dustin.
They actually based Eddie on a real person. There was a triple homicide of three eight-year-old boys in 1994. The satanic panic was in full swing and they pinned the crime on 3 teenagers (the Memphis three) who were “different”. Damien Echols was dubbed the ringleader. He wrote dark literature, had long messy hair, wore dark clothes, and liked heavy metal music. You can see the similarities. I honestly think that’s one of the reasons they left Eddie’s reputation wrecked. The men in the actual case were convicted despite almost no evidence. In 2010 new dna evidence came to light and it didn’t match any of the men but they only got out by issuing an Alford plea. Basically the court didn’t want to look like they messed up, so they offered the deal because Echols was on death row and they knew he would take it to save his life. They are still trying to actually clear their names to this day.
That's messed up! 😮
@@Langley_Ackerman19 it really is. Several documentaries have been made about the case. People will just have to keep pressing for justice.
He is proven innocent esp with incontrovertible DNA evidence. And there is not much comparison between either. Maybe inspiration but that's about it.
@@genghisgalahad8465 yes but they had to plead guilty to be freed...
@genghisgalahad8465 The writers confimed the character was based on Echols, who actually responded to the show "In case anyone else is wondering, I was tremendously honored by it. And I greatly appreciate all the new eyes and hearts it has brought to our fight. I was watching it at 3 am in the morning, and when I heard the very first chords from Master of Puppets, my heart exploded."
Probably because some of the "evidence" that convicted him was a "psychologist" that testified that listening to Metallica proved he was a violent psychopath. It wasn't coincidence that Metallica was specifically chosen as the way Eddie tries to help _save_ the world
I’m so sad Eddie never got to meet Eleven but also imagine how hilarious an Eddie/Argyle interaction would have been. I know I’m prob delusional but I’m still hoping Eddie will somehow be alive.
Actually Eddie never met Joyce Murray Hopper Eleven Will Jonathan and Argyle
@@telee8226 I know it’s awful. Not only am I sad he died but he didn’t get to meet everyone 😭
They could’ve both hidden away in the cabin together seeing as they’re both wanted and they could’ve developed a sibling bond with each other
I guess I’m delusional too lol I want him to be alive still
More interactions with Murray and Erica in season 5 I hope
I met Grace, the actress for Chrissy, at Disneyland today! I love that Eddie gave respects to Chrissy before his performance.
What lol
@@carlossaraiva8213 “come on you apes, you wanna live forever?”
@@carlossaraiva8213 Damn, I knew her surname was familiar somehow!
@@krashd her and maya both in that situation heh
That scene with max and lucas deserves an award. That was some of the best acting ive seen revolving around somebody “dying” it was so realistic. The things max was saying is the things ppl that are dying say. The things lucas was doing and saying such as the looking around for help, the stroking her hair not knowing how to help, screaming for erica to help out of adrenaline bc she cant do anything besides call 911. Best scene ive probably ever seen in a show
Give them all the EMMY's! They deserve it. Specially Sadie Sink for her Max superior acting skills.
they were def snubbed on this...
I feel like the show gives you 30 seconds or so to wipe away the tears from watching Eddie’s death just to punch you in the face with max’s death. This was such an unbelievable season of tv, every single member of the cast new and old brought deep emotional performances.
The soundtrack, the shots and the story were all next level this season too.
Have to give a special shout out to Millie, Caleb, Sadie and Noah for their performances, so gut wrenching and raw I really hope the fact that they are younger actors or on streaming shows doesn’t dissuade them from getting award nominations and wins because they all thoroughly deserve it.
fr…. like 30 seconds is NOT enough.
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
And gaten his performance was incredible
Fair warning. The Duffer brothers stated that season 5 will be even more heart wrenching (ie ugly sobbing!).
@@tringuyen7519 oh no what my heart can’t take it 😭
This episode was so good but literally broke me. I cried twice for Eddie. His death and then when Dustin told his uncle he was a hero. I’m so concerned about Max as well. But this show has been amazing all season. It’s def my favorite season now.
I was yelling at my tv when eddie died and I cried at the scene when max was speaking then die for a minute.
They should've killed Max for real. I like her but nobody dies in this damn thing other than characters introduced at the start of the season.
@@ilikepineappleonpizza4257 true. i mean maybe next season we will find out she can’t be saved. Idk. I get it though. It doesn’t bother me personally enough though. Still my favorite season of Stranger Things.
@@ilikepineappleonpizza4257 The point of her surviving is twofold. First, that Eleven did everything she could and wasn't able to fully rescue her, and that we don't know if she is brain dead or if her mind is taken by Vecna while the body is still alive.
@@ilikepineappleonpizza4257 right! Thank youuu. I really hate that their killing off new characters the seasons their introduced, killing off characters that have been there for a while like Max has much more emotional impact, and gives them the ability to bring new people on and hopefully keep them there for more seasons. I wish they wouldn’t have killed Eddie and just Max.
The song played during Max's death was played in the season 1 finale during Will's resuscitation. It is one of the saddest sounding songs I've ever heard. Haunting. *cries*
My theory: since Vecna/One said that everyone he kills stays with him, Eleven is not just going to kill him in the final season, but she’s going to try to rip the part that is Max out of him and cast it into her body to bring her fully back. That’s why they kept referencing that those he kills don’t fully die, and why they explicitly showed that Max’s body is just an empty shell now.
Thats actually a pretty good theory. It also brings more significance then simply "she got better" by having Eleven literally save her. She kept her body from dying but now she has to save her mind from vecna.
Another theory, the possibility that Eleven might die killing Vecna and shutting out the Upside Down for good.
@@ZeddiLeppi I'm not inclined to think Eleven will do the sacrifice thing again. They will figure out a way, and perhaps Eleven will tap into some new power to seal it for good without dieing. Afterall brenner was sure she hadnt reached her full potential yet and even Eleven knows it but she has to figure this out on her own. I have pretty good idea how they will do it as theres been bread crumbs dropped throughout the show pointing to how Eleven unlocks her full abilities. It has to do with her emotions, she's been taught that her negative emotions focus her powers, but often she has the most control and strength whens she's having happy memories and feeling loved. I think that's the key to her reaching her true potential, the negative emotions are actually holding her back and she'll realize it. That's how she will be strong enough to defeat vecna and seal the upside down. I imagine the final battle will be epic in scale.
This is what I was hoping for as well, except I realized that vecne didn’t her memories and soul, because otherwise why would she still be aware of who she is and those around her after vecne left her mind and Lucas was holding her? Seems like he soul passed on and she was brain dead for so long that after eleven resurrected her, it was too late… I hope you’re right, but it seems unlikely
The duffers have already confirmed that Max's current condition plays a pivotal role in the final season. So there is a reason for it.
Fun fact: the scene where El is finding young Max. That young Max is Sadie sink's sister Jacey Sink.
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
Cool I hadn't heard that.
Nope. That's not her sister. Her sister is now 12 years old.
@@sonnyreyes6485 it is her sister
Yep it was her real sister
Finally seeing everything that happens this season explains why they were fine showing Hopper was alive in the trailer. That was so small compared to the rest of the story 😂 Best season by far!!
@@rumham7466 Yeah I stayed far away from the trailer for vol. 2 of this season. Ive watched it after finishing the show and am so happy I did, but it's a great to watch afterwards haha Also RumHam makes me know you have good taste.
Good point now that you mention it 😅
Caleb did an incredible job. Man I felt like my son was hurting and I couldn’t do anything to help him it broke me.
That scene when he was holding max and el was crying with him too oh God I lost it
You did good
When Nikki Cries We All Cry :( Give That Beautiful Soul a MASSIVE Hug Steve!
No
@@bubbles2624 why
Max is my favorite character of the show--been able to connect with her the most since her first appearance. Was absolutely sobbing so uncontrollably while she was crying in Lucas' arms, saying how terrified she was of dying after spending months pleading with the universe to kill her. That death, whether she's gone for good or not, is going to stick with me for a very very long time. Still not over it haha
Sadie Sink just brought a natural chrasima and likeability to Max. And as a young actress bringing a new character into an established cast in the second season of a love show as big a ST must have been daunting, but she nailed it and Max fit in perfect.
Same 😭😭😭I'm still crying this music too makes everything worse, I am so sentimental , I loved her
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
And you forgot how she prayed for her brother to die...?? Yeah, great character development. Since she came in the second season I felt she was a filler role and an annoying one. I have been hoping for her character to grow, like Robins and even Eddie's, but since season two, she's been subpar. Hopefully season 5 can better her character because she's really the worst. I'd rather have Bob back.
It’s stranger things, they never have permanent consequences and death. I love the show but it’s never permanent
that max and lucas scene was so beautifully done by sadie and caleb. caleb improvising calling to erica for help was heartbreaking but absolutely perfect. i was definitely in tears 😭 overall, sadie sink was the standout this season for me. she is phenomenal.
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
Give these damn kids the emmy's already. This season was an absolute masterclass in television.
Fun Fact: Joseph Quinn (Eddie) spent months learning how to play MoP (he'd been playing guitar for years, but not that song), & what you're hearing is his performance (recorded & dubbed in, of course). He got everything down *except* the solo. For the solo, they brought in Tye Trujillo, who is the son of Metallica bassist Robert Trujillo...
He can't be that good on guitar then as Master of Puppets is all power chords except for the solo and you can learn those chords in a day.
@@krashd Master of Puppets played properly with all down strokes in a way that sounds good and clean and not rushed and sloppy is definitely not something your average guitar player can learn in a day.
@@ZosoZeppelin13 It still wouldn't require months. I'm a guitar player and I can pick up the jist of most songs in a matter of hours or days unless it's a song that is heavy on scales and solos.
@@krashd That’s YOU. not everyone else.
He spent two years learning the song.
Been waiting on this episode reaction! Thank you for these vids. IM SO excited for this one
Yes sirrrrrr 💯
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
theres so many improvised scenes in this episode. The kiss between joyce and hopper in front of the screens was improvised, eddie telling dustin I love you man was, lucas saying erica help was,. and a older scene where they stole the van eddies line dont you big boy was improvised
THE KISS WAS IMPROVISED!?!?!? OMGGGGG 😩😩😩💕💕💕😍😍😍🤣🤣🤣
@@IsabellaN777 They both have partners don't make it weird bru
@@arctica3037 I'm the last person to ship real life people especially those who have partners, but why can't I be happy anyways? take a chill pill
@@arctica3037ur the only one making it weird tho, “bru”
46:53 One of the best things ever is the friendship between Steve and Robin. That moment when Steve is walking past a hugging Jonathan and Nancy, while Robin is there for him. What a great show.
Regardless of how anyone else took it. I think Eddie went out in a way he wanted. The same went for him, regardless of what anyone else thought about him, he chose to distract them longer and to die fighting them off. He wanted to stop running, and not only that, Chrissy is still clearly very present in his thoughts and he had Dustin there with him. I’ve also not been that emotionally invested in a character in one season in a long long time. The one aspect that makes it so fucking sad is that they’ll never know he was innocent, the town will always see him in that light and yes his character deserves better than that. They would have loved him. Rest peacefully Eddie Munson.
Most metal ever.
Nikki's compassionate attitude will help towards the kids growing up to be loving and caring adults.

They did him so dirty with the death. Only Dustin acknowledged it
@@lukemendez7308 Also his death kinda doesnt make sense? like, for his plot it does, but if they just got out of the trailer the bats would have died seconds after
@@jyutifloy Eddie didn’t know that though
When Lucas said “stay with me” and when Eddie said “I didn’t run away this time, right?” That broke me.
When Lucas became desperate for max to stay with him I lost it....UGH man it fucks me up bad every time
@@masonasher9689 I legit cannot get through that Max and Lucas scene without crying . Just as I think I don’t have anymore tears left I still manage to cry when I watch it.
@@terry-annfrancis1252 yeah
2 hours and 22 minutes. A masterpiece. I’ve never been so emotional, wound so tight, so stressed, so angry…..every emotion, I felt it. There are so many things I loved, loved when hopper slays the demogorgon with the sword and it switches between that and Steve, Robin and Nancy lighting Vecna up. That version of running up that hill to those visuals? Perfect. Eddie, Max, cried and cried. Still feels awful. The music that played in the final scene where they’re looking out over Hawkins, that was like some big blockbuster movie soundtrack kind of music, phenomenal. The stakes were raised this season, and this season went above and beyond. Well done, Stranger Things, you outdid yourself.
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
Same here! It's the best thing I've watched in years and years.
@@nightmarishcompositions4536 absolutely agree. And there are people out there who absolutely hate this season, I’ll never understand it.
@@Chrissybrit43 me either
It’s not often you have a scene so beautifully done and extremely touching that it makes you cry everytime you watch it! That’s what Max and Lucas did to me! Their performances were perfect!!
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
That scene and Dustin telling Eddie's uncle he died a hero destroyed me 😢
Lit Compilations It really was incredible
Eddie was such a great add to the show, i was crying with his death because i really wanted him to become a regular character but the way he went.. AMAZING.
We were ALL there with you Nikki, sobbing at the Eddie/Max scenes uncontrollably….. Such an amazing episode, such an amazing series, and even better reactions 😭🤧🫡
😫 Eddie gave us outcasts a comfort character
The most bad ass thing is Joseph Quinn himself. He really learned how to play the Master of Puppets riff from James. And you could clearly see that by the motion of his fingers on the fretboard. Everbody who can play guitar, knows that MoP is one of the hardest songs to play (even the rhythm-guitar). Especially when your are only downpicking (like James Hetfield does).
I love that the creators of the series really focused on this detail. I hate it when actors only pretend to play an instrument.
I'm not sure if you heard this but Rob Trujillo son actually played the solo he's credited for it...it's the one part the actor couldn't get....
@@jase4010 Jepp, and that makes it even better! The whole band responded. They are fans of the show and they really liked what they made out of their song. It is no surprise that they like the show. James and Kirk are huge Lovecraft fans. I actually discovered Lovecraft because of their Song The Call of Ktulu!
@@jase4010 yep! Tye Trujillo is listed in the credits.
Yeah I was pleasantly surprised to see realistic fret-hand action during that scene, not the usual spaghetti fingers that they have in TV shows and movies lol. MoP is not one of the hardest songs to play though, it's tough but would say it's intermediate level if you ignore the solo. The solo is super hard.
@@homedogoli Hardest is the wrong word maybe. Exhausting I would call it. It is over 220 bpm and almost 9 minutes long. Let's just say, it is the perfect song to really fuck up the muscels in your forearms!😁
I think Vecna "absorbed" Max. Hence why Eleven saw into Max's head and it was empty. So in season 5 Eleven needs to battle Vecna and take Max back.
I liken it to having to go save Han from Jabba’s lair. This season went hard Empire Strikes Back.
Yup. Eleven is going to have to into Vecna's head in order to rescue Max. It's going to be epic!
That's what I think will happen too.
I hope Will plays an important role in it too. He clearly has a connection to Vecna.
@@erikperhs_ I could be very wrong but I wonder if it's a red herring his thing for Mike. I think instead he knows what is going to happen to them. Maybe he knows what Vecna is going to do. He does have a connection to the upside down. He will be a main player in the last season I think
Ps like I say it's just and idea
Eddie was such a great character, I've fallen in love with Joseph Quinn. And just found out he was a soldier/guard at Winterfell on Game of Thrones. I've been waiting to see your reactions to this episode. So many tears.

You probably already know this but Hopper's Russian friend is also in GoT. He was the faceless man.
@@amymoquin8636 Yep, he's Jaqen H’ghar, assassin for the Many Faced God.
The scene where El and Hop are reunited gets me everytime. The acting is so genuine and sincere. 😭
Nikkis reaction was me watching this for the first time. Absolutely beautifully written. All the actors did a fantastic job too. ❤❤ Cannot wait for the next season
What did they do with Max , the girl just suffers, lost her brother, her WHOLE family is broken, her stepfather left her mother full of debts, her mother only drinks and works herself to death, her real father abandoned her, she faces anxiety, depression, guilt, pain all alone keeping it for her, she was blind, all bent, broken, in a coma, no memories, because I just want her to be happy a little she doesn't deserve this, I'm destroyed!
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
Yes I do to! I’m scared I really want her to live and not be blind next season but I heard people saying the duffer brothers stated next season will be even more sad
Bruh I'm just in tears bc max deserved to be happy, she was not happy throughout her life and died such a horrible and devastating death. Fuck man I'm crying again
@@masonasher9689 For real though. They are always doing Max dirty.
the duffer brothers said in a podcast that max is braindead, blind, and has broken bones. Knowing this and the fact that vecna takes everything from his victims, I think max will be irrelevant in season 5 until they defeat vecna. Will will now be one of the most important people next season, possibly giving up his life to save hawkins. They also said that the series finale runtime will be similar to a feature film, and I hope they can release in in the theaters cus I would love to watch it in imax. Very excited!
Agreed, first thing I thought was that Veccna absorbed her when she died. He wasn't just being a psycho when he said all of his victims live within him. Once they kill him she'll return to her body.
the duffers also said the demobats "aren't deadly" and in vol 2 they're the reason eddie died lol. honestly i don't think they can reveal what's the plan for max BECAUSE it will play a big part. otherwise they wouldn't be a reason to keep her alive. in my opinion she'll either be used by vecna as a vessel or max's mind is trapped/lost in vecna's (remember 001 said all his victims are with him in his head + brenner said 001 consumes his victims, their memories and abilities) or in between dimensions since el stopped vecna before he completely consumed her (even tho she did die after, but he hasn't completed the entire process..) and could play a big part in finding out a way to defeat vecna from within.
@@hosieluv6892 Max said she was going to hide behind the light. El couldn’t find her because she was looking in the dark.
My heart isn't ready 😢
@@hosieluv6892 I'm hoping that' what happens, if they're gonna sideline Max for the entire last season it would be better to just kill her off.
As folks have likely commented elsewhere, notice how the two main people who make up Max’s happiest memories, Lucas and El, are there when she dies. Caleb’s acting got to me so hard because it externally represents what I felt internally when my mom passed away from cancer. I remember flailing on the inside not wanting her to leave me. When she died, I was shattered. Altho, it was 20 years ago, I still remember that day like it was yesterday.
For Eddie ✋🎸
I watched along with this. Cried when you guys did , cheered when you did. Urg season 5 is gunna be epic but I'm so scared of the final deaths. I was so sad Eddie had to die.
Steve will most likely die 😭
Nikki is freaking awesome lol I love watching stuff with people like her! Both of you guys keep them coming! This season was insane! I cried multiple times! Can’t wait for season 5
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
Eddie's death was sad, but the scene that got me bawling was Dustin talking to Wayne. The lip tremble, the limp as he holds out the necklace, the resignation on Wayne's face... I was sobbing.
Watching this reaction is like therapy to recover from the trauma of watching the finale. You guys are my support group.
The part that made me cry was the uncle scene finding out Eddie had died.
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
The guy that sees Erica climbing in the playground was the same guy that was at the meeting with the police officers that Jason took over. He's the one that got up at the end and said, "What are y'all waiting on. You heard him." He called and let them know where Erica was at.
I’m so pumped for season 5! What an amazing season this was! Rest in power Eddie the Brave!🤘🏽🎸
steven's reaction when nikki said she wants one of those fire guns LITERALLY ENDED ME LMAO 22:32
It made me sad how quickly everyone forgot about Eddie
For real
This should of been released in theaters!!
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
can you imagine the sobbing mess the theater would be in?
I just LOVE how everything is connected, rewatching it would be so much fun lol like noticing how things didn't connect but now they do
I started crying ever since the Jonathan and Will talk till the every end
I was blindsided by The 1, 2, 3 punch of Eddie, Max and then the hellmouth opening. I normally hate characters being resurrected but I will take whatever flimsy contrivance they can cook up to return Eddie to us.
Cool fact : Eddie's actor Joseph Quinn was playing Master of Puppets for real on set. They have him playing along to a backing track on set and they had Aidan Fisher play the close up solo we see on screen but Joe played most of it himself. Metallicas's bassist son also played additional guitar for the studio track so a lot of attention to detail went into making this scene so metal!
That scene with Caleb made me cry like a kid, he and Sadie are really amazing actors
That finale was some of the best writing I've ever seen. Epic!
What terrific acting by these young actors, what emotion they brought to the death scenes of Eddie and Max, so emotional.
Max no murió
Just for those who don’t know it was actually Eddie playing the guitar. They had no idea he could play until they started going through this scene.
I thought “Master of Puppets” was the most fitting song ever. It worked perfectly.
Tye Trujillo (Robert’s son) played the solo
Not sure if the audio was recorded by him but he can clearly actually play, was pleasantly surprised to see realistic fret-hand action on a TV show lol.
@@homedogoli they had a backing track as stated by Joe Quinn (Eddie) but all the guitar playing (shredding?) was all him!
@@ayaehab Yeah it sounds like it was him playing it in the studio as well, just not the solo.
@@homedogoli it's pretty badass nevertheless and that fact that Metallica praised him for it is a BIG deal
Absolutely loved the scene with Eddie playing Master of Puppets. 🎸 I already loved the song so it paired with the cinematography was amazing. I hope Max can recover. I wasn't fully convinced she would die but when her limbs broke and then she couldn't see, I was so sad for her. The ground breaking all around Hawkins was insane. Then Dustin's scene with Eddie's uncle was really sweet. Everything about this episode was done so well. 💕
Btw I'm with Nikki on the pineapple on pizza debate lol. 🍍🍕
Best scene in the whole series.
Eddie the legend
@@vilseck95 Agreed! 🎸🤘
He was really playing the guitar. They had no idea he could play until they got here and he wanted to play himself. So the guitar playing is actually Eddie himself
@@Shawn-rq4py Yes I've heard about that. 🙂 Makes the scene even cooler.
Metallica rarely lets their songs get used, either they got a lot of money or they really like the show.
I loved seeing how excited Steven was all the way through out this episode hahaha!
This episode has 3 of the most epic scenes in cinematic TV history:
- Eddie' solo in the Upside down!
- The Attack on Vecna!
- the realization the upside down is starting to spill over into the right side up!
The Duffer brothers over did themselves.
For real, this is one of the best season finales I've ever seen... Loved every second of it. Eddie & Max are 100% the VIPs of this season. Amazing.
The finale brought me a lot of emotions! 😭
The Duffer brothers announced that they are going to write Stranger Things 5 in August. The series will return in 2024.
I thought they was filming it already, I think I saw it somewhere. I'm probs wrong tho
@@Alex-jt8ee I believe I read they’re filming s5 now cause the cast is growing up.
@@xEluzive they are going to be 35 years old in season 5 i hate it
@@bellamyblake5702 Why do you hate it? it's so cool to see kids growing up in shows!
@@erikperhs_ no its really not
The acting from such young actors has been amazing in this series. It's been an emotional rollercoaster.
Eddie had the best heroic metal sacrifice ever! 🎸He's proud of himself at the end, and hopefully his influence on Dustin will be important for Season 5. Fantastic performances from all of the cast! Give them all the awards!
Finally a reaction that matches how fucking emotional I was during Eddie and Max's death 😭😭 I was ugly sobbing probably slightly worse than Nikki 😂
The battle attire, specifically the beret instantly made me think of two 80's flicks. Lost Boys and Red Dawn. The Frog Brothers and the Wolverines. Anyway, dope season. Can't wait for what's next.
One of the many things I love about this series is how right they got the 80s including the odes to icons and cult classics.
Ah yes I've been trying place the beret. Thank you! Steve's outfit totally reminds me of Snake Plissken.
Eta: or maybe it's McCready....
SPOILERS!
The scene when Eddie is dying in Dustin's arms hurts me deeply. I never cry in movies and shows but THIS specific scene always makes me cry. I have watched this 3 times now.
Great reaction! I love how open you both are with your emotions, comments, and facial expressions. This episode is insane with the editing, I want to add. That team definitely deserves recognition.
It's amazing how Steven always keeping it dry while Nikki sniffles her eyes out. You guys have the best reaction channel on UA-cam, greetings from the Netherlands.
What a great season, all the actors brought their A-game, and the season finale was emotionally brutal. Goodbye Eddie, you only appeared in one season, but you were one of the best and had one of the top 3 scenes of all Stranger Things.
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
I'm a 28 year old guy and I was crying like Nikki throughout this episode lol
Bro... 29. Eddie was my dad. That hit me harder than like any tv/movie death
I was sobbing so hard during this finale. This was one of the most amazing seasons of this show. Just did not want it to end
I love how Nikki stares straight ahead when Steve launches one of his ill timed, bad jokes. Lmao. Does her best to tune him out at those times
What an absolutely incredible finale to an absolutely incredible season!
I often shed a few tears during emotional scenes... but this made me downright cry and sob uncontrollably!
You’re literally the FIRST reaction that I’ve watched to Eddie, for the longest time I couldn’t hear or watch anything with that scene or I’d start crying, I got so attached to him and his character, and when I first watched the episode I cried my eyes out and I was really depressed going to bed and when I woke up hoping it was just a dream, I’m still heartbroken as hell and cry every time. The scene with him and Dustin I just can’t get over it, sad slow songs make me think about it idk why. He’s a real hero, but they shouldn’t have killed him off I’m so mad, they should of made him a man in character like robin. He can actually play the guitar and that song btw which is pretty cool. There was a video of him at some meet and greets where he was crying cause he’s realized how appreciated he is and how we love him. you notice will's nose bleeding at the end? she should of saved eddie too.
Thanks for the ride guys. I really enjoyed re-watching this show with you both.
When she started crying at the part where will and johnathan had a heart to heart I knew she was in for a rough one lol love the reactions 😊
A lot of great moments in this episode. I think my two favorites are Nancy and her Sarah Connor moment. And of course at the end when Steve has his Dad moment folding cloths while Robin talks to the girl she likes.
If you had been told when you watched the first episode of this series, that the schlubby alcoholic sheriff would sword fight an extra-dimensional monster in a gulag, and that it would be completely believable by then; could you have even imagined it?
Thanks. You guys are great and so genuine in your reactions. Keep up the excellent work!
Stuart!! Thank you very much for the super thanks and the kind words.
Max & Lucas are amazing characters, actors & couple. I still can't get over it. 😭
I got to admit I kinda got teary eyed when Eddie died but I didn't ball my eyes out. Rip Eddie! What a great finale and reaction.
Eddie’s death is still haunting me😢 and when Dustin told Eddie’s uncle not once did he ever saw Eddie get mad even at the very end… it was more profound than ever. Eddie’s too good for this world. Always be my favorite. Always
God I watched it live with y’all and watching it over again still kills me. It’s just so incredible how talented these actors are. Gaten and Joseph😭 Caleb and Sadie, man they killed it and with Caleb improvising part of that scene when he was holding Sadie just makes it a million times more sad. Breathtaking season, cannot wait for the next one and having y’all’s reactions just makes it so much better and we get to cry together lol Much love to y’all💜
This season had such strong Empire Strikes Back vibes and that final shot just confirmed that parallel
I cried my eyes out the whole episode. But Eddie's uncle really broke me!
The scenes with Eddie and Max had me tearing up like a baby 😭
The reason max’s scene hits so hard with me is because she did have really bad depression this whole season and dreamt about dying, she wanted to die. And then when faced with death head on, she was crying and begging for her life and how she’s not ready, how she didn’t wanna die. It’s so heavy and such an accurate depiction on depression it hits hard
Max's writing this whole season was probably the best character work in the series, except maybe season one Eleven. Best part of the season imo.
I actually love that this finale took a Empire Strikes Back turn, like it wasn’t afraid to not have an unhappy ending. Darth Vader won and Vecna won, Luke is back with the rebels and 11 is back with her friends. Max’s and Eddie’s deaths were probably the saddest of the whole show, even though Max is still alive kind of.
I’m so glad Sadie got her moment she gets talked over in a lot of interviews and this season she is the STAR 🌟.loved it. so sad about Eddie I loved him.💔
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS.. IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !!!!!!!
For me, one of the best season's of any series I ever seen! And your reaction was interesting, fun and entertaining, as always! Love it. RIP Eddy. Most Metal EVER! :D
Had a great time watching along the other night. Now I'll watch you more than the episode. I love reactions because they validate my feelings and make me feel not alone.
