      That poor girl was in a rush to grow up, makes me wonder about her home situation that she wanted out. She was looking 40 as soon as she hit 18 and I believe had a guy lined up already

        They adopted a baby, so she also kind of pulled a pregnancy speed run. Maybe if you were a child star, you’d want to make yourself an “adult” as soon as possible?

      I’m wondering if they’re going to bust out some CGI to de-age the actors, or if they’re going to just roll with it

    It completely baffles me they didn’t just skip ahead a few years last season. The noticeable difference between the ages of the actors and the ages of their characters made it hard to take it seriously

    My favorite part of Stranger Things was when Matthew Modine had to sit down with Eleven and explain to her why he’d be carrying a watch up his ass for 7 years.

    I find it funny that the kid that got super big, Finn whatever, i think he’s the one with the most wooden look and worst acting than any of the other kids. From the first season i thought he was awful but I guess that’s subjective. But there’s no way he or any of the other kids are normal anymore, they’ve been consumed by Hollywood now. The girl who plays Eleven looks like she’s 50 now

      I specifically reminded her - bedside table! On the Kangaroo! I said the words, “Don’t forget my father’s watch!”

    Eleven’s transition was beautiful and more shows should explore how friend groups can support trans comrades
