so whatever came of the demogorgan that was put in the freezer?The episode where they thought they were about to get wrecked by the demogorgans and eleven shows up like a beast had me like
I thought there was no way this show could live up to the first season. Wow was I wrong!!! Season two was even better. I'm just mad it's over. Great show!
Which made it even better when Steve of all people was the guy that came fon lucas’s defense. That was a well earned moment. Also to have Lucas try to fight dude by kicking him in the nuts.
That’s probably taken by the government for study.
I wonder if next season is going to focus on this secret government project. There is still so much story out there... just for the government people. Like are their other children like Eleven and old girl. Was the facility in Hawkins the only facility out there?
I mean there is at least 3 more seasons of material.
Yeah that part where Eleven was holding Hopper’s hands when she saw what she was going into... that part almost got me. That part and the dance...
I got a ton of books on my "to read" list. Guess I need to add one more
season 3...
We already know Dustin and Lucas is going to be tested next season. First season it was three and one...this season it was two and two...next season it might be one and one and two ( or one and one). We are going to see these four boys grow up for real through this show. Their dynamics, their love, their friendship...all of it. What I do like is that race was never a thing between the four them, (except for Winston), but Lucas is already the only one that fights. Wrist Rocket? No one else is a defender...except for Steve. Lucas is a fighter, and that is going to play out I think.
And that bit about the step daddy being a real villain? Why I get the notion that he might beat Max momma...maybe he might get 'possessed' by the mind-flayer next season...
...which brings me to another thing. The physical manifestation seems to be stuck in the Upside Down - we saw it when El closed the gate. But - this ethereal version that was expelled from Will's body, where did it go? It wasn't the physical being? Was it? Is it still in the Rightside Up? I wonder why it didn't try to jump into Nancy when she was outside - it would have been prime because she wasn't in the hot house. Does there have to be a connection to the Upside Down for the flayer to inhabit or is there something else going on that the Duffer's have planned?
That is a very good point about the manifestation that came out of Wil. I had just assumed that is back behind the wall when Eleven closed it but ... that could just be the upside down version. He could still be out there and he would need a host.
Him... man I can’t wait for Season 3.
Alright
Had to show how they grew and the aftermath
Lucas and 11 are the only ones bout it out of the crew. Will too but Will been thru too much. Way too much. kidnapped, then possessed and all this other shit like its been a tough year for that kid. He gets the ultimate pass.
Like the introduction of Max to the team there's room for 2 girls and 11 will get over her being there once she sees her and Lucas boo'd up.
Hopper is her father now he tries so hard glad it turned out OK.
Bob is a superhero
So there's 11 and there's 8 so how many more survived?
the friendship really got tested at several points it was downright fractured most of the season but they still could depend on each other
they're all def going to grow apart in the coming seasons you can see the wedges
It's not going to be because of anything malicious either

The Development of Dustin and Lucas
When you have Will possessed by a demon and his best friend Mike helping out, it’s kind of easy for Lucas and Dustin to get overlooked. But in Stranger Things 2, they each play an expanded, worthwhile role. First is Lucas, who is falling for the new character Max and thereby bringing in more people to help them defeat the town’s evil. We finally get to meet his parents too, as well as his sister, who is so good she better play a larger role in the coming seasons.
Meanwhile, Dustin is also falling for Max, and finds a new pet named Dart, a little creature that turns out to be a baby Demogorgon. Now, granted, that whole storyline feels a little forced and him lying to his friends about Dart isn’t exactly in character. But it gives Dustin some much needed responsibility and drive throughout the season.
So take those two characters, put them together, and it just works. They’re rivals but also friends. They’re on the sidelines, but make themselves indispensable. They should be feuding, but they work it out. They take two roles that could have been nothing and make them into something the audiences loves to watch.
We Didn’t Love...
Max and Billy
Max and Billy (Sadie Sink and Dacre Montgomery) are two other new characters in Stranger Things 2. The step-siblings are new in Hawkins and they’re both introduced for very specific purposes: Max is there to add some much needed girl power to their group and to give Dustin and Lucas something to talk about. Billy is the only human bad guy, even though he’s basically only bad to Lucas and Steve.
Of the two, Max is obviously better. Sink creates a strong character who is very much independent and a worthy foil, it’s just that the season doesn’t give her much to do. She’s the new girl Lucas and Dustin like, but she doesn’t really believe what’s going on until half way through the season. Max is cool, but she’s a bit of a letdown.
Billy, however, just kind of stinks. He basically serves no purpose on the show except to make things hard for Max and some secondary characters, sometimes. This is Stranger Things, for crying out loud. If you’re a character on Stranger Things that doesn’t get to encounter any stranger things, did you really Stranger Things? I don’t think so.

Should of just said Billy,because Max was more productive than her step-brother.
I thought that’s was pretty clear. They were conducting mk ultra experiments in Hawkings lab and the kids ended up with powers.
Everything is happening because 11/El/Jane accidentally tore a hole in space time to a alternate universe, or opened a gate to the upside down.
So the experiments CAUSED the powers
i was thinking they found kids that already had powers and were experimenting on them
There is definitely more story to be told about the experiments. With the introduction of 008 and El’s mother potentially having similar, but weaker, powers there is a lot there.
My theory is that the parents were experimented on, ended up with powers and passed them on to the kids.
I’m actually hoping for a spin off for that and they keep stranger things about the kids/Hawkings.
Can someone make a gif of the end of episode 5 where Will was on the ground shaking. That face he was making.

Thought Billy looked familiar..he was the Red Power Ranger in the wack reboot movie
Just finished great season. Cant wait to see what that ending was about.
Yeah I really liked Max.... She played the outside perspective.
Yeah... Originally they were trying to find a way to Spy on the Russians. That was one of the original reasons.....
The story relied on concepts from Hilter's Occult shit. There were Rumors that Hilter was trying to incorporate Occult research into his shit and one of the ideas were Psychic Soldiers.

Great season. I truly love this show and the cast.
I like that Billy's racism wasn't specifically mentioned but it was implied. The show didn't need to go there because its a homage to the 80's but what if there was more diversity added. Glad Will got a chance to be featured more, him and Hopper are my favorite actors on the show. Lucas' sister is a star in the making, she stole every scene she was in. Funny the creators said she was only supposed to have a small part but she was so good that they expanded her role. Hopefully she gets more screen time in season 3.
* side note this show was so good the only time I stopped it was to see how many episodes were left cuz i felt things coming to a close. I instantly felt that bittersweet moment i felt during season 1. Where I enjoyed it so much but was sad there wasn't any more episodes.*

It was dead.
The kids already had the powers. Their parents were already powered as well. 11's mother is psycho-kinetic
I see why the dude that plays Turk on the Marvel shows shaves his head.
