Yes this looks interesting. I'll check it out whenever I get NetFlix again...

But what does this have to do with the truth behind Will Smith's arrest? The world needs to know

 

Edit: Anyone else couldn't access the site for like 15 minutes? Also Nvm I could swear I clicked a link here for a Will Smith video

I know I'm probably the only one in the world, but Stranger Things is not a good show. Never understood all the praise that show is getting. Its cool that it got an 80s feeling, but it also comes with the 80 clichés.

As it should.

Great for people who dont mind, but I just hate some of it. Kids 10 times smarter than the adults, one person seeing stuff and nobody believes them for a long time, the high school drama etc...ugh.

oh yeah? cause 80's bad cliches included bad acting by bad child actors and bad stories without depth, and black kids dying quick, and a douchebag boyfriend being douchebag and one dimensional monsters and lore without any meaning etc etc, and I don't see nothing like that here. Sorry but stranger things is not bad at all, it's like the perfect mix of stephen king and spielberg. This is the good side of the 80's with great twists.

And I'm too picky with my movies and series. I'm very happy that a good series is mainstream, I'm tired of the walking dead shit with the same story in every season.

First few episodes were really good, they got that Goonies/ET meets sort of Black Mesa feel to them...but later it really got silly with the teenage kids doing moronic stuff...plus the monster plot turned out to be really crappy, in addition to monster being bad CGI

It has the boyfriend being a doucebag. It also has the creepy teen turning out to be the good guy...and lets not forget the big evil corporation filled with evil people who do evil things...for some reason.

Isnt it normal that kids do moronic kid stuff? I actually liked it. I felt the kids were more real than in most series were their lines of dialogue are clearly "adult-like".
