Me when someone says something like “the duffers aren’t that smart / I don’t trust them with this story” knowing that number one they’re the ones who conceptualized the entire original idea for the thing we’ve spent months analyzing the first place + more I listen to them talk after spending months critically consuming their show…the more (not less) impressed I am they’ve been unfathomably calculated about half a million little details in this story from the start:

#maybe it’s my lenience toward film kids and filmmakers but lmao #as a storyteller and journalist myself—one with true media literacy?#they’ve had it mapped lmao #anyone who denies how calculated they’ve been about this story had zero experience with making or analyzing stories on this scale I PROMISE #that or they’re just over emotional ☠️#this is one of the few moments I’m glad I’m (relatively) older and less emptional #it’s easier to see how intentional they are without anger it didn’t go how I would do it lol #duffer brothers #my st commentary #stranger things
