Stranger Things on Netflix

 

They captured the eighties kiddy adventure flick feel so perfectly I am struggling to believe this isn't 1987.

 

First episode even has a Toto song!

I really liked this. Even though Winona Ryder horribly overacts in it, the rest of it is great. The opening sequence gave me chills. I watched the 8 episodes over 2 nights and was very impressed. They do do a great job making it look like the 80's and the kids are very good in it.

Wow, really? I thought she was horrible. Cringe-worthy even.

I'm on episode three. I might change my mind. But I find her wholly believable.

 

In fact I'd go as far as to say she has made it back onto my list of favourite actresses.

:LOL: That's so funny because to me it's one of the worst acting jobs I've seen from anyone in a long time. I did like the show otherwise very much but every time she came on screen I kind of cringed.

I know I will watch this show again. Perhaps I will see what you are going on about eventually but I find everything about her character believable. She plays a real mess of a woman in many ways, and also a lot of eighties movies had serious overacting. I am not going to lie, if this is the case with Winona, her performance may be one of the reasons I truly believe this is vintage 80's television!

 

This is everything I expected Super 8 to be.

Bad acting in 80's tv? That could be said even today.

A different kind of bad...there is a certain stilted kind of bad acting that I don't see often anymore.

 

Again I loved her performance so not jumping on that bandwagon haha!

Finished Stranger Things.

 

The best season of television I have watched in years. In fact this could be my favourite TV show ever! If season 2 emerges and turns out to be woeful, I will always have this first season.

 

Reminded me so much of the 80's sci-fi adventure movies, and the younger cast reminded me strongly of Stand By Me. The adult cast was perfect, I don't care what anyone says...

 

In fact everything about this show hit all the right notes for me. I haven't a thing to complain about.

I still have three episodes left to watch but I'm really enjoying Stranger Things. Certainly worth a watch even if you aren't nostalgic about everything from the 80s like I am.

 

I loved it! I've been very ill lately and it's been a big distraction (amongst other wonderful things in my life).
