Justin Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 SPOILER WARNING: This is a discussion on the entire second season of Stranger Things. It may contain spoilers for the series from its inception through the end of Stranger Things 2. Please be courteous when posting to include spoiler warnings when necessary. Stranger Things 2 A General Discussion about the 2nd Season Season 1 Discussion begins here: http://forums.atari.io/index.php/topic/2276-stranger-things-chapter-one-the-vanishing-of-will-byers/page-1 Stranger Things 2 just dropped on Netflix and it's going to be a wild ride! Last year we posted episode-by-episode recaps of the show and dove into the deep end with lengthy discussions. For Stranger Things 2 I think it will be fine to keep the discussion to one thread so long as we're all mindful about spoilers. Who here will be watching Stranger Things 2?

Sabertooth Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 We have guests this weekend but I can't wait to watch it. We all really enjoyed it last year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 Does anyone know how many episodes there are in season 2? I think one of the big allures of season 1 was that it was only 8 episodes. Like NFL football games...every one counted. Plus it wasn't a huge time commitment. It really felt like an extended movie with no fluff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 Looks like 9 episodes in season 2. PERFECT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabertooth Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 It turns out that our house guests are fans too! We watched the first episode "MADMAX" after dinner. There are some really great 80s arcade scenes. There was also an Atari mention. RickR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 It was great. But do games like Dig Dug allow 6 character high scores? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickR Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 We're 2 in. It's like the climb hill on a roller coaster.....I have a feeling it's going to take off soon. StormSurge 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjustin6 Posted November 2, 2017 Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 I couldn't help myself and i just finished watching them all. Great freaking show!! I have to say my favorite part was the opening scene into the arcade. Man when does 3 come out!? Sabertooth and StormSurge 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabertooth Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 We finished this week. The consensus at our house is that it was a fine addition to the series. I really hate Billy though. Not sure why they needed to add another bad ass high school kid. Maybe as a foil for Steve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 Episode 4 here. Loving it so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaximumRD Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 Looking forward to starting it soon, got all the episodes on a stick to play on our smart TV. A few weeks back our relatives visited and left us with a new SHARP 43' 4K TV. Though it was really unexpected I gotta admit even watching YouTube on this thing has been cool.

I have the Xbox One S, which will play 4k Blu Rays & Netflix, but the next challenge would be trying not to upgrade to the Xbox One X & gaming in 4 K.

Mcorleonep Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Finished this a couple days ago (kind of late) as I was busy with Super Mario Odyssey. A worthy season but binge watching these shows feels ridiculous since it will be another year for another few 'lost' hours. Binging through all of Game of Thrones a couple months ago was even more painful... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 I'm an old fart I guess. I can only watch 1 or 2 in a sitting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormSurge Posted November 8, 2017 Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 I'm trying to savor it as best I can. We have two left. It's definitely worth a rewatch though, along with S1. I'll save that for the spring or summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 Finished it a few days ago. It was excellent! Great show. StormSurge and Sabertooth 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormSurge Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Yes, I’m all done as well. Excellent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Spoiler alert! I think the most creepy part for me was the awful bathtub/doorbell scene in the final episode. YUCK! StormSurge 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
