because i can be delusional one last time, here are all the inconsistencies i’ve gathered so far that makes me believe that either the finale didn’t happen or was a vision or it was a tragic ending:
mike ending up like ted. even the same hairstyle.
robin suddenly dressing in frills and has long hair
rovickie break up out of nowhere when last we saw robin was promising to take her on a date
el saying goodbye to mike in her mind when the sirens were blaring and she shouldn’t have been able to do that
the voltage dial turning from grey to red
the coming out scene dialogue inconsistencies
mike being unable to tell el i love you even though that was his plot for the entirety of st4
el saying mike understands her better than anyone else when el says the opposite in st4 and her love for max is what makes her more powerful than she’s ever been
the mind flayer and vecna defeat being very underwhelming
max at the dnd game crashing out about how the campaign doesn’t make sense the way we’re crashing out.
all the wsqk clues not adding up
duffers said we’ll know who opened the byers door bolt in ep1. the show still hasn’t told us
why was will framed as the exotic matter in the bridge episode drawing with an x over his heart?
why was the painting not addressed when it was wills entire st4 plot?
mike and wills eternal sunshine outfit inspirations when it led to absolutely nothing
max graduating with the boys when she’s missed a year of school
WHAT was vecna’s plan exactly? what would merging worlds do? what would it look like?
where were the demos both in the upside down and the abyss?
what about birthdaygate? why do henry and will share birthdays?
why do joyce and hopper never mention knowing henry?
what was the point of the “snowballs to avalanche” conversation?
why did will go from hopeful to giving mike up in a day?
why do the military let them go? and why is there a memorial with eddie’s name on it (as seen in BTS)?
why wouldn’t mike touch will even before the coming out? and more so after?
is mike grieving el the emotional weight of the finale? because it didn’t move me. in fact it pissed me off that he couldn’t say he loved her even then.
the duffers equating el to her powers in an interview saying she had to die. when millie herself said el’s st5 arc was realising she’s more human and less superhero.
if i’m missing something, feel free to reply and i’ll add it in edits
