Today, let's talk about the American drama "Stranger Things Season 2".
The title is Stranger Things Season 2 (2017).
The second season of Stranger Things returns after a year, and the show's timeline also takes place a year after the first season ended.
Will, who escaped from the dead in another world, became the key to promoting the development of the plot. He opened the eyes of the sky and could see the scene of two worlds at the same time. After Demogorgon was destroyed, more monsters wanted to invade through the portal. And so a battle of life and death began.
The whole second season continues the advantages of the first season, the core is the pure friendship between children, supplemented by a large number of film and television works that pay tribute to the 1980s.
The audience will be moved by the innocent performances and sincere feelings of the little actors when they follow the children on their adventures.
The overall feeling of this season is that it continues the advantages of the previous season, and the true feelings and tribute to play stalks maintain the original intention. The biggest change lies in the development of the plot.
Back on August 22, 2017, the show's directors, Matt Duffer and Ross Duffer, told Vulture magazine that before the much-anticipated second season premiered on October 27, the series' The show has been renewed for a third season.
Netflix has also said that it plans to renew the show for a fourth season, and Netflix's attitude is that it thinks it will be a four-season story, and then it's over.
The tribute element is the highlight and highlight of the play.
Let's continue to talk about the tribute stalks in this season. Only by understanding the background of the super stalks can you fully appreciate the essence of the show.
1. In episode 1, Dustin stated that the arcade game Dragon's Lair (1983) was "overpriced".
Because "Dragon's Den" was the first arcade game to charge $0.50 or even $1 per game, the previous arcade standard was $0.25.
In addition, both Dustin and Lucas rescued Princess Daphne in "Dragon's Den", with Lucas winning in the end. This also foreshadows the sequel to this season, where the two compete for Max's affection, and Lucas wins in the end.
2. When Max first appeared, she flipped her skateboard as a tribute to Back to the Future Part II (1989).
3. This season's new character, Dacre Montgomery, lost his six-pack to play Billy.
His reasoning is that he had already shown excessive abs in his previous work "Power Rangers" (2017), and people in the 80s were not too focused on shaping, so he wanted to show a less perfect , and he felt it was the best look for the character.
4. Dr. Owens asks Will what his favorite Halloween candy is, and Will replies: "Reese's Pieces."
Because Reese's is also the most popular candy in ET the Extra-Terrestrial (1982).
5. In episode 2, Bob Newby dressed up as a vampire while dancing with Joyce Byers.
Because the actor Winona Ryder has starred in the vampire theme film "Four Hundred Years" (Dracula, 1992).
6. Steve and Nancy dressed as Tom Cruise and Rebecca de Monet in Risky Business (1983).
7. When Jim Hopper didn't make it home in time, he used Morse code to message Little 11 that he was late.
The first word Hopper said was "Sorry".
8. In an interview, Millie Bobby Brown said that she liked the scene in the cabin with David Harbour, but she also said that the one-person scene was just too boring.
Xiao 11 was forced to be locked in the hut and could not see anyone, but she really wanted to see Mike and other friends.
On Halloween, Xiao 11 dressed up as a ghost so that no one would see it when he went out. This episode pays homage to "ET Alien".
The four Mike dressed up as "Ghostbusters" (Ghostbusters, 1984), which corresponds to the choice of Xiao 11.
9. Mike persistently contacted Little 11 for 353 days and wanted to know about Little 11's condition.
The little easter egg here is, 3+5+3=11.
10. In episode 5, Bob mentioned many geographic locations around Hawkins town, such as Jordan Lake, Eno River, which are real locations in North Carolina.
Because these are the places where the Duff brothers, the director of the show, grew up.
11. Before solving the puzzle, Bob jokes "What is Number X? Pirate treasure?" This is a tribute to The Goonies (1985).
The film is about abandoned children searching for pirate treasure through treasure maps. Sean Astin, who played Bob, played Mickey in the film.
12. Bob has a line that says, "That's why they call me 'The Brain.'" This refers to Bobby "The Brain" Heenan.
Heenan was a popular pro wrestling coach in the '80s, considered by many to be the greatest figure in professional wrestling history.
13. Bob, Joyce, and others rescued Hopper from the tunnel. Hopper did not forget his hat when he left and grabbed it.
This is a tribute to Raiders of the Lost Ark 2, because Jones never forgets his hat and never throws it away.
14. On the wall of Jane's bedroom is a painting of the White Rabbit from "Alice in Wonderland".
Alice, like Jane, can wander into another world.
15. In episode 6, the motion detector made the same sound as it did in Alien.
16. In Murray's house, Nancy and Jonathan sleep in separate spots, and we see scenes of them in their respective rooms, muttering to themselves, trying to relieve tension.
This is an homage to Raiders of the Lost Ark 2, and Jones and Willie Scott did the same.
Nancy's room also has two doors, just like Willie's. Each of them came out of their room and found another door there.
17. Joyce yelled at the doctor that no one could tell what was wrong with Will. This shot is a tribute to The Exorcist (1973).
Ellen Burstein in "The Exorcist" scolded doctors for not knowing what was wrong with her daughter Regan.
18. The commando captain said "Keep calm, boys", and the radar tracking device monitored the movement of the soldiers, all tribute to "ET Alien".
And in both works, the assault squad was ambushed and massacred.
19. Steve, Dustin and Mike used steel mesh iron plates to reinforce the bus when they designed the traps in the junkyard.
This tribute is "Mad Max 2" (Mad Max 2, 198).
20. The plot of episode 7 is separate from the main line, mainly enriching the background stories of the characters, and not much related to the main plot.
Therefore, this episode is also the lowest rated episode of the series.
21. In Little 11's room, a neon sign with the words "spiritual advisor" can be clearly seen in the background. And this neon light is broken, only part of the characters can be lit.
If you map the image of the spiritual mentor to the small 8, you will find clues. When Xiao 8 instructed Xiao 11 to move the train, he gave effective advice; but when he instructed Xiao 11 to kill, he could not persuade Xiao 11. Therefore, her spiritual teacher has only partial aura.
22. In Hinduism, Kali, also known as the name of the little 8 character, is the god of destruction and evil who occasionally does good. When Xiao 11 and Xiao 8 first met, there was a blue figure behind Xiao 8, and the painting was Kali, the god of destruction.
23. The title of episode 8, The Mind Flayer, refers to a very powerful monster.
From the same mythology as Cthulhu, spirit-suckers have tentacles on their faces and feed on the minds of their victims.
Bob writes a BASIC program that exhausts four-digit passwords to crack passwords
24. Bob's character was doomed from the start.
The original plan was for Bob to be killed by the evil Will around episode 3, but they loved working with actor Sean Astin so much that they kept him alive for so long.
Sean Astin said he doesn't care when the character dies, but it has to be a heroic death.
25. In the final scene of the episode, the characters find themselves trapped inside the house, with Demo-dogs approaching outside. There is a strange sound at this time, indicating that other people or things have arrived. Then suddenly the door is opened, and Little 11, who is thought to be dead by these characters, appears.
This one pays homage to Alien: Resurrection (1997), also in which a group of people are trapped in an elevator shaft and threatened by aliens. Suddenly the alarm bell rang, and it was Kaur, who was thought to be dead, who opened the door.
26. In episode 9, a funeral was finally held for Barbara.
Fans have long been unhappy with Barbara's death in season one, leading to petitions like #JusticeForBarb and #WeAreAllBarb. So the producers addressed the character's disappearance in season two.
27. When Dustin entered the winter dance, Mike said to him, "Holy shit, what happened to you?"
It's a tribute to "It (2017)," in which Richie says the same thing when he sees a wounded Ben Hanscom.
28. Lucas and Max finally kiss. However, because the reaction of Max being kissed could not always be captured, this scene was repeated many times.
Can't help but wonder if Lucas deliberately didn't let people take pictures...
29. At the Winter Ball, Eleven wore a blue bracelet. This bracelet appeared in the first season, when Hopper was telling a story to his daughter on the sickbed, and it was this blue bracelet on his hand.
30. This is the second time Xiao 11 has kissed Mike.
At the end of last season, the two kissed for the first time, also Millie Bobby Brown's first kiss.
Millie Bobby Brown said in an interview that she suggested kissing between characters, and Finn Wolfhard was nervous before the kiss, saying "I'm coming" without moving.
