‘Dungeons & Dragons’ isn’t just for the ‘Stranger Things’ kids — it’s for you, too

sudshr47 November 7, 2017

This is a story about a dwarf barbarian with a beard to die for. Literally, he’s killed people over it. His name is Thorbjork and he is my Dungeons and Dragons character who almost never existed.

For those of you unfamiliar with the game Dungeons and Dragons, (D&D for short) allow me to elucidate. It is what is called a tabletop role-playing game. Basically you and your friends sit around telling a story where you each play as a character, except for the almighty Dungeon Master, who acts as the narrator of the story, describing the people you meet and the places you go. You tell the Dungeon Master (DM) what you want to do, and then use dice throws to determine whether those actions are successful. Read more…

‘Stranger Things’ Barb defends Finn Wolfhard with a few, very real tweets

sudshr47 November 5, 2017

Justice for Barb was so 2016—now, it’s all about justice from Barb.

Stranger Things actress Shannon Purser (who played Season 1’s Barb, the breakout character with a cult-like following) came to the defense of co-star Finn Wolfhard on Saturday afternoon after fans of Wolfhard circulated a video of themselves waiting outside the 14-year-old’s hotel.

Wolfhard did not stop to say hi to the Stranger Things stans when he entered and exited the hotel, which resulted in them tweeting about how he was “heartless.” Purser jumped straight to his defense in a Twitter thread, rationalizing his actions by sharing her own experiences and delivering some piping hot knowledge to his fans.

What was the deal with Mike Wheeler in ‘Stranger Things 2’?

sudshr47 November 2, 2017

In the grand tradition of sequels everywhere, Stranger Things 2 had more of everything – more demogorgons, more Will, more Steve being a good guy, more Hopper being Hotper (I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I knew as soon as I said it).

The one exception? Mike Wheeler.

In Season 1, Mike wasn’t just part of the gang – he was the guy, around whom much of the action revolved. He was the dungeon master and ringleader; he was Eleven’s closest friend and ally; he was brother of Nancy, another key character.

This season, though, Mike takes a significant step back. He’s still there, but his position in the story is much less prominent. He doesn’t even really get a plotline to call his own. He’s a supporting player in Will’s storyline and a distant motivating force in Eleven’s. Read more…

80s Easter Egg Netflix Spoilers Stranger Things

All the ’80s references you might’ve missed in ‘Stranger Things 2’

sudshr47 November 1, 2017

Warning: This post contains spoilers for Stranger Things 2.

It was the 1980s – you kinda had to be there. But thanks to a deep reservoir of references and Easter eggs in the second season of Stranger Things, it’s almost like you were.

Since its first season, Netflix’s spooky series has taken a healthy dose of John Carpenter-style horror (channeling the atmospheric, synth-scored vibes of films like The Thing, The Fog and Starman), added a hearty dollop of Spielbergian, suburban kid adventure (notably E.T.: The Extra Terrestrial, Poltergeist and The Goonies) and blended it all with the era’s key pop cultural touchstones in gaming, music and fashion. The resulting ’80s flavor never overwhelms the main course of story and character, but makes the meal even tastier. Read more…
