A few years ago, I would have really liked aStranger Thingsmovie.
These days, my appetite for things that are stranger has cooled.
Certainly, I don’t want eight Stranger Things movies.
And yet, that’s what I’m getting.
To be blunt, this is too many.
Now, those characters aren’t children, and the core is hollow.
Barack Obama was the President when Stranger Things arrived on TV.
Riverdale and The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina had not yet aired.
It was six months beforeStar Wars: Rogue Onehit cinemas.
Timothee Chalamet had never had a lead role.
And to date, they have done four seasons.
I loved Stranger Things, and now I don’t care.
This is the biggest casualty of the show taking so long.
The biggest problem is I simply don’t care.
This is not just about me.
Remember when Red One got more viewers thanAvengers: Endgame?
If I wanted to watch a movie, I would watch a movie.
Movies are what Netflix (flicks over the ‘net, and originally called Love Film) is built on.
This does not feel in the show’s, nor the viewers’, best interest.
As far as the fans go, they don’t want all sugar rush all the time.
They might think they do, but a banana split doesn’t work without the banana.
