Is this suitable for kids(ages 11-14) ?
It has a bit of swearing and is a bit scary (would be for 11-14 year old's I presume) but other than that it's fine.Is this suitable for kids(ages 11-14) ?
thanks.It has a bit of swearing and is a bit scary (would be for 11-14 year old's I presume) but other than that it's fine.
Surprising...Been watching it, finished episode 3 last night and really enjoying it. Love the music and the whole 80s vibe and definitely reminds me of ET. I f*cking hate the black kid though.
He might've been the weakest casting aside from Wynona. But if they replace that toothless kid, I'm not bothered about season two.Been watching it, finished episode 3 last night and really enjoying it.

I'm rewatching it with my gf and I'd say the black kid is a good actor. I feel like he delivers his lines and irritation regarding Eleven in a believable way. I must admit I don't know much about acting but I thought he's just as good as the other kids.He might've been the weakest casting aside from Wynona.

See I'm the opposite. I think he's terrible and the lines he's been given don't help him.I'm rewatching it with my gf and I'd say the black kid is a good actor.

Yes, there will beGreat show, I am in 1x06. Do you know if there will be second season? Could be like True detective? I mean, the same genre but a different story?

Yeah, I don't think he's bad at all, and I usually pick up on crappily delivered stuff.I'm rewatching it with my gf and I'd say the black kid is a good actor.

So many scenes felt like theyd been taken straight out of another film.Loving it so far. How many films does this remind you of? ET (torches in the woods), Poltetgeist, The Thing, all those teen movies like Pretty in Pink, Stand By Me etc etc
Think that's kinda the point. Has a feel of nostalgia.So many scenes felt like theyd been taken straight out of another film.
It's nostalgic, plot driven, focused, well acted, good music, creates tensions and suspense while giving answers progressively.What's so good about this? I'm planning on watching it when I come back from vacation.
Agree.I think it's somehow a breath of fresh air whilst also being a cool throwback. Both modern and nostalgic.
for me too.Toothless (Dustin) is clearly the winner in all this.
What?Terrible acting and dodgy script aside, great show.
Which sounds ridiculous, I know, but it's true.
I kow what you mean, i didnt like him too. But Toothless explained it good for me i guess, the black kid was just jealous.Honestly f*** the black kid. What an annoying character, he somehow managed to be more annoying than the bullies & the jocks
Toothless, what a guy.I kow what you mean, i didnt like him too. But Toothless explained it good for me i guess, the black kid was just jealous.
It's quite easy - we are not annoyed at the bad guys, we are mostly annoyed at the characters whose motivation isn't clear to us (although the jealousy explains his behaviour pretty well), like Walter White's wife, for example. Bullies are bullies, we know what they want and they don't do illogical things.he somehow managed to be more annoying than the bullies & the jocks
Yeah that makes sense, and the jealousy thing does match up also. I just can't wrap my head around how he offered almost nothing except complaining about El.It's quite easy - we are not annoyed at the bad guys, we are mostly annoyed at the characters whose motivation isn't clear to us (although the jealousy explains his behaviour pretty well), like Walter White's wife, for example.

Ah, it's all just pretty bad, but I guess they're mainly kids at the end of the day.What?
I think the acting varies from decent to exceptional all round, and the script plays it's part in that nostalgic feel. What is it you don't like about these?
Some are born leaders, some are born fighters and some are born bitches. What I liked about Lucas was that he wasn't just the stereotypical big black bully kid who either gets defeated by the white kids or dies. Alright he was a bit of a bit bitch, but girls drive boys crazy yo!Yeah that makes sense, and the jealousy thing does match up also.

That's one thing I like about him, they didn't have him be a stereotype he was just as annoying as any other normal kid.Some are born leaders, some are born fighters and some are born bitches.

Alright he was a bit of a bit bitch, but girls drive boys crazy yo!
I strongly recommend that you atleast give it a 1-2 ep trial. I have yet to meet anyone who's seen it and not loved it.Some guy said today that I should watch this as it is like The Goonies or ET.
I have never seen those and always imagined they were shite, so I doubt I'll watch it.
