question. in El's birth memory she sees Brenner's and Terry's faces but before that, the very first thing that comes momentarily into sorta-focus is... what is this?
here's the clearest frame:
since there's direct light/shadow this has to be "outside" but I can't recognize it
#i’d say it’s someone’s palms in white gloves? like a doctor birthing the baby/supporting the head#like it looks like the heels of their palms to me but i could be wrong#<- prev tags#I'll go with that because I definitely can't think of anything that fits better#my brain still isn't getting the orientation of the hands but the gloves in both scenes are white so it def works#ok wait now this just made me itch tho because of the way Terry's birth pov shots are upside down#so if they're that literal with the povs. does the hand placement make sense for baby's realistic POV#update: just looked it up and apparently baby is ideally supposed to come out facing down#p sure literally every movie birth I've ever seen has had baby facing up

#it's not terrrribly dissimilar to the actual baby seen in the c section memory but that's not it#either I'm just missing it or this is something thatll suddenly make sense in s5 probably to my horror

this just proves to me that the rest of st tumblr is about 1 year behind the unholycule when it comes to analysis
#fully catching up on all unholycule analysis is an insurmountable backlog so I just assume that any realization I have#there's actually already an em/james post dated 2022 about it somewhere that tumblr search just isnt showing me lmao

stranger faves screenshot game
need to know who's been your single favorite character at any given point in Stranger Things using screenshots of the exact moment that person first became your fave.
this is not a ranking or a top list! this is for your #1 spot only and who it has belonged to over the years. start with whoever first stood out from the ensemble to you and add a new pic every time someone surpassed them as your new favorite. last pic is your current fave.
I probably already know who your faves are but I wanna know what exact frame of film did it for you.
mine: Joyce lying to Karen. I felt that in my bones -> baby Eleven becomes my legal daughter. hello 911 I'm having chest pains from needing to hug a fictional character -> Max lies to her counselor. hey I identify with this character more suddenly, good things must be coming her way this season!
(tagging some friends but if you see this you're invited) @bananananurr @elmaxjunkie @heroesbyler @aemiron-main @elevenmayfieldz @fantasticdragonglitter @reikunrei @gshepgf @rogueddie @sacchrineskies @henrysglock
#just found out my type is: wlw (women lying to women)#stranger faves#if you don't read the instructions and just put a random screenshot chosen for aesthetics I'll bite you#joyce was my initial fave anyway just because I only checked out the show for winona & she was the only actor I knew#but that first lie ladies and germs. it got me#baby el: kills two men and cries me: (brenner voice) well well. it looks like we have a new winner.#this doesn't have to be a tag game I'm just doing that to get this off the ground

oh you mean like
Nancy seeing Vecna's backstory but not hearing the monologue/having no emotional context
El hearing the monologue but having no visual reference/context
The gang reading the papers but having no audio/visual context
yeah ok

Oh look it took them 2 years but they’re figuring it out!!
But will they have enough time to figure out byler endgame too before s5 comes out… ?
#vickie's pbpb sandwich will always remind me of one of my earliest acts of recreational media analysis#about the guy in jurassic park tying two female ends of his seatbelt together because life finds a way even though the dinos are all female#that might be too much of a reach for reddit

big, terrible post about lab csa subtext coming up soon, so here's ample warning that if you plan to reply anything stupid like "I just don't think they'd go there" (they textually already have) or "I disagree that that counts as sa" (it's the legal definition of it) that will be your last interaction with my blog
#csa tw#sa tw#with the way I've seen some of my friends get treated in response to addressing this stuff on here before I know I apparently need#to be ready for responses ranging from ignorant to hostile

"why can't they just be friends" not in the homophobic way but in the "their platonic relationship in the source material is far more dynamic and complex than the sanitized personalities they gain as a result of shipping" way

soo. you're saying the massacre is mostly just the s1 demogorgon finale shoved in a blender?
ok I need to break this chunk off my other analysis because it's getting long and creeping off topic, so I will definitely be addressing more aspects of this in my coming-soon portals post but.
like okay the demogorgon/One banishings were an obvious parallel since the second we saw it, but I never realized how many similarities there are throughout the whole finale especially when you include the flashback part:
I hope my editing is mostly self explanatory but some notes -
El walking down a dark hallway with particles floating towards her towards a glowing red exit hole = visually similar to El's trip down the birth canal [so specifically the 4x7 massacre version with the vaginal birth memory]
El turning around with the crack in the chalkboard behind her = El turning around with the crack in the RR wall behind her [so specifically the 4x1 version of this shot because that's the one with the gate]'
the party taking El into the classroom = Brenner being in the test room for lessons with Ten when the massacre starts [this being a Brenner-only scene sorta rules out this being purely based on organic memories of El's? unless El = Ten]
at the end of the school part, El is "born" into a stark white school hallway that, even upon a s2-era watch, seemed a bit labby. but post-4 we can really appreciate this set design... horizontal stripes wrapping the walls and a corresponding pattern in the floor tiles? blood smeared all along the floor like somebody got dragged? El, covered in a nasty substance, falling perfectly centered onto the floor pattern after "experiencing" her own birth? that's pure Rainbow Room, baby.
I'm not trying to construct a narrative with that video, I'm just matching shots that reminded me of other shots, so its parallels are all out of order and roles switch around (but then, ditto the actual massacre).
had to kinda shoehorn in El getting dragged because we don't see how those blood trails happen in s1 but you'll forgive me. (someone else getting dragged through blood here vs us seeing El get dragged in the massacre smth smth multiple els in the massacre)
also.. where are the bodies?... disappearing/moving massacre bodies... MPs wouldn't drag their dead down the hall, they'd pick them up. so the demogorgon dragged them? creature massacre theory save me
there of course are a lot more things in NINA that could be other remixed memories besides the s1 finale, but I'll expand that into another video later.
anyways. losing my mind 👍

have we talked about how El's scream when she banishes One is exactly the same audio clip from when she banished the demogorgon?
in the demogorgon one it abruptly stops in the middle and goes to roaring/electrical noises for several seconds but if you cut that section out it's exactly the same

I know Lucas Sinclair Can Do No Wrong and we love how he goes to his dad for advice and stuff, but are we allowed to acknowledge his s1 use of words like "sissy" and "pussy" which are only used elsewhere by Tommy H, Lonnie, the flashback where we see little Billy learn Neil's words and behaviors... just curious
#where did he get those words#just. Society?#someone point me to the lucas analysis I'm sure somebody's done it
