Also, no there should not be a Nintendo tie-in game for the series -- obviously it should be an Atari tie-in game. Duh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also didn't see blood when he fell. I simply assumed he must have scraped himself, even if only a little. But I'm willing to concede the creature showed up simply because that area is some kind of hotspot and that's how he was captured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The creature also showed up several times when Joyce was there and as far as I know, she wasn't bleeding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't the creature show up at the house because that is where Will runs and hides from it while in the other dimension? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps, but the question seems to be whether or not the creature will show up without a blood scent. He showed up when Will wasn't bleeding, again when Joyce wasn't. Both of them were able to escape the creature (will in the Upside Down, Joyce in the regular world) while Barb wasn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceChampion Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Will wasn't bleeding, but the creature was looking for Eleven. Coming across Will was a coincidence, but then the creature followed him because I assume live human being is better than not finding Eleven. Open question whether the creature wanted Will in order to hatch a baby monster. Perhaps, if you're bleeding, it will feed, if not bleeding, it'll use you as a hatchery.

Astromech Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 I'm curious as to the gates. Eleven opens the initial one, but the demogorgon seems to have no trouble making other ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drawkcabi Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 I finished this yesterday. This is MY show!!! Just the best from beginning to end. Loved the actors, the story, the directing, and most of all 80's nostalgia! I also thought it was amazing how all the actors (the kids mostly) looked familiar like actors I've seen in other 80's movies or shows. Part of it was how they dressed and talked, wore their hair, but part of it was how they actually looked, they just had the 80's kid look. I didn't know this show was being made, heard nothing about it, just one day there it was available to stream on Netflix. The most wonderful surprise of the summer!

Until then it simply lived alone in the Upside Down and had no knowledge of our world? Also, or alternatively, Eleven opening the initial gate weakened the fabric between the worlds or something (I like is explanation better actually. It explains why it stays within a fairly small area, because it's harder to break through elsewhere. on the blood thing, remember that the man in the hazmat suit was also not bleeding, and was found and killed easily enough in the Upside Down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said blood attracts it like a shark, but that is their theory. Maybe it's simply an opportune hunter. Maybe the demogorgon wasn't hungry when it took Barb, but seized the snack for later. Their really wasn't any difference between what it did to Barb and Will. They simply got to Will early enough to save him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red snow Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 First two episodes were good fun. When it's dark it's particularly effective. I felt bad for "Benny" - they did a great job of making me care for him in a short space of time. Not sure what's going on at all. My thoughts are that the Mum (Winona Ryder) may have powers herself and that she's causing the weird shit in the house. I'm also curious as to how old eleven is and how old the sheriff's kid would be if she wasn't dead - if you know what I mean. The acting is strong all around the kids are pretty good too with Eleven standing out so far with tricky material. The music is cool too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyoshi Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 ^That was also my thought in the first few episodes. I think the writers did that intentionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martini Sigil Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 I would like to know what Mathew Modine was trying to accomplish in the first place.... What practical application did he think opening another dimension would have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
