What is that supposed to be? Spoil it.

should have been a puppet that looks decent on vhs and in my rose tinted recollection

That there's a demogorgon bro.

>80s throwback means using technology from the 80s

Dumb OP is dumb.

The CGI and all the effects in the show were atrocious.

That scene in the school where the lights are flickering was hurting my eyes and I knew something was off.

I paused it for a second and my tv screen was completely black, not like very dark where you'd expect to see some thing in the shot still illuminated but completely black.

How fucking lazy can you get when you won't even use real set lighting and just turn off the visuals to simulate lights flickering? Jesus Christ.

>what's that boys?
>you need to know about alternate dimensions?
>you want to build an sensory deprivation tank?
>good thing i know a lot for a middle school science teacher since there's no internet

This is essentially an autistic complaint. Yeah, if you zero in on the CGI and look for minute flaws, you can find them. If you suspend disbelief, in a show about upside down monsters, telekinetic waifus, etc, then it's fine. Puppetry work would have cost a fortune. It's just a tv series after all.

>implying that isn't a soviet spy

OP will only be happy once studios start making actual monsters to put in movies

>>"good thing i know a lot for a middle school science teacher since there's no internet"
>write a show about the 80s cause nostalgia
>writers so hack they can't even imagine a time before internet
>writers too young to remember looking things up in a book at the library
>lmao just like the 80s guys haha remember????

>It's just a tv series after all.

xD lmao it's just a show nigga haha like just close your eyes and enjoy it heheh like just walk away from netflix xD xD

Isnt that what we all want though?

>That scene in the school where the lights are flickering was hurting my eyes
creep out of your basement once in a while and your eyes will adapt to light better

They did actually build an animatronic monster, they mixed practical and cgi. Goes to show most people can't tell the difference anymore.

You sound like a fucking retard. Sad!

I was wondering if the christmas lights were practical or not.
Couldn't tell. Seems like it'd be a lot of electrical work though.

>Hang The Thing poster in kids room as nod to fans of the genre
>Completely ignore any lessons from said movie and use a sprite from silent hill 2

I loved Stranger Things but this is honestly it's biggest flaw. I really wish they went with practical effects, the monster was used sparingly enough for it to really well and the scenes which it appears in had ideal lighting to have made it pay off. I can't accept that this was the original vision for the show and that they didn't get fucked over by budgetary and schedule issues since everything else is so high quality.

>le basement meme xD
I work in the film industry. I've been on big budget sets and plenty of non union low budget shows that paid more attention to detail.

>I paused it for a second and my tv screen was completely black, not like very dark where you'd expect to see some thing in the shot still illuminated but completely black.

Almost like it was on purpose you rube!

>I work in the film industry.

Then you should know better

>It has always been something of a lifelong dream to create a monster and bring it to life on-screen. Not in the computer, but for real. Tobuildit. Like so many filmmakers our age and older, we grew up on genre films that existed before computer graphics. There was something about the effects being so tangible in those films that made them especially terrifying to us when we were kids. We’re specifically thinking about Ridley Scott’sAlien, John Carpenter’sThe Thing, and Clive Barker’sHellraiser. So from very early on we knew we wanted to build an animatronic monster

>Then you should know better
That's what I'm saying. I know better. So shut your faggot face nigger.

>First, we had to design it. We hired Aaron Sims, a wonderful concept artist, to help us construct our monster. We spoke to him at length about the creature designs of H.R. Giger, Clive Barker, Guillermo del Toro, and Masahiro Ito (Silent Hill). We all felt their monsters were so effective because of their strangeness. If you were to encounter a being from another planet or dimension, we imagine it wouldn’t look like anything you’d expect. The more bizarre, the more frightening. Eventually, we landed on the design you see in the show: An unnaturally thin monster with no face, long arms, and a head that opens up like a disgusting flower when it’s feeding time.

>I've been on big budget sets

BLACKED doesnt count

>The next step was to build it. We decided to work with a company called Spectral Motion. Spectral did a lot of work on Guillermo del Toro’sHellboyfilms and they’re one of the most experienced companies with animatronics. It was a race to get the creature completed in time; they had only about two months, meaning there was almost no room for error. But they knocked it out of the park. The first time we saw our monster’s head peel open… it just blew our minds and transported us back to our childhood. And thewayit moved was terrifying — their brilliant robotics engineer had designed the animatronics in such a way that the movement of the head “petals” never repeated themselves. They had a life of their own, moving in unpredictable and bizarre patterns. It felt organic. Creepy.Real.

A guy in a motiob suit that thet completely layer graphics onto later doesn't count.

Dude they built an animatronic monster, you just have to accept you couldn't tell the difference

>An unnaturally thin monster with no face, long arms, and a head that opens up like a disgusting flower

Because that's SOOOO strange and doesn't look like every other 21st century monster design.

Humanoid monsters with LE DISTURBING HEAD are so fucking boring.

The entire premise reminded me of Watchers. Two things escape a government lab, one is special and cute and tormented and befriends the boy that finds it, the other is a savage unstoppable killing machine.

Now let me remind you what the monster in Watchers actually looked like.

>all this apologizing
Duffman pls go

Also holy fuck I just found this poster and felt for a moment why everybody is so fixated on 80s nostalgia

At 40 seconds you can see it's a puppet touched up with cg, get over it sperg.

>tfw the monster is a revived version of harambe with supernatural powers
