Because the duffers simply wrote an inconsistent, bad finale.

I actually think all of this was intentional. Vecna “won”. I think everything after Vecna coming out of the upside down at the end of episode 4 (including will using his powers to stop the demos) is false. And DBs intentions were to reboot when the kids are adults and have it be like IT. The new series is named after a quote from Stephen King, also the title of the third book in the talisman trilogy that JUST came out (Lucas was reading the talisman to max in the hospital at the end of s4)

my biggest reason is when eddie and the other guys were playing dnd and he said that vecna was missing his left arm and one eye, which was true when joyce killed him. also when someone rolled the dice and it hit on 11 eddie said ‘that’s a miss’ and that vecna still lives and joyce hit his head 11 times before she killed him

I believe conformity is the ending. We had to (and did) put all these pieces together to figure it out. That’s all. This is the ending.

This would honestly be the best thing they could ever do. Not only would it be groundbreaking for TV in general to take that god-awful ending and go back to make it all a psychological nightmare for them and us, but fix it and do it right this time. That would be incredible. It would make sense why I felt rushed it would make sense why the fight was so anti-climatic. This would put the show on top of one of the best shows if they actually did this.

bro… i’ve been saying this shit from the beginning of all the conspiracies… ITS JUST BAD WRITING. None of it made sense, they gave up multiple story lines that don’t make sense and plenty of plot holes and horrible decisions. wills coming out scene is longer then the Kaiju fight

I think the new series is going to lead up to confirmity gate: We’re probably going to find out that the mind flayer is from space (taking from the ufo in the teaser video), and that the scientist that Henry killed in the cave worked in Area 51, which was founded in 1955 in Nevada btw, and then we are going to get Confirmity gate. They definitely filmed two versions of the finale while making season five, because it took so long

Small thing - the tapes behind robin are binary code, not morse!! The morse "u did not stop me" was a huge misinfo rumor based on someone asking grok. I have a simplified twt post here: https://x.com/danimalsk8r2/status/2118925040683028567?a=6X3FywScUGvVmBj1bHY&s=20 but basically, when you convert the lines into ASCII (decoder for binary-> letters), there are only 2 codes that are valid. Uppercase M and lowercase w. I think it's related to the theories based on eternal sunshine, where mike has to travel through his memories, maybe even with a younger will guiding him. Either way, it would be pretty impossible to accidentally ONLY have the 2 letters for ur main characters in the tape shelf, and no other stray letters at all. The detail is super interesting
