How is CM Punk of all people giving a better take and opinion of the final season than 95% of the internet?

It’s gonna age well eventually people will appreciate it

He's 100% correct

Another great take by Punk

FULL INTERVIEW:

People aren’t mad about the ending they are mad about how easily Vecna got beat in the final battle

nah dawg that shit just sucked

While I can respect his opinion, I disagree completely. Peoples problem with show isn’t that they “fantasy booked” the ending. It’s that the writers wrote things into the show that they just chose/forgot to ever address. Which made things not make sense.

He’s a liberal lmaooo that’s literally his kinds way of thinking

It was good like just dont overpush your agenda on people

What’s crazy is people have been like this forever I mean the outrage over the Seinfeld finale because people were expecting like an hour long peak comedy master piece and when it didn’t go how they fantasized it in their heads they were pissed 100% with punk on ST ending

He's right BUT - the real issue is that people who don't like something can't shut up about it. If you see a positive Stranger Things post it will have 10k likes and 40 people responding bitching. I mean look at this post. 1.6k likes - and most of the comments are bitching.

in wwe SOMETIMES fan’s genuinely book the show better than triple h & tko😭 i gurantee somebody out there could’ve booked john’s retirement run much better.

The fans have every right to criticize something when it sucks. He obviously liked it because he's a left wing lunatic.

Online “fandom” culture ironically is one of the most antisocial phenomenons. People think being obsessively critical of everything they consumes means they care more or are more tuned into art. In reality it only comes across as loud, aggressive parasocial nitpicking.

I didn’t have any ending I wanted. I just want good writing and a great program. This last season was a Disney channel level program unfortunately

It does feel like a lot of people like being loudly angry at almost everything . I really dug the ending. Eleven is pretty much E.T. and we all know how that ending went. They both had to go in order for their friends to be safe D; .

CM Punk is right

Yep. Like Tarantino said, he makes movies for himself and everyone else is invited to watch. If that’s how the Duffers wanted to end it, it’s their show. At least they gave a legitimate reason for El dying (if she actually did die) unlike the final season of Game of Thrones…

Honestly after watching Welcome to Derry Season 1 finale I had high hopes for the Stranger Things finale. They really rushed the battle and it didn’t let the epilogue set in correctly.

Okay so this is actually NOTHING like dungeons & dragons. Players can ask “hey what happened to that djinn we let loose” and there is a definitive real hard answer I can give as to what happened. @CMPunk you are welcome to sit it on our dnd games sometime and find out

Couldn’t agree more.

“People just seem to want to be angry”.

Perfectly said🙌🏾 There's valid criticisms and then there's they didn't do things the way I wanted them too

100

The issue wasn't the epilogue, it was the final boss battle. Much like Game of Thrones, they spent years building up this monster (Vecna is the Ice King) and you imagine an epic battle...and it just turns into a wet fart.

The guy who got famous for his “pipe bomb” is trying to gate keep criticizing things. Can’t make it up.

He’s 100% right. Except the Game of Thrones final season everyone agrees it was complete ass.

He’s got a point

He’s right, especially with the online community

I agree with him all but the part where he said people create a fantasy in their head the problem is the internet having 3000 million theories and the one they didn't have was the script. It sets expectations and then doesn't happen. Thats what makes people the way they are

im not angry just really dissapointed with how they decided to end it it kind of happens everytime a show goes for way too long when it should have just ended a couple seasons ago

How did it take people so long to figure out the duffer brothers were just making stuff up as they went?

I'm fully with him on this. People love to fantasy book the way they think they want it and just refuse to go along for the ride anymore.

I don’t mind the opinion that El is dead, it’s the way people want her dead because they don’t like her character or Millie. I just feel like they wouldn’t have shown El in that beautiful place if she was dead. It would’ve been better to leave it up to us and not show El anywhere
