Just finished binging this! It's ridiculously fun! I'm hoping the season 2 is a completely different story, but set in the same universe.
[QUOTE=TheServer;50730789]I wonder [sp]how they will go about season 2, doesn't seem like there is much to go off of.[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]11 could still be somewhere else. Will had some weird slug thing crawl out of his mouth right at the end. There's still the lab and we don't actually know if there were other successful tests from MKultra.[/sp]

That sort of implies Eleven is still out there somewhere. He's certainly not paying homage to her because he was willing to sell her out for the safety of the kids.[/sp]
I just finished watching. I really liked it. I could've lived without [sp]every non adult character. They just kinda ticked me off a little bit, but otherwise Eleven would have feel shoehorned if she worked with adults. Hopper is such a certified badass. I would've liked more explanation to "the upside down". Why the fleshy growth over everything? Why is it dark? Why does it resemble the original town so well? It seems to be like a snapshot of the world when Eleven made the rift. The monster can also travel between worlds at locations other than the lab. For a season 2 I would like to see the town maybe quarantined? From the opening scene when the scientist is trying to escape and the end when Hopper and Will's mom go to the upside down, it seems that Brenner didn't have control over rift, and the growth is infesting the lower level of the facility. If we assume the opening scene to Will's rescue is exactly one week, who knows how out of control it could be by the one month jump.[/sp]
had me sold on demogorgon.

Not everything needs to be crystal clear in order to make the story work though. The alternate dimension is just that, a place that resembles our world but just different so in this case it's a world consumed by this growth and a single apex predator that we know of. The growths are obviously some kind of living mold that would be gaining energy the bigger and further it gets. We could assume the monster somehow uses either its own immense energy or energy from the growths to rip into our world although in the case of a monster such as this the less we know, the better it is at being creepy/scary.[/sp]
Loving this show so far! Wish I didn't have to work so early otherwise I'd definitely be binging on this.
