As a huge fan, I have to say the ending of Stranger Things really hit me hard! The final episode of Season 5 dropped on New Year’s Eve, and with its incredible cast – Winona Ryder, David Harbour, Finn Wolfhard, Millie Bobby Brown, and so many others – it was an emotional rollercoaster. Honestly, the reaction has been all over the place – some are happy with how things wrapped up, others are heartbroken, and a lot of us are desperately hoping there’s a hidden extra episode coming on January 7th!
As a huge Stranger Things fan, I just finished the final season, and wow, it was a rollercoaster! While the ending had a lot of exciting moments, one cast member’s interpretation of what happens to Eleven in the last episode… well, let’s just say it’s not what most fans will want to hear. Honestly, after waiting so long for these final episodes, it’s a bit of a relief to have the story wrapped up. You really notice how much older the actors are now compared to when the show started! The season finale, especially the episode ‘The Rightside Up,’ brings everything to a head, but Eleven’s ultimate sacrifice to save everyone is definitely the most talked-about moment.

I remember reading he said something like that in The Independent, and honestly, I think he might be right.

Frodo felt overwhelmed and hopeless about his mission to destroy the One Ring. The journey had just started, but he’d already faced death several times, and he discovered the dangerous Gollum was following him. He told Gandalf he wished the Ring had never come into his possession, and that none of this was happening. Gandalf replied with a famous line: “Many feel that way when times are hard, but it’s not ours to choose. All we can do is decide how to use the time we’re given.”
