Even the secondary characters in this show are so well thought out. You root for them or hate them . But when something happens the ones you're rooting for your so sad for them. That's great writing and directing.
Alexei was one of my favorite characters from that season.. I really wanted him to become a permanent cast member, which made his dead even more crushing to me.. poor guy
@@smartpasta8912 because in Soviet Russia it was so dead, so sad plus he’s been in an underground lab working on a machine for years rarely getting out, I’d assume one would be happy to see something so ‘happy’ looking. Plus he even said in him own words “I become an American citizen and join in the fun”. All he wanted was fun. But that’s just how I view it
I have this theory that the reason why Murray learned karate in season 4 is because of Alexi. When alexi got shot he told Joyce how he just stood there and wasn't able to do anything, so seeing Murray use his karate to beat up the pilot was a cool redemption
He didn’t have one… he spent his whole life as a scientist working on the “Machineh” lol. His parents probably out wouldn’t have been close to him considering his lifestyle 🫤 makes it even worse
Alexeis death hurt bro, just looking back on how happy he was without having those bad Russians watching him.. man.. i always get attached to the kinds of characters who are shy, side character, less known, awesome. Its amazing how Alexei wasnt afraid, unlike other shy, happy characters.
I remember going to watch The Nutcracker ballet in elementary school. The performance group was from the USSR and later our teacher told us 2 of them defected to the US instead of returning home
I like that you were talking about all the characters that all died a tragic death and you’re giving them some spotlight I’m really happy about that 👍🏻, and RIP to all them maybe if they make a season five all those characters come to life as zombies 🧟♀🧟🧟♂🧟♀🧟🧟♂
I just re watched some season 3 clips and noticed that the Pepsi machine in the Seven Eleven behind Alexei(when he's eating Cherry Slushie off his fingers) says "Freedom to Choose".
Would've been nice for Alexei to live. Even though he doesn't understand English, he would like the sound of Dustin and Suzie singing. The song would be stuck in his head. Alexei would've been some good help in season 4.
Yeah Lexis death hit hard because he was just so happy for the opportunity to experience Western fun, I feel like so many people in this world are banned or prohibited from this 😕 😢 😔
Actually it is a different bunker.... the first one was in Russia... Alexi states it didn't work at first because of location... it only worked in Hawkins... i literally just finished rewatching that episode.
alexei’s death destroyed me when watching st he’ll always be one of my favorite characters fr he was a wholesome breath of fresh air in a dark environment. and idk if ur still doing this series but u should do one on vecna/henry!
I like that you were talking about characters they all died a tragic death in the show because they were so good in the show And now they’re dead I’m just glad you’re giving them some spotlight
Did Russians execute soldiers and scientists for failing to meet objectives when the iron curtain was up? Seems over the top but then again... Not sure if the Duffer brothers are going for historical accuracy and realistic behavior.
I always enjoyed Alexei. Sure, Eddie Munson is my favorite because he's likes cool kid stuff like I am, but Alexei really is just so funny. I'm glad we got at least why he likes Slurpees. I thought he like it because he does, but that's not really true. It was simply is because he lived in the U.S.S.R where commodities in the US are only on the black market. Shame he died by Grigori. He just wanted to experience America when that guy straight up ruined his fun.
Hi CCz world :,) i love ur videos ur commentary is kinda funny and interesting could u pls post a video explaining Steve Harrington and his backstory? i wanna know more about this character if u see this Hi
Honestly, Alexi is really good, character-wise. And this is coming from someone who doesn't know Stranger Things all that well. The blatant purpose of him highlighting the Cold War and americanizing, to the point where he assumes Woody Woodpecker is part of the Looney Tunes because the characters are both so similar is art.
I guess we should just be happy he got that Slurpee and got to play carnival games but yes this did suck But I'm really looking forward to CZ Chrissy Horror History like the actress did a great job in such a short amount of screen time.
Even though Grigori killed Alexei for enjoying American culture, I think it was also because he sided with Hopper, Joyce, and Murray and because he told them about how to turn off the generator. Hopper even said that if he returned to his comrades that they’d think he spilled his guts, and that he, Joyce, and Murray the best chance he’s got.
The worst part if Alexie's death was that it seemed so pointless. The writers just killed him off to make the audience sad and upset. It's a quick and cheap way of raising the stakes which imo was pretty unimaginative and disappointing
it wasn't pointless tho, alexie had become a threat to the russians. He could give americans highly confidential information... it seemed fair that the russians killed him
@@idontlikeanime1578 I respectfully disagree. While I would say it is internally consistent with what the Soviets would do, that doesn't mean that it serves a purpose to the story.
Please help! I've been trying to find a horror movie from when I was a kid but have had no luck All I know about it is that the cover has a chest/box with creature hands and maybe a face peeking out? And the plot is a geeky teen let's out some demons or monsters for a chest and has to catch them all. Not a kids movie tho.. I believe it was 80s or maybe early 90s?
