Representations in Stranger Things aren’t simple. They’re always going to be going beyond the typical binary situation.
Stranger Things is novelistic. It always goes on over a length of time.
- We might see flashbacks
- Systemic Change
REPRESENTATIONS IN STRANGER THINGS
- Teenagers
Rebellious, Somewhat classical, stereotypical. Bullying the weak and nerdy (the whole AV Club thing)
- Family Life
Extremely maternal, fathers distant. Siblings argue, absolutely no moment of happy family apart from the tent flashback.
- Mothers
Classical damsel in distress.
- Absent Fathers
- Police
- Government
