Well we watched the first disc today of Stranger Things and damn, this show is what American Horror Story should have been. It's pretty enjoyable thus far with a great mystery, conspiracy theories, a possible monster, and a Silent Hill-esque alternate world. Love the constant X-Men remarks the toothless kid makes towards 11.

The one thing I want to see more than anything is Edward Cullen... I mean Steve, having a slow and painful death at the hands of whatever the monster is.

The music rocks, although, the Blu-Ray is probably one of the worst Blu-Rays I have ever encountered. Unskippable trailers at the beginning of the disc (one of which is like a 4 minute trailer for Season 2, which makes no sense to put on for Season 1). Secondly, they didn't bother to put a chapter stop after the opening credits to the show, so you either have to sit through the credits every time or fast foward through them, which can be annoying depending on the player. Thank the gods the PS3 makes fast forwarding simplistic.

If we didn't have friends coming out in the next hour, I would totally watch the other disc right now. Oh well, I can wait until tomorrow.

The Thing - 10/10
