#my S3 rewatch

[emblazons]

SO. Just in case anyone thought the production team was not that serious about their details / subtext—here’s some proof that the intro lead up to “Mike is in the closet” I was talking about the other day is in fact intentional, down to the tiniest set changes + positioning they make to make subtextual points.

Let me explain.

In the scene where we see the camera pan to where Mike is making out with El / taking her hands off her, we see this image of him (with the little block letters) on El’s dresser, in conjunction with the lines “just a little more time could open closing doors…” blatantly referring to the fact that they’re setting up Mike being in the closet.

They’ve even added his name at the bottom so you know for a fact it’s him in the image / who the subtext applies to, leaving not even a bit of space for another conclusion.

—in S03E03, however, we see the exact same image on El’s nightstand (sans the block letters) because it’s just meant to show her passive affection for Mike—same as her little shrine we see in S4. The picture is (obviously) not the point of the shot…but it’s clearly the same picture (if you look at the space around the frame).

I even went in on my full screen TV for a close up lmao

From this alone, we can conclude a few things:

1: they literally rearranged props in El’s room to get that shot of Mike’s picture to be there—with the addition of his name to make sure no one was confused who it was.

2: this pic was intentionally placed to be a part of a line of a shot, which also included a rainbow + Mike’s name on the wall, a picture drawn by Will, and a mask…which is honestly only slightly less heavy-handed subtext than that gd one way sign in S4.

3: they had the lyrics “just a little more time could open closing doors” edited to match the timing of this image being shown to the audience…as Mike’s first shot of the season…before he takes his girlfriend’s hands off him making out to start singing.

—I just. Like. Sure you can misinterpret stuff, but. I don’t know how people hold so tightly to “production error trutherism” when swap details to make points like this clearly exist if you’re paying close enough attention.

Also…yeah. They really did rearrange details in El’s room to put subtext about Mike being gay in his first scene, and it’s killing me because…lmaooo production stays doing the MOST

the companion will go oh god doctor who is that?? and the doctor will get all serious and somber and say listen. he's the most evil creature in the universe. he's the worst enemy i've ever faced. he's horrible and unpredictable and you can never ever let your guard down. and then the villain will walk into the room like this

so we all agree that this season will destroy us then build us back together as entirely different people?

[elphabasthropp]

and you've thrown that away to play out, what? a fancy on the neighbor boy, who happens to be the most desired man of the season?

Wait up, wait up...

And then he says

"if you are going to make me say it out loud"

Colin how many times did you say i miss you in the letters you sent Pen? 🤣😭

I'm also of the opinion that she probably read them (i mean do you really think she could help herself after seeing her with his journal?) only because she had this response locked and loaded 😭🤣

This is the most random thing I’m ever gonna post but I’m watching S3 and…they really are gonna have to be so serious because these foreshadows of Mike being gay are so ?!?!!! now that I know what’s happening?

Thing one: Mike’s picture being shown as we hear/see “just a little more time can open closing doors…” for the boy with 1500 instances of closet imagery ☠️😂

Thing two: the rainbow with his name + the mask shown right before we see him two seconds later, implying 1) queerness and 2) that what we’re about to see is his “mask” (bonus points as usual for the homies who pointed out the painting of/by Will here too lmao)

Thing three: him taking El’s hands off of him as we see/hear “just a little uncertainty can bring you down—”

—before he stops the makeout entirely to start singing.

Like?!? @chirpsythismorning just posted about how there were several jokes making light of how Robin was foreshadowed as a lesbian in S3—and this is literally the VERY FIRST SET OF SHOTS WE SEE after the intro music / the Russian cold open of the season.

I just. The duffers are so ridiculous for hiding their gays in plain sight (especially in their “play” season) & I love it lol
