No.3 is more likely X-men: First Class
Yeah, also what about E.T! That scene when Elle wanted to dress up as a ghost for Halloween is completely reminiscent of that!
Not an obvious one but Suburbia.
The scene where the demodogs attacked the kids reminded me of jurassic parks raptor scenes
I’m coming in 😁😁
Indiana jones and the temple of doom.
After they have found the journalist, they go to sleep…. and then some…exaxt same sequence in the indian hotel with Indy and his soon to be lover.
If you’re from the Triangle in North Carolina, Stranger Things also references locations here! Jordan Lake, Eno River! Turns on the writers are from Durham!
Aliens 3 had the dogs so. It’s definitely not the first 2.
Did you missed the radar Watchmojo ?
Even El’s hair looked exactly like Ripley’s 😛
