Stranger Things: 5 Most Important Characters Heading Into The Final Season. Top Story - July 2022.
Stranger Things has dropped the second volume of season four on Netflix, and boy, the two movie-length episodes are quite the rollercoaster. While there were plenty of cheerworthy moments, such as Steve, Robin, and Nancy's weakening of Vecna, Hopper defeating a Demogorgon with a sword, and Hopper's sweet reunion with Eleven, there were also some tragedies, such as the death of Eddie Munson, and Max being left comatose after a near miss with Vecna. So near, in fact, that her heart stopped, giving Vecna the four deaths required to open four gates to the Upside Down across Hawkins. And while Nancy, Robin, and Steve weakened Vecna, the villain still escaped to fight another day.

LEARNING FROM NETFLIX
Let's see if Netflix co-founder's suggestions work. Netflix co-founder Mark Randolph claims he never believed in business plans, considering them a waste of time. With that in mind, your business plan falls apart once you become the first customer. And that's right, in a way. Real business is not like fancy documents and textbooks. The biggest problem with aspiring entrepreneurs is that you have to invest a lot of money to make a lot of money. But where can they be found without a list of completed projects? Or at least without a realistic financial model that early investors would rely on? Yes, the idea needs to be tested in practice and proved to be viable. But if you want to grow from a small experience to a large-scale company, business plans and financial models are the basis for conversations with investors. Without strategies, interim reports or predictions, you will not know where you are going, what is acceptable to you and what is not. The outside investor should make sure that your work is not a chaotic thing, but a fairly predictable business. To keep your business plans working, study the audience that needs your product or service. The deeper, the better. Hire community representatives, visit the target market for a while, get local advice on cultural nuances and regulatory policy. A wave of subtleties that you won't be ready for can wash away the sand castle of a startup business. Studying the client will not help avoid all the mistakes, but it will definitely reduce their number. Adequacy or greed? Randolph described his first impression of visiting Amazon's office in the late 1990s as an office with workplaces, stained floors, lots of people in a small area and stray dogs in the hallways. There were dirty and watery parts. Negotiations between Netflix and Amazon took place at an old door table. Shortly before the meeting, Amazon went public with an IPO, Bezos' fortune was $ 54 million (according to the book). Randolph points to Bezos' almost coaching greed, but he makes his assumptions about why people agreed to work long hours with him and not enough money. Bezos is a strange genius. He has extraordinary intelligence, "stupidity" and childish curiosity - with which he awakens devotion in people. Now, in 2021, if the working conditions are similar to the 1997 Amazon Office, the market will not appreciate your idea. You are unlikely to persuade professionals to work overtime without offering reasonable compensation. On the other hand, you are unlikely to get good results from working with people who do not share your values and goals. The School of Survival and Negotiation The last piece is about the importance of communication. Mark Randolph talks about his experience at the National Outdoor Leadership School where people like him were blindfolded and taken to other cities without watches, wallets, junk or warm clothes. The test lasted for three days, during which it was necessary to provide yourself with food, shelter and other types of rest. That's when the Netflix co-founder learned to ask for money. Randolph writes that it is not a problem to ask an investor for $ 25,000 after asking for two cents for a meal in the middle of the street. The book states that Randolph, the father of many children, a great man, and an experienced employee, was most embarrassed to ask his mother for money. It supported many of his efforts, but Netflix's pitch was particularly challenging. I understand his feelings very well. But finding the first investment teaches us to prioritize: Do you want to avoid the hassle or start a project? Like many entrepreneurs, when I was 18, I was looking for my first money among FFFs. Family fundraising is not quick and not always successful. It only worked for me for the tenth time. However, I got 10 times less than I wanted and I had to make up for it with 20 times effort. When I was in university, I had another communication challenge. Computer games, which I have loved since childhood, and business ideas in the first semester drove me to the brink of eviction. This situation, unlike any other, improved my communication skills. I had to talk to some teachers one by one and ask them to take some again, I was exchanging useful books with others, with the third I was lucky to meet on the battlefield at Heroes of Might and Magic III. So I learned to solve problems quickly and stop them if possible. To me, these situations are summarized in two points:

Nancy Wheeler & Nancy Thompson - of the same coin
Minor spoilers for Stranger Things Season Four Ahead, you've been warned! I’ve heard that Nancy Wheeler (played by Natalia Dyer) of Stranger Things takes her name from scream queen icon and final girl, Nancy Thompson. However, prior to the current season, I didn’t personally see much in common beyond the shared name and soft pink sweaters. Just a nice little homage in a show filled with 80's iconography.

General Hospital: The age-old soap tactic might unite Willow and Nina
General Hospital may stick with a formula General Hospital fans know that the truth that Nina Reeves ( Cynthia Watros) is Willow Tait’s ( Katelyn Macmullen) biological mother will be revealed but how and when is not known. Some fans believe Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zampragna) and Sam McCall) will investigate and figure it out but that’s not likely.

My Favourite Old Western T.V. Shows
When the T.V. shows today become overwhelming, it's nice to take a break and delve into the classics. Less swearing, next to no gore, and some creative camera work in lieu of CGI and extravagant effects, makes 1950's-60's shows a welcome change. I've been on a western kick lately, and here are my top suggestions:
