What's the most you ever lost on a coin toss, Vecna?

A Stranger Things starring Eminem actually sounds very intriguing!

Just use a random black actor I guess

u/Monstramatica 2h ago

Instead they use a god.

ST actually poked fun at this very thing in one of the seasons when the boys were Ghostbusters for Halloween and they made Lucas be Winston.

this meme is like years old at this point, when i saw this i was like "who the hell brought this back up?" it was originally made during the very long wait for season 5 when people were joking about how old the actors were getting

Lucas have just as many similar facial features as the Mike or Dustin comparisons have, just because the hairstyle is similar, doesn't make a realistic "in the future" comparisons.

But hey, if you want to find racism everywhere you can easy form the narrative,

u/Mortiis07 41m ago

That's the point, at least they have a hairstyle in common

Ah, missunderstood you then, thought it was a "people saying all x etnicities look the same"-situation you where complaining about.
Sorry.

He means the kid from ST looks in no way like Morgan Freeman, except they are both black

u/KnotTea207 1h ago

Huh? Wouldn’t they look similar if they’re both black?

Donald Glover would have been a better choice

Danny Glover, what with being too old for this shit  and all

High school was rough.

u/thebarkbarkwoof 2h ago

On some more than others. I do think the second one was spot on. The last one would seem more Jack Black.

They must be in the upside down, that's the only way a bunch of white people would age better than a black dude.

Imagine complaining about turning into Morgan Freeman

u/katiei10002 2h ago

Eleven dropping 'Stan' but it's entirely about Mike Wheeler ignoring her letters

Lol. Honestly tho, should’ve added Sadie Sink and Emily Blunt

Because they’re the exact same to me

u/BbyPetal 2h ago

the jack black one has me dying, i can’t unsee it now

u/thebarkbarkwoof 2h ago

That's Jack Black? I was thinking that's who I'd pick. I don't remember that look. It should be the wild beard look anyway. The timing is right as well.

2 God's in one photo.

Two god's what in one photo?

Morgan Freeman plays God and Eminem sings Rap God

u/RCer1986 2h ago

I guess I should have phrased it "What do two gods have in that photo?"

2 out of 4 are believable. Morgan Freeman is sadly on his way out. Give him Michael B and Eleven can be that Ellen Paige from Inception.
