Stranger Things

Recently I watched season 1&2 of "Stranger Things", which is a Netflix original SF drama series. I like such kind of mysterious scientific movies and can't help but staying up late to watch the next episode. However, the plot got increasingly boring as the movie went by because stranger things happened in the story were easily turned to be monsters in the different world. (..because you could easily find even in the first series that stranger things happened in the story are derived from monsters in the different world.)
If you lived in or are familiar with 80's American culture, you would find 80's lifestyles and musics in the story, and then feel nostalgic for your old memories. Anyway, I was a bit disappointed that strangers things are nothing more than strange monsters.

I like suchthat kind of mysterious scientific moviesce-fiction show, and can't help but staying up late to watch the next episode.

Let me know if you want an explanation of any of the corrections here... it's not quite the easiest to explain.

Separately though, "scientific" is a bit of a weird descriptor for a fictional show. There are situations where you could use it, but it will definitely draw attention. And, for "Stranger Things" in particular, I don't think people would describe it as "scientific".

Finally, "Stranger Things" is a show, not a movie.

"old memories" aren't something that one feels nostalgic for. Because of the "old memories", one "feels nostalgic" for, in this case, 80's American culture, but one does usually not "feel nostalgic" for the memories themselves.

Why aren't "old memories" something that one feels nostalgic for? I think that you can say "I feel nostalgic for my childhood". "The story will reminds you of your old memory if you lived in 80's America." is correct?

If you lived in or are familiar with 80's American culture, you would findthe 80's lifestyles and musics in the story, and then will make you feel nostalgic for your old memories.

"your old memories" is built into the definition of "nostalgia", so it's repetitious to add this.

Stranger Things


This sentence has been marked as perfect!

Recently I watched season 1&2 of "Stranger Things", which is a Netflix original SF drama series.


Recently I watched seasons 1& and 2 of "Stranger Things", which is a Netflix original SFscience-fiction drama series. Recently I watched seasons 1 and 2 of "Stranger Things", which is a Netflix original science-fiction drama series.

"&" can be used in titles, proper nouns, etc., but not regular text. In writing "SF" in place of "science-fiction", we save maybe 10 characters (virtually no benefit), and introduce possible confusion. It's best to use acronyms only when they're universally known (e.g. CPU) or after you've introduced them ("...science fiction (SF)..."). Furthermore, there has to be a good reason to introduce an acronym.

The "&" symbol is not really the same as "and". It's maybe not *grammatically* wrong to use "&", but it's quite unnatural.
