The season five Stranger Things finale drew big crowds at the AMC theater in Columbus over the New Year holiday. Ismael Tolayo drove from Atlanta to Columbus to see the Netflix blockbuster series finale. “Normally I’m able to get good seats but since we bought them pretty late only the first three rows were available,” Tolayo said. “It was pretty packed. The lines to get any popcorn was literally going right to the door.”
Another movie goer told NowGeorgia.com “I think a lot of people really enjoyed the movie and I think a lot of people enjoyed the atmosphere. Every time something happened in the movie people reacted like the whole audience was clapping for some moments. There was at least five times the whole audience just applauded at certain scenes.”
However, if you’re hoping to jump on the Stranger Things bandwagon, the season finale is not the place to start. “It was definitely something that you had to watch all five seasons to understand anything because if you just jump in to watch the finale you would be so confused,” Tolayo said.
The creators of the hit show posted more than one million seats were sold at 620 AMC movie theatres located across the country.
