Stranger Things posters – Meme Monday

To go back to the basic concept of a meme, it’s a piece of culture that carries on and transmits between people. It’s the cultural idea of a gene (and thus has the same vowel sound as gene). With that in mind, NetFlix with Stranger Things has just tapped into the collective consciousnesses of the Internet and hit with some solid nostalgia.

Rather than copy in a bunch of images, I think this Twitter Moment does a nice job of it, as it also shows people presenting the poster that the homage is based on. Enjoy!

These Stranger Things 80s homage posters are pretty cool
