Edit: I’m not actually opposed to watching movies with directors cuts. Just realized I love watching ridiculously long video essays about movies, but almost never watch directors commentaries. Not sure why, probably availability.

Also I heightened the phrasing for comedic purposes ;)

    I think for me the difference is that Hbomberguy wrote a script and talked for as long as it took to film it, or whatever, while the commentary on a film lasts as long as the film, plus or minus a bit. I don’t much enjoy just watching someone’s basically reaction video to the film
