>>31001998I wouldn't say watchalongs are the same as reacting to react videos. Sure, they both involve watching someone watch something, but with watchalongs people can give options and have thoughts about what they're watching beyond just laughing at stupid shit.
Would you call the Stars doing watchalongs of the 1st Act and giving commentary about behind the scene stuff as the same as watching TikTok Compilations #69?
Obviously they're not the most high effort content, but not everything has to be, and watching a movie with your oshi is fun (even if the movie is shit at times).
