-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRANSCRIPT:

Hi everyone! Here is a very important update to this little community of ours that we think you will all enjoy! From this day onwards, every movie and show we watch, in addition to the YT edit and Patreon version, we will also provide a third version that does not cover up what we’re reacting to! That means you will no longer need to provide your own version to sync if you dont want to! 

Of course, you still can use your own copy to sync if you want to be able to control the volume of the movie and our reaction independently. We arrived at this decision after speaking with a bunch of other bigger creators, Patreon terms and service support, and getting independent legal counsel, we are now confident that our content falls well within the protection of fair use as commentary. As our commentary is always consistently there throughout the entire show or movie. In addition to providing this third version to all new content, we will also be retroactively going back to providing a third version to all our older content, starting with tv shows. But it is important to remember that this wont be something happening overnight, its a lot of content to acquire, edit, export and upload and it will take a very long time. So if you are waiting for a specific movie or show to get its third version, please be patient. This also means that over the next several months, you will receive notifications of large amount of uploads occurring at once from time to time. This will be us uploading third versions of older content as they finish being processed, sadly the notification of new posts is automatic and we have no way to turn that off, so bear with us as we go through our entire catalogue.

Nonetheless, we hope this big update and endeavor is good news for all of you as both money and time saving. And again, we will also continue to provide the traditional version should you want to sync you own copy instead, so that you can control the volume independently. And of course, we still strongly recommend you all to rent or buy the movies and shows you truly enjoyed! 

And thats it! Thank you all for your support and see you in the next reaction!

100% the reason I finally joined. Thank you!

Justus Brazelton

Hi Darren, thank you for the support! So in the description of every post you will see a "For no sync version" followed by a url. If you are on desktop computer, click on that URL and press Accept when it asks to verify your account, after that you will see the uncovered version of the reaction. If you are on phone or tablet, hold down the url until a little menu pops up and press "Open in Web browser". your default internet browser should now open and it may ask you to login to patreon first, make sure you login via the correct account/email, then accept the verification and voila! Note, some users have stated that safari and chrome could occasionally cause verification issues, the best browser so far for this has been Firefox. You can also take a look at our FAQ: https://www.patreon.com/posts/faq-uncovered-131542916 for any trouble shooting, and a big list of all the movies thats been converted so far (all tv shows are done, but theres still a couple hundred films left to be processed into these new versions). If theres any other problems the FAQ didnt answer, feel free to go to the Community tab on the left side and either directly message us or use the community chat to ask the community for help!

George Simone

New to the Cinebinge, but decided to go for Extra Cream Cheese Frosting after watching a few reactions. As a newbie…how do I access these?

Darren Harrison

should be there now if you refresh the page on either patreon version or youtube version post. there wont be a post for uncovered, it will be a link in the description of the other versions posts.

George Simone

I may be blind, but I am not seeing either a separate post for the uncovered version of Hot Tub Time Machine, nor am I seeing a link in the patreon version post.

Senec

Hi Alex, please refer to the new post. https://www.patreon.com/posts/uncovered-update-131341287?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_fan&utm_content=web_share

George Simone

was just watching gladiator uncovered version which has now disappeared. coming back i hope :)

Alex Hyrule

They will still post those as well.

Ginger

does this mean you won't be posting the full versions of movies where you will require the members' own copy? My copies of movies are much better and full screen. I don't have to share the screen with your reaction screen.

David Martin

This is so fucking huge!!! Thanks y’all. I’m here with you now hopefully for the long haul! I love not having to sync and I can screencast it to my tv. Y’all are the bomb! Thanks you.

Jason Parker

Would you guys consider watching Andor after you're done with this season of Severance? It's 2 seasons, 24 episodes long in total, just finished up and pretty perfect length for one of these in between shows you do while watching a longer show. It's also easily the best Star Wars project since the original trilogy.

ShadowStunts

ME TOO!!! 1st ever patreon for me.

AC10

oh no no haha. i backdate them when theyre uploaded so it doesnt clog the front feed.

George Simone

HOLY FU#$!!!!! I don't think people realize how many "uncovered" videos are ALREADY UPLOADED!!!! Maybe they need to release a weekly update list of what is now available.... I've been waiting for The Martian movie they did a long time ago.... IT'S BEEN UPLOADED FOR WEEKS!!!

AC10

Hello Cinebinge, So far I have watched the uncovered versions of Jurassic Park and The Princess Bride. The volume of the movie in Jur. Park was way too low. It was perfect in Princess bride. Hope that helps for the future uncovered versions. But what a great update this is. Much appreciated.

Eik104

Next month I'm hoping to jump up a tier. This is awesome.

Bookwormy

So now I no longer need my own copy of the movies and TV shows, I finally decided to re-upgrade my membership to just below the top tier. Seems fitting given yours was the first reaction channel I ever subscribed to on YouTube.

Marcus Hicks

OK, now I'm getting some true value-tainment with my patreonage, so next month, I finally go top-tier! So George, it's pronounced just like Gandalf with an R. It's the grandpa name that my granddaughters call me! In all seriousness, thank you for this, it is much appreciated!

Grandalf

? works fine for me. i would imagine the comments would be filled with ppl saying its not working if something actually went wrong. so its probably just your browser. try clearing your cache or updating the browser.

robodong

Hey guys, I don't know if it's just technical issues with the uncovered video reactions or if it's Patreon trying to shut them down. None of the videos are working, just the audio. They were working perfectly the day before.

Stanley Etienne

Whenever you can, take a look at American History X, 1917, Spider-Man (2002) it looks like they were skipped. Spiderman2 and No way Home are uncovered, but the original isn't?

Richard

will fix as soon as i can.

George Simone

George was working and researching on this for a while and withheld this information so that , very shortly after announcing, he would just unleash all of this devastation so rapidly. 😂

Lazy Boy Stays Up Late Watching Video Tapes

no subtitles on the inglorious upload :(

scwyd

How the actual heck did you guys manage to re-render and reupload your whole history this quickly?

dys

So much good stuff. Thanks for The Martian, I had trouble finding the version you watched (theatrical cut).

Tom Hess

Thanks for all the work you put into this.

Freddy Cougar

Are you guys able to promote this on youtube so that others know to drive more to patreon?

Sean Hennessy

Just wanted to say "Thank you!" again for all this much and hard work you do. 👍

howtocookazombie (Stan)

Thanks for this new list. Maybe you didn't know, maybe you did, but this new format solves a very annoying problem with older movies: The ntsc/pal framerate desinc. Due to NTSC and PAL having different frame rates AND movies being dubbed, older movies are often not available in the original lenght even if you watch them in the english original. It's likely a niche problem because it onbly applies to countrys that had PAL and wth a big enough domestic market to make dubbing worth the costs. But it is realy annoying. One example is First Blood. And then theres the thing with streaming services only offering one version of a movie (theatrical cut, directors cut, extrended cut, digital remastered, whatever they are called) and your service happened to offer you another. So yes, as others said thanks for this update. And btw: George you're putting in quite some extra hours for this right now it seems? Thank you!

Dioskur

Just wow. Thank you so much for the huge work and all the content. Over the years and now with this incredible turn

Guillaume Huet_rennibou

Thank you for all the hard work on getting these out.

Chris Brewer

George! With the new uncovered versions, as happy as I was, I though it'd be new content. I'd never expect you to go back and re-export everything. So much work. That said, I'm staying subscribed full-time and going back to watch some older reactions to my faves again.

Chris B

🙇‍♂️

George Simone

fixed

George Simone

unfortunately no. the ones that were taken down by YT are perma gone. by the time YT took them down the raw footage had been long deleted back when storage space was limited and knowledge of how YT bots work was even more so.

George Simone

nope sorry thats an error, i was going by the 'whats published on yt' list not what's uploaded list. that full length is perma gone.

George Simone

Will just echo the same thing but crazy amount of work going into this George. Stay well rested in between and I hope the computer gets a promotion… or a tasty upgrade of some sort as a reward haha. Mad respect, legend 🤙🏻

JakeyShakeyBakeyBoy

Nice now I don't have to worry with my copy freezing all the time

Allan Molina

Hey George, will you do the movies that you had to take down due to copyright strikes too?

Drew Acheson

Wait… Matrix??? Does this mean you can restore the original Patreon version too? And can we get the rest of the series?

djKENTO

Idk if it’s been pointed out yet but the uncovered version for Shang chi was still the old Patreon version.

JoshG

This is amazing. All the faffing about with the speed of my UK copy vs the online / NTSC version you may be watching goes away. Fantastic. And totally appreciate the effort of doing it for the back catalogue. Will still do side by side for newer titles, but for well worn classics, brilliant.

Ned Warbone

I'm sure the work has been outsourced to a content mill somewhere.

Dirt_Merchant

I'm actually amazed at how fast this is going. It seems like it would be an immense amount of mind-numbing labor to retroactively cover years of content. 5 days a week, x 50 weeks x 4 years? = 1000 videos? Or more?

Cc Decc

oh damn it.

George Simone

You may want to review the Schindler's List uncovered, it's still covered.

Richard

Exciting! For movies are yall going newest to oldest or oldest to newest?

Dustin Duvall

I believe those are long gone unfortunately.

Eric Mc Daniel

Apologies if this has already been asked/addressed but does this open the door to getting older removed/copyright struck content back? For example movies like The Lion King which have long been unavailable for anyone who joined after the fact.

Crazykirsch

Thank you for making this retroactive. It’s clearly a huge effort, but it is very appreciated.

So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish

Thanks for the great work George!

PeppermintWizardOfAus

Another way to CineBinge...

James Falato

If you have a streaming or Chromecast or something you should be able to cast the Patreon video to it. It works with my Apple TV.

REDR58

We appreciate this, at least I do.

Wes Stevens

Now if only my TV had a Patreon app . . .

Rooster Aleution

Sounds good, I was a little worried from the title that the versions where you sync your own copy are were going away. This does help me when you watch some slightly different cut that is unobtainable and different from the version I own.

Brian's Dog

Great job, G & S. I know that's a lot of work! :)

Texas J

Sounds good, one less thing to deal with

Athenor

That is impressive amount of work in a short time! Kudos to you 🥳🔥😈

Sergei Tereshkin

You guys are the best!

laluneodyssee

Awesome 🙏🏻

Josip Buretić

OH cool...Firefly! Shiny!

TomGas2025

yeah it does seem to be a major weakness with this player.. we're working on a better solution. dont have an ETA yet, but we're looking into it.

George Simone

it now has a soft limit of hours of video, rather than data size. and that you can just request more.

George Simone

Doesn't Patreon have Storage limits? How does that work?

Lazy Boy Stays Up Late Watching Video Tapes

I'm really enjoying the uncovered versions, thanks very much. Great to be able to pause without the hassle of resyncing. Looking a gift horse in the mouth though, Patreon seems determined to show me the videos in low resolution. Has anyone found a more sophisticated approach than refreshing to reset to 1080p? I don't mind about the movies, but I insist on George being in HD.

Tall Paul

Speaking of copy, I hope George and Simone react someday to that 1992 anti-computer piracy video called "Don't Copy That Floppy."

Deadly Ramon

feature products are basically ways for people to just buy access to specific collections with a one time purchase, rather than a subscription. they will be able to access everything inside that collection and thats it. new posts of any kind are not accessible for them unless its specifically added to that collection.

George Simone

Does anyone know why Patreon shows "Featured Products" with differing price points, but it's just their different collections of TV shows?

Logan Nelson

Did they ever end up watching Legend of Korra?

UnlicensedOkie

I'll second this just because sometimes the audio is a bit low on the video and the auto generated ones aren't the best. Just if it's possible. I already appreciate getting the full version.

Jpsynergy

This is already a lot of work, but I want to ask if its possible to have subtitles on the uncovered versions?

David Bencze

This is good but feels a bit risky. Also there is a big risk of studios not liking it so they might start to be even more strict with reaction videos on Youtube.

Marko T.

Thanks you so much for this! I resubscribed and will continue to stay subscribed because of it. As someone who loves to listen along to this style of watch along while I am outdoor in my garden and doing other things this is a game changer. Asia and Bj do this and it made me subscribe to their Patreon. I love your guys content but I can’t always be around to link up to another device to watch along. This format is my preferred way to watch movies with you guys especially if it’s a movie I’ve seen many times. Keep up the great content you two! Thanks again!

MaggiLou152

Hi Tony, so if you click on Cinebinge on the left side of your page and go to our main feed, at the very top you will see a tab that says "Collections". in there you will find every show grouped into its own collection containing all the versions. Beneath all the collections, you will see a large field of tags, each representing 1 film/franchise. Click on any of the tags and it will show you all posts related to that tag. Though for now movies dont have the uncovered versions yet.

George Simone

This is the best news ever and I just resubscribed because of it! I hope you will put them in a collection folder to separate them out from the rest, because Patreon makes it so difficult to find anything “at a glance.” Labeling or tagging them as a category would make them much easier to locate. This is awesome news. You guys are fun to watch and you seem like really good peeps, so I’m super excited for this development that will make viewing much easier and enjoyable. Thank you!

Todd Rush

Time for me to rewatch Firefly and Chernobyl with you guys :-) I was too lazy to redownload the whole shows again.

Tom Hess

As soon as it gets done, I’m going on a Ted lasso binge

JoshG

I can't press the heart button any harder on this post!

Jay Davis

Chernobyl, Band of Brothers, and Fallout. well thats my week sorted.

Forkbeard83

Thank you! I don't have a lot of bandwidth, so your review and Severance both running online at the same time wasn't really happening.

Matt Quinn

Hi, as stated in the update S2 and 3 have been updated. S1 unfortunately has been long lost as it was content we did at the start of the channel and we did not understand the rules of uploading to YT and the content is lost forever.

George Simone

Any chance we could get avatar the last airbender (all three seasons) ?

UnlicensedOkie

Thank you for doing this! it has been nice having an excuse to rewatch full length videos. I have been downloading the uncovered versions for my commute.

Carlos Hurtado

Is there a chance you guys would ever put up X Files for a vote?

Alex Heise

yep, we'll be going through every show we've ever done.

George Simone

I know it's old but is it possible for The Wire to be be uncovered as well. I just made it to Season 3 and there's no more YT versions for that so uncovered would be a good alternative.

Tricky Smitles

Oh wow, I had no idea - honestly, thanks for the tip! <3

Ginger

just forgot to make it, but its there now

George Simone

Why isn't there a collection for Band of Brothers?

Adam

as stated in the video and in the transcript, we are keeping all previous version and will continue to provide versions as we have before, the uncovered one is just an additional version. is there a specific film or show where you are not finding the patreon version?

George Simone

Were you not keeping the Patreon versions in addition to the YT and the Uncovered ones? Looking at the collections it appears you've replaced the Patreon versions with the Uncovered ones.

Kellen

FIRST BLOOD!!! For all the hassle YouTube has put you through with editing and us, the viewers, not being able to watch your reactions (without a copy).

Mr Mafuchi

I think you guys would love Murderbot--it's on AppleTV right now. It deserves way more attention than it's getting.

Mitch M

This is great folks! Looks like there is some throttling of notifications at Patreon's end - I got emails telling me about the Breaking Bad S1 and Better Call Saul S5 (and a random S2 episode) releases, when in reality you'd added uncovered versions of the entirety of those shows, and I didn't hear anything from Patreon about Squid Game until you mentioned it in the text for this post. Whilst reluctant to add to your workload even more, might be worth tagging onto the end of the "next week on Patreon" a summary of what uncovereds got added in the previous week?

Graeme McCutcheon

Two cat treats when they have to do extra sync QC to make sure Simone's singing lines up with the movie

W T

Yeah, rare to find or extended/theatrical versions are a perfect example of why this should be fair game in the first place. Seriously fuck labels and studios gatekeeping essential cultural relics, just a weird form of hostage taking.

W T

George, you are the Hardest Working Man in the react business

JD Nevesytrof

FUUUUUUUUUCK YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS!!

Duron Ball

Y’all are the best!!!

Brian Sittler

Doin the lords work 🙌🏻

Charlie Keeler

Ok, I give up. Why is there no Search option under a creator's page in Portrait mode? When I flip my phone to Landscape mode, the Search bar appears.

Jacob Colson

This Is awesome to hear, I like to listen to the people I'm subscribed to at work if I've already seen what they're reacting to but that doesn't work if I can't hear the movie/show as well. Thank you!

ShittyShittyGameGang

This is amazing news. I love your reactions but I watch them usually while I’m working from home and it really is more convenient to have a set it and forget it type of situation. The time I have to spend syncing episodes if I wanna watch let’s say a marathon of your TOS reactions can get annoying lol. I was never going to complain about it but hearing this makes me so happy

John Welch

Great news! Please watch Andor, thank you.

Senjak

Awesome

Josip Buretić

Uncovered means the movie/show is no longer blurred on Patreon, and you don't need your copy to sync and watch along.

Ferdinand Tayo

As usual just want to say big kudos, well done and 👊 for the massive editing undertaking you’re doing for a catalogue this size. Hope you’re getting good sessions of gaming and life in between dudes

JakeyShakeyBakeyBoy

As I am writing this (26/5) I just received this notification for this vid. I have been fucking confused about what the hell uncovered means! Love you guys! 😀

Robban6948

Love it

KennedysOpenMind

The first amendment doesn't come into play on private platforms like YouTube. Not to mention the fact that YouTube reserves the right to terminate accounts for any reason or no reason at all in their TOS.

E G

Oh, does this mean that from a legal standpoint, YouTube has been stomping their giant robot feet on our First Amendment rights all this time, and we now have a legal basis to sue? Huh, interesting.

I've Pulled Cats Out Of Fish

Wait, you've got a bear with you?!? Just when I thought you guys couldn't get any more Canadian.

KL

I hope you do this for City of God. I had a hard time finding a decent version to watch along with subtitles and no ads, paid or otherwise.

erosennin

This is great news. Especially for all those movies that have a ton of different versions with miniscule changes where you're getting desynced every couple minutes for no good reason other than a single shot lingered a few seconds longer. Overall I don't mind using my own version, but for some movies it's a real hassle.

erosennin

Hey guys, first time commenter here, I love that we'll now be getting uncovered version of everything. If its ok I would like to make one suggestion, I believe George is the main editor of the vids (love the edits) but I would recommend looking into audio ducking, especially for the uncovered vids. Its sometimes difficult to hear you guys speak over the movie or show audio, with audio ducking it would lower the audio of whatever we are watching whenever you guys speak, just so it makes it easier to hear you. I would prefer to be able to hear your commentary over show audio.

Sammartz81

Cool Beans, that’s awesome.

The Unknown Cinephile

and Abyss

E. D.

It's definitely making life easier for Europeans like me who have many things on PAL DVDs.

Ginger

I don't know if you're interested in recommendations but I'd suggest doing Hero and the original Nosferatu early, as many people had problems getting the versions you watched. :) <3

Ginger

That is going to be a lot of work. You guys need an intern. You could pay them in leftover pizza and Cinebinge gear, and throw them the occasional cat treat if they were doing a good job.

Cc Decc

This is awesome. No more having to occasionally pay more on top of all the subscriptions I already have to hang with my favorite reactors in full. I just watch the Severance 2 reaction and it was perfect. I am also looking forward to the older catalogue being updated with this option too. Some of the previous reactions I've considered rewatching but the hassle of finding the original content again and dealing with the sync...

ManuG20dt3

I hope you do this for Band of Brothers, too.

Adam

Let me put it this way: I have had no problem at all with renting or buying films to watch along with you guys 2 to 3 times a week because your entertainment value is 100% worth it. That said I greatly appreciate the money this will save. You guys are the best!

Grandalf

This makes it a lot easier to watch your full length reactions on the go - thank you!

John Hennessy

I didn't even realize this was an issue for some - especially the bandwidth thing, since I usually only watch along if I have a physical copy of the film in my extended collection. Glad there's an option for those who need it. You guys are continuously going above and beyond.

FrancescoTakesItEasy

Also, great job on getting so many "uncovered" versions up so quickly! Thank you!

sarCC

This is awesome!! There's been so many times where I've synced some movie up with you guys and then my version has a different framerate than your video and then I get disappointed that it can't be done 😐

Mark Polo

Ah, that's the word I was looking for. Ducking. Yeah they need to use ducking. I've listened to 2 or 3 "uncovered" versions so far and when the film gets loud you can't hear them.

Tom Hess

Or maybe THEY just keep DOING what they've BEEN doing successfully for YEARS

Ph4ZeD

It usually takes me about an hour to put together your patreon only version with my version and export the result, with balanced audio complete with Ducking. Premiere Pro Thing which, George if you haven't used you should. Ducking automatically lowers the audio of one track when another track comes up - so if you or Simone start talking it drops it by -4dB. I have *252* films, Fallout and Chernobyl. If you want to save yourself some time hit me up and I'll send you a sampler. ;)

Tinfoilnation

Excellent- since Simone is an actress and George is a videographer- may I suggest that FUTURE reactions ADD more comments on lighting, camera angles, acting choices etc. Many movie reaction channels- NOT yours- are pretty facile with "that was cool" or just emotional reactions to the content. If you reacted to the CRAFT I think you would set yourselves worlds apart and possibly protect yourself even more since the commentary would be more critique on style and approach on top of just enjoying the movie. I follow several other movie channels where the creators were film majors or cinematographers and add that nuance

Actuarial Lurker

Love the convenience of this. I already have all the main streaming platforms and I won't be getting rid of them. I'll also continue to rent the rare movie that I don't already have so no change to supporting the original content creator. It will be nice to not have to sync, not have to pause two videos as quickly a possible etc. So happy. Thanks.

GoodManTheDan

Yay! I saw 25 notifications and I thought something had gone down.

megamoo chilli

Simone's cat better still be visible 😳

Lazy Boy Stays Up Late Watching Video Tapes

Glad there will be options, Mux player I don't like for sync as it gets overloaded around 40mins prior to needing to refresh the browser. But I suppose, no sync, no problem.

Lazy Boy Stays Up Late Watching Video Tapes

Whoops, I got my question answered in an old Season 2 episode, release order which is what I meant, not chronological order. Great!

JD Nevesytrof

Shpadoinkle!

Jacob Colson

This is a big question!

Logan Kerlee

Oh, that's jolly good tidings! I've already gone through several of your uncovered postings, and really enjoyed stuff that I had no chance of finding, or didn't want to buy, as I knew nothing about it. Thank you guys so much!

Mark Alex Leach

Right, yeah. I've watched nearly EVERYTHING that they've reacted to but there are one or two that slid by me because I was unable to watch. Stoked that this change is happening. :)

Logan Kerlee

I'm a bit confused by this as well - but hey, if it works out - awesome! If not - we've got the original way to fall back on.

Logan Kerlee

I'd be down for either but I'd more be for Freaks and Geeks. :)

Logan Kerlee

Big yup on this! Important to keep the old versions just in case something goes down later. :)

Logan Kerlee

This is fantastic news!! I big like this! :) It'll make things so much easier and use up less bandwidth while watching - I'm most stoked about that, as syncing things up has become the norm for me. :)

Logan Kerlee

was this suppose to be a "gotcha"? we're well aware of their existence and has never tried to stop them. we figured anyone who feels that we're worth supporting will do so and thats good enough for us.

George Simone

brce

Awesome I’m subbed to Asia and BJ too and they also do it uncovered they just host on Vimeo and not YouTube. Now I can watch on my tv via my phone awesome news.

Jon Parada

I hope it works! It would be amazing!! But keep the old versions until we know it works!

Swede for the table

Yeah I posted a link in this comment thread where Greg specifically says they don't do this because it's illegal. And they have 1 million + subscribers. I've asked who they talked to and what legal guidance they got saying this was okay, but haven't seen an answer. I can't see how this is legal at all. And when the big channels aren't doing it for legality reasons, you have to wonder

Tay Schumaker

Great news. There are a few I'd like to watch with you two but just can't afford to purchase, rent or stream. I've actually subscribed to a few streaming services just to watch some of them lol. That being said, ditto, everyone should support the original content whenever you can.

Kyle Liquori

Full-length movies and shows - count me in! I hope for the best - I really, really do, but I cant see this holding up in court. You would essentially become a new streaming service. Why would I subscribe to Netflix or Prime or even go to the theaters anymore if I could just watch full-length movies and shows on cinebbinge, mary cherry or dashaTV (mmmm….dasha) - or any of the other hundred reaction channels that would pop up. What happens if I start showing “Cinebinge Films” at work or in a bar or a gym? Oh and just wait until Magic Magy and her OnlyFans homies get wind of this - if neo-erotic cosplay interpretive dance isn’t “additional commentary” - I don’t know what is. Of course the lawyers are going to say “Sure, go ahead” - Saul Goodman style - there’s no consequences if they’re wrong - except more billable hours. And unless you have something in writing from Patreon - this would put them head-to-head with the entire Entertainment Industry - let’s see how long their loyalty will last. Not as loyal as the Crew of the Starship Enterprise I would think! I watch cinebinge when i come home to SEVER my connection with work. But if people start streaming full audiobooks and music or “reacting” to full-semester college course material - why I’d be on Patreon all day!

Dana Wayne

This is a great option because some movies I just can't get my hand on for whatever reason!

ArchjSM

Insane announcement, hope it doesn't get you in trouble. I prefer to watch separately on another screen but there are times when you watch a slightly different version I can't find and it's super annoying for something I really want to watch.

Ph4ZeD

I mean, this is cool. But are you guys sure about this? I'm no copyright expert but this seems like some kind of legal limbo to me. *edit*: I hadn't watched the video when I typed the initial msg. So I guess you did your due diligence.

24fps_

So I have no doubt this has been asked many times before and I apologize, but I'm assuming Trek will be done in interlaced chronological order, so that TNG will begin after Star Trek IV, and then Star Trek V will be done after TNG S2E19, etc?

JD Nevesytrof

In the intro of every ''Reel Rejects'' video,when they are discussing syncing up,they specifically say ''We can't show you the full movie,as that would be illegal'' Blind Wave also follow the same strategy as Reel Rejects. and you would assume that they would know more than anyone,so just be careful guys,hope you have done the proper research and good luck with it.

Andrew

I'm watching The Last of Us on NowTV and the sync is always a b**** so this might be a blessing. Will have to try it out.

Odd Thomas

to celebrate you should watch through a single season masterpiece like Freaks and Geeks or Westworld!

Dan Holmes

My employer doesn't thank you for this change :) BUT I DO!

802jay

Ooh, I hadn't thought of that. There are maybe 2 I never watched, because I simply couldn't track down a copy anywhere.

Gary Fixler

YES! It gets better and better. 🕺🍿

howtocookazombie (Stan)

do you mean a collection that comprises of every "uncovered" version? if so, there now exists a tag called "uncovered version" that does exactly that. but for movies specifically, you can also check by scrolling down to the bottom of the collection page where all the tags are listed, and you can see that all movies have a number 2 next to them right now, that means theres 2 versions to each tag, a YT cut and a Patreon version. when the Uncovered version is added, it will become a 3. for tv shows, it will be a bit trickier so the current plan is to just make an announcement every time a show has been fully processed. Alternatively, we can also just make a post once a month that lists out every show and movie thats been processed that month.

George Simone

I know it would be extra work, but would it be possible to add these to their own collection so we know what older content doesn't have it yet?

Charles

I'll still get my own copies because I like to get the best quality possible but for the rare occurrence where my version isn't the same as yours it's great news 👍

Alexrandom

Who has two thumbs and luvs this update. ?? This Guy!! Also, as an aside, I was getting the ton of notification that George mentions and was like WTF. Again, love this update. Thanks George and Simone for all you do.

Danny Bryant

the post straight up tells you in writing and in the video.. "In addition to providing this third version to all new content, we will also be retroactively going back to providing a third version to all our older content, starting with tv shows. "

BeninLabour

As a Luddite, I never managed to accurately sync my copy with your commentary, so I'm so thrilled you're offering this! I know this may entail a lot of work but are there any plans to roll this out to previous reactions or is it a going forward only plan?

Simon Clifton

Love it. I hope this works out.

Alex Laime

This seems highly illegal lmao but not my issue, I'll just enjoy lol

dieselbeast

This is actually huge and i didnt even know it was possible, i have not seen anyone else i follow do this (yet) so hopefully they will also follow suit. There have been more than a few reactions i couldnt watch because i just cannot find that version of the movie you're watching, so this is a big game changer.

Jasbro

Aaaahhhhmazing!! Especially great for those of us not living in the US and do not want to use a vpn. There are a ton of film reactions I have seen yet because of this. Thank you both sooo much for daring to try this and for all of your hard work implementing this change and for all of your hard work in general keeping us entertained by being yourselves in front of the camera. You guys are the best

Bbb K

This is so awesome. You guys are the best :D

Shibby

I really hope you're gonna be safe with this and not get into legal trouble. But apart from that this is awesome especially for some of the movies that are straight up impossible to find in the version you watched so I'm looking forward to finally be able to watch those :) Thank you for the insane amount of work to reupload everything with another version!

MasterElodin

Thanks for doing this. Just became a member because u did this.

Perry Campbell

Hi, this is great news, i love it. As a non-native speaker, sometimes i sync with a version with english subtitles. If there is a easy way to add to this versions the option for the subtitles it would be great, please consider it. Otherwise no problem, i will continue to sync with my own version:

Fabio Scuderi

Awesome news! I did wonder when I opened my updates on my inbox and it was a wall of Cinebinge :D Exciting stuff! I often like to have you on one screen and the movie on another, but for things I am re-watching this will be so awesome! Keep up being brilliantly entertaining <3

James Lawson

This is good news, I hope it won't cause any problems. There were so many old uploads of stuff I wan't to rewatch with you guys, but the syncing was always a hassle. Looking forward to being notification-bombed!

Grobutnorg

I love it. I will still use the two-videos method for things I'm more invested in, because of the audio thing (sometimes I have to rewind and mute you guys to hear some dialogue, and sometimes I have to mute some explosions to hear what you're saying), but also so I can full screen parts of things I want to see better. But then other times I just I don't want to bother with managing two videos, because I'm not that into a particular movie, but still want to watch, partly for completionism's sake, and partly for all the juicy George and Simone lore spread throughout every reaction, but it's tedious when my internet causes one to pause and go out of sync, etc. Nice to have this handy second option!

Gary Fixler

This seems too good to be true, so I am anticipating developments. A significant criteria for fair use aside from whether the work is transformative, is whether it serves as a market substitute; that is, can a person substitute the genuine copyrighted works with the reaction versions as a means of outright consuming the media. Also we all know that just because a works may fall well and clearly within fair use and the law, YouTube and other hosts do not operate to the same interpretation of the law, often siding with media companies. Companies who are well known to weaponize the law to their own end, who have teams of lawyers on retainer who can make life difficult not just for individuals, but even Patreon such as filing complaints with payment processors that Patreon depend on. I can see that you're not using YouTube for the Uncovered version which is good, but that means any battle will be held between the lawyers of Patreon and the copyright holders on probably a video to video basis. Here's hoping and praying this goes well and Patreon are able to stand their ground without needing lawyers, although some new and strong case law would be nice too!

BangDroid

Interesting. So no more hosting full length watch-alongs on youtube? Gotta say I love that! Any move away from YT is a step in the right direction.

8bitAndy

Yeah, I agreed with you when I first listened to their video. I'm an attorney and my first reaction to their post was that they need to get a better attorney. But then I thought about how they're going about it. While they are opening themselves up to some risk, they probably aren't in much more danger of losing their YouTube channel because they're hosting the uncovered versions on Patreon's video service, not YouTube. It's also behind a paywall, so the studios copyright bots might not necessarily be able to detect it as they normally would. Also, Patreon doesn't seem to have a three strikes and your channel is gone policy. Even if the studio does some kind of manual DMCA claim on the patreon, the Youtube shouldn't be affected by that. Patreon might just tell them to take down those offending videos. While I think its inevitable that Patreon will eventually get sued by studios for allowing this and that will lead to an inevitable policy change, until then we should just enjoy this. But I think George and Simone will largely be fine while enjoying a subscriber boost in the meantime.

Ryan Johnson

I've been nothing less than surprised at how many more content creators I've seen uploading reactions with the full film included, especially when I've heard things about channels being shut down for doing exactly that (though it does raise into question what the specifics were of the channels that have been shut down). Up until now, I've assumed it was an incredibly risky move, since I can definitely understand the movie studio's viewpoint of, you are essentially redistributing their movie in a sense, even if it is slightly altered. It means people literally don't have to pay for or own the movie that they are literally watching via your channel/reaction - And this isn't like a let's play where they aren't really experiencing the joy of playing the game themselves, Watching a movie with someone else's commentary over can still provide more or less the same experience as watching the film without the commentary. That said, I know how seriously y'all take this channel/career choice of yours, and you have clearly done more than a respectable amount of research on the matter - and I know you wouldn't have come to the conclusion to do this if you weren't absolutely confident that you weren't doing anything wrong in doing so. I still think the more creators do this, it's probably only a matter of time before movie studios try to take some kind of action, and there might be some sort of legit legal debate we might see stem from all this.....but at the end of the day, as long as you know your channel and operations won't be compromised, even if accommodating adjustments have to be made in the future as things unfold, that's what really matters. But I know you're too smart to put everything on the line over a bit of convenience for us as viewers, so your confidence in the matter is honestly very eye opening to me.

Turnt SNACO

S&G, will you be able to keep up with the comments with some many different versions of each upload?

Young Blood Priest

I'm so glad. I've seen other creators on Patreon watch full shows and films without needing to synch up so woohoo!

TheYo Show

This sounds impossible? But cool I’m onboard for as long as it lasts

Dan Holmes

Will we get the A24 movies back?

Dan Holmes

great to hear (or read :c) )!

Klopirat

Ooh "uncovered"

MD Simmons

Seems a bit risky to me, but this will certainly be nice when there are several versions of a movie and you're watching one that is hard to get hold of.

Opti_Frog

Thats great news and i hope it will always be a third option. Giving us the option of still synching our own copy for volume reasons or because we might need subtitles for the movie is a really great move. (also the patreon vidoe player is kinda shit sometimes)

ExquisiteCapybara

Thats crazzzzy, thank you ❤️ I looked at my mails in the morning and there where like 10 Patreon mails, and I thought, well again something fucked up. Than I realized the update post and where blown away🫶. There are a bunch of movies I had to search for a copy or go to 5 streaming services, using VPN‘s until I found the movies and now they are all there 🤗. Thanks a lot thats really a huge service!

Florian Geyer

All I ask is that you listen to the majority of feedback. You might get people not liking how you do this change, but I guess we can't know until we see it.

YukoValis

Cool. It will be nice to watch your vids directly without prep. And it will be easier to watch on the go. I never really had an issue syncing up. I guess i got so use to the process. i have been watching react content since the Game of thrones Red wedding, days.

Carlos Hurtado

Absolutely YES. To be honest I tend to stay a patreon of creators who do an uncovered version for a lot longer. It just makes things a lot easier without syncing (which sometimes is a b..ch due to different versions on different streaming sites etc. and you end up re-syncing during the watch). This is awesome news.

Chris B

Android Night Punch

Ben Stevens

I just cancelled my Patreon , i will re subscribe , ty guys this is amazing news

Joel Flores

Awesome

Joel Flores

LOVE this. I usually skip the full-length ones just because it's a hassle to get 'em synced then do it again every time I have to pause.

TheNeonRabbit

That's VERY surprising. But awesome if true.

Tucci

Nice!

Scoobay

I support this fully as long as you don't get stung. You guys and Mr. Video have always been my favorite reactors, and he's always been my favorite "I just need something to put on" guy because I don't have to put in any effort finding a source or syncing up or anything.

p0sthum4n

Pretty worried about this to be honest. Hope it works out.

Dragonhunter

Anyone remember the name of that school project film, or maybe it was just a indie short film Simone was in.. She played an A.I. robot or something I think.. some of the best most awkward stuff.. looked for it under the collections tab, but couldn't find it.. maybe doing a title search it'll pop up..

PastaDon

uncovered videos: I have to agree with some of the concerns that others have with this. I hope it works out well for you, but I'd recommend at least creating and publishing the blurred version as well just in case you have to reverse course down the road. Also, maybe make a spreadsheet with links to the uncovered videos so that you can more easily take them down later if needed. On the plus side, on the rare occasion when you react to a video which is a version which I don't have, this definitely helps.

Ron

3:16 S: "We hope that this little video isn't super obnoxious." G: "Yeah, we'll include the whole transcript ... in case you don't want to watch." A good thing too! I'm only interested in the actual content, not in watching you two yammering away!!! ... ... ... Waitaminute... :-) Thanks for the initiative, and I hope this all goes smoothly.

Happy Hanukkah

I don’t think I’m exaggerating when I say that this is the best announcement in the history of mankind

Daniel Bjork

Wow after reading the comments, didn't realize how many people watch on their phones.. not me, can't see shit on that thing.. I wait to watch on my 55' at home, can see Simone's nose hairs and everything.... 🤨 For real tho, appreciate the work you guys put in, very exciting news, well worth the price of admission!

PastaDon

Congrats, that’s big news!

A Möbius strip is a non-orientable surface

This is great!!!

Eric Haines

Wow, I love this new feature, and am quite pleasantly surprised that it's legal. My wifi signal is pretty spotty, so not having to stream two separate videos simultaneously should make for a smoother experience. Thanks for implementing this and for pledging to apply this retroactively to your vast catalog!

Deadly Ramon

I agree, when they did Child's Play, I had my DVD ready to go, but their copy in the background wasn't timed similarly to mine. Made it very difficult to watch

Eric Mc Daniel

Lmao same. Seeing all the notifications, I was like "Oh god, what did I say now" This is a super cool change/addition! Will definitely make things easier when there are multiple versions, sometimes with only minute differences. No more syncing problems!

Astraeos

Always thought that having this all in one is the way to go. I’m a big believer in KISS, Keep It Simple Stupid. Thanks guys.

Kim

I was scared when I got 20 emails in a minute. Am I being cyber bullied?!? This is great. I’m looking forward to watching the things I couldn’t previously because of regional differences or lack of availability. So much more Simone and George to enjoy.

Jared Winn

Thank you. Very nice addition to your content. Lots of work and thank you for doing that for all of us.

Pat Poling

it already is the norm. more channels do this than dont.

BeninLabour

NGL that sound dangerous, copyright wise, as a lot of channels who do this are smaller than you, anyway I don't care for this, if you keep giving us the way you did before I am happy. I just hope you will upload these on a different channel( or patron only) to protect ur main channel. Anyway good luck with this as long as we get the normal muted reactions and it doesn't cause problems to you guys, I don't mind.

samuel Jakob

I'm a traditional watcher, still like to sync my movie. But this will help with some of the movies, where I can't find the right version or in some cases the version isn't running at the same speed.

RLYtoxic

Look, I understand that my opinion isn't really that important, I'm just one of many and there are going to be lots of different opinions, but personally I think this is a really bad idea and I do not understand what the appeal is for creators. One of the main arguments as to why studios should get behind reaction content instead of fighting it is because it encourages people to get their own copy. I think this is very much the kind of behavior that is going to make studios want to crack down even more than they already are, and from what I'm hearing that's already pretty intense. All I can say is, I have never understood why people find it hard to sync, I didn't see a lot of people complaining about this, and I feel like the people who are complaining about it are just simply a little bit lazy. I personally will be very disappointed and skeptical if this becomes the norm among reactors, and I also wouldn't be surprised it causes significant problems on everybody's end in the future.

Tyler Foster

Thanks for the update and I honestly dont mind the notifications. Just glad you guys got some good news and cant wait for future uploads.

Andrew H.

Not big news. Colossal news!

J. Valentine

plenty of other reactors are already ding this successfully

Bella Blue

excellent news

Bella Blue

hm pretty risky, I personally wouldnt do that, good luck^^

overdev

Feels like a win for Reactions as a whole

Jack Mingle

" In addition to providing this third version to all new content, we will also be retroactively going back to providing a third version to all our older content, starting with tv shows. " I LOVE YOU BOTH! <3

fadyq1326y1

While I hope you’ll be okay legally, this is soooo risky.

djKENTO

i have spent millions of dollars renting movies in order to watch with you guys so this is pretty awesome!

BlindPanda

Thank you for all you've done!

Ryan S.

hell yeah amazing news

Steven Baxendale

Yay!! That's amazing news!!

Guillaume Huet_rennibou

holy ****

Dustin Duvall

100%. I joined their Patreon only last year but after two months stopped paying because I only watch on my phone. However, due to this change, I am now paid member again.

AussieJojo

Thank you!!!!!!

rtt143

It will include season 2-4. S1 is unfortunately permanently gone. those really early content were done without much knowledge and we uploaded everything to YT assuming that if it didnt get rejected automatically, it was good and deleted the raw footage to save space. sadly we were wrong and learned the lesson the hard way.

George Simone

Also, I laughed pretty hard when you dumped all these videos and my Apple Watch just went bananas at work😂

Anamondaris

those are unfortunately permanently gone. those really early content were done without much knowledge and we uploaded everything to YT assuming that if it didnt get rejected automatically, it was good and deleted the raw footage to save space. sadly we were wrong and learned the lesson the hard way.

George Simone

It’s a great feature, i watch a lot on my phone, and this is fantastic for that.

AussieJojo

This is the best thing ever for all of us watching on our phones!💜

Anamondaris

If i was you. Just in case. Id keep all the current reactions that are blurred into a seperate file. So if law ever changes you wont have to go through and reedit every one again.

Fattydoe

There are other channels who have been doing it this way for years.

AussieJojo

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one! I have a question: What about your earliest reactions, the ones that are no longer available? Saving Private Ryan (with Simone) ? The Star Wars films ? The Indiana Jones trilogy ? Do you guys still have the original files for those ? And any plans to release them "uncovered" ?

Tom Hess

I love you guys so much for this! I was initially bummed upon seeing this notification thinking the old format was done, how silly of me to doubt you guys! Constantly showing why you guys are the best out & deserve nothing less than the world!

jay

It's too bad there doesn't seem to be a standard where a single video file can have its movie and reactor audio levels controlled independently. Like if there was a separate channel just for them and an easy control in the video player to adjust either volume.

Trevor S

if you choose to watch this new third version, then there would be no need to sync your own copy. however we are keeping the previously existing version where the content is muted and covered so that should you want to have your own copy to adjust the volume to, you still can.

George Simone

amazing-I think? I wonder how fast the film and tv studios will push law adjustments to not have this?

SpankTheMonk

I'm really hesitant about this because it will include volume. For example, Blind Wave has volume during their full length versions but it is so quiet and you basically have to sync up your own version anyways - which is way harder with two sources of the same movie audio, as opposed to with Cinebinge's where I don't need microsecond accuracy to enjoy the movie and reaction synced up relatively close. However, if the audio mix for these is done right, then this would be awesome!

N.A. Vreugdenhil

I think it would be much improved if you cut down the size of the actual movie box in the center,a little bit and extended the size of George and Simone's area,so that they were a little more equal,right now it seems very cut off and uninviting that Simone and George are cut off in tiny little cramped boxes,it just looks too enclosed,plus you can't see George's cat in the uncovered

Duncan

Woo!! Now I can watch on my phone! Lol

Brent

dude why are you so mad about this? no ones forcing you to watch the third version. keep buying your copy and do the sync, theyre still providing it. i dont know why youre so worked up, its not your channel. like just let other people be happy?? i mean talk about personality not matching profile pic. you think Ted would ever get this mad about something that makes others happy and also has no affect on him personally?

BeninLabour

i just learned that we are in fact able to not send notifications with new posts. so we'll be doing that from now on lol.

George Simone

i just learned that we are in fact able to not send notifications with new posts. so we'll be doing that from now on lol.

George Simone

I can finally stop telling my family to not disturb when I’m in sync with you guys. Hahaha. Seriously, I take over the living room.

BoredLittleLady

Does this include Avatar??! That show is specifically why I started following your patreon but if you're able to upload season 1 again that would be AMAZING. And I guarantee if you list all 3 seasons of ATLA on the "here's what else is on patreon" portion of your YouTube videos you'll have a bunch of new patreon members, just based on comments I've read on the ATLA reactions and my own experience.

Jordan Barnes

Just tried one (a few minutes of the severance pilot) and it works well. Thank you for the extra work and effort you put into these!

Alex Ch

I had no idea that other reaction channels did this, or that it was even a possibility. It's a fantastic option for the innumerable movies that have multiple cuts. Thanks for this. 👍

Brandon

That’s awesome! I always struggle to get the two videos synced just right.

Steve Valadez

I think this is the biggest benefit out of this development.

justjasper

"Full Nosferatu" hehe

Joey Johansen

Although it sounds too good to be true, I really hope this one is here to stay. Something tells me there is potential blowback but it was about time that reaction videos were recognized the wat they should! Great work to you and your fellow react friends!

Maarten Martens

YES!!! FLOOD My notifications... Please... This is an amazing thing. 😬😬😬

AC10

Fair play, that’s a great idea, looking forward to digging into some old stuff when it’s ready (Chernobyl for example)

Ian Hunt

Take whatever time but I would love to see the full nosfratu.

Greg Johanson

Well, one way this is good, for me at least, is sometimes whatever copy I have can fall out of sync with the copy you guys are viewing, for a variety of reasons I'm sure, depending on what it is. Won't be a massive concern anymore if this is the route we're taking.

LeperMessiah117

Just received 17 notifications, thanks George.🤣

Richard

The floodgates are open mates xD

Thomas Hilbert

My phone just had a seizure with the number of new videos you just dropped . Awesome , congrats !!!!

Andrew Helmer

George! Did you not have enough on your plate??? Thanks for thinking of the fans, tho. You're real people. I'm sure Simone is helping you...

DinChild

I would really love to know the legal advice you got. Reel Rejects has 1.3 million youtube subscribers and have flat out said on their videos they don't do this on Patreon because it's illegal. See here: They don't mention channels but you can see Greg mention it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKLc7v-LNFo&t=3m5s To put what he said on that video here "sync up with your own copy, time code included. Cause it's flat out illegal to show the whole movie, look it up, and there are Patreon accounts that have been shut down for doing that. Because it's illegal. That's why we don't do it." EDIT: Like you think HBO is going to be okay you're putting full episodes of The Last of Us up that someone can watch without an HBO Max subscription just cause you talk over it? Really? Netflix won't let you share a password with your mom, but they're totally cool with you giving away Squid Games to thousands of people because you talk sometimes.

Tay Schumaker

This is great, especially when there's a difference in platforms or versions of a films. I've had a couple of times where they wouldn't sync properly or consistently!

Dee

Well I’m so glad you two are taking another big leap for your channel. I hope this goes well for years to come. I used to follow creators doing the 3rd option, but there is that little voice saying otherwise. But I trust you guys

FranciscoGios

This is wonderful news

Chris Adams

Oh this is too funny, you both literally talk so much over the films you're watching that even the IP owners can't legally justify the argument that you are actually watching the films.

Sam

I swear to God sooo many others have slingshotted past you because of this one thing.... Y'all are better... But a lot of your audience only watches on a single phone screen... So they Can't provide their own copy. I get it. But so many other creators have blown past you doing what you don't do.... Thank you for choosing to explore this EXTRA option. Don't delete the other options.... That would be stupid... But PLEASE add this.... We will all thrive.... If YouTube ever decides to end this.... Then you still have the original 2 options that you have thrived with up until this point.... This is just good business...

AC10

.

Duncan

I honestly have no idea how they can get away with this,. I've seen Reel Rejects talk about channels getting shut down for doing this

Tay Schumaker

OMG 😱😱😱 Y'all are already like the most profitable "reactors" I follow.... And now THIS!!! OMFG... Will this be the turning factor that cements you into the reactor hall of fame for generations to come!?!?! Maybe

AC10

Im more afraid FOR you guys, it feels like a legal no mans land... and i dont really want to see you guys be where they draw the line. Best wishes

Downside dn

i like how base on no information from their conversation with lawyers, you just decided it mustve been bad advice. its their livelihood, i would venture to give them the benefit of the doubt that they took all the precautions and took every careful step to not risk their income.

BeninLabour

[extremely Elle Fanning in THE GREAT voice] HUZZAH!

sarCC

unfortunately with movies we've done in the past we will likely be going alphabetically, this is so that we dont lose track of which has and has not been processed.

George Simone

Yes, as stated in the video and in the description, this is an additional third version. The usual patreon version with just us and no audio/visual that youve always been getting will continue to exist and be produced. This is just adding an other choice.

George Simone

Yes. Just rejoined.

AussieJojo

Agreed. They never seem to have issues with this side of it.

AussieJojo

Yay!

SteveB

Cool, Asia and BJ have been doing it for years and haven't seemed to have any issues.

Brien Kliver

I wish all reactors do this. Rob & Trin React where the first ones I saw do this.

Ferdinand Tayo

This is going to be a huge boon for versions of movies that you react to which aren't available everywhere. There have been a couple that I have tried to watch that just kept getting out of sync because I couldn't find the same version you were watching and I just gave up, so I'm glad this will be a solved issue should it arise again.

Drew Acheson

How though? Even Rifftrax hasn't been able to do this without paying for the rights to the films.

ET Smith

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!! Thank you! You two are "banging my buck" and I love it!

StonyD

I guess this is good. The issue I may have is trying to watch a small movie screen within your reaction video. The other issue is if I want to use my own copy will there be a version without movie audio as syncing that up can be really horrible even if you get it almost perfect there will be wierd echoes and distortions.

Scott Lindsey

And joined back up!

Jessi

This is awesome and I hope it goes into effect ASAP, because I'll be totally real with y'all, wearing two separate earbuds that independently link to my iPad and my iPhone while I'm watching, for instance, Severance or Better Call Saul on the elliptical is a pain in the ass. (Fun fact: this is how I currently watch Tuesday content, in general.)

Jeff K

That's cool. I always thought this was the legal status - but it's still a big balls move to jump off the cliff and do it to that level - edited reactions and fighting BS DMCAs are one thing but the entire movie is a bit tighter to the meaning of the various conventions.. It's one of those things; being right doesn't mean you won't end up in court.. I thought some time ago about creating a webapp that would enable content creators (i.e. people who do reactions) to upload their reactions and then the user self-selects their own copy and sync is handled - even having support for the creator pausing and jumping back (as some do) etc which I still think might be the best ultimate solution to this sort of problem.

Martin Nicholls

Ironically, this will lead to a lot less bootlegging.

Joshua White

Hoorah! Great news, well done both.

Rory O'Rafferty

Absolutely sensational scenes! This makes it so much easier to go back a few seconds to rewatch a funny moment or see Simone absolutely jump out of her skin at something. Not only are you guys the best reactors but you go above and beyond to keep making subscribing on patreon incredibly worthwhile.

Ste Rawlings

That's awesome!

Dennis Vollmer

i just want less compressed cams

randomnewb

Not having explicitly confirmed it: yep, I guarantee that's what this implies. You don't get to easily adjust the balance between reaction commentary and movie, and you definitely will make big sacrifices on quality, but I guess it's convenient for phone-only audiences and people too busy or drunk to sync up the reaction with the movies.

W T

It would be great if we can start with videos that aren't available for streaming, like Spinal Tap.

Richard

Honestly love this as an option and my first concern was that you two may get in trouble from copyright, but if youve taken legal advice then WOOHOO. also i like that we will get notifications of the uploads as it will possibly bring up some stuff i've missed and be a good opportunity to catch up!

IncredibleBulk

This is great as I prefer to watch one video on my phone. When I have to use my laptop to sync reactions with my own copy, that means I have to put my cat out of the room, as she constantly walks around and sits on my keyboard when I use my laptop.

Twiska Brand

That’s awesome news specially for the certain movies I don’t have or are unfortunately cannot rent at the time the reaction drops. An extra viewing option.

Big Gee

Awesome. This is great news for me, as much of the watch along stuff I see plays at a slightly different speed to you guys (frame rates I believe?) and I have to pause to catch up every couple of minutes. I'll still sync up I expect for those platforms that do match.

Graham Bullman

I've seen other Patreons do it. Like AliciaXLife and MrBLoyd, who have been uploading their reactions with full video and audio for years without issue. For them the only issue is studio bots that scrape Patreon for titles. And they gets around that by just titling the shoes as something else. Like Straw Hat for One Piece and BoB for Band of Brothers.

Twiska Brand

Man, as if you two weren't already my favorite internet people. HIGH FUCKIN' FIVE, G&S

Ryan Skinner

So I'm gonna get a massive amount of notifications! 🤔so if I'm at work I CAN use the excuse "my ladies hitting me up all day" I'm only one gigolo!

ShoNuff3000

George, the funniest edit for an ultrawide Tarantino/Western movie would of course be you two on the top/bottom black bars. :D

Philipp Roensch

Amazing!

Jay Willis

Did not expect Patreon going with it, The Nomies have a separate site for that, but if it works for you - it works. Happy to have this option. I do not have an Apple subscription and much of their stuff cannot just be bought in hard copy, but alas.

Philipp Roensch

Wow, this is such a great news. Thanks for going this route!

Viilutaja

Thank you!!!!

Cate Tai

I love me some “Quality of Life” updates! Well done, you two!

Martin

Will the third version include the movie audio and music?

Twiska Brand

Thank you

Matt88g

Great! I so glad you’re keeping all the options. I personally like syncing up my own copy.

Ryan Williams

That's great news! Especially if I'm ever on the move or out of town (no more awkward iPad screen mirroring contraptions)... I'll probably still use my own copy though most of the time since I like control over audio, and like to see the full unobstructed movie frame.

Cincassette

That's so awesome!

Rhiannon

This is delightful news. Thank you.

Jared Petty

Omg this is huge! So awesome!

lovemoose

Amazing news.

Chris DeLuca

That’s cool. now i can watch every thing Even if I don’t want to rent or the movie is not available streaming platform

BigGuy209

If there is still version for watch along that doesnt have movie audio this will be awesome... I Will watch my own copy still from big tv.

My name is Jeff

*Checks the date* nope, not April 1st! Well this is HUGE and very very welcome!

Denashi

I’ve been watching reactions with Alex Hefner for almost a year now with this style and I really like it for rewatches and smaller scale movies. But for example I tried to watch Avatar 2 with him and it wasn’t the same. So thank you for still offering both options. I’ll go back and forth depending on the films

Henry Sanchez

Continuing to provide the version that allows us sync our own copy sets you guys far apart from the rest. You guys are Rockstars for sure! My biggest complaint of other reactors who provide the all in one commentary is that they always mess up the audio to the point that I can't watch their content, despite the reactions being very good. My heart originally sank when I read that headline, thinking you all were going to follow suit down a bad road, so thank you, thank you, thank you for keeping current content as it is and just adding a third option. More reactors need to take lessons from you guys! Again, you guys are awesome, thank you!

Ken

I guess this means ill be subscribed until the day i die lol

Mark Messer

Personally, I prefer the setup as it is. The view of the movie you provide is the best of any reactor I've ever seen, and easy to sync up with. And I like being able to set the volume of the movie separately from the reaction video.

TGrimace

Super cool news. I personally still love syncing up the movies and having a watch but this is terrific for a lot of folks on here. Hopefully you don’t overload yourselves even further coz you both are crushing the busy schedule as is anyways 🤙🏻

JakeyShakeyBakeyBoy

as someone who likes to watch on a phone its impossible to sync the shows

Siel sielll

unfortunately no, as these versions will be uploaded directly to Patreon, which will send the notification no matter what as soon as something is uploaded.

George Simone

Sounds like you received some bad legal advice in my opinion, but it's your bread and butter so up to you! Thanks for keeping the normal version going too. I prefer mixing my own audio and having an unobstructed view of the movie.

Onno Smits

that will make shows so much better wow!

Siel sielll

Wow! That is amazing, thank you for putting in the work. Never thought it would be possible 😁

ScottishSammo

Nice! It’s always a hassle to get the right version, get synced because the version I found has a different length of opening studio logo, then get synced again after I had to pause to deal with an interruption.

Wally Hartshorn

Can we get a version of just a BIG picture of Simone or George with no audio and no video. It is like one of you are in our home just on my screen while I watch a movie. Think about it

Shonnicus

Can you just put links in the Patreon and YT descriptions of the existing videos? This would forgo the need for notifications and feed spam.

Nikolai

Awesome! You guys are so thoughtful!

J Danger87

This is yuge, I had no idea this would be feasible given how copyright law can be, but very interesting indeed! If this format catches on it might be good for some channels e.g. group watches that watch their stuff on speakers, so you have to align your copy *exactly* to minimise audio echoing. Great stuff. Personally, I'll probably stick to the usual format as I think my system of having a mini-popout of the reaction on front of the fullscreen film works for me, but this is a great option when stuck, or even pn the phone.

Śéáń

Missed a real opportunity to have a big name Disney movie playing during this announcement.

Justin Feldman

If I knew about this I could have helped you guys with the uploads! I've synced up dozens of copies of movies and shows with your faces overlayed. I just never rendered any and just played them in my editing software. This is great for you two tho!

Shawnie

This is great news.! I will now upgrade my tier to include movies as well. It was simple enough to get whatever streaming platform for the full-length tv show reactions but movies are all over the place. Excited to watch some full length movies with you two.

Michael Haug

Mmmm this seems like an April Fool's, sounds insane, hope u are vigilant to any response from movie studios or changes to TOS. As long as your content is safe this is AMAZING!!!

Robb

Another channel i subscribe to has been set up like this for a little over a year and I've always wondered how their patreon hadn't been nuked by DMCA claims, but fair use, huh.

Feignorance

very surprised you’re able to do this but a huge welcome surprise - and absolutely insane that you guys are going back through all the old stuff too

Harry Fieldson

Now I’m retroactively deciding to keep this subscription 4Ever! 😂 This is an awesome addition! Love you guys and these reactions. Thanks!

Bridges.Not.Burned

🤷‍♂️if they talked to lawyers about this, sounds like they got their bases covered.

BeninLabour

Very fucking cool...I wait patiently for your Shogun reactions...I couldn't sync my copy up with yours, and would very much like to experience your reaction. NOW! No, I can wait. I'm waiting...

Steve Mercier

Awesome news!

Chris Kimmel

I know t.v. shows theres no need for your own copy for some reactors and I only know of one reaction channel that shows you the full blown film using a third party website not on patreon, good luck

dieselbeast

Amazing news!

Miguel Reyes

holy shit that’s awesome. i don’t mind syncing most of the time but for some stuff it’s a different version depending on countries/ streaming services and it can be frustrating to deal with midway through.

Tori Loomis

That'll be pretty great, especially when there are multiple versions of a movie and sometimes it can be a little tricky getting a hold of the version you guys are watching.

Stephanie Bedworth

Great news. Hard to synch when watching on my phone. A couple other tractors I subscribe to does this and it sure makes things easier. Thank you

Neal Riggins

I don't have to perform sudoku because of this! Thank you!

Jason R Carpenter

Nice! Personally I'm fine the way it is but this is helpful specially when someone has a version of the movie different to the one you are reacting.

Monica Alarcon

Wow! Thats AWESOME!! Thank you both for what you do and the obvious care and consideration you’ve put into coming up with this new option! 🎉

RogueRN

So excited!

Texas J

Honestly this will save me some money. I'm only subscribed to some streaming services only for stuff like cinebinge. Very nice and thank you!

Jomero

Huge news! This is so exciting! Thanks for all you do

Anthony Fumai

🥳🥳🥳, look forward to these! Understand it’s a big undertaking though, best of luck. 🫡

OlRock

Holy cow! 🥳

mky

Amazing news

Corabal

Whoa, this changes everything. No more having to figure out which version of a film to find in order to sync up.

JDV

That's awesome no more renting lol always enjoy your commentary as fellow gamers I get s lot of jokes

Marc Galanin

Sweet!! Thanks guys.

Estelle’s dada jesse

Woo hoo! Can’t wait for the new feature! When do we get the version with George’s accompanying interpretive dance?

Simone's Coconut Squire

YAY!!!!!! Thank you for thinking of us!!!!!❤

Joe Lazarus

I'm honestly so hyped for this, I love watching you guys but i often do it at work and syncing isn't always an option

The Fool

This seems extremely illegal

Tay Schumaker

Hell yeah. Y’all are the best

Sir_Robert

Huge!!

Chris Wiltshire
