I was watching some South Asian villagers react to the star wars prequels just before reading this comment because I find them so wholesome, I guess, even though who can say how genuine their reactions are. I don’t usually watch reaction videos but, at the time, there was nothing else I would rather be doing.
Reaction videos are an occasional guilty pleasure of mine. But I avoid channels that are explicitly about "reactions" because as UlyssesT said, they end up all being the same
reaction to different things.
I do genuinely enjoy seeing people be excited and happy. But so much of that "industry" is fake. People either go over the top or provide nothing in addition.
