    This is exactly what I wanted out of a remake for this sketch! The original concept polished and updated with LRR's current level of skill. I never actually liked the original very much because I felt it leaned too hard on the one meta-joke, but I love this because it really expands on that idea and plays more in the space.

  • @alertArchitect

  • @dracoelynne
    @dracoelynne 11 месяцев назад +9

    I have to admit I had no idea that this would be as good as it was after watching the original; I thought a remake would just be, you know, a rehash of the previous material, but this recontextualization has, instead of merely adding to the humor, actually multiplied it to its own power, to create a sort of humor vortex.

    When commenting on a documentary, it is important that you express how much you already knew about the subject, such as your tenure as an LRR fan and if you've previously viewed the original piece, but also that you add in any new information you have gleaned, such as commenting on the much improved filming location, so as to not appear too all-knowing.

    Another thing about this documentary is that viewers are able to leave their comments regarding the content. That wasn't mentioned in the video, presumably because the documentary was about itself, and not about the webpage it's on.

I express my delight at how this video is both playful and comedic in its explanatory format which is primarily purposed for the comedy value of a video explaining itself. Finally, I conclude my comment in a somewhat pretentiously obvious manner in a medium which commonly does not need nor require a conclusion.
