What if there were a way to leave comments at particular timestamps of a movie file that was posted? Like a running chat thread through every movie.
This is an interesting new spec that will allow you to make threaded replies to pretty much anything: geographical areas, websites, hashtags/topics, urls, podcasts, books, movies, papers.

right now you can really only make threaded replies to kind1 notes and trying to do it on other things is kind of janky. generic comments fixes this.

Soundcloud allows this with music tracks
Yes. Like that š¤

Type thing? Lol;)
Wonder if it could be useful tho. I suppose I probably wouldn't use it unless it was a rewatch. Could be interesting in the same way dvd commentary tracks can be.
(Also a bit like Dark Souls online notes for films and other stuff lol)
Tbh I cant stand commentary during films.
But maybe Iād be curious to read or hear e.g. nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s comments while watching/listening to a e.g. tech podcast/interview.
Absolutely, sometimes you want to be engrossed by the film. I imagine it could be useful for a lot of video content, that's a great use case you thought up right there.
Also.
Adding more info to instructional videos?

Streams could use it to sync the chat with the playback on later viewing.
subtitles for every video could be crowd sourced/AI generated, a nice accessibility feature
You could have a scenario where you have film studies notes, or the director, director of photography etc as separate note tracks to pick through. Like a dvd menu. Something useful like that. But not sure I personally would find too much use for social notes on films š¤

I was thinking more in an experience sharing way. It can be hard to watch a movie together online, this can partially replicate it. Doesn't need to be a free for all either. Maybe some people are funny mst2k style and people subscribe to them for that. Or just amongst a group of friends, or using WoT. Maybe you'll have a list of favorite movie commenters?
Seems like generic comments would be perfect for this use case
