	Despite unofficially shuttering the project at the end of the 2010's, Draco said he was open to the idea of attempting the project again assuming he could make the project work around his schedule (and the schedules of other potential hosts). In 2025, Draco and [[bayballchamp]] recorded an audio-only commentary track for the film ''Bucket of Blood'', however the recording has not yet been made available as he is not sure which direction he wants to take the production.

			In 2026, Draco uncovered a stash of watchalong commentaries he'd made with friends in 2014 that were uploaded to his personal channel on YouTube under the name ''Let's Watch''. While not the kind of commentaries he wanted to do for the project this wiki page is about, they were grandfathered into the collection and given their own "best of" video in the official [[Born on the Bayou\|Born on the Bayou: The Very Best of Gatorbox]] playlist.

	Following the launch of the stream's Patreon and Gumroad pages in 2015 one of the perks [[Draco]] wanted to include were '''movie commentary''' tracks. These would be MP3 files that listeners could download and play alongside a DVD release of a movie which would allow Gatorbox to distribute the commentary tracks without needing to overlay the audio track on top of a copyrighted movie and distribute that with the potential of receiving a DMCA notice, a strategy pioneered by Rifftrax that is still in use today.

	Despite remaining an active project for several years no commentary tracks were ever recorded due to the fact that Draco said he'd like to have himself and two other hosts on each track and attempting to sync everyone's schedules together proved to be extremely difficult, especially taking into account the geographic locations of all of the hosts. Eventually, the Gatorbox page on Gumroad was closed down due to the limited number of releases and an overall lack of adoption by viewers.
