How would a film watched on, say MN+HD compare with one streamed on YouTube, in about 2 Gigabytes?

15-20gb (excluding the error correction bits) for a film on DTH seems a bit unbelievable, though.

Don't go in gb. Just know that the actual version (untouched) comes in the theatres, then compressed for live tv (from broadcaster end), then more compressed for ott/vod. Just take it like a screen size. Greater the screen size more the pixels and greater the pixels more the file size.
But I don't know whether makers compress the film then give to tv/ott or tv/ott themselves compress the film.

DTH HD picture bitrate in MPEG-4 AVC is around max 4 mbps while on SD is at <2 mbps. YouTube uses variable bitrate for HD videos that depends on the content and codec used (AV1, VP9, AVC)
 
Informative. Does that equate to 4mbps on internet as well, or does it contain other DTH-specific stuff as well?

It depends, if you download a movie from a p1rated site they might give a higher bitrate than that but for those legal streaming sites (like YouTube and Netflix) they would adjust so that it would not cause big internet traffic while not affecting the picture quality experience.
