I've heard this term in the last 3 years give or take. People on YouTube especially, it's all X, Y and Z Movie is bad because its "woke" and I just don't understand what it means?
A lot of it is movies with Female Protagonists and everyone say a movie is bad because the main character was a "Strong female character" but then they'll tout movies like Kill Bill(s) and Alien as "good" strong female characters. But to me it's the same as the movies which are bad now despite having the same Characteristics for the Protagonist. I'd assume the idea is that only older movies can be fine with a Strong Female Character, but then Alitta: Battle Angel is apparently good and "not woke"
Then there's having any kind of Gay Relationship automatically means woke, even if that's the point of the movie. Are gay relationships not allowed in film, even with a minor character like in Lightyear?
I just don't understand, so what is any movie at all with Gay characters in suddenly bad because its "woke"? Any movie with a Female lead?
I just don't understand if whatsoever, can someone help me out?
