> Every time I hear this claim "It's not that it's 'woke', it's that it's a bad movie" I ask myself: "what does 'woke' mean, then?" I think the idea here is that "woke" is a loaded and controversial term. Even people who agree that "woke" movies are, by definition bad, can disagree on what exactly "woke" means. But for these movies we can skip that whole argument because even if you forget about the wokeness argument, the movies are still bad. Even if all woke movies are bad, you can have bad movies that aren't woke, or are both woke + bad for other reasons. By removing the wokeness argument it makes it easier to form a consensus that the movies are still bad.
