No respect for the audience
The script is absurd. It relies on improbable events piled on improbable events.
There is one thing that some could consider woke: some of the characters are prejudiced against Arab-looking passengers, which might seem like a virtue signal on the part of the director. However, I thought it was handled in an even-handed way, with Jodie Foster's character making an (appropriate) anti-PC comment. Also, the redeeming gesture by a Turk(?) at the end did not nearly make up for what he did earlier, so Middle Easterners are not painted as "stoic scholars" here.
However, even if it's not woke, it's not worth watching due to the use of the Maximum Improbability Drive.

Don't go in the water
No woke themes. Just typical minor character token DIE casting from Blum; the previous owners, interracial crush, doctor, nurse, and coach. Movie wasn't terrible.

Not woke
A couple of DIE casting, but minor roles. No woke themes though. Has a "Kingsman" feel to it with the silliness of some scenes. Because, spoiler alert, it is. It's apart of the Kingsman series.

Not woke
3 episodes in, no woke themes. Heavy Catholic presence not treated in a totally positive light, but may be accurate for the time.

Funny man in space
Not at all a comedy. Based on the book, but spoiler alert, don't expect the same ending. No woke themes. Seems to be set around the 70s-90s based on the technology. Not sure how many Indian's in Czech. So "Raj" was a DIE hire.

Ethnically homogenous cast, great thriller movie!
This is a great South Korean movie, emphasizing the importance of family and not letting work overshadow your relationship with loved ones! Great film, 9/10

Minor Indian diversity hire, overall great movie
The White Aryan male lead Chris Pratt character is a great role model and addition to the Jurassic franchise.

Horrible
We really wanted to like this show, but every SINGLE scene was man-hating trash. Every single male character was deplorable in one way or another, and every woman was a victim in need of empowerment.
Disgusting.

Still a good show
There are plenty of woke themes like humans ruining everything, but because it's actually relevant to the show's theme (coming back from the future to fix past mistakes) I can let it slide.
There are a few really annoying jabs made, but they rarely affect the actual plot.
One of the female characters is too tough to be realistic, but they do allow women to be vulnerable and saved by men sometimes, so at least it's relatively balanced.
What secured it as a good show to me though, was the ending. It has the best series finale I've ever seen, hands down...
Overall it's a smart, thoughtful show that's worth a watch.

Woke but good
‘The Owl House’’s lesbian relationship between the bisexual teenage girl main character and another girl is a large part of the narrative, in addition with a less-prominent relationship with a non-binary person. The only prominent heterosexual relationships are 1) between a pansexual girl (who has two fathers) and a bisexual boy (these orientations aren’t mentioned on-screen, but were stated by the creator) and 2) a strained marriage with three children between a woman who is a secondary antagonist, and a man who leaves her for another man after learning his wife is evil. The protagonist has a loving relationship with her single mother, however.
Despite the very prominent LGBT+ themes, the show is engaging and of good quality. The mystery and worldbuilding are interesting, the characters are well-written with good arcs, and the artstyle and animation are appealing.
