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.

Funny duck movie

‘Migration’ is just a fun time. The main family of mallards love each other, and although they occasionally have fights, they work together and never leave each other behind. And no gay ducks!

Hilarious Show

Sure it's woke, but it's not obnoxious. And it's HILARIOUS. My boyfriend and I have watched the whole show through at least 3 times and we've recently started watching it again with my mom and teenage daughter. Everybody enjoys it.

Super fun intelligent show

Characters are competent, intelligent human beings who advance based on their qualities. People made the best decisions they could with the information they had, and once they knew better, they did better.
Casting was diverse without feeling the need to draw attention to anybody's race or gender. Really enjoyed this show!

Only woke critique (SPOILER!!!) is that of course the overall villains HAD to be the 2 rich white guys.

‘Avatar: The Last Airbender,’ in the year of 2005, is non-woke. Its four Asian culture–inspired nations are divided by borders and ideologies, not the color of their skin. There are strong male and female role models.

The series’ closest thing to “wokeness” is its discussion of gender issues, but in the year of 2005, it’s actually handled competently in a way that would likely be much more highly criticized in modern U.S. culture.

One main character, Sokka, starts the series as decently misogynistic, often irritating his sister, Katara (however, he’s still characterized as a good person). In the third episode, the main group travels to Kyoshi Island, a location dedicated to the previous incarnation of the series’ “Avatar” and a symbol of both strength and femininity. They also meet the Kyoshi Warriors, a team of young women who mimick Kyoshi’s manner of dress and are skilled in combat. Sokka, who calls himself the best fighter in his village, quickly loses a fight with the Warriors’ leader, Suki, due to his untrained fighting style. He asks Suki to train him (which involves crossdressing, played exclusively for comedy), and is soon able to beat Suki after becoming more disciplined. In the climax of the episode, both characters are shown to be good fighters. Sokka apologizes for treating Suki “like a girl” instead of “like a warrior”; she kisses him on the cheek and replies, “I *am* a warrior—but I’m a *girl*, too.”

At the end of the first season, Katara also struggles with a master who refuses to teach her waterbending (psychically controlling water) for combat, as their culture traditionally teaches males combat and females healing instead. By the end, she proves herself as a skilled waterbender and the master is willing to teach her, but her ability to heal with water also continues to be important throughout the series. Katara is not only a good fighter, but also is sympathetic, sweet, and sensitive.

In other words, ‘The Last Airbender’ teaches girls that they don’t have to sacrifice femininity in order to be who they want to be—a type of message largely missing in contemporary popular culture and media.

‘Avatar: The Last Airbender’ is phenomenal and deserves a watch—for so many reasons other than (but including) its messaging.

Not woke

No woke elements. Great action flick. Nia was definitely a case of DIE casting.

Here's our in-your-face agenda!

I have retracted a bit of the hate from my original review. Aside from this film being an in-your-face liberal propaganda piece, it's kind of a cutesy "as expected" romantic comedy. In that sense, it's a fun watch. Previous review (updated):

"Lesbian-interracial couple marriage in Australia. And I so wanted to just sit and watch a silly romantic comedy with a hot looking woman. Sydney Sweeney isn't actually all that good in this movie, but she's sexy! (update: yeah, she's cute)

This film (update: This film's over the top inclusion and DEI brainwashing) makes me want to vomit. I try to not use the word, "Woke" on this board so much, since it's in the actual DNS name of the site. But that's what it is. Here's a couple other words: Hollywood swill (Update: But, still kind of a fun little RomCom).

I'm sure it'll appeal to the dimwit university programmed DEI robots who grew up in this time of asshats. This movie (Update: This movie's inclusionary vision) sucks.

Blue haired lesbian as the mean lead???, WOKE WOKE WOKE WOKE WOKE WOKE WOKE
