If this is the best movie of the year so far, I'm speechless.

That's also how I saw it. With the addition that the daughter actually ended up realising that in part and realising that there is more between heaven and earth than meets the eye.
That would be sort of anti-woke on the contrary, not wokeness.
Btw, Macarthur park melting could be a view from Tim on the park's denegenration into a dangerous place. The park now and then, as the movie itself is about now and then.

An example I noticed was that they were rather dismissive of the VERY important climate crisis event that the daughter thought was more important than her grandfather's funeral.
That kind of shows how kids have their wires crossed, but also that everyone uses climate crisis as a high-road excuse to just do whatever they feel like doing, rather than things they really need to be doing with respect to what actually has a constructive impact in their lives.

What specific wokeness are you referring to?

I heard the wokeness was unnecessary.
"Your emotional state is not my responsibility." – Warren Smith

That seems very subtle. Could you explain?

Not really decent, just watchable and there's a difference.

What woke topics ?

Blair Witch was best viewed in a crowded, dark theater on opening weekend.
Napoleon Dynamite was the same way.
The feeling one gets from these "lightning in a bottle" films is more like a concert than a movie. Very difficult to re-create that, especially after all the copycat films that inevitably followed.
On the other hand, The Matrix holds up pretty well. I suppose it has more to do with the allegorical narrative than appealing to the zeitgeist of the times.

yea but do you have taste or do you just go see a movie at the theater every week and you like it ?
people enjoyed watching blair witch project. doesnt make it a good film. or even fun
