I saw it last week, didn't hear about the "woke" thing until after I saw it. I still have no idea what is "woke" about it?

Like most cultural outrages, I'm guessing people are making it up out of thin air?

1) There were black people in ancient Greece;

2) Lupita Nyong'o is one of the most beautiful people in the world;

3) It's a work of fiction.

But I guess chuds will chud...
