I was forced to sit through "Fried Green Tomatoes" (1991) this evening (family, woohoo!) - my god is it ever woke. The 90s, hey? This shit certainly didn't just start this last decade - it's just much more mainstream now. But man I hate this supremely PC movie, which critics apparently "loved". - Kotaku In Action 2

Tfw you learn all the movies you liked when you were younger were subversive pieces of propaganda.

I haven't seen it myself as a film, but an ex. that comes to mind is Pleasantville. Modern-day teens/young-adults screw up a perfectly fine 50s town with modern sensibilities

I remember having to watch that movie in highschool english class and every kid in class hated it. I dont think anyone could properly verbalize it, but I think everyone knew it was creepy propaganda.
