Woke: White, dorky, colourful. An easy introduction to the series. Crowd-pleaser.
Woke II: Spicier, more action-filled. Introduces new protagonists like the islamo-communists. Loses many of the fans of the first one, but they were fake fans anyway. The dark gritty one of the series, and eventually a cult favourite.
Wok3: The series goes off the rails. The protagonists fight a civil war where everyone either drives a tank or has an anti-tank rifle with “fuck tanks though” scribbled on it. There are cameos from every kind of celebrity you would never expect. There is a 40-minute long scene in which bedtimes and work schedules are debated. In the end, the bad guys win (or do they?)
IVoke: Released 20 years after Wok3 with a different director and new writers, and is instantly the most controversial one. Writers figured there wasn’t a lot of plot threads that could be saved from the last installment, so they tried something completely different. Post-apocalyptic setting with talking dolphins and octopuses and aliens, because why not. There is a romance subplot between a dolphin and an alien that is never resolved.
Woke: Day Zero: “Soft reboot” released just one year after IVoke that retcons the last one as well as making all the protagonists white humans again. Soundtrack by Limp Bizkit

Announcer: THEY’RE BACK
I like Woke IV the most because it is just clearly just a Posadist world. Also because there are alot of hitchhikers guide to the galaxy jokes.
I’m looking forward to seeing Eggers’ The VVoke
They couldn’t even name their shitty movie W0ke. But what else do you expect from a shitty reboot that’s only there to cash in on Woke nostalgia?
Really don’t know what they were thinking with the Contrapoints cameo in IVoke
It’s it pronounced four-oke or evoke?
