Discuss I Saw the TV Glow

I can't find any better explanation. It's of course very confusing the whole movie to me. But it leans heavier on youth fantasiies rather than some existing spectacular alternate reality and I was thinking in the beginning about our somewhat troubled and confused millenials. Then I realised as time goes in the movie it ends up at more or less the present time.

Nevertheless, my interpretation is that it is mostly about those individuals that early in life that struggle with finding their identity and ends up in a confused reality.

I have a hard time to place it, if it's good or bad or even fantastic or extremely bad. Because it is a very confusing movie, in my eyes. It's very very strange.

Any other takes here?

Honestly it looked semi interesting. I got Color Out of Space vibes from the trailer, which was great IMO. Than I read a interview with the director and realized it was woke trash. Not my style and I decided to skip. Glad I did since its not getting very good reviews. But your opinion seems to be spot on from what I read.

Yes indeed, I read later a little bit in some review about it and then realized that yep, this was indeed some woke crap. And after that the things that confused me about it fits into the general blurryness, gender and identity confusion that is the foundation of this thing.

You can be glad you didn't waste your time.
