Well there are more scenes accompanied by music like the Ragnarok ones. I'd say most are on par, some perhaps slightly better, depending on your music taste.
Actually I take back saying this wasn’t woke at all.
I won’t go into it for obvious forum rule reasons BUT there is ONE element present that can easily be labeled as woke depending on your views on the subject.

Saw it last nite. It’s not bad. It does have to many jokes like a bad Marx Brothers movie. Yes, there are bad Marx Brothers movies for the same reason, you need straight characters to balance out the goofy ones. If everyone is funny, no one is. That’s the way the first half of the movie is. Once there is some serious stuff it balances better and feels more like Ragnarok. I agree with most here, it feels like something is missing and throws off the rhythm of the movie. Biggest complaint is Korg tells a story about his 2 dads and the whole reason Korg is in these movies is because he pissed his mom off and she had him put in jail. Taika should have seen the last Thor movie before he wrote and directed this one.
I enjoyed the film... it was fun. I liked Ragnarok better. Some of the jokes in this film fell flat and the story felt rushed/incomplete. I'll probably go see it again next week.
BTW caught quite a few things in the film that could be considered "Woke" by some...
Korg being gay
Valkyrie being gay
Heimdalls child transitioning? Astrid to Axel or something? It wasn't clear but a few people in my group interpreted it that way.
why anyone lets these things ruin their enjoyment of a film is beyond me

Korg is not gay. It's just that his race is single sex. I do not think they have any females at all. Valkyrie being bi and Axl transitioning shouldn't be an issue though.
One more "woke" thing might probably also be the 1% (gods) languishing in wealth while the common-folk suffer. They literally have gold (money) running through their veins.

This was my sentiments. I'm a huge Thor fan so I'm less critical and more critical in different ways. I'm still happy to be seeing him on the big screen after all these years, Hemsworth is always a delight.
I wish we had more of Gorr the God Butcher actually doing God Butchering. Like, there wasn't a single on screen fight or kill (with other Gods). Why not utilize such an iconic actor?
Overall I wish the movie let things breathe a little more and develop the plot. It hopped around a ton and very quickly.
The humor was good for me, I laughed sometimes, I didn't in others. It was fun, I just wanted more.
