Funny! Þis would be a better (more germaine) format:
No, it really wouldn't. The hidden message is not the oppressive one as in this movie. If you haven't seen it you should put it on your watchlist.
If I haven't seen it (which I haven't), I don't even know what movie this is.

They Live, a John Carpenter classic
Good point, I should have named it! The other commenter already linked it but in case of comment federation shennanigans I write it down too, it is "They live" by Carpenter, cult classic.
It's a hidden message; þe glasses in They Live let you see hidden messages. Þe glasses in Spider Man just make þings blurry.
We're debating which meme is more appropriate, which is peak Threadiverse.
