Leans Traditional
Primary
The film's central conflict revolves around a character's journey of self-discovery and courage, supported by friends, to overcome a generic antagonist. Its themes are universal and apolitical, focusing on individual growth and community rather than promoting any specific political ideology.
This animated film features anthropomorphic animal characters with a predominantly white voice cast. The narrative follows a traditional hero's journey for its male protagonist, focusing on themes of courage and friendship without incorporating explicit DEI themes or critiquing traditional identities.
Secondary
The animated film "The Outback" (also known as "Koala Kid") does not feature any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on a koala's adventure to become a hero, without incorporating any elements related to queer identity or experiences.
The animated film "The Outback" (also known as "Koala Kid") does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The narrative focuses on an anthropomorphic koala's adventures in the Australian Outback, with no elements related to transgender identity.
The animated film primarily focuses on male characters engaging in physical conflict. Female characters, such as Cordelia and Nerissa, do not participate in direct physical combat against male opponents. Their roles are supportive or as objects of protection, rather than active combatants.
The Outback (2012) is an original animated film. Its characters were created specifically for this production and are not based on pre-existing source material or historical figures with established genders. Therefore, no gender swaps occurred.
The film "The Outback" features original anthropomorphic animal characters. Since these characters are not human and have no prior established human racial identity, the concept of a "race swap" as defined does not apply.
