Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Progressive

Primary

The film's central narrative is a classic anti-imperialist and anti-authoritarian struggle, where a diverse, decentralized rebellion, including indigenous peoples, overthrows a technologically superior, oppressive empire, aligning with left-leaning themes of liberation and social justice.

The movie includes visible diversity through characters like Lando Calrissian, but its core cast and narrative structure largely adhere to traditional portrayals. The story does not explicitly critique traditional identities or center on explicit DEI themes, focusing instead on classic good versus evil and personal redemption.

Secondary

The film features Princess Leia Organa engaging in direct physical confrontations with male opponents. She is shown to be victorious in close-quarters combat against Jabba the Hutt and an Imperial Scout Trooper.

Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi does not include any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on the struggle between the Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire, with no elements related to queer identity present.

Return of the Jedi does not include any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The narrative focuses on the conflict between the Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire, with no elements pertaining to transgender identity.

All established characters in Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi are portrayed by the same actors or actors of the same race as in previous installments. No character originally established as one race is depicted as a different race.
