Detailed Bias Analysis
Analyzing...
Center
Primary
While the film critiques corporate greed and scientific hubris through Oscorp's actions, its central solution relies on the apolitical ideal of individual responsibility and self-sacrifice by a moral hero, resulting in a balanced, neutral stance.
The film features a predominantly traditional cast without explicit race or gender swaps of established roles. Its narrative focuses on character-driven conflicts and superhero action, without critiquing traditional identities or explicitly incorporating DEI themes into its central plot.
Secondary
The character Dr. Kafka, canonically female in the Spider-Man comics (Dr. Ashley Kafka), is portrayed as male in this film, constituting a gender swap.
Max Dillon, a character canonically established as white in Marvel Comics, is portrayed by Jamie Foxx, a Black actor, in the film. This constitutes a clear race swap.
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on Peter Parker's superhero life, his relationship with Gwen Stacy, and conflicts with villains, without incorporating any LGBTQ+ representation or related storylines.
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes within its narrative. The film's plot focuses on Peter Parker's struggles with his dual identity, his relationship with Gwen Stacy, and conflicts with villains like Electro and the Green Goblin, without touching upon transgender identity.
The film does not feature any female characters engaging in or winning close-quarters physical combat against one or more male opponents. Female characters are present but do not participate in such combat scenarios.
