Leans Progressive
Primary
The film subtly critiques corporate efficiency prioritizing profit over human connection and champions the universal importance of family, explicitly showcasing diverse family structures as the ultimate solution.
Storks presents a narrative centered on universal themes of family and belonging, featuring anthropomorphic characters and a traditionally depicted human family. The film does not engage in explicit DEI-driven casting or narrative critiques of traditional identities, maintaining a neutral to positive framing of its characters and themes.
Secondary
The film includes a brief, background depiction of a same-sex couple receiving a baby, contributing to a broader message of diverse family structures. This inclusion is incidental, neither central to the plot nor elaborated upon, resulting in a neutral net impact on LGBTQ+ portrayal.
Storks is an animated film centered on the delivery of babies to various families. The narrative does not include any identifiable transsexual characters or themes, nor does it explore issues related to transsexual identity. The film's portrayal of family diversity does not extend to specific transsexual representation.
The film features female characters like Tulip and Sarah Gardner. While Tulip is involved in action sequences and evades male antagonists, her victories are achieved through teamwork, cleverness, and environmental manipulation rather than direct physical combat against male opponents. No female character engages in and wins close-quarters physical fights against one or more male opponents.
Storks is an original animated film, not an adaptation or reboot of pre-existing material. All characters were created specifically for this movie, meaning there are no legacy characters with a previously established gender to be swapped.
Storks is an original animated film with characters created specifically for this production. There is no prior source material, historical record, or previous installment to establish a baseline race for any character that could then be altered.
