Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Progressive

Primary

The film's central narrative critiques unchecked overconsumption and its devastating environmental consequences, advocating for responsible use of technology and community well-being over excess.

The movie features a visibly diverse cast in supporting roles, though these are original characters rather than explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles. The narrative includes a critique of a traditional power figure through his greed, but this critique is character-driven rather than explicitly centered on broader DEI themes.

Secondary

The film "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2" (ImdbID tt4123482) does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on scientific adventure and food-animal hybrids, with no elements pertaining to queer identity or experiences. Therefore, the net impact on LGBTQ+ portrayal is N/A.

The animated film "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2" does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. Its narrative centers on scientific invention, food-animal hybrids, and adventure, with no elements pertaining to trans identity or experience. Therefore, the net impact on the portrayal of transsexual characters and themes is N/A.

The show does not feature any scenes where a female character engages in and wins direct physical combat against one or more male opponents using hand-to-hand techniques, martial arts, or melee weapons. Female characters primarily contribute through intellect and problem-solving rather than physical confrontation.
