Leans Traditional
Primary
The film's central subject matter of a child befriending and protecting a monster is inherently apolitical, focusing on universal themes of friendship and acceptance rather than explicit political ideologies. The conflict with adults/authorities is a common, non-partisan trope in children's media.
The movie features primarily traditional casting with a predominantly white main cast and no apparent intentional race or gender swaps of established roles. Its narrative maintains a neutral or positive framing of traditional identities, without explicitly incorporating or critiquing DEI themes.
Secondary
The animated series 'My Pet Monster' does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative centers on a young boy and his friendly monster, typical of children's programming from its era, without engaging with queer identity or experiences.
The film "My Pet Monster" (1986 TV series) does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The narrative focuses on a boy and his monster friend, without exploring gender identity topics.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The 1987 animated series "My Pet Monster" adapts the toy line and 1986 film. Key characters like Monster and Max retain their established male gender from the source material. No characters canonically established as one gender were portrayed as a different gender in this adaptation.
The 1987 animated series "My Pet Monster" features characters whose racial depictions align with their original portrayals from the toy line and preceding live-action film. No established human characters were portrayed by a different race.
