Primary
The film leans left by satirizing forced conformity, superficiality, and historical revisionism, while celebrating authentic individuality and unconventional family bonds against mainstream societal pressures.
The movie features visible diversity in its cast, though it does not explicitly recast traditionally white roles. However, its narrative strongly critiques traditional American values and historical interpretations, notably through a revisionist portrayal of Thanksgiving that challenges mainstream perspectives.
Secondary
The film satirizes the superficiality and forced conformity of mainstream American 'family values' culture, which has strong Christian undertones, through the summer camp and its counselors. The narrative critiques this culture as oppressive and inauthentic, celebrating Wednesday's rebellion against its hypocrisy.
The film does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Its narrative focuses on the Addams family's non-conformity and rejection of societal norms, but this is not specifically tied to queer identity or experiences.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The film maintains the established genders of all legacy characters from the original cartoons and previous adaptations. No characters canonically established as one gender are portrayed as a different gender in this installment.
The film is a direct sequel to the 1991 movie, retaining the established cast for legacy characters. No major or legacy character from the source material or previous adaptations had their race changed in this installment.
