Leans Right
Primary
The film consciously balances competing viewpoints regarding tradition versus modernity and efficiency versus heart, ultimately championing a solution that integrates the best of both while focusing on the universal, apolitical spirit of Christmas and family.
Arthur Christmas features a traditionally depicted Claus family without explicit race or gender swaps of established roles. The narrative centers on the traditional figure of Santa Claus and his family, exploring themes of tradition and modernization without critically portraying traditional identities in a negative light.
Secondary
Arthur Christmas is an animated family film that does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters, relationships, or themes. Consequently, there is no portrayal to evaluate within the scope of this framework, resulting in an N/A rating.
The film features female characters such as Mrs. Claus and Bryony Shelfley. While Bryony is an active and capable elf, her contributions are primarily in logistics, problem-solving, and agility, rather than direct physical combat against male opponents. No female character is depicted defeating male opponents in close-quarters physical combat.
Arthur Christmas is an original animated film that introduces new characters within the Santa Claus mythos. There are no pre-existing canonical characters whose gender was altered for this production.
Arthur Christmas is an original animated film. Its characters were created for this specific movie, meaning there is no prior source material, historical record, or previous installment to establish their race before this film's production. Therefore, no race swap occurs.
