Detailed Bias Analysis

Center

Primary

Political: CenterConfidence: High

The film primarily explores philosophical and existential questions about humanity's origins and the dangers of unchecked scientific ambition, rather than promoting a specific political ideology. While it touches on themes like corporate greed and individual will, these are secondary to its core focus on the human condition and the unknown, leading to a neutral rating.

Diversity: ModerateConfidence: High

Prometheus features a diverse cast with prominent roles for women and actors of color, reflecting a modern approach to sci-fi ensemble casting. However, the film does not engage in explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles, nor does its narrative explicitly critique traditional identities or center on overt DEI themes.

Secondary

LGBTQ: N/AConfidence: High

Prometheus does not include any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on scientific discovery, the origins of humanity, and survival, without incorporating queer identities or experiences into its storyline or character arcs.

FemPower: NoConfidence: High

The film features Dr. Elizabeth Shaw and Meredith Vickers in action sequences, but neither character engages in or wins direct physical combat against one or more male opponents. Their challenges involve survival against environmental threats or alien creatures, not hand-to-hand victories over men.

Gender Swap: NoConfidence: High

Prometheus introduces new characters within the Alien universe rather than adapting or recasting pre-existing, gender-established characters from prior installments or source material. Therefore, no gender swaps occur.

Race Swap: NoConfidence: High

Prometheus introduces an entirely new cast of characters original to this film within the Alien universe. There are no pre-existing characters from prior source material or history whose race could have been changed.
