Leans Traditional
Primary
The film's central conflict revolves around solving a holiday-themed mystery and exposing individual fraud, which are inherently apolitical themes. It focuses on entertainment and traditional Scooby-Doo tropes without promoting any specific political ideology.
This animated movie maintains traditional casting for its well-known characters, without any intentional race or gender swaps. The narrative focuses on a classic mystery plot, presenting a neutral and uncritical framing of traditional identities, with no explicit DEI themes integrated into the storyline.
Secondary
The film centers on the celebration of Christmas, a Christian holiday, portraying its traditions and spirit as valuable and worth saving from disruption. The narrative aligns with the positive virtues of the holiday, with the protagonists actively working to preserve it.
This Scooby-Doo animated special does not include any explicit LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on the traditional mystery-solving adventures of the gang, with no elements suggesting queer identity or experiences. Therefore, the film has no discernible impact on LGBTQ+ representation.
The film features female characters Daphne Blake and Velma Dinkley who participate in the mystery. However, their roles do not include scenes where they physically defeat male opponents in close-quarters combat. The villain is apprehended through traps and teamwork, not individual physical victories by female characters.
This Scooby-Doo animated special features the classic Mystery Inc. gang—Fred, Daphne, Velma, Shaggy, and Scooby-Doo—all portrayed with their established canonical genders. No characters from prior installments or source material have their gender changed.
The film features the established Scooby-Doo characters (Shaggy, Fred, Daphne, Velma), all of whom are depicted as white, consistent with their long-standing canonical portrayals across the franchise. No character's race deviates from their established depiction.
