Leans Progressive
Primary
The film's central conflict and resolution strongly advocate for environmental conservation and community resistance against unchecked, destructive development driven by a corrupt authority figure, aligning with progressive values.
The movie, an animated feature with animal protagonists, does not feature explicit DEI-driven casting in terms of character roles or race/gender swaps of traditionally white characters. Its narrative focuses on an environmental conflict between animals and a greedy human mayor, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or making DEI themes central to its story.
Secondary
The film features Precious, a female pug, who repeatedly uses her physical strength to directly engage and defeat multiple male animal control officers in close-quarters combat throughout the movie's action sequences.
The Nut Job 2: Nutty by Nature is an animated family film that does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters, relationships, or themes within its plot. The narrative is entirely devoid of such content, resulting in an N/A rating for LGBTQ+ portrayal.
The film is a sequel to an original animated property. All returning characters maintain their established gender, and new characters are original to this installment, thus not subject to a gender swap from prior canon or source material.
The Nut Job 2: Nutty by Nature features animal characters, which do not possess human racial characteristics. The film is an original animated sequel and does not adapt human characters from prior source material or historical records where race would be a factor. Therefore, no race swaps occur.
