  • Resident Evil highlight: The dialogue primarily serves the horror and survival narrative with minimal overt ideological messaging.
  • Hot Rod highlight: The dialogue is largely comedic and focused on slapstick and absurdity rather than pushing ideological points or moral lessons.
  • Hot Rod: Characters serve the story's humor and stunt-driven plot without feeling like they are inserted for symbolic representation or demographic checkboxes.
  • Resident Evil: Characters appear to be motivated by survival and plot needs rather than symbolic representation or tokenism.
