Why the scores diverge

  • Colours of Time highlight: The dialogue primarily serves to develop character relationships and historical context rather than delivering overt ideological messages.
  • Colours of Time: Characters appear organically integrated into the story, with their identities supporting the narrative rather than feeling like tokenistic inclusions.
  • Barbie: Several characters appear designed more to tick diversity boxes and represent political symbols than to serve the narrative organically, which disrupts character depth and coherence.
