Why the scores diverge

  • 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.
  • Joker: Folie à Deux: Some characters appear to serve symbolic roles related to mental health and societal critique, which can feel slightly tokenistic though still integrated into the narrative.
