|Glorifies anarchism and [[nihilism]], as well as containing several hints towards a pro-communist, anti-American/[[anti-Christian]] view, despite the salvation narrative. In addition, the Architect scene is implied to have been done to give a "devastating critique/twist" to salvation myths (thus implying that the Architect was a malevolent allegory of the Christian [[God]]). Far-[[leftist|left]] [[race-baiting]] scholar Cornel West was also hired to play a role in the film specifically because the [[The Wachowskis|Wachowski Brothers]] (as they were known at the time) felt his pro-Socialist/Communist and anti-American rhetoric.

Venellope is a character in a racing videogame. Her data has been damaged, resulting in her having a glitchy nature. She constantly transforms into a cloud of static, uncontrollably shooting ahead of the other racers. Because of this, she clearly possesses an unfair advantage over them, although this is never outright mentioned. The other characters in her game opposing her participation are unfairly portrayed as bigoted and villainous. On the other hand, the main character in the movie, Ralph, who we are meant to empathize with, expresses the strange sentiment that Venellope is "just being who she is" and the other players "could love her."

|Espouses anti-war sentiments. Additionally, firearms are placed in a negative light, with the phrase "guns kill" being repeated a total of three times throughout the film. The titular giant, who is an automatic destructive machine, is referred to as a "big gun that walks," as if to say that guns kill people automatically.

|Espouses anti-war themes and also brief but strong anti-hunting sentiments. Firearms in general are shown in a negative light, with the phrase "guns kill" being repeated a total of three times throughout the film. The titular giant is referred to as a "big gun that walks." Nevertheless, he is a poor metaphor for a real gun - unlike a law-abiding citizen owning a gun, the giant has no choice in his actions; he is an automatic killing machine, programmed with the inability to use his weapons for any purpose other than senseless destruction. The conclusion of the story is that he learns to hide his weapons and "not be a gun." Then, to protect the public from an incoming missile, he must fly into it and kill himself instead of using his destructive powers. As it is explained, "It's bad to kill, but it isn't bad to die."

Director John Lasseter commented, "Why isn't alternative fuel more... Why isn't everybody jumping on that bandwagon? It makes so much sense: Electricity, solar, whatever. There's ethanol. There's all this stuff you could be doing. And so I thought, well, that could be really cool in that you could have big oil versus alternative fuel. That's when we kind of crafted the bad guy's story."
