What We Think

Lost in Space (1998) is about as non-woke as big-budget Hollywood gets these days. It sticks to classic adventure and family themes, updates the action, and largely avoids the ideological pitfalls dominating modern reboots.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Lost in Space (1998) mostly sticks to traditional narrative structures and family dynamics. Characters are developed based on their roles and personalities rather than forced diversity, and there’s no noticeable emphasis on identity politics. Any changes from the original series seem to focus on updating the action rather than ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film upholds classic sci-fi and family values, centering the Robinson family’s dynamic and traditional gender roles. Masculinity and parental authority are portrayed in a mostly positive, if not sometimes bumbling, light. There’s little indication of cultural revisionism or overt subversion of established norms.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no heavy-handed ideological messaging, and non-woke viewpoints aren’t mocked or villainized. The villains act out of personal motives rather than as stand-ins for traditional viewpoints. Diversity of perspective isn’t a major focus, but neither is ideological uniformity.
