Bechdel Test Movie List

Taffyta Muttonfudge confronts Vanellope von Schweetz about how she shouldn't be allowed to race.

I have to call it dubious, the main problem is that most of the characters are either talking to Ralph or Felix, so while their are a lot of strong female characters with important dialouge, much of it not about the male lead, but about the events going on around them.

Conversations among a group of Sugar Rush's (girl) racers.

There's only two prominent female characters in this movie (out of four characters total), and they never speak to each other. However, main character Vanellope and some of the other female racers (Taffyta, Candlehead, Jubileena, and Crumbelina) discuss racing in several scenes.

I don't see how it's dubious at all. There may not be a lot of it, but there are several female characters, clearly named, clearly having a conversation about a topic other than men. It's a clear pass.

I've removed the dubious flag.

2 Powerful female characters featured and their status in the film is equal to that of the male characters.

I agree with the current rating, but just curious if anyone else considers the "conversation" between Calhoun and the gamer girl via the first-person unit as passing. It's not a traditional exchange, but they DO see and address each other.

Also, Taffyta and (the Princess) talk, about the Princess.

Jen, I would not count the exchange between Calhoun and the gamer girl. First, she doesn't have a name, but even so, the girl doesn't speak back to Calhoun, and Calhoun isn't responding to anything the girl is saying, just whatever the game would make the gamer do.

I agree that while the interaction between Calhoun and the girl gamer doesn't count as far as the test goes, I still found it intriguing that the gamer was, in fact, female. There were also a pretty equal number of male and female leads (Ralph and Vanellope) and supporting characters (Felix and Calhoun. I mean the focus is obviously on Ralph as the protagonist, but all these characters were very important to the story. A lot of the supporting cast was female, too, especially a lot of the racers. Personally I'm really happy with it- my only complaint being the lack of PoC in any leading roles (though a lot of the racers especially were racially diverse), but I guess that's a whole other test.
