What are some movies that portray sexism or have elemnts of sexism? I've already looked on IMDB but I'm hoping maybe there are some others out there?

seriously it like ever movie ever. especially action films. women are usually the "damsel in distress" rather than being portrayed as strong. transformers is one of the first that pops to mind.
every judd apatow movie has sexist elements.
as much as i love it, eyes wide shut completely exotifies women.
the girl next door, zak and miri make a porno...
the entire film industry is male dominated. pretty much all plot lines are centered around men and if the film is about women it is about women who are talking about men. it shouldnt be hard to find films.

Every romantic comedy or 'bromance' movie ever made.
Seriously. Sexism is everywhere. You don't have to look hard to find it.

every single disney movie ever more or less. walt was a nortorious sexist/racist/so-on-and-so-forth. if you looked at him aside from his great contributions to pop culture and the movie industry, he was an awful man. nowadays they tend to be a little better, but most of the movies he was alive for are just horrid. granted, most of them come from well known tales that were already incredibly sexist, but he just took it in another direction.
