One of the movies in which they mention men are overrepresented is Pirates of the Caribbean (2007). I don't think overrepresentation indicates gender bias in that movie. It's a movie about pirates in 1728. Most of the characters in the movie are pirates, and only one pirate was female, if I remember correctly. I wonder if a completely unbiased movie industry would still have an overrepresentation of men simply because historically, a lot of "exciting" jobs, such as pirates, were done mostly by men. It would be hard to make a historically accurate film about gangsters, bank robbers, politicians, war, etc. without a lot of males roles.
