* The Canadian cheese-fest, TheFinalSacrifice, has literally only one female character in the entire film...dear old Aunt Betty. Any other feminine presence consists of the voices of a phone operator & radio announcer and a photo on Zap Rowsdower's dashboard (Servo: 'I'm Sherry!'). With the exception of Betty, the whole film is a sausage-fest from main characters, the villain, mooks & extras (one, actually, a gas station attendant). How the Ziox people managed to exist for eons is anyone's guess...maybe the evil Ziox cult's like the Taliban.

* While ''Literature/CharlieAndTheChocolateFactory'' has a not-bad 3:2 male-female ratio for the Golden Ticket finders and 5:4 ratio for the parents/guardians who come with them (the latter reduced to 3:2 in adaptations), there is a tendency for the GreekChorus of Oompa-Loompas to be depicted as almost or exclusively male in adaptations, even though the novel makes it clear there are females. Only males are seen in [[Film/WillyWonkaAndTheChocolateFactory the 1971 film]] and [[Theatre/TheGoldenTicket 2010 opera]] (the latter has an all-female squirrel chorus as a counterpart). While ''hundreds'' are seen in the [[Film/CharlieAndTheChocolateFactory 2005 film]] only ''one'' is depicted as female, though this is partially because [[ActingForTwo one actor plays all of them]]. The [[Theatre/CharlieAndTheChocolateFactory 2013 stage musical]] has about equal numbers of male and female Oompa-Loompas played by the chorus.

The protagonist (Aladdin), main villain (Jafar), best friend/mentor (Genie), and sidekicks (Abu and Carpet) are all male. The Sultan rounds out the cast of male characters. Female characters do populate the world so this is arguably faithfully reflecting the kind of world where power games are played out between men and Jasmine's story would revolve around the necessity of her finding a man to marry. It still doesn't solve the diversity/representation issue but it's somewhat logical.
