Motherless movies

Watched another dead mother movie the other night. What was it? Toys. Oh, and Daredevil. And Electra, Spiderman, Hulk and Armageddon. Well, in Armageddon the mother had divorced the poor, hardworking single dad... But the effect was much the same.

Now women seem to not only be token stereotypes, but if they aren't young, pretty, skinny, heavily made up and single they're now not present at all. Worse, in movies where there are women telling their stories, they are centred around their relationships with men. Can't a woman have a life and an existence of her own?

Bleh.
