Get Real...
Filmmakers can, do, and should create any kind of characters and stories they want. That is what they do. The very idea that they are under some sort of obligation to create characters that are just like you, or situations that are just like yours is as offensive as it is stupid.
If you don't like what you're looking at, get up and walk away and go find something better. But don't support these artists with your time and money and then expect them to start taking instructions from whiny audience members who can't be satisfied by stories that aren't all about themselves. That kind of obnoxious attitude deserves all the crappy sequels and unfunny comedies ever made.
