I have made lists to show movies which are extremely heightist (show short men in bad light) and those which are recommended for short men.
I also have a blog where I write philosophy for short men - http://basedmanlet.com

Hannah Montana: Killing Me Softly With His Height (2008)
Heightism is WRONG
In this episode, Miley dates a guy who she met at a mall while Christmas shopping, after telling Oliver that it's wrong for him to break up with a girl because of a petty and shallow nitpick and not too long after, Miley turns into the biggest hypocrite when she finds the guy she likes is an inch shorter than her. And spends the majority of the episode being a shallow, petty, hypocrite judging the guy by his height and not his personality.
This episode made a mockery of Short Men and is responsible for the heightism epidemic we see with modern women. Disney should be ashamed for putting this out. Will they do the same to a black guy?
Red Notice (2021)
Rock, Heightism is worse than racism
So I was watching the new red notice movie with Gal Gadot, the Rock and Ryan Gosling-all who are tall.
There's a part in the movie where Gal is dancing with the Rock and this man, Sotte Voche cuts in their dance and asks to dance with Gal. So as the Rock backs off and is walking away; Ryan asks him how he knew he would cut in and the Rock says something like "he's a 5'5 man with Napoleon complex that needs to assert his dominance" something like that.
Then later, he calls Sotte Voche a "muscular toddler" and tells him it wouldn't have worked out with Gal (when Sotte calls her his)because she's a hard 10 and "..the height difference, it just wouldn't have worked out" I found it so odd.
What's even weirder is the actor is 5'9(average height) and Sotte's height wasn't even something I even really noticed tbh.
It blows my mind how normalized heightism is towards short men, even at it's most casual effect.
