"The whole "america good, russia/middle east/any other f@#king (insert noun here) bad" trope. It's such a tired and obnoxious ego stroke. Case in point... Independence Day. People are shooting at the aliens with all sorts of guns and they don't even flinch... Willy punches one wearing a full space suit and somehow knocks it out cold?! Then says "welcome to erf!" Ugh... cringed so hard it hurt."
Frank, if you paid better attention, he was referring to the "sarcastic genius" role that Cumberbatch plays in every freaking movie he's in. Same worn out premise that Laurie does.
...Did you not see many movies in the 90s?
Yeah there are more bad ones now, but don't let nostalgia shade your memories of just so, so much awful garbage.

The heroes are whoever the target demographics are. The film makers are just trying to tick as many boxes as possible to maximize profits.
Gawd, I hate idiots.
In the eighties this was the rule. In Every movie with: Stallone, Charles Bronson, Steven Seagal, Van Damme and others.
