Part of it is the way the industry works nowadays...actors and directors do not work for any particular studio as they once did, to be simply assigned roles and jobs based on studio need. They now are all pretty much "private contractors", and work for whomever they wish, or not. A studio owner cannot make a movie if no one wants to produce, direct, or star in it, and they mostly DO NOT want to star in such movies. I am certain that the guys at the very TOP of the studios know that there is money to be made in patriotic, properly-villained movies, but they could not get the principals to agree to make them.

Too, there is ego. If movies were made showing the true heroism and sacrifice of the American Military and the American people, it would, by necessity, diminish the lustre that the "stars" have so carefully polished about themselves. Face it, if a Tom Cruise, say, played Pat Tillman, it would serve to show how UNLIKE such a man Cruise really is. They will allow no such challenge to their place as "America's Royalty", politics or no. People might start to even ask, as they did in WWII, why so many obviously healthy young men are NOT wearing uniforms in their country's time of need. Their house of egotistical cards would crumble, as they were seen for what they truly are...pampered, overpaid, self-centered, vapid phoneys.
