Possibly true, but unfortunetly Hollywood call the shots and when was the last time you saw a movie (mainstream) where the bad guy had an american accent? Their usually british,east european,koreans,chinese, whatever. Anything but American.
Personally it dosn't bother me, mainly because I don't care much for mainstream movies and take anything from Hollywood with a pinch of salt. But it is interesting to just take a moment to note or remember how many movies you can think of where the bad guy dosn't have a foreign accent of some kind.
Hollywood movies have a huge properganda element, always have done and always will.
