I feel that in their defense, they shaped more "healthy, wholesome and positive" outcomes; rather than if toxic figures like Vito Corleone, Tony Montana and Patrick Bateman were the only archypes ("types") that people were exposed to, and cheering, and trying to emulate as "cool"; I admire how in Star Wars, Mando, and Last of Us, there was a new cool achieved in the protagonist, as a man who cares, who puts others before himself and fights for good causes.

That's why there is considerable demand for it
