Why are movies and video games always one-sided?

Hello! This is a question i have about movies and videos games.
Why does practically every movie and video game ever always have either:
Good Humans characters and bad animal/non-human characters
or Bad Human Characters and good animal/non-human characters.
why can they have both bad and good human characters,
And Good and bad animal/non-human characters on the same thing? I would like to know if
you guys feel the same about this.

And Also don't get me started on how many reptilian villains there are on pretty much everything.
I mean you can just predict that the villain(s) will be reptilian and guess what? Your probably right!

Like on Mario, Nearly every enemy is based off an animal! And Everything there that is good is based off either
a non-human but not animal, or is a human!

And On Sonic, The Good guys are animals right? Well the villain, Eggman, Is A human!
You see what i mean by this?

a giant share of all movies feature only humans.

a large share of games also feature either just humans, just fantasy characters or both mixed between.

Oh you mean stuff like Sonic The Hedgehog 2006 where there are evil Mephelises and Eggmans, but there are good Elises and Sonics?

I wouldn't say this is the case since there are plenty films that are neutral in nature.

You may be right, but i think it's probably because if their not human, they can do alot of stuff
with them and there are way more possibilities.

Doctor who has a fair bit of neutrality IMO.
