this applies to all major and even minor (indie) movies in usa because such movies are regarded as vehicles to spread propaganda on certain topics of interest to a wide audience - as admitted by some bigwigs in the movie business, their aim is to change usa (and world) culture, ie. impose their own idea of what a 'one world culture' ought to be
it is a global movement, which means one can find similar developments in all other countries around the world, especially there where ties with 'the west' are the strongest

Even Rambo movies, where the wars were an excuse plot to see Stallone do what he does (or did) best, are seen as such in retrospect by some.
however, rambo movies were not primarily an attempt to recruit for or justify ongoing wars, unlike virtually all movies based on the 9/11 deception, showing how this propaganda got elevated to the next level of perfidiousness

World Wars I and II are probably an exception, since the unequivocally evil Nazis were involved
the reason why the evilness of the totalitarian nazi regime is so exaggerated and heavily used is to cover up war crimes by the allies, to silence any dissent or independent investigation into the pre-, during and post-war events, which aren't flattering to the victors
want some ww2 examples?
- 2x nuking civilians in japan when the outcome of the war was already clear
- carpet bombing of german cities when the outcome of the war was already clear
- intentional starvation in post-war concentration camps
- post-war massacres, mass raping, death marches, mass executions of civilians and captured soldiers
- involvement of the international elite in setting up, supporting and covering up of these events (ww1 & ww2)

they have already been milked for all they're worth
i wouldn't be too sure about that, proof:
Darkest Hour (2017) Won 2 Oscars. Another 43 wins & 65 nominations.
Dunkirk (2017) Won 3 Oscars. Another 56 wins & 204 nominations.

it is fairly certain that some 90-99% of these movies were financed (to include the desired propaganda) by that same international elite

ground forces are more about presence, cleanup and winning hearts and minds rather than actual combat.
it is said that you cannot win any territory unless the ground troops secured it first (example: usa failure in vietnam)
'winning hearts and minds' by deceptive propaganda doesn't work in the long run, for it is said that 'the truth will set you free'

ISIS favors guerrilla tactics and hostile takeovers of civilian areas over "direct engagement".
thats because they are mainly mercenaries installed and supported by usa/cia, to destabilize, conquer and exploit the area
