A related problem, which was mentioned somewhere on HN about a year ago, is that too many movies have a "chosen one" mindset. The entire Marvel Overextended Universe runs on this. They're all Chosen Ones. Real life does not work that way. Read biographies of famous people. Most of them involve grinding upward.

(Trump is the counterexample. From zero to President. Nobody did that before. Every other president in the last century had some major public office first. This may be part of his appeal. He fits the model Hollywood teaches people to expect.)
