Revenge is an easily understod classic motiff. Everyone feels like they have been pissed on, so they like see someone beat down the person(s) that wronged them.

also, the clasic stereotype of the writer is someone with less social skills, kind of nerdy, so maybe they are getting a little of their own angst out in the movies.

I remember one writer that said that you never want to piss off a writer in general, they lay awake at nights thinking of revenge on the people that wronged them.
