That's fair given that the movies in question are also American.
It's not just movies, also "real" aliens really like to crash land there and probe mainly americans.
Well it makes sense, the modern form of aliens is from American mythology. It's like complaining that all the spottings of the Loch Ness monster are around Loch Ness
I wouldn't call it fair but this is actually how Americans see the world, not aliens.
It's the reason why superbowl champions are called "world champions" even though only Americans competed...
