Why do we use archetypes in movies and television? *Thoughts*?

Why do people use archetypes in those media? Is it a good thing?

Wouldn't people find things repetitive when the archetypes are used over and over again...? I mean, everything gets so predictable with movie after movie, show after show.

And how do archetypes "make" the movie?

Just some thoughts I was curious about. Thanks for answering and sharing your thoughts.
