Like what do Russians think of when they think of Americans?

Rocky?


Rocky is a hero though. I mean like a villain with Anti-american sentiments.

Japan had an American Ivan Drago some four decades before Rocky IV came out:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanshiro_Sugata_Part_II

As a matter of national pride, a Japanese judo expert must meet the challenge of an American boxer named William Lister. The much hyped conflict proves to be a bait-and-switch though. Lister is easily defeated and movie's primary fight is against a fellow Japanese martial artist.

That doesn't make sense. Drago is a hero to Russia. Rocky is a hero to USA.

Drago legit killed a guy, and said if he dies he dies. He's a villain. He's not portrayed in a good light at all.

I know that but Russia loves him. You said an American villain that's anti-American, doesn't make sense.

That is because you only see him in the light of US propaganda.

Now that you mention it, I can't really think of any evil Westerner in Soviet/Russian cinematography. Generally speaking their heroes are the embodiment of their values and cunning / abilities, sometimes to the point of absurdity (look up Stierlitz for instance). But... they don't really have any memorable "American" enemies in their movies.

The US doesn't use propaganda. It's only used by foreign countries as a way to paint US in a negative light. If you think propaganda is used here, you've likely been blinded by the ideals of the left.
