I think some people (like me and maybe OP), just have a such a strong empathetic response to media so that, even though we know things aren't real, our emotional responses and empathy with the characters mean we are upset watching them suffer.

[(Anonymous)]

Not OP, but seconding this very strongly. The fact that it isn't real is kind of irrelevant when it come to the empathetic response I have to fiction. A movie is not an abstracted, hypothetical thought experiment for me. It's a vicarious empathetic experience.

I think the conflict comes from the fact that neither side really understands the other, and often, neither side even realizes the other exists.
