Why in movies and tv shows no one cares if they kill innocent people?
Ok so there is a good guy with loads of guns and there is an evil guy running a company and the building is protected by security guards. Why is it ok for the good guy to shoot these seemingly innocent security guards. They probably are working to support their wife and kids and most likely have nothing to do with the bad guys evil plans.
Is it just collateral damage, they are need to die for the greater good?
Or am i just thinking too much?
No, you're thinking the right amount. Ethically, killing is ALWAYS wrong. Sometimes when options are limited, and lives are in danger, killing may be necessary (Because your options are limited, and killing involves the least risk), but it's still wrong. It would be nice if more movies made it it a point to sympathize with followers(Security guards people too), and either attempt non-lethal methods or emphasize how they are 'the few' who need to be tragically sacrificed, for the survival of many others.
I have seen a few stories where the main characters and their friends try their best get through fights with enemies, while keeping as many people alive as possible. But these stories are rare, and usually involve the main characters being "young and naive to the harsh reality of the world".
More prominent (but still relatively rare outside Anime/Manga) is the "Sacrifice the few for the benefit of the many", but even this can be put in a black and white contrast where sparing people is purely evil and refusing to take risks is purely evil. Good versions of this are also rare.
Sad, but if people like us demand more ethical consideration(or create our own work with it) from entertainment, then maybe they will become less rare. The rule of 90% crap for any media still holds, but if the media itself grows (like videogames have been doing), then the 10% of non-crap will be more numerous.
