Well BR2049 was made by the same director and probably a lot of the same crew so I'd be surprised if it didn't look similar.

Prometheus and Interstellar look nothing like these movies though. The production design is completely different even though there might be similarities in the color grading.

I give you that the super washed out colors has been a very common aesthetic in the past 15 years or so but I wouldn't say all scifi movies adopt it. Some examples: District 9, Avatar 1 and 2, Inception, Tenet, Ex Machina, etc.

In fact, most recent well-received sci-fi films were.

I'm aware BR was made by the same director.

In contrast, Lynch's doesn't look anything like his other films.

Color grading is a huge part of what makes movies look like they do, but beside that there is a sterility and cleanliness, a monotony in how the images are handled.

Well because this was the only big budget film Lynch ever worked on and produced by none other than Dino De Laurentiis.

Not sure what you're referring to. Maybe you're missing the analog feel of shooting in film? Dune 2021 was shot in digital (the newer digital Arri IMAX cameras) and Dune 1984 was shot in 35mm.

It's totally fine to not like digitally shot movies.

Lol it's not that at all.
