Not maybe, movies are simply shot in different ways, people expect different things. Nothing in this world is static.

Now its perfectly fine to dislike 'modern' approach, but in digital era that has absolutely nothing to do with some lens/sensor combo and everything how director decides given scene or whole movie should 'feel'.

Yeah Netflix definitely has a directing "style" across lots of its shows. Two things I've noticed are lots of shaky-cam shot as though someone's spying on the scene, when it's just the camera; and often a top down view from high up with loads of detail to showcase some visually impressive event, in mild slow-mo.

When the hammer is invented, of course you will be eager to solve problems that look like nails. I feel like this happened after quadcopters got good.
