This is a twofold problem. The first is that people are not encouraged to explore. They just recreate from standardized text on how film should look/work, or emulate based on stuff they like. They do not work beyond this, or synthesize because the internet calcifies everything and locks it in time.

Because of the internet, everything becomes an instant classic or deeply reviled. No in between. Perfection or debasement. People wrap their identities around it to the point where you are not allowed to analyze something 'cause if you point out flaws, people will take something as a personal insult
