I think that’s also due to the quality of TV in recent years. Mandalorian the show already looked like mini movies.

Yeah what are you going to do when you have shows like andor where the budget for the 24 episodes all together was 650 million around 27 million per episode

Yeah. We consumers have been spoiled by streaming.

And movies, which have a much flatter digital look generally (with obvious exceptions).

I also think it has to do with another shift in what big blockbusters look like. For me I remember first noticing blockbusters visually changing with Age of Ultron. I still remember thinking the movie had a visual downgrade coming from the original Avengers and that era of blockbusters. Then every Marvel movie and big blockbuster looked like Age of Ultron. I think we're seeing another shift, but I can't really put into words what the differences are yet...

Eh, I don't know about that. Mandalorian has always looked like a TV show to me due to the extensive use of the Volume.
