I think one thing missing from modern movies is the truly epic soundtracks we used to get from Williams, Zimmer, et al. Even the classic composers have put out weaker things of late. The Dune and Star Wars sequel scores just weren't good. Epic scores take movies to a whole other level, and we just aren't getting that these days.

Even the ones that are meant to sound epic just aren't hitting the same, to me. Maybe it's just the movies I've seen, but there seems to be a the shift away from using 'full orchestra maybe plus other stuff' to more minimalistic orchestration in regards to which and how many instruments are used. Sometimes you just need to pull out all the stops to get the real epic feels.

On the other hand, at least they're listing the orchestras and/or individual musicians in the credits these days. (My dad loves to read through the credits and go "oh yeah I've played with that guy before!" or "he does lots of Hollywood stuff these days" etc. show-off)

My kingdom for movies with clear recognizable melodies and motifs that recur through the soundtrack. The last one I can think of was Pirates of the Carribean.

All movie making arts seem to be dying, in favour of fast cuts, bright flashes, and music that is either the jump scare chord or just bland elevator music.

I don't think anyone knows how to make real movies no more.
