I have relatives who are screenwriters, producers and etc in Hollywood and let me assure you in that world you're not only encouraged but you NEED to be able to articulate things in this quick, easy manner. people who front movies don't want to hear long unending summaries of original stories, they want exactly what you're describing here "like X-Files meets spaghetti western," "like Star Wars meets Titanic." they honestly will not listen to anything more complex, if you need to get your foot in the door you learn to explain your ideas in ways that people will get instantly with convenient shorthand, then go from there.

of course books are a different animal, but let me assure you this kind of thinking will not make or break you creatively. so long as you know it's merely a simple way of explaining it and not a guidebook to your canon, it will not hurt you.
