Movies (or movie style, more properly said) changes all the time. I don’t get what are you trying to say here. But just because animation has gotten considerably better, it doesn’t mean they are different. As an example: luca (one of recent pixar films) has the same style and charm as brave (pixar movie from 10+ years back) and as toy story (pixar movie from 20+ yeara back). All of them capable of making me cry. Their animation style has gotten better and more polished, but they beat with the same heart

I haven’t seen Luca, and never planned to. Disney destroyed a huge amount of goodwill by making mindless live-action reenactions and low quality sequels. I just didn’t plan on betting my time on a Disney movie without somebody recommending it.
And yes, this is what changed. All the movie studios consolidated on a handful, and that handful got a reputation of only pushing shit to the theaters. Added to that, the theater experience got worse and worse for decades, to the point that people don’t really want to go there, they only go for the movie. And on top of that, the theaters have competition nowadays.
People keep blaming it on the pandemic, but I don’t think it’s even relevant.

I mean, you are literally the living example of what i said in the other comment: mindless rage dictated by the opinions of influencers withouth nothing of substance. You admitted yourself you never watched that movie and here you are spewing word vomit. Remember that the opinion of the masses is not the truth, and even more so in something as subjective as art. Then you ask yourself where this decadence is coming from.

Well, I guess being burned up by crap is “mindless rage”, and first person experiencing it is being “dictated by influencers”.
