This is actually my biggest problem with 'Glass Onion'. Sure, it also has a weaker script than 'Knives Out', but visually, everything feels "plastic". In 'Knives Out', you could feel the light fog that clothed the Thrombey residence. You almost smell the leather on the chairs. In 'Glass Onion', the setting feels like the set of a sitcom.

it's a sitcom? or maybe it's to put your mind in a place to expect jokes n find them more funny...

Maybe it's the difference in equipment. TV shows, especially the live audience ones, tend to film with several cameras at the same time to amp production speed, but obviously not several IMAX or Alexas. I'm also almost certain part of it is the frame rate. Even regular movies on TVs that automatically generate frames between the actual frames to technically be 60fps look really weird

Lighting is probably a big factor. Do sitcoms have shadows?

Simply the taste of the creators of that movie. That is the look they were going for and they were happy with it. There are no overlords demanding something look a certain way. It is certainly not an equipment problem either

I was waiting for someone to cover this issue.But apart from the points in the video I want to add one more aspect that is Color Grading. A filmmakers obsession with Cyan color tone can be a reason. No blue is pure Blue, No white is pure white, No green is pure green. They're all Cyan...

Color grading makes a big impact! That was even more emphasized with the teal and orange look.

Thank you! I was waiting for the video to mention this. A lot of Netflix content, especially their movies (a few notable exceptions, as noted, notwithstanding) all seem to have the same color grading! It's not bad, in and of itself, but it is needlessly overused and gives a lot of their productions a generic look and feel.

There is a lot of amazing Netflix content made by extremely talented people (there's also a lot of duds). Even if they devalued cinema a bit, I remember what tv shows and tv movies looked like before Netflix, and it's night and day. Considering the limited high quality cinematic experiences instead of endless franchise reboots, there are serious artsy quirky films I can watch from all over the world that Netflix played a hand in

I just realized why despite having Netflix I can only watch it a couple of times a week and I always go back to my old movies on Blu-ray and dvd instead. I’m visually bored. As an illustrator watching the same visual style over and over and over and over again as it happens with streaming , bores me to death. The lack of visual environments and the focus on close ups all time is not something that excites me that much. I prefer to go back to real movies than watch content. And I don’t watch movies on small devices either. That makes no sense. Tv or theater.

You can also look at Furiosa and Atlas. Furiosa is a huge epic with a lot of costumes, set designs, and you see and feel attention to detail. Atlas is a hodge podge of ideas from elsewhere in a good enough looking package, but it's like watching a high level video game. It's just part of the overall bundle of content and not just an individual thing and thus it doesn't try as hard to please. On streaming, you see more care put into miniseries, that's where the medium really shines.

Are we really still discussing film vs digital in 2024? Come on. This feels so 2014. This 2k alexa netflix thing is in the past at least for two years with the 35 and even longer with the lf. I don't even know if it makes a relevant point in 2024. Netflix is not as bad on shot sizes like TV was back in the day. Just think of how soap operas were lit and shot compared to any modern series... Although I agree that set their set designs look poor on some movies/series I don't think this is related with shot sizes, the problem to me is budget/amount of movies needed. I feel we are reliving that forties and fifties hollywood flood of movies that had to be released each week to keep people entertained but on digital and in a more massive scale. What really annoys me on netflix is the data driven agenda that they make sure to stamp in every possible "piece of content" in every genre...

The central idea of having a new movie to watch at every go is the biggest problem. Working with a subscription model also creates a void, as to keep the subscriber in you need to add in more ‘new content’. Movies need time, production needs value, the audience wants to watch 3 years worth of seasons in 1 go, something has to be sacrificed ‘Quality’ the larger the quantity, cut corners. You feel this particularly more in design (color grading, texture, feel, and motion)

Kinda out of topic. I think modern K-Drama is the only one who has similiar style as Netflix. Some South Korean dan Japanese movie too. South Korean TV and cable channels can produce the same cinematography quality as Netflix, and they also had several titles with good quality stories outside the love stories before Squid Game. I think that's what made Netflix decide to produce Kingdom and Squid Game so well even though both titles were just series.

I BEG non-filmmakers here, DO NOT take this video seriously. It is absolutely uninformed reporting. The looks of these shows are defined by the creators, not Netflix. While it's true they have technical specs that must be met in terms of what camera you shoot on, this has no effect on the "look" of an image to a seasoned filmmaker. A camera is simply a capture device, and the "look" of said image is defined by what is in front of the camera, the production design, the lens, the lighting and finally how that image is treated in post-production. You can make any digital camera look like film, it is not more expensive to shoot "higher contrast images". Comapre the look of The Irishman, Stranger Things, Ripley, and Dark and tell me they all have a "Netflix" look. How could you even look at the images presented in this video that are on Netflix, and say that they all look the same? Of course you can find similar looking products on the service, sometimes there are levels of movies that are churned out in haste for "content", but that is not a look inherit to Netflix in anyway. Certain genres will have a "look" mid-budget rom-coms, horror, and sci-fi all have a built in visual language that audiences have come to expect. Also, I have a feeling that this entire video was written and voiced by AI which might explain the absolute lazy writing and reporting. I could go on and on here but please just hear me out, to regular audiences, do not listen to this crap. It's all over KZfaq. Just ignore and move on.

Your comment has valid points, but most of the things you’ve mentioned in this comment are also mentioned in the video. “The looks of these shows are defined by the creators, not Netflix.” stated in the video at 14:20 “what camera you shoot on, this has no effect on the "look" of an image to a seasoned filmmaker” stated in the video at 8:09 “You can make any digital camera look like film” although this is not completely true, you can make it look similar to film, which is stated in the video at 6:57. This video is not about how all Netflix productions look the same, it’s about why some of them look similar, which is linked to things you mentioned that define a visual look - set design, cinematography and so on. (Which we also talk about in the video)
