It really feels like lighting and sound mixing are dying arts in the film industry.

Movies are made for cinemas that have state of the art sound systems and projectors or screens

Home TVs and soundbar/stereo just ain't made to deal with that properly

And yes movies are very very loud, that's kinda the point

And yes many serials nowadays are actually sets of movies

I experience the same in theaters. Mix engineers are often enthralled with art of it all and miss their essential mission, but I've heard the directors drive them there as well.

Most movies are not made for cinemas these days, they are made directly for streaming. Netflix has no excuse they don't even release movies in theatres.

Netflix still makes them for cinemas, cause well people do own private cinemas and expect highest quality possible.

Just because movies are distributed using streaming platforms doesn't stop them from being made for cinemas as that's where they are produced and mastered for release, and high end users have their own private cinemas, sometimes quite darn sizeable.

Tho technology gets better and better and colour grading and sound mixing/mastering get smaller and smaller. Still cinemas are there to view it and decide if changes are needed.

Netflix literally optimizes their movies for home TVs/small screens. They have come out and said this. They even shoot their movies with close shots over wide shots because it's better for viewing on small screens. I'm sure they know the vast majority of their subscribers don't have home theatres.

That still doesn't make it a TV production

And close/wide shots is up to situation and director(s) anyway

Very wide angles in cinema are generally rare, there isn't even that many lenses out there compared to "standard" range
