   @lebronjames75 it's probably all of the above at least, but outside of the technical factors the most important thing to getting good shots is to have a vision for them and set up the scene/set accordingly. you can do this practically without a vision if you have a big budget by hiring professional prop and effect people, whereas in the smaller scale it takes a lot of ingenuity.
   in terms of the technical, hollywood does heavy color grading, the films often tint the whole movie as to sort of brand it, and this tends to make the films really pop out in a eyecatching way. you can see the extremes of this in trailers. in terms of the color space the big films occupy it's more like the artificial essence of what each scene actually would look like, brought further towards the desired direction by lighting setups designed to get this effect.

     i need to understand cameras and video recording
     
     i will never understand why all estonian movies feel indie
     each scene feels weak
     each angle feels like its filmed by an amateur in his back yard
     each post process effect feels, stock
     
     is it FOV?
     is it the shape of the FOV (lenses)?
     is it the zoom?
     is it the combined post process effects (color grading, HDR, etc) and DoF?
     is it the ultra strong lightings on each set and scene?
     
     i think ive seen a big american movie that have a counter example to most each of my questions
     
     ithink high dynamic range might be the most important one?
