I'm finding myself getting very "over" the trend in movies (Baby Driver, Atomic Blond, etc) to turn them into music video mashups. Great for music royalty holders I guess, but bad for movie composers. Anyone else?

Its about a sense of nostalgia. It gained huge popularity after Guardians of the Galaxy and is going strong. It will probably burn out in a year or so... At least its not all about current pop tunes anymore.
Nope I don't worry. It take 3 to 5 years from page to silver screen. Any trend now will be over by the time you finish final edit of your movie.
Just bad news for film composers and the art of the movie soundtrack ... composers have to be a little nervous.
I love them! Music is such an important part of many people's lives so I find a character like Baby fascinating. I don't see using music this way burning out in a year or so - this trend has been going strong since "Easy Rider" in 1969 and got even bigger during the 1980's. Some filmmakers use music well. some not so well. when it's done well (Baby Driver, GotG) I love it!
