It's definitely not just you.

Christopher Nolan's name being mentioned in this thread, no less than three times already, is no accident - people are craving for something that isn't derivative, but Hollywood is currently underserving them. I can't remember where, but I read some recap of the top grossing films of some decade recently, and the ONLY movies on the list that included totally original content (and not some sequel and/or reboot) were either written or directed by Nolan.

That's why I'm so invested in consuming the work of relatively unknown artists right now, in all forms (movies, stories, visual art, etc), it's just infinitely more interesting to sift through than the pablum and retreads I'd get via the mainstream.
