I think it's because the way the advertise movies now is terrible. Go look at trailers of the past and it's always "in a world gone mad only one man can stop the terrorists from blowing up New York" yeah I know it's cheesy but at least I know what the movies about. These days it's 300 cuts per minute and now it's anyone's guess what genre it is.
Downsizing is the quintessential example of the switch and bait of modern trailers. What an incredibly boring movie that was.
