I was having the same issue in both realms of entertainment.
What it really was is that the stuff being produced in the lanes that I frequented were basically all the same thing. Predictable. Stale.
When I turned to indie games and looked for movies that were not big Hollywood slopfests I found a new enjoyment.

It's one thing to have watched or played something you have enjoyed before...it's another when you go to something new and it feels just like a bunch of other stuff you've watched or played before and that's when the boredom hits. You're predicting accurately the things that will happen when the experience is supposed to be new. The special effects don't seem special because the question of
>Wow! How did they do that?!
is quickly answered with
>They animated it in a computer.
