Considering that they created "Arrival of a Train" in 1896, we can understand that the industry and the movie making process has changed a lot in 124 years. I think that if you bring them out of 1896, they will be shocked to see how people make movies these days.
I think that they would be shocked because:
a) the movies usually have a meaning and stand as some sort of political or emotional message. b) there is a lot of CGI that is used to make imaginary or non existent characters exist in a realistic way such as "groot" from the GOTG movies. c) people today use movies to get their own imaginations out in the world and it isn't just for the entertainment of the audience anymore. As sad as that may be, it's true that movies today are always made to prove something or bring up an issue by the people involved so it can be argued by everyone (basically some people make controversial movies just for clout and not 'cause they actually care about that particular issue" so this may not be digestible to the Lumiere Brothers since they actually loved doing what they did for personal reasons, if that makes sense.
I think that if the Lumiere brothers were still here then they would make movies to connect with the audience. More emotional than political. Something that amazes people who are foreign maybe or poor or rich or anything else.
Claude Monet is very famous for his series of paintings where he would draw the same subject over and over again but in different lighting so they would all be slightly unique (Ex. His Lily Pads) His brushstrokes are very visible in his paintings and that’s what makes them so interesting. While they do focus on actual subjects, they are more blurred renditions and thus are not hyper realistic. Therefore your answer would be “some show objects at different times of the day or during different seasons.”
