I know the question is a bit vague, but I'm hoping people will interpret this however they see fit an give their own experiences.

To be honest, I'm struggling a bit with this right now and would enjoy reading others' experiences.

I'm still working my way up to listening to symphonies. I've mainly been listening to sonatas, concertos, and things like quartets and stuff. But of the few symphonies I've listened to so far, that's one thing I noticed. They reminded me a lot of all the movie soundtracks I've heard throughout my life.

It sounds stupid since soundtracks are commonly played by a full orchestra, so what else what they sound like. But I just never made that connection before that they're basically modern day classical music haha.

That's a good idea though, thanks! I'll mix in some soundtracks to my classical music exploration.
