Missing Background Art post 7.14

After the 7.14 update background art seems to be missing when viewing a movie’s info page. It’s not clear if this was a mistake or if it was intentional. But current it looks like a bug.

This is how the info page would appear before:

This is how it appears now:

I don’t see why this page cannot have the vibrant background and the background art in the same place it was before. Currently, it looks like there is a lot of wasted space. If the background art removal was intentional it might make sense to redesign the view with that change in mind. The current view appeares to have been designed with the background art in mind.

Since Hulu also does background colors based on the movie I went ahead and grabbed a screenshot from their app to hopefully spark some ideas on how this could be updated to make better use of that space.
