Are all photo's just hackneyed (I mean professional ones - term used loosely)?

I think some of the forced perspective photos are interesting. The ones that make real scenes look like they came from a train model. But, nothing new under the sun, right? It sells more coffee table books to come up with a slightly different angle, and moment, and juxtaposition, and call it a new perspective, so people who don't have a ton of photography experience will buy them, and pay for the artist's flat and film, than labeling it: 'Hackneyed old stuff that you've seen a hundred times before, please pay for my recycled old tat.' - doesn't it? :)
