Same…one of my most used lenses for my Z6, an old Nikon 17-35 2.8, is not weather sealed lol, but there’s the 5% of times where it’d be nice for the body to be weather sealed.

As the poster above said, the cinema look is hand-crafted. I would add dramatic lighting to your list. Think of the great Italian chiaroscuro painters from the XVII century. By nailing that artistic expression you're 99% into cinematic. Lots of light makes things uninteresting, didactic.

Whoops, we did blow right by that focusing direction one didn't we lol. I just automatically go to super takumars when I think of awesome character, slower, and readily available primes for cheap, they're the kings. To be fair, it's in the list of preferred characteristics, so maybe theres some wiggle room for the right set. If it's a requirement, I'll double down on my Olympus OM recommendation and also throw out SSC Canon FD lenses, there's a 17mm 4, 28mm 3.5, 35mm 3.5, and a 50mm 3.5 macro and 100mm f/4 macro. Bonus/wide lens could be the 24-35mm 3.5 L which might be just over budget.
