I'd argue that good landscape photography requires a good amount of planning and a lot of tricks in addition to get a good end product.
Ultimately, I do think the appealing aspect for landscape photography is to capture either a moment, like what other anons have mentioned with sunrise or sunset, or to just provide a sense of a location.
Street photography... ergh... I hate the idea that it's just B&W filters. The best street photography wasn't even shot on digital, and the idea that street photography is exclusively monochromatic is just... dumb.
I personally feel like the dumbest genre of photography are portraits, especially studio portraits.
It's just a gear fest. You get your model or whomever to do one of the poses you tell them to do, set up some kind of background, and then the flash strobes, and then you get this... clinical photography, that feels like it's something regurgitated from a textbook.
Portraiture is just too artificial. You might as well just be a painter, and work from photo references.
