They're super mediocre. But I can still waste some time sitting in front of them and enjoying the old-timey clothes and visuals and not want to bash my head in out of hatred for them.

Also, we have to support them if we want more big/mid-budget detective movies.

Also, tbh, Poirot has never really been one of my favorite detectives in the first place, so.

I watched the first in the cinema and the next two on streaming, so I did pay for them.

We absolutely do not need to support mediocre vanity projects. We should support good movies, like Knives Out. But also, like Knives Out, if the movie is good, the audience will follow. Knives Out is a also clearly a big factor in a lot of new cosy mystery content being greenlit. So I think it's fine to vote with our feet against Branagh's Poirot and for better content.

Hollywood studios aren't just gonna stop making mediocre movies. We just have to choose which kind of mediocrity we find the most preferable - personally I'd rather it be golden age detective mysteries than superhero movies.

Genres in Hollywood are cyclical. We are seeing the decline of superhero movies now BECAUSE studios started making every single one mediocre, and the audience stopped caring. And now we're seeing more in interest in midbudget movies like romcoms again. Point is, supporting mediocrity does not get you what you want.
