Some nut I know posted that too. There's a whole subculture of conspiracy nuts that's about finding patterns that don't exist. Like how corona means crown which something something has to do with absolute control by the elites or whatever.

Brains with high level pattern recognition were a mistake.

I actually had not looked this up.

The name refers to the characteristic appearance of virions (the infective form of the virus) by electron microscopy, which have a fringe of large, bulbous surface projections creating an image reminiscent of the solar corona or halo.

These were good movies for watching not at the cinema but in a room with friends, because we could speculate actively about what the deal is and also different details different people caught. And then interrupt one another with stuff we missed because we were talking over it. Great family Christmas viewing, very dense, solid flicks. Flicks where accurately figuring stuff out before it's explicitly revealed is a pleasant reward, not a disappointment. You feel that puzzle-solving thrill as, like Blanc says, the plot points in flight arc towards the only intelligent conclusion and land right at your feet.

Apparently Craig and Johnson are contracted for a third movie and they'll keep going after that if they can continue working together. I'm into it. The only thing I muse about is what they have to bring to the formula which wasn't already there. The parlor room whodunnit, yeah, that's pre-existing. The southerner gentleman sleuth? Craig is a delight to watch but he's not exactly the most original creation if you see what I'm saying. Maybe the real novel angle is the sheer pantheon of horrible people the modern world has to offer over the Poirot era.
