I typically enjoy the movies that come out of it, though in all honesty I think the last year or two have seen more duds than any others. As for the other stuff... I don't think we should really evaluate a studio based on its brand and who it tries to appeal to. What matters more is the finance behind it, what is the model that allows A24 to put out weirder or more unique movies than Disney or Universal or whatever, and is that changing? Last year, they got a 255 million dollar investment and took the guy behind it on board. They are set to release a huge Civil War epic by Alex Garland pretty soon. When you make movies like that, expensive, large-scale movies instead of off-beat character-focused stories, you need a lot of cash. And people who are likely to provide you with that kind of cash usually want to have a say in where their money goes (e.g. compare Eggers' movies produced by A24 at the height of their independence, and The Northman). I think that the next couple of years will see A24 become less of an indie darling and more of a normal studio like Searchlight, not overnight and not immediately on the same level, but it's hard to see how the things they've become known for can fit with their new ambitions and the model that they require.
