***Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them Official Discussion*** Spoilers

I didn't mind how they made him look if they at least at some point go into the change from the original series to that.

My real complaint with him was his line delivery. If you've seen the Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland, he gave the lines like he was the Mad Hatter giving the "why is a raven" joke. If he had asked if they thought they could really hold him in the voice when he started the uprising in the Queen's courtyard, it would have been 10x better.

It was to obvious it was him. After the first scene they show his blonde hair cut and the the dude has same style just black... plus he was sketchy.

As for the reveal again kinda disappointed and was hoping it would have just been Someone assigned to a mission at grindewalds request. Still don't know how I feel about his look but do not mind Jonny depp at all

I agree for the most part. I didn't mind that being him per say, but it could have been revealed better. Giving the Deathly Hallows was a dead give away. I think Depp is a great choice, but it will depend on how they let him deliver the character (see my post above).

So we can assume dumbledores sister died because of the obscure or whatever.
So what did grindelwald want with one?

---

Yea, I think she was an obscuris, and that was what eventually killed her. That was a big schism between Grindelwald and Dumbledore. I believe Grindelwald wants to control that raw power. Him and Dumbledore were friends and constantly trying to find greater power (the teamed up to try and find the deathly hallows).

Also I like newt but is he the main character of this new series? It appears it will end with dumbledore and grindelwald fighting so what is newts role in the rest of the series? I like the bakery guy and want to see more of them but I don't see how they play apart in the grindelwald dumbledore war either. But I guess we will wait and see.

---

I believe they are the new band we will be following. I read that somewhere, but can't remember. I'm curious on what they hold because Grindelwald didn't have the Elder Wand at this time, which he should have. The big duel between Dumbledore and him is in like 1945 where Dumbledore wins the wand from him.

Sorry about your concave penis bro

If that's what helps you sleep at night.

How about go stink up another thread?

Another thing I was a little upset with was how incompetent Goldstein was. I mean, our main vision of what an Aura is was Madeye. Her being an Aura kind of shits on the skill it took to be one.

---

Eh, I didn't mind it. I liked her character overall. I was surprised at how powerful Newt was. He was kicked out of Hogwarts, but yet he could apparate very quickly and use non-verbal spells with ease.

I like how newt used his animals, that bird thing is OP haha

I agree the chick seemed a little weak to be an auror, but she did hold her own in that 1v1 vs grindlewald even if just for a second.

Does the movie work as a stand-alone film? Or do you have to know the HP world to enjoy it? TIA.

I mean, have you seen any Harry Potter stuff, or do you know absolutely nothing about it?

I know absolutely nothing about it. My son is a big fan so we are going tomorrow.

So, do we thing we are going to see Grindelwald get the elder wand in this series? Based on other timelines he should have it by now, which would mean that when Goldstein disarmed him, she would now be the owner of it.

---

yeah im confused, maybe when he escapes he will win it back? idk

Has there been anything to lead us to believe she will release more books?
haven't finished cured child but I wasn't a huge fan of that style.
maybe let someone write some books similar to HP but at the school in US?
idk I just love the universe and want more
