Crimes of Grindewald Thread (Spoilers)

Just got out. I enjoyed it quite a bit and oddly enough really liked Johnny Depp as Grindelwald. I wasn’t expecting that.



The end revelation was a bit of a retcon from what we know in the books, but I’m not totally buying it yet.

I have no desire to see this. The last one was thoroughly underwhelming and unimaginative. It seems to have been shot out in one draft and approved by a hack producer. Granted this is par for the course for Warner Bros these days, but you’d think they’d put some effort forward in hopes this could last. Apparently this one is even worse, so no thanks. I’m not going to be rewarding them with my cash for spineless hackery.

He melted about The Grinch. He's an ignorant fool.

Saw it last night. My wife and I both fell asleep watching it.

If you dont see it, then how will you be able to re-write the entire script and devise a new plot, so you can post it here and brag on your cinematic visionary prowess?

I've read the reviews and I know what happens. I'm not letting JK frick with me again after the Cursed Child. I want to know how bad something in this universe is before I spend my money on it, spoilers be damned.

That being said, critics definitely disliked it. Sounds like the twists and turns throughout make little sense and are uninteresting with uninteresting new characters. I liked the first one, but JK has to offer better stories than things that barely pass as fan fiction. I'll likely wait for this on HBO.

This. Most of what happens doesn't feel like what should have happened or what the characters (as we know them) would actually have done. You could tell the writers were shoehorning their actions in there and not setting them up appropriately.
