      Ok so I used to be a mega potterhead but ive been out of the game for a while. You guys keep referring to "The Book" (and that you havn't read it and don't know whats in it) now....if you're referring to "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find them" that was released alongside "Quidditch through the ages".....
      Its not a book
      not in the way you're thinking
      its a really small thing that basically lists a bunch of magical creatures that she didn't put in or barely mentions in the original series and gives a little description about them and where they live.
      that's it
      theres no story and no characters
      its supposed to be a real world copy of a textbook Harry has in his first year of school (I think)

      Just to Clarify guys as a hardcore fan who also felt this movie was disappointing, some things.
      First, the Bucket is an Unregistered Portkey. In the original books they talk about how Portkeys must be registered with the Ministry to ensure people can't leave the country illegally. (Portkeys are magic items that can teleport you to programmed locations at certain times, hence the stopwatch countdown)
      Second, some wizards/witches are more powerful through sheer talent. Just as essentially everyone can learn a sport, but others can be better at it.
      Third, wands are not the only way to cast Magic. There are even Sorcerers who don't use wands, staff users like Drumstrang. But I do find the lack of wands and verbal spells annoyed me.
      Fourthly, the Librian wasn't evil. She was the Guardian of the treasury and Newt and Tina lied to her about their identity. They were trespassing and the cats were for defense and capture. They only attack when they get attacked.Also, this was inside the Ministry of France, aka...the Wizard Government building...Meaning they could very well be terrorists for her knowledge thus she tried to capture them.

    ((Not really)) spoilers here... but we know how the pentalogy ends. In Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, Chapter 6, Pages 102-103, Harry reads a card from the back of a chocolate frog: "Considered by many to be the greatest wizard of modern times, Dumbledore is particularly famous for his defeat of the Dark wizard Grindelwald in 1945, for the discovery of the twelve uses of dragon's blood, and his work on alchemy with his partner, Nicolas Flamel. Professor Dumbledore enjoys chamber music and tenpin bowling." One can reasonably expect that there will be a battle in a WWII setting involving Dumblebro and Grindeldepp.

    The real problem with the movie is David Yates, the director. Just like the HP movies he directed, the fantastic beasts movies are horribly directed, weirdly edited, and have terrible pace. It's like he wants to confuse the audiences even more because the plot itself isn't complex enough. And dont get me started on the magic in fantastic beasts. The HP franchise was successful partly because magic was shown in a realistic fashion where you could easily relate to it. In Fantastic beasts, magic feels like you're dreaming, half of the stuff you see is so ridiculous and unbelievable that you just lose that connection plus no context is giving behind the magic, it's like they're making shit up along the way and we're supposed to accept it because magic. That's not how it's supposed to be.

      We all know spells weren't voldi's forte. He was kind of a mediocre spell caster, he relied more on ancient dark magic to accomplish his greatest feats, and on his followers hidden in high spheres of magic society. That's why he always shitted himself and escaped when confronting Dumbledore. Grinderwald it's a really talented spellcaster, he is a master mass manipulator and knows how to really use that OP wand (unlike voldemort). Also, HP saga was about a group of teenagers that barely even knew how to cast an Expeliarmus and had a hard time learning the patronus spell that only worked for dementors. So what did you expected? Obviously the magic is lame, but the mini duel between dumbledore and voldemort on book 5, that was awesome dude, and it protrays magic similar to this movie.
      TLDR: quit bitching, harry was a lame teenage wizard, so thats why nothing spectacular happened on the books an lead films.

    Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is a textbook that Harry had in his first year. The real world book is a copy of said textbook, with a special introduction by Albus Dumbledore.
    Grundlewend was defeated by Dumbledore in 1945. Rowling has said that Griswold's defeat happening at the end of the second world war was not a coincidence. Gruntwhistle himself had very much a "master race" ideology, and it's suggested that he influenced Hitler's actions along the same lines, perhaps indicating that Muggleborn witches and wizards were also victims of the holocaust. Girdleward was wielding the Elder Wand, a mythical artifact claimed to make its wielder unbeatable, but Dumbledore defeats him anyway, perhaps suggesting Guntleweld was caught off guard or was holding back. Before this movie, Dumbledore already had a reason for not wanting to face Girthwang, which was the death of his sister; he did not want to face the fact that either he, his brother, or Goiterwelt had caused her death.
    Edit: corrected Groinwart's name, I think I spelled it wrong.

  • @petesultimatemoviereviews2146

    Dumbledore has a sister because he fought Grindelwald, which ended up killing his sister. Now he has a brother, which kinda doesn't make any sense because it was only mentioned that he had a sister. Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald should have had more actual crimes from Grindelwald.

    As a huge Harry Potter fan who grew up with the books and movies, please don't be afraid to call out this travesty of a film for what it is. This movie was beyond frustrating to watch and I wanted to walk out three different times but stuck with it. The whole movie was a trainwreck INCLUDING THE THIRD ACT, let's not tiptoe around the issues. The whole movie sucked. Personally, I'd give the film maybe a 3/10; and it's only really that high because it had some nice visuals.

      Have to agree. This film was a massive eff you to the original HP books and movies. It's basically the Attack of the Clones or the Matrix Reloaded of the Fantastic Beasts series. I was shocked when AJ said they were going to do 3 more. 3 more of WHAT? But what makes me really mad is the continual disregard for lore, specifically the very liberal use of spells like Avada Kadava by Aurors, who are supposed to be the good guys. Avada Kadava is clearly labeled as dark magic and one of the most forbidden curses, yet Aurors throw it out like it's the most basic spell available to them. And they don't even encant it! Or any spells unless they just feel like it! There was a classical feel to the magic in HP that made it feel charming and part of a real wizarding world, but now magic is like a gun you can just fire at whoever. The comparison to the Star Wars Prequels is completely spot on...

    • @haydenhart9601

      im gonna be honest. The easiest explanation for this film is that it is missing the third act. That is what it feels like. A confusing as shit 1st act, a somewhat confusing but decent build up of a second act with a good finish but then it just cuts to credits.

    Pretty much agree with everything said here, there are a lot of plot holes. My personal favorite is when Newt and muggle friend talk to Creedence's "relative" whom they KNOW talked to Tina and WHERE he talked to her, but when they meet him he goes, "yes, I think I saw a woman like that, let me show you where I think I talked to her." They already know that information but listen to him anyway!
    Also this quickly turned into a 'member movie when they show off Hogwarts and only the little kids are sticking their heads out of the windows, Lita goes gallavanting around the school in all these one-off shots just to reach a desk, etc.

  • @epiccthulu
    @epiccthulu Před 5 lety +1

    (The goal of the ministry is to kill Credence, because just like Harry, Credence is part of a prophecy that inspires the rebellous purebloods. The ministry already proved they can walk into Hogwarts and legally curse Albus. If Albus finds Credence, the ministry will kill him)
    1.Credence was revealed to be an OBSCURUS. Which means he spent his life choking out his own magical identity. Newt was trying to convince Credence of a different path at the end of the last movie (if memory serves me correctly). The Obscurus, Credence, did not die at the end. . .he fled. The reason why Credence is so driven to find out who he is because he is an Obscurus. To find out who he is, to embrace is, is the opposite of what makes an Obscurus.
    2. Crazy Cat Lady. The thing to keep in mind here, is that every time you see a green flash, it is from the killing curse. One of the three unforgivable curses. In the Harry Potter timeline...these spells will land you in prison. What did you see this ministry of magic using? The killing curse. They even have an assassin in this movie. The cats, were called spirit familiars. Newt said, the moment the creatures appeared, that they are what the ministry uses as security. AND, he also said, they only attack when attacked FIRST. Which they were.
    3. Grindelwald's wand is the elder wand. The wand, which according to legend was created by Death itself, that bestows immense power to the spells cast with it by its owner. To be its owner you have to kill its previous owner, as explained in the original movies.
    I'm not going to go and analyze everything brought up, but to whoever reads this: The movie does explain itself rather well.

I like how Grindelwald is some kind of wizard Magneto but they didnt do much with him and based on the context the first movie it makes Queenie, Credence, and some other characters seem stupid. I may think its ok but i would not reccommend this unless you can turn off your brain.

      As for why they ended up in the tomb, yes Newt did know. He overheard Leta reading from the note that said where the box had been moved to. And even if he didn't hear her, he left the Ministry with Leta who would have asked him to take her there.
