The writers could care less about what happened, and so they just jammed too many unneccessary "twists" into a movie that had no plot. They ignored blatant characteristics of certain characteristics (Queenie), gave Newt an unnecessary assistant that was never mentioned before for no reason, shoved an entirely unnecessary misunderstanding between Newt and Tina before they even developed their relationship to be anything more than "hey I'll hit you up if I'm ever back in New York," and rendered the ending of the first movie completely obsolete (Jacob never lost his memories even though he was shown to have done so at the end of the first movie, Credence never died, and Grindlewald escaped prison six months after being captured).

I get that they can be poor in terms of their gold, but they could have all the space they need. Everybody could. Having it be a complicated spell doesn't work for me. Stuff might be complicated, but you can still learn to do it. Anyone can learn how to do something complicated and technical with practice, which is of course why they go to school to learn this stuff. I'm sure it's been retconned on Pottermore at some point.

    That blue fire was modified FiendFyre, a super hard, super lethal spell that is easy to cast, but damn near impossible to control. Imagine FiendFyre as being the same as a nuclear reactor, pretty easy to start up, but if you lose control, shit hits the fan, which is why when Grindelwald left it got crazy, because he wasn’t there to keep it in check anymore. It always takes the form of a animal (hence the dragon). It’s super hard to control which is why seeming him control and manipulate it to his liking that well is really fucking impressive which speaks volumes as to how powerful grindelwald is. Although it should have been clearly explained in the movie exactly what was going on. Only die hard Harry Potter fans would have any clue as to what was going on.

    I'm sorry but I was watching this at work during my lunch break and when you said 'I shall call his return the "Clearwater Revival" ' I literally spat my drink out over my keyboard :')

      Uh... Yeah, because it was foreshadowing Credence's phoenix. Fawkes is Dumbledore's phoenix and is not seen in this movie. XD Also, you can't really foreshadow something that we've seen before.

    I actually thought the first child murder scene was well done. Casting without chanting is really dangerous especially with complex spells. So he's essentially risking suicide with avada kedavra if he gets distracted. Voldemort was much more careful and meticulous compared to Grindelwald. It shows the difference between them

    That barrier in the beginning wasn't Grindelwald killing the fly. It was a barrier used by the Ministry to keep him in that chair. The fly was to show you that the barrier was there and kills things that touch it.
    "All that magic at his finger tips and Grindelwald lets gravity decide this." Except he wasn't trying to kill him. Did you not notice how he dropped the wand first? And then as it was falling he slowed it down so buddy could catch it and stop himself?
    15:35 It was the big cat monster.. Newt explains that it has this power earlier on in the movie when he mentions it can travel large distances.
    It's like you don't even watch the moves you're critiquing.

    You forgot that canonically Dumbledore is the transfiguration teacher and Minerva McGonagall hasn't even been to Hogwarts as a student as of 1927, she doesn't until the '30s, and I'm still salty about that even though I watched this movie months ago.

      and you’ve forgotten that this channel covers CINEMA, in this case, specifically movies. which means details left in books that arent explained in the movie or in a previous movie, are ignored.

    The close ups are clever because they're awkward, so they convey how awkward Newt feels in social situations like that.
