    I WANT TO MAKE IT VERY CLEAR that Newt is the perfect hero for HIS series, The Fantastic Beasts Films. As I said in the video, his character would not work in the original series or any other series. Enjoy the video :)

      Queenie is is an awful character in my opinion. I can never take her seriously because her character just seems like it’s meant to be a joke and also she’s so annoying especially when she’s around Jacob. I hate the fact that everyone straight up ignores the fact that she literally enchanted Jacob to force love upon him and then acted like she did nothing wrong by making up terrible excuses. I love Fantastic Beasts but she makes some scenes unbearable to watch.

He tried his best to be kind to everyone and was very respectful to everyone.

    Perhaps Newt is a mature outlook on the trio. The flaws that are outwardly shown by the trio are usually a result of immaturity, whereas Newt, as an adult, is far more mature. Additionally, Newt might have a less arrogant attitude due to being expelled from Hogwarts, hence, he’s a very humble person, like Hagrid, because they appreciate the opportunities they get in life.

      I agree. She should have wrote books about Newt first and then adapted it for the movies, not the other way around. Newt would have been great as a book character, better even than just a movie/play character. I would have loved those books. I wish she would have done that. Why didn't she do that? It was the same with the Cursed Child. I think it would have been so much better as a book, but she insisted on it being a play instead. What is up with that? Was she just tired of writing her characters into books, so she went the route that involves less writing. Makes sense I guess. She wrote 7 books that were over 300 pages. That's a lot of writing. Still sucks though that these characters weren't given more fledged out stories. I would have liked to know more about there lives and thoughts, etc.

    Newt is easily one of my favorite characters in the Harry Potter universe. I see a bit, if not a lot, of myself in him.

      I mean that in the movies there are so many mysteries about how he grew up and his time in the factory, without talking to human beings for years. In the movie it looked like he was so used to being alone (talking to no one) sooooooo he had no one teaching him how to act in different situations so he was pretty childish (not that it’s bad). His life just seems so complicated and fun at the same time, something fun to think about. :)

    The book Harry is more similar to Newt than this video makes it sound - they're both very private. Harry doesn't seek glory. He has that one moment when he wants to land with the flying car so that the whole school sees him, but other than that - he hates the spotlight.
    He rushes into action whenever possible, but he doesn't have any ulterior motive - he does what he thinks needs to be done.
    That's what he's about - doing what needs to be done. Especially in the later books.
    He has "a saving-people-thing", but that's not the same as seeking glory.
    But this is a brilliant video, thanks so much!

      This.. Harry doesn't seek power for his own sake. Dumbledore tells Harry.. not an exact quote.. how few could look in the mirror of erised and see only their family when most would want power. Harry's life is not what he would have chosen, even if he's the chosen one, it's been thrust upon him.. to defeat evil. Just like Newt does not desire power, he only wants to protect and do the right thing.

It´s not his main reason, but there´s one sentence saying he and Ron are happily imagining how stunned everyone will be when they land right in front of the castle. I also forgot he imagines how great it would be to become a school champion in the Triwizard Tournament and how Cho Chang would admire him. But the books make it pretty clear that those are just fleeting moments of ambition (that every teenage boy has), not Harry´s mindset.

    Newt Scamander is honestly my FAVORITE character out of all the Harry Potter series. He does not display toxic masculinity, and is unafraid to show his soft and sensitive side which most people will consider a sign of weakness among males. And it is his selflessness, empathy, strong sense of justice, and his ability to stay true to himself that makes him one of the most likable characters for me. He is so underrated and i wish Harry Potter fans would stop comparing Newt and the spin-off series to the original Harry Potter series, because they were meant to be different!!
