Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald (David Yates, November 16th, 2018) Movie

More concerned with the crimes of Johnny Depp tbh. Only saw the first one because I didn't think he'd be in it. Won't be seeing this one or any of the others.

 

I want to be excited for this, but the first was just so lackluster. That and I can't stand Johnny Depp.

 

I hope he manages to kill Voldemort this time

 

The first one was so disappointing. Not sure how they plan on stretching this out into like 5 films

 

I really enjoyed the first and have high hopes for this one. Trailer is certainly exciting.

 

The first film was ok but it wasn't inspiring at all and didn't give me many reasons to see a sequel. Stretching it out to so many films is going to be interesting and concerns me even more. I probably will see this one but I have very little desire to do so - very strange for a Harry Potter spin off franchise! I adore the HP books.

I still wish the first one was actually about Newt Scamander trying to find and research magical creatures. I think that kind of adventure film would have been much more appealing to me than what we have. They still could have introduced some of the concepts and ideas using that backdrop.

The most intriguing part of the first film for me was seeing a movie in the 'Harry Potter' universe where you had no idea what was going to happen.

 

I actually really enjoyed the first one a lot. Not excited about Depp, but will probably just have to accept that.

 

Yeah I’m gonna go ahead and say I’m stoked. I liked the first one better than all 8 HP films and i say that as a massive HP nerd. This looks fantastic and fun

 

was kinda hoping they'd pump the brakes on jacob in this one, and the first trailer seemed to hint at that. definitely doesn't seem that's the case now.

 

I am sure he will have a little less to do this time around... but i like him quite a bit. I think he brought a good amount of charm to the role.

 

I think this looks like it’ll be better than the first.

Also, we get the answer to Harry’s question to Dumbledore regarding what he really sees when he looks in the Mirror of Erised.

 

Wasn’t it revealed to be his sister in the last book?

 

Yep

 

Welp, forgot about that. Well, now we know what young Dumbledore sees.

 

fucking unsubscribe me from that reveal

 

eh

Voldemort’s Nagini will get a proper origin story in Crimes of Grindelwald

 

my dudes were on point.

 

Harry only guesses that he would have seen Ariana in the mirror in Deathly Hallows. We also know that what you see in the mirror can change over time (Harry sees his family first, then sees himself saving the stone by books end)

 

Thank you, I feel vindicated! :)

 

Saw this earlier today, it's precisely what you expect. It's overloaded, it's discombobulated, and yes, there's blatant setup for later films. Over than a couple decent setpieces, and Jude Law and Dan Fogler being good in this... I'm gonna say hell no

 

It’s a shame because it felt like the first one existed to set up future films too. I’m not fussed about seeing this but my wife might want to so we shall see!

 

read a particular spoiler for this that sounds laughably bad
