“He doesn’t want the glory for what he does; he’s very humble” it’s cause he’s a hufflepuff! Hufflepuff house usually accepts the kindest, humblest, and most earnest wizards that love to care for people and other creatures. I wish that they got more representation in the original series, but I’m happy with Newt getting to be a protagonist because many people wouldn’t see a Hufflepuff as the main character. Overall, great video Morgan!

My only issue was the miscasting of johny depp. He just isn't a grindlewald.

[@orionaugustwatson]

Newt , Queenie , Tina and of course Jacob are excellent additions to the franchise. It's a shame Newt was sidelined in tbe convoluted second movie Also Newt is a quintessential Hufflepuff. He's confident in his personality. The trio being literal kids made sense to have their flaws. If Newt had the same flaws it would be cringey ,since he's grown up. But Newt as an adult Hufflepuff makes sense to be likeable and yet a somewhat outcast . We need more Newts ,the accepting ,hard working and kind. He's non judgmental , honest and an empathetic wizard . Something we really need now

[@indedgames4359]

He wasnt sidelined though. You clearly didnt understand why he is the protag.how would dumbledore work? Its established he avoids The fight against grindelwald until 1945. The SoD Do t count her. That Was David yates idea for cinematic reasons and jo and Steve made it work by maling the Motivation clearly be anout savibg credence. Afterwards it is however Not about saving a famaliemember but everyone and that plus the fact he is scared of the truth of who killed Ariana makes him avoid Grindelwald again. Newt is the perfect Protagonist her. Hmhe can go out why dumbledore is in hogwarts and jo didnt want to write in hogwarts anymore. Hell she swore to herself never a potter book again thats why sje prppaly wont fi is fb as novels.

I liked the first movie, but I really didn’t like Crimes of Grindewald. You have your own opinion, and I have mine, but I hate the second movie.

[@jasonle9596]

The first movie was great. The second one was at the least very sloppy. Adding by last count 10 subplots including the main story felt too much and was all over the place so we barely had enough time to enjoy the scenes and story if they keep changing the mood constantly. I as a Harry Potter fan managed to understand the plot of Crimes of Grindelwald but it does not mean I enjoy it as I know it would be confusing even from a normal audience's perspective.

[@permeus2nd]

I really don't get why so many people dislike these films, they're Great and they expand the setting, before it was mostly just Northern England but now it's the entire world that's covered in Witchcraft and wizardry and we get to see all the places that potter could never go to because he is under aged (even if dean spent a lot of his time on set drunk or hungover) I personally cant wait to see what happens next and were we go (I believe it may be Rio de Janeiro based on the JKR hint from a few years back) And now for that massive Eliphant that sitting looking at me, yes JKR has said a bunch of extremely dumb crap lately but here is the think the setting has become bigger than her, and most of the stars of the films have come out to say she is wrong, the setting seems to understand the world more than she does. You can dislike her and vigorously disagree with her ideas and still love the setting its films and its books, don't let the nonsense she was talked about destroy the things that bring you joy, this world needs all the joy it can get, and remember as a favourite character of mine said ""the world could always use more heroes"" So if you disagree with the stuff JKR said remember it and act apon it be better, I think that's something most of the heros in the potter setting can agree with, find a way to be a better person don't let hate and fear win.

[@rddunn3413]

I agree. The global wizarding community is barely touched on, because we focus on Voldemort, who only tried to take on the UK. Grindelwald was a global threat, a global problem and expands the world we love. I personally prefer Fantastic Beasts over Harry Potter.

[@rddunn3413]

@@vishalSharma-ol9fl I think it's because they would be able to blend in more with the Muggle community as large groups of isolated people would be rather suspicious. They could use magic to hide themselves but still blend in, like the trips in London. Also, at least 4 of the 11 magic schools are in USA and Europe, so chances are that more characters like Grindelwald and Dumbledore would arise. Grindelwald was globally a threat because in Harry Potter, they stuck to the UK, but he was found in New York and it also branched out to Franch, Austria and likely Germany and Rio de Janeiro.

[@Hildervinge]

I was so amazed when I first saw this movie! I didnt really care for the Harry Potter ones to much, since I thought they missed the feel and complexity of the books - but this new franchise has just that, the feel from the books. The characters are more explored, the way the camera moves and how the writing/story is the focus instead of the special-effects. Its more complex and gives the same sense of wonder that the HP books gave. I was so amazed walking out of the cinema, I could not grasp the hate it got. But again, I never liked the HP movies to much, so maybe thats why. However, I do like the plot in crimes of Grinelwald, I was not to happy about the overpowered magic, to me that was weird. But I am looking foreward to follow the story as it goes, and I love Newt. Eddie is my celebrity crush, so that was just perfect for me.

[@adrianwagner8202]

I really appreciate how this movie tried to stand on its own feet without relying on cheap fanservice, cameos and obvious references. It's such a shame the sequel went in the other direction.

[@mike7887]

What makes “cheap fan service” ......sounds like any type of service is cheap service then. They had Minerva and Nicolas Flamel and Nagani. Minerva has 10 seconds on screen - lovely! cool! let’s leave it at that. Nicolas Flamel has his cameo, albeit a big cameo - and although I found the character design of him to be creepy, I thought the inclusion fit perfectly, especially with the location the film was set (Flamel being French) and I thought the inclusion of Naginis back story is actually fantastic. Beautifully tragic and I’m anticipating to see what transpired with her before Voldemort got involved with her. I seriously SERIOUSLY do not get why on Earth there’s annoyance about any references or fan service in these films? Guarantee you’d all be beggin for it if there was non. I seem to remember the first fantastic beasts getting sited as not feeling like the Harry Potter films. Nothing was cheap about things they included. It’s the wizard of world. I’m just glad we’re out of New York - just didn’t feel magical - keep it in Europe

[@micheleminor1106]

Good video on your take on Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Your view on the Shaw family made me think that we could see Langdon Shaw in future Fantastic Beasts movies or that he would be spoken of as a writer who writes about the wizarding world in a fictional way. After Crimes of Grindelwald Jacob could meet up with him and tell him about the wizarding world, in a fictional way of course that he could use in his books and even giving him the idea to write a book where a witch marries a mortal (no maj) which would eventually get adapted into a movie and at least partially inspires a TV show that would be similar to the American TV show Bewitched and the actresses that they get to play the witch roles are blonde like Queenie. Jacob would use Langdon's books as a way to change American wizarding law so that wizards and no majs can be together and Tina would support that. This would also mirror Newt's relationship to his older brother in the first film where he is still in his older brother's shadow but he would become better known than his brother in the future since he did write one of the textbooks for Hogwarts. In Fantastic Beasts Langdon is still behind his older brother's shadow who is a U.S. Senator but he can become famous in his own right for writing his books and even the TV show that is loosely based on his book be well known and loved by the American public even during Harry's time and beyond. The American TV show Bewitched was in reruns in the 1990s which would be during Harry Potter's time. The American TV show Bewitched premiered in the fall of 1964 and Rappaport's Law was repealed in 1965.

The first time I watched this movie I thought it was so good. It introduces the American Wizard World in a different time and is nostalgic for fans of the original, while making it so that the audience doesn't have to watch or read HP to understand what is going on. I love that the main characters are adults who are out in the real world. I also think it works because Rowling wrote the script. Queenie and Jacob remind me of Andromeda/Ted and Lupin/Tonks with the forbidden romance trope. I just hope Rowling won't give them the same ending as one of the couples. Newt is a great lead overall, especially because of how relatable he is. Also, he's a Hufflepuff!!

[@jocelynejergensen5326]

I love this movie, and Grindelwald. I don't get why everyone thinks Grindelwald was awful. I loved them both! It's the 'middle' movie in a franchise. People said the same thing about "The Two Towers" and "Desolation of Smaug" in the LOTR Trilogies. It's a filler movie, it fills in the blanks, and continues the story.

Finally....😍😍😍

[@sonnyfox60]

For me crimes of grindlewald didn’t fill in many gaps. Instead created new ones

[@jocelynejergensen5326]

@@sonnyfox60 There are still a few more movies to answer those new gaps. So give them some patience and time.

[@sonnyfox60]

@@jocelynejergensen5326 true, maybe the other films can raise how good crimes of grindlewald is as everything that happens in it starts to make sense

Because Johnny depp played the role ..

I’m happy you have this movie another go. It truly is a good movie. Many people are so quick to judge. Sometimes it may take 2, 3, lol maybe 4 views to really form an option that can stick. Enjoyed this video 😀

Love to hear this analysis of why Newt's social awkwardness is actually an advantage to his likeability. Most people can't tell but for over 20 years of my life I suffered from pretty severe social phobia, and a lingering sense of social difficulty still plagues me. I can certainly relate to that aspect of Newt's personality...

[@lyndsaybrown8471]

It is nice how Newt Scamander, an adult, is more well-rounded than Harry, Ron, and Hermione, children.

[@p7ytzxq]

Both harry and newt are amazing, but newt is much more likable and relatable.

The FIRST Fantastic Beasts movie is great. Newt is the perfect protagonist, a fish out of water story, with the quirkiness of Monk (Tony Shaloub) toned down enough to be more cute than cringe. Not that it's the perfect story, it's a fun, mystery ride for adults. It also contrasts sooo much to CofG that it makes the 2nd movie awful in comparison. Also, i know the alphabet community is all offended by JK spouting science and biology. She's not my role model, but i think we can cut her some slack for not jumping head first into THAT shallow end of anti-science by Bend The Knee bullying threats.

I always believe a good story takes more than just a good leading character. A compelling villain is the key to a successful franchise. Sorry not being a HP series' fan bc I never feel a solid presentation of Voldemore's stories on the screen. Yet, Grindelwal is another level. He's more than a crazy bad guy but a man with his vision while using wrong approaches.

Honestly fantastic beasts it really good anyways I love the films and I’m exited for the next movie! How cant people like the films

[@bens5925]

Both fantastic beasts movies are amazing and I’m so hyped for fb3. I get why some don’t like the second one but I love it anyway

[@stephaniem6482]

I love the double meaning of fantastic beasts referring to the creatures, but also Credence and Grindelwald (and Dumbledore). They're all fantastic and beastly in their own ways.

[@berrypop33]

Also, these movie soundtracks are BEAUTIFUL

[@alynarobles5005]

Hey MovieFlame can you review Fantastic Beast: The Crime of Grindelwald? Because I wanted to see how bad it is even it's at the bottom of the list

[@ladycplum]

I have a question-Tina disarmed Graves (Grindelwald) after Newt captured him. Shouldn't that have made HER the owner of the Elder Wand? We'e already seen in both the Deathly Hallows book and the first film that you don't have to be using it for you to disarmed and lose its allegiance. The wand was still buried with Dumbledore when Harry disarmed Draco at Malfoy Manor, yet its allegiance switched to Harry.

I love the content and information provided in these videos. Morgan really puts so much hard work and his talent into these videos that they are spectacular! I really wish you get a 3 million subscribers! Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them film is really new term to the Wizarding World as the audiences go through different type of wizarding government and mainly that the story takes place in the muggle world. I really appreciate Jk Rowling for such characters, plot amd twists. I just wish more magic should have been shown in those films. Movie Flame and Morgan you are the best and you put so much effort in your videos, salute to you,! By the way your puppy is mind-blowingly cute 😍!

[@alexs.9912]

The reason for different pronunciations is that -wald is a German word. It means forest. In German the W is pronounced like the English V. Rowling probably intended the V pronunciation.
