Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald
If you are sensitive to light, or if you’re epileptic, you might have some issues with a few scenes.
If you get motion sick, there are several swirling panning scenes in this film.
•SMALL BIT OF SPOILER RANT STARTS BELOW•
It’s been a bit more than 24 hours now, and I’m still seriously so broken over a strong feminine character being turned into... well... what Queenie is now. Seriously what the fuck. They did her dirty! That tea had to have had a drug/potion in it... and she knew something was wrong! It feels so out of character for her to have done what she did, so I really hope it was drugged tea and not awful writing to create extra drama.
And Leta, she was a girl who never knew love, and can’t forgive herself for the awful thing she had done as a child. She deserved so much better too 💔 What she did to Grindelwald is ICONIC! I hope she isn’t gone gone, and that we’ll get to see more of her... I high key relate to her so hard and I need her to still be alive. Girls with terrible childhoods unite!
Between Queenie’s wrong doing and Leta’s horrific past surfacing I nearly left the theater crying. I wish someone would have told me to bring tissues!
I’m also still low key upset about McGonagall, whom canonically wasn’t born yet, being a professor in this film. It makes no sense, even if she used a time turner to be there.
I don’t know if this has been said yet, but the film did feel a bit like a filler film. I think the next will be much more heavy, and have a better less of a “Flight of the Bumblebee” like storyline. I guess we’ll see if I’m right when the next films come out though!
(These are just some of my thoughts and observations, please don’t come at me with torches and pitchforks!)
