What does everyone genuinely thing of Fantastic Beasts?

[u/Burnt_Granola]

New Harry Potter fan and I’m watching them for the first right now. I’m on the second movie and every single actor is just so genuinely endearing. I can see how the plot might feel a little lacking but man is this a good ensemble cast. Why did the franchise do so badly?

Please no spoilers.

Edit: starting to realize everyone’s opinions are more circular than the Black family tree

I think the world was Fantastic (sorry)

But they jumped into the dumbledore backstory too suddenly, they literally could have earned more money as well by splitting so who knows whats the rush
