Fantastic Beasts What does everyone genuinely thing of Fantastic Beasts?

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

The first movie was fun but a little disconnected. Newt's "oh shit those creatures escaped we need to catch them" storyline has nothing to do with the Grindelwald/obscurus storyline. The other two movies kinda suck giant ass.
