    The first one is pretty fun, the second is a baffling inexplicable mess, and the third one is so incredibly libshit while also being incomprehensible to the point where I’m sad they cancelled the franchise because I need to see where they go after “Wizard Hitler No. 1 is defeated by the power of vooooting”

      The best stuff was the quirky funny magical creature stuff that the film is named after - unfortunately they doubled down on the E D G Y B O Y plot lines in the sequels. In another universe Fantastic Beasts is a pure kid’s movie about a British guy on a magical adventure and it’s really good.

      After watching the second one, I’ve pretty adamantly refused to watch anything else in the series. A shame. They had potential.
