15 Very Dumb Things in Fantastic Beasts 2

Can’t-spells is my new name for all you guys in the comments section.

[SemiIocon]

Are the snakes behind you also secretly women?

[KyleRayner]

It would be pretty amazing if Newt didn't give a damn about Grindelwald's politics and was solely in it to avenge the lizard.

If I was going to do a drive-by movie spoiler, I'd just yell "Grindelwald vapes World War II!" out the window and leave them to chew on that for a bit.

"Can you imagine if they just stopped making these movies?"
~Jenny Nicholson (2018)

[Wrynwynn]

I do like this movie’s implication that when Mcgonagall turned into a cat on the first day of transfiguration it was the magical equivalent of her standing up and doing a flip.

[sanityplusmilkshakes]

Professor Mcgonagall: Divining is a notoriously imprecise art.
Grindlewald: *vapes and predicts the Manhattan Project*

[katherinealvarez]

I'll be honest- if the movies were just about Newt caring for his animals and being a wizard Doctor Dolittle, I would love them.

[duytran]

Dumbledore: "I can't move against Grindelwald. It has to be you, Newt"
Newt: "Why me? What reason do I have to fight him?"
Dumbledore: "He killed a lizard"
Newt: *_apparates to Paris_*

[hothotheat]

“Imagine if they just stop making these movies right in the middle like Divergent?”

I don’t have to imagine💀

[Fitzroyfallz]

Fantastic beasts should have done what it said on the tin. A movie about a kooky dude who just wants to travel and help out animals.

[PhilosophyTube]

The Crimes of Grindelwald:
- Exceptional cruelty to a lizard
- Assembly without a permit
- Having a gay lover in England before 1967
- Wand theft
- That moustache

[perpetuallyuncomfortable]

I was so expecting the circus to be more Newt-centric. That was the perfect opportunity to have him rescue some mistreated animals or illustrate one of the shady parts of wizard society. But it was just another throwaway scene to a movie full of them.

[karsonbollinger]

I think what’s even better than the baby dying in the actual shipwreck is the fact that the baby did in fact make it into the lifeboat…. But then that lifeboat also sank

[raventrunite]

‘newts brother- clancy? i feel like his name was clancy’
newts brother: *is named theseus*

[dopeysponge]

Two most disturbing things to my mind:
1) Two babies get killed in this movie. TWO.
2) Half elves are a thing. That they just brush over. Someone out there is screwing house elves. Why?

[leavealoner]

This doesn't even talk about the fact that Minerva McGonagall was teaching on at hogwarts about 15 years before she was born...

[ad-sd-vids]

“Grindelwald is a nazi who wants to stop ww2, and queenie, a Jewish woman who can read minds, joins him”
Lol

[LindsayEllisVids]

By far the weirdest reveal in this movie is that the Titanic makes a cameo.

[WordsFlowMagnetic]

Ringleader: This man may LOOK normal....but he has a blood curse. He can hula hoop. But ONE DAY he will not be able to STOP HULA HOOPING

Man: sadly hula hoops while love interest looks on in anger

[shytendeakatamanoir]

The thing is that there are actually different terms for muggles around the world. (In French, it's moldu for example). It would have been a great opportunity to show the work of the numerous translators all around the world. Paying respect to those who helped making the franchise worldwide, instead of making unimaginative made up words.
