    Default The Secrets of Dumbledore (2022)



    The second one was a disappointment but I'm hoping this one picks up the slack.

    I actually thought the second one was ok, but I don't need five of these like they seem to be planning to do.

    The second while certainly not as fun as the first it wasn't a bad flick in my eyes so I'm pretty optimistic for the third as it seems to have more of the humor that made me love the original.

    2nd one was pretty bad.

    This movie basically looks like a "soft reboot" where they basically sideline a bunch of the OG cast (at least temporarily) while they revamp the plot and try to get people interested.

    Wonder how JK Rowling's fall from grace and (relative) tarnishing of the Harry Potter franchise will affect the movie?

    Joss Whedon did not tarnish Buffy or the role he played in getting MCU off the ground

    Bryan Singer did not tarnish most of his work on the x-men films

    Woddy Allen still has fans and supporters and most of his movies are still been called a classic

    Mel Gibson still has a career

    And this men have all been accused of actually doing things.

    JK Rowling is not in the same place as these people, far far from it. not even close. So Nah, I doubt she will ever be tarnished or ''cancelled'' or will ever fall from grace.

    That's just wrong, from a creative perspective - did Star Wars get any better for George Lucas stepping away. If you want rehash after rehash and the usual corporate creative then going the way they have seems to be fulfilling your wish.

    This series is great, far better than the overrated Harry Potter films.

    And contrary to a lot of people, I liked the 2nd movie more than the 1st. And I loved the 1st one.

    Yeah, I mean we're not going to see Harry Potter end or anything (too much money wrapped up in it for the big businesses to let it go), but you have to wonder if Rowling's continued efforts to torch her legacy and the hindsight realization that the IP was more problematic than we realized will eventually have some kind of practical effect. Course, seeing how the second Fantastic Beasts movie was not well-received, the third one may pay more for its sins than Rowlings'.

    The second movie was really good, much better than the first one which was all setup.

    Mads will be great in this one.

    Honestly, I completely forgot Fantastic Beasts was a thing. It's been radio silence since Crimes of Grindelwald thudded it's way in and out of theaters.

    Watching this trailer though...

    Every time I look at one of these new trailers I can't help but trying to take a look at crowd scenes and what needed to be changed because of COVID. Seems like a lot of scenes with only two or three characters. The scenes with the kids you can tell they had to space things out. COVID sucks. Why couldn't they just digitally put people in to build the world?
