I'm sure I'll like it fine enough, but that's an...interesting casting for Dumbledore, I have to say.

At least the New York characters from the first movie is in this, which I like a lot, I thought they were charming and fun.

I wonder, especially with the "Wizarding World" branding they're going with, why they bothered to hold on to "Fantastic Beasts" in the title

Rather than making "Fantastic Beasts" a series title, the second one should have been called Fantastic Beasts and How to Catch Them, since it seems to be about Newt and Dumbledore chasing Grindelwald.

Probably because this is a direct sequel to Fantastic Beasts, and the "Wizarding World" stuff is a catchall for the franchise rather than a specific name for any sub-series of it.

Not a great trailer (except for the Enya drop), but A24 has that special sauce. Also, can confirm that is 100% how the current generation of 'yoots' tend to look, speak, and act.

It was a big Sundance hit so reviews are already out there. Got some really nice write-ups, but I've also learned not to get too excited about coming-of-age dramas that get really nice write-ups at Sundance

Sorry about your wrong and bad opinion

On topic: I believe Bo directed Chris Rock's latest special on Netflix, not that a stand-up special is necessarily any indication of his ability to direct a film. He's moved into the writing/directing space, so I imagine we'll see more out of him in the coming years.

i have heard some stories about Bo Burnham as a person (which i chalk up to him being 19-20 at the time) that paint him as a douche, but his comedy is pretty good and I think he's a pretty smart guy. Zach Stone is Gonna Be Famous was a great vehicle for him, and he's been trying to get a movie made for a while. At one point he was writing a musical.

You shut your face the Black Order rules and will be taken out on the next movie. Or worse, in-between movies. But this one? This one is their time to shine.

I forgot that this was a stealth two-parter. I concede that they will be taken out in the next movie, except maybe like, one at the end of this one. Also Supergiant is missing for some reason even though has a more interesting power set than Black Dwarf. Or Thanos.

I'll probably watch it on opening night, but I must say I'm not super excited about them cramming every single character in there. That had been my main problem with the first two Avengers find, but at least this one has a non-generic villain.

Infinity War will be the first parallel narrative blockbuster, allowing moviegoers to decide on the fly which part of the story they want to follow now, creating a whole new level of brand engagement.

140 minutes for this one, then probably the same for the sequel where they (probably) try to win having lost round 1 and/or half the planet is dead and they need to do timeywimey stuff to undo it.
