Lyd’s review published on Letterboxd:
Ya bitch saw this mf in 3D
Here’s some notes I took because I had no idea what the hell was going on!!!!
- Somebody needs to tell me if Zoe Kravitz spoke in a British accent during the movie, cause wouldn’t that go against JK’s British purity wishes?
-Newt in French dubbing is apparently Norbert
-Why the fuck did they make grindelwald so ugly I hate you Jonny depp
-The ultimate defense strategy : curtains
- Why didn’t they just cast an old actor as Nicholas flemmel, that makeup was weird as hell
- They really milked the hell out of Newt’s bad posture, Yates might as well have told Redmayne, “just do Hawking again.”
- Same for Ezra miller lol bruh
- Multiple characters looked straight into the camera?
- The color scheme for this movie is sooo ugly
- I shit you not I predicted that it was a dead baby and i was right
- The Newt and Tena Theme (music) is actually really good and it’s a shame it had to be used like this
- grindelwald is a vape god
- Y’all were right about Newts brother being hot sorry I doubted you
- Are there zero muggle detectors for Jacob??? How is he getting past all of this without security?
- I love how every single character decision in this movie comes out of absolutely fucking nowhere
I actually really like the idea that Dumbledore and Grindelwald’s story is getting told but I have no clue why they’re making Newt and company such a big part of it. It’s a no from me dog, this was a mess and the ending was the most anticlimactic shit ever. The good news is that it felt a lot shorter than 140 minutes.
