Do you know what this means? ... It means we've had stories with Gryffindors as the main characters (Harry Potter and the Adjective Nouns), Slytherins as the main characters (The Cursed Child), and a Hufflepuff as the main character (Fantastic Beasts). Ravenclaws are left out.

Luke Halling I'm well aware, and I am superglad I am a hufflepuff, nevertheless I've met a lot of people who judged me wrongly for it, and insulted the hufflepuffs
Bizarre Bits I feel like it would be similar to breeding dogs, trying to breed them to be the prettiest or something like that. But top hats are better
Draco Malfoy: That's why it doesn't seem right that Newt still has a working wand and is allowed to use magic! When Hagrid was expelled, his wand was broken and he was never (officially) allowed to use magic ever again! Let alone get another wand or something. So WHY didn't they break Newt's wand? Doesn't make any sense to me and is the biggest plot hole of the whole thing.
i think dumbledore was allowing newt to use magic since he sent newt to new york for something i forgot super carlin brothers talked about that in another video (or this one, i watched it a while ago)
@@Keyboardje maybe he was like one of the first cases like this, and till hagrid's time, the ministry got more strict about these things and broke his wand, since dumbledore's influence was also lessened.
There is a scene in PoA where Harry, while wearing his invisibility cloak, steals a red lollipop from Neville. Did anyone else notice a red lollipop getting stolen from a little boy in Fantastic Beasts too? Maybe it was just a coincidence, but it also seemed like an easter egg for the fans paying really close attention.
Newt didn't actually graduate, though. He was expelled for endangering another student's life by way of the beasts he collected - if my memory serves me right. However: Dumbledore went on record, later, speaking as if he *had* graduated. Because Dumbledore did attempt to defend Newt and keep him from being expelled - though it was in vain.
Twiggy Morris I saw it yesterday and that is correct, he was expelled because they thought his beasts were an endangerment to the other students and teachers. Every magical person wants all beasts to be killed and so Newt hides them. I'm not going to spoil the rest
It's Me Lucy Actually, not all magic folk wanted beasts dead back then. From the vague information about the time period- there were people like Dumbledore who agreed with him. It's one of the reasons he was involved in house elf relocation. They were just far fewer than The Marauders time period or Harry's. They do eventually come around though. Also saw the movie jskfjahfkjshdjfkdhfufj
Well, page 394 isn't there because you aren't looking at the right book. The Defence Against the Dark Arts book for third years attending Hogwarts at the time Harry is a third year is The Essential Defence Against the Dark Arts by Arsenius Jigger. The only time students use Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by Newt Scamander is First year.
"If you didn't read the book, would you actually know what's going on?" The answer is no. My husband had to pause the movie every 5 minutes to ask me to clarify. It would have taken less time to simply read the series out loud to him. Oh well, at least he gets some of my Harry Potter references now.
The Last Grownup in the Woods that was basically how my wife and I watched the movies. I didn't really have a grasp on what was happening until probably the fourth movie
I never read the books but, I knew the basics of it. I have seen all the movies and have never really felt lost. I will probably never read the books. ~Rockfeather
I suggest you read the books. They are excellent in every way, and so much better than the universe. The characters are better developed and some don't feel forced or like plot devices. There are no plot holes that I could think of. There's so much more to the events and the story. Every two-second scene from the movies is more stressed in the books, adding more character to the characters that we love or hate. There's also Peeves.
Maybe one day I will! Right now I am busy with school books! Have you read Percy Jackson and the Olympians? I have read the whole series and the Heroes of Olympus series. I have not yet the Kane chronicles and I couldn't get into the Magnus Chase series. I am reading the Apollo trials for fun, his heart is really not in this series, now I think he knows whatever he writes is going to be a best seller and is just doing it for the money! 😟🐢🔰~Rockfeather
My Ilvermorny house is Thunderbird too! And my Hogwarts house is Hufflepuff. So I'm prettty excited to see a Hufflepuff-led movie because I usually feel like it's the least represented house anywhere.
I saw the movie yesterday. I don't spoil. Newt mentions that the anatomy of wizards is different from the anatomy of muggles. Do you have any idea what this difference is?
Wayne Zhen Anatomy isn't the same thing as genetics. Anatomy is purely about the physical structures of a body. The two are related, but there can be genetic differences that never show up anatomically; for instance an allergy or a predisposition to cancer or an immunity to Black Plague. So if wizards are different anatomically from muggles, that suggests a physical difference of some kind.
I think that wizards, muggle borns, and squibs (muggles that are wizard born) all have a magic gene. Squibs sometimes live with muggles instead of the wizarding world. They will marry muggles and have muggle children, but these children still carry the magic gene. Once the gene finally gets activated and is magically usable, muggle-borns are born. And yes, Hermione had wizards on her mom or dads side of their family
he did not graduate Hogwarts he was kicked out for endangering human life by one of his beasts even though this is barely noted once you see the movie its hard to for get which and i understand why you did not get it right because they tried really hard to keep this movie under raps it kind of made me laugh a little how much he got wrong even though before seeing the film i probable thought the same
How can the 100 wizard fight be wrong? In the film the book is not published, so that could still happen, as the 100 man fight is in the 54. version of the book, published when harry lives. So he could have included it post 1927, maybe 1940, where the films still will take place. (The fantastic beast films are 5, and they cover the time from 1926-1945)
It is entirely possible to watch the movies without ever reading the books, and understand what's happening, my best friend is a prime example. I never had to explain anything to her when we watched them starting from Sorcerers Stone. The movies do a pretty good job of explaining things that are introduced to the viewer about the wizarding world, in my opinion. :)
Wow... I was staying out of any spoilers for FBAWTFT and almost made it to the premier without even knowing there's gonna be Johnny Depp playing Grindelwald... And now when I'm almost on my way to the cinema I decide to watch this video, just out of curiousity about something that I missed on pottermore or that I forgot from the books :D Well anyway, it's just me to blame.
he didn't really graduate from hogwarts more of kicked out. also this is just a theory but I think Newt was a hufflepuff due to the actor being a hufflepuff but hey that's just a theory
I am a Pukwudgie, and I feel very alone lol. I also don't understand why Pukwudgies were chosen alongside things like Thunderbirds, Horned serpents, and Wampus' (which if I understand correctly are fire panthers). I feel like a glorified House elf.
So and I and I feel that way too. Guess we'll have to wait and see. They are making at least 4 more Beasts movies so maybe one will be in there and explain everything.
One question since I've seen Fantastic Beasts has been SERIOUSLY bugging me... SPOILER ALERT! In the movie we see Newt using a wand. Presumably, his own. And yet, we know from the movie that he was expelled from Hogwarts. Wouldn't they have broken his wand? Or was that strictly for Hagrid? (Possible racism against half giants?) More importantly, if he was expelled, just how did he end up essentially working for the Ministry of Magic? Was it kind of a military draft? (The movie also reveals that Newt spent "the war" ie WWI fighting Ukrainian Iron Belly Dragons) Would love to hear your theories.
I was going to post to ask +SuperCarlinBrothers to do a review of the movie, but I saw this post and I'm curious about that as well. I didn't really catch it as I was watching the movie. SPOILERS!! Speaking of giants, there was a giant (or at least a half-giant maybe?) in the speak easy. I had thought giants were pretty universally discriminated against, so are American wizards a little more accepting? Also, I don't recall seeing anybody wearing any robes even within the wizarding workplace. Are robes more of a European thing (or maybe more specifically an English thing since when Durmstrang and Bouxbatons visited for the tri-wizard tournament the other schools wore uniforms but not robes)?
jamesalthaus1229 1:38 - I'm also confused about Ben's claim that he actually graduated considering that we know he was expelled; any idea where he sourced this claim from?
jamesalthaus1229 I don't think he was expelled. He was supposed almost expelled I guess. Dumbledore fought for him to not be expelled? At least that was what I thought. And he couldn't have worked for the ministry if he didn't complete the NEWT.
What I believe is that Hagrid was accused of an almost hate crime, the petrification of mudbloods leading up to the death of Myrtle. The wizarding community never caught the person/beast that actually did nor did they have an inkling of it being a basilisks in the first place. The only reason Hagrid didn't go to Azkaban was because of Dumbledore vouching for him. Hagrid became a scapegoat and many people were upset over these happenings so it led up to the expulsion of Hagrid and I'm pretty sure that the Ministry had to blame someone and bring peace back to the people by taking away Hagrid's wand. In the other hand Newt my have just been unruly or what many people say that he let a giant squid into the lake which isn't really causing a murder (I dont believe) but might have been against school rules which led to his expulsion. Do correct me if I am wrong
maybe it wasn't in the norm during Newt's time....and came into being during Hagrid's time? but I doubt that...the ministry doesn't change rules all that often...except in the last couple of books where all laws changed dramatically.
the film was so epic. I felt like a kid again. lol. I didn't like the casting for grindelwald. the world looked so magical and great. jk rowling did it again. hope we see the Dumbledores in the future. as we all know he will confront grindewald in a battle that will kill ariana Dumbledore. oh my ilvermorny house is also Thunderbirds.
Pumpkin Grantaire yes I know. During this time era was the time ariana die in a duel between the two Dumbledore brothers and grindewald. I hope jk rowling goes depth into that story. She wasn't loyal to the books in the deathly hallows part 2 film.
luke morrison oh yea right sorry i misread your comment. i thought you said ariana dies at the end,. you're totally right! it would be so cool if rowling explored that part of the story more, and that way also tied in the new movies with the books a bit more! why didnt you like the casting for grindelwald though? so many people are hating on it, i don really see what the problem is.
Pumpkin Grantaire bc that's doesn't describe him in the book. He's a Scottish native I think. Johnny deep is not the grindewald I picture. Alexander skagard is a better choice for the role.
Dumbledore said that she never used her magic after the muggle boys did god knows what to her, but that she was unstable and her magic would Burst out of her when she was upset! I feel like years of confusion over Ariana have finally been settled!
"First is the Erumpent, basically a rhino but with a super explosive horn - although, if you ask me, it looks a lot more like a Crumple-Horned Snorkack.' I appreciate this reference.
Compared to the HP movies I'd say Fantastic Beasts is better buuut compared to the HP books... I enjoyed the original series of books more (it's kind of hard to say which is better since they're in two relatively different mediums and FBaWtFT isn't based off of any books story-wise... but I liked the original Harry Potter books more)
I died when you made the connection between Newt being a Hufflepuff and Fantastic Beasts and Where to "FIND" Them. Funniest thing I've heard all year...
As to your question about watching the HP movies without reading the book, yes you are absolutely right you have no idea what was going on. When I read the books after the movies I was literally surprised that “moody” was Barty crouch. Also I totally didn’t get all the backstory stuff from order of the Phoenix onwards, and I didn’t know who Tonks or really peter peregriw were.
Okay I just seen the preview of an epic comeback of cars, and I NEEEEEED you to talk about a theory of what will happen! I see a new-B who is zooming in and out of cars and McQeen looks beat up as well before he crashes. Makes me wonder! I would love it if you made a video about it. Please!
I have a question for you guys!! So if Harry got stabbed with the basilisk fang in book two, then why didn't that destroy the horcrux part of him? Thanks guys!
No, e wouldn't've had to die to destroy the horcrux. For example in SCB's video on Albus Dumbledore's possible horcrux being Fawkes. Dumbledore summoned Fawkes to swallow a killing curse from Voldemort in book five. The curse didn't kill Fawkes, just the horcrux in him.
First, you're using a theory as a defense of your own question... You can't do that, it's still just a theory, after all. Second, Fawkes did die. The trick is that he is immortal and pretty much invincible, being a phoenix. He died and was reborn, just like Harry. But anyway, Fawkes never was a Horcrux, and Harry didn't get destroyed when he got biten. The poison didn't have time to spread in the body, he got cured almost right awy, that's why the Horcrux didn't get destroyed.
I believe the one you are talking about is the screenplay edition where they, instead of talking about all the beasts talks about what happened in the movie.
Ikr. Dogs are loyal, they're technically Hufflepuff animals. While Slytherins are more independent, individualistic, cunning, so... cats. By loving dogs Ben is just indirectly admitting how much he loves Hufflepuff ;) He's a Slytherin, but he needs hufflepuffness in his life !
GUYS I HAVE AN AWESOME THEORY. Mild spoilers below, so don't read the next bit if you haven't seen Beasts yet. But I've purposefully kept it relatively 'obscure', he he he. . . . . . . . . Ariana Dumbledore was an Obscurus. This is how (ahem) *HE* knew about the power of the Obscurus, and was looking for one. Discuss.
joe4490 good theory. would that be an explanation why Dumbledore was so 'fond' of Newt? because he managed to separate one from that girl in Sudan with no harm? so it was kind of personal for Dumbledore:)
Maybe? But I'd guess Dumbledore's fondness of Newt (from Newt's school days) would have started before the separation in Sudan (which I think he said happened not long before the start of the story, but I might have mis-remembered).
I'm a Gryffindor and Thunderbird! Oh, and Newt got expelled because he 'endangered' the students lives. Also, as there are like 5 movies in the FBAWTFT collection, everyone suspects that we will see or get a hint about Tom Riddle, who was born when the first movie took place.
Jessica Alice Actually, the most popular would be Slytherin. People want to be Slytherin because they want to be... different... but are completely oblivious to the fact that almost everyone else wants to be Slytherin for the same reason. Instead of being original, they take the "I'm original" cliché route. It's a confusing system.
Yes, you would understand what is going on! I myself actually saw all the movies at least a few years before I went ahead and read the whole series. :)
I didn't read the Harry Potter books until recently. I saw the movies first. They were very entertaining, but Half Blood Prince and Deathly Hallows were a little harder to enjoy. I felt like the books would have clarified some things. It was good to watch Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and not worry about what I may have missed from the book.
The movie was fantastic. Out of the six of us that took the Pottermore tests, I'm Ravenclaw/Thunderbird, my brothers are both Gryffindor/Pukwudgie, my mom is a Gryffindor/Wampus, and my cousins are Gryffindor/Thunderbird and Hufflepuff/Thunderbird. So sad I had to retake my test. I miss you Slytherin house. :(
I like how you said the Erumpet looked like the Crumpled Horned Snorkack, because in the Deathly Hallows Luna and her father are convinced that an Erumpet horn is a Crumpled Horned Snorkack.
Do you know what this means?
...
It means we've had stories with Gryffindors as the main characters (Harry Potter and the Adjective Nouns), Slytherins as the main characters (The Cursed Child), and a Hufflepuff as the main character (Fantastic Beasts).
Ravenclaws are left out.
Thursday Violist aw man. I hope there is another with ravenclaw

You guys have Luna. I think you're good.
Letitia C. But Malfoy has a big part in the books
Thursday Violist you never know what the future holds...
I watched this after seeing the movie and there are so many wrong assumptions in this video 😂
Tyler Pasop I think it is really funny to see it after seeing the movie😂
me too
There always are
me too
yep absolutely
I'm so excited to have a strong leading Hufflepuff in the fandom!!!
Abigail Philpott me too :D
Eileen Mennink same we finally have a new hufflepuff that is important
Zig Zag Dollies we're too underappreciated
Abigail Philpott, JK herself said she liked Hufflepuff house the best.
Luke Halling I'm well aware, and I am superglad I am a hufflepuff, nevertheless I've met a lot of people who judged me wrongly for it, and insulted the hufflepuffs
WHAT is wrong with Hufflpuff's ??? Badger and proud!!
Hufflepuff pride is strong here *hi-5*
Hufflepuff is awesome!!! Hufflepuff for life!!!
Yes! I have found the hufflepuffs
Finally a movie all about a fellow Badger :D
Yes! Proud Hufflepuffs! We are awesome. Good to know you're out there with me. ^_^
I imagine fancy hippogriffs as wearing top hats
With a golden monocle
Yes omg that is amazing xD
with a little bow tie
Bizarre Bits I feel like it would be similar to breeding dogs, trying to breed them to be the prettiest or something like that. But top hats are better
That's absolutely wonderful 😆😊😄
Wait, JOHNNY DEPP is playing Grindelwald?!?! Siriusly?!?!
No. Regulusly. 😝
But yes. You will be shocked by his appearance
Angela Davidson Awwwww the puns!!
Crazy_Panda_87 Lol 😂
Puppies Eat Bacon At Hogwarts You're terrible. Jk. Also, interesting username XD
He says Newt graduated and was a Hufflepuff. WRONG! Newt was expelled for endangering another's life.
Draco Malfoy thanks Draco. How are you taking Astoria’s death
actually newt was expelled from hogwarts when he took responsibility for something leda lestrange did
i think
Draco Malfoy: That's why it doesn't seem right that Newt still has a working wand and is allowed to use magic!
When Hagrid was expelled, his wand was broken and he was never (officially) allowed to use magic ever again! Let alone get another wand or something.

@@Keyboardje maybe he was like one of the first cases like this, and till hagrid's time, the ministry got more strict about these things and broke his wand, since dumbledore's influence was also lessened.
I find it funny how wrong the predictions are.
Emily Potter ???
Emily Potter OMG one of my friends at school is called Emily Potter!!
+omg its kita (no one cares)
Emily Potter yeah he said he graduated he was expelled
Which honestly makes more sense when his first job was Elf Relocation.....
There is a scene in PoA where Harry, while wearing his invisibility cloak, steals a red lollipop from Neville. Did anyone else notice a red lollipop getting stolen from a little boy in Fantastic Beasts too? Maybe it was just a coincidence, but it also seemed like an easter egg for the fans paying really close attention.
Oak Star I did
Oak Star I noticed that too. I was pretty certain that it was an easter egg
Those evil obscuribibibghfhdrnsy i never remember their name stealing lollipops and making kids (sorta) blind by pulling down their hats.
Dougal!!
Newt didn't actually graduate, though. He was expelled for endangering another student's life by way of the beasts he collected - if my memory serves me right. However: Dumbledore went on record, later, speaking as if he *had* graduated. Because Dumbledore did attempt to defend Newt and keep him from being expelled - though it was in vain.
Sorry, it's just one of my favorite things about early Hogwarts so I wanted to correct that. >__
Twiggy Morris was coming to the towel section to do that myself. Thank you. 😊

Also saw the movie jskfjahfkjshdjfkdhfufj
I was just about to comment this! :D
The Fantastic Beast textbook is OBVIOUSLY not the full size!!!
1. WHERE IS PAGE 394?
2. Of COURSE you can't know everything about the wizarding world
Well, page 394 isn't there because you aren't looking at the right book. The Defence Against the Dark Arts book for third years attending Hogwarts at the time Harry is a third year is The Essential Defence Against the Dark Arts by Arsenius Jigger. The only time students use Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by Newt Scamander is First year.
BookTardis394 lol
lol 😂 💗
Bennett really I don’t care
Hey Barnnettt I agree with you!
"Newt seems way too responsible to accidentally let is animals loose" that's what I thought too Ben.
"If you didn't read the book, would you actually know what's going on?" The answer is no. My husband had to pause the movie every 5 minutes to ask me to clarify. It would have taken less time to simply read the series out loud to him. Oh well, at least he gets some of my Harry Potter references now.
The Last Grownup in the Woods that was basically how my wife and I watched the movies. I didn't really have a grasp on what was happening until probably the fourth movie

i am a Pukwudgie and a hufflepuff. And i am so happy that there is going to be a movie with the main charter a hufflepuff
I'm a Pukwudgie Ravenclaw!
Cool. GO PUKWUDGIES!!!
I AM THE SAME YAH :)
Adrian H.S HUFFLEPUFFS RULE!!!!
I am Pukwudgie Hufflepuff proud and true
My Ilvermorny house is Thunderbird too! And my Hogwarts house is Hufflepuff. So I'm prettty excited to see a Hufflepuff-led movie because I usually feel like it's the least represented house anywhere.
Same bro!!
Same! GO HUFFLEPUFF!!!!
Uta HUFFLEPUFF PRIDE! 💛💛💛💛
Slytherin and Wampus lol
Hufflepuffs unite!!
I'm in Horned Serpent. As well as Slytherin. Fitting.
actually, i think wampus is ilvermorny slytherin as horned serpent is ravenclaw
i'm a slitherin pukwudie so slitherpuff
Gryffindor and Thunderbird. Sorry. #Merica.
you were soooooo wrong about the plot including a 100 wizard fight finale...good call champ!
SO WRONG. It didn't even go loose. Besides the finale was Grindelwald and Credence.
And Madame President's team
that wizard fight would be awesome
But in the end the 100 wizards did attack credence
ikr
I saw the movie yesterday. I don't spoil.
Newt mentions that the anatomy of wizards is different from the anatomy of muggles. Do you have any idea what this difference is?
cimmik you go to wizard school if you have this magical gene squibs are people who have wizard parents but no magical gene
Wayne Zhen Anatomy isn't the same thing as genetics. Anatomy is purely about the physical structures of a body. The two are related, but there can be genetic differences that never show up anatomically; for instance an allergy or a predisposition to cancer or an immunity to Black Plague.

And yes, Hermione had wizards on her mom or dads side of their family
Midichlorians :P
cimmik It's not spoiling. You can say what you want.
Or, it's 4 feet are all thumbs
Bizarre Bits The possibilities are endless!
Sketch It D.I.Y
If you haven't watched the vieo, don't complain that comments don't make sense
You should just watch the video before asking what comments mean
There's this thing called waiting
There's nothing wrong with that, just that you won't understand half the comments if you don't watch the video
he did not graduate Hogwarts he was kicked out for endangering human life by one of his beasts even though this is barely noted once you see the movie its hard to for get which and i understand why you did not get it right because they tried really hard to keep this movie under raps it kind of made me laugh a little how much he got wrong even though before seeing the film i probable thought the same
GamerBASH yeah
Meadow Gould why did they have hagrids wand snapped but newts is still working
The Jj Project because he made his own
actually newt was expelled from hogwarts when he took responsibility for something leda lestrange did
i think
Too late already saw the movie yesterday. All Hufflepuffs in the house say HEY!!! I'm a Wampus in the Ilvermorny house btw.
Mark Anthony Hey!
Mark Anthony hey!
Mark Anthony Hey! 😆
Mark Anthony heeey :D
hey. go suck it, wampus, i'm a thunderbird
How do you feel about being wrong about practically everything in this video?
I was going to comment on that too lol
Rachel Wright me too. But it was a awesome movie
How can the 100 wizard fight be wrong?
In the film the book is not published, so that could still happen, as the 100 man fight is in the 54. version of the book, published when harry lives.
So he could have included it post 1927, maybe 1940, where the films still will take place.
(The fantastic beast films are 5, and they cover the time from 1926-1945)
You realize i said "practically" for a reason, right? And, it was implied that it all happened in this movie. : )
I know its hysterical
Timely. Very timely. I'm seeing it on Saturday. Anyone else?
Lyra I have to see it then cause I'm not allowed to see it on Friday :(.
Tomorrow/Friday
Lyra I'm seeing on Saturday too.. Wow
Seeing it tonight!
I watched a pre showing. go even if you are sceptical. it is good
It is entirely possible to watch the movies without ever reading the books, and understand what's happening, my best friend is a prime example.

Any Ravenclaw/Horned Serpents here?
Nekotaku I'm bolth ravenclaw and horned serpent☺
Nekotaku yes
Literally exactly the same
we dont get a cool combo name...
yep to both
14 dislikes? That's probably Voldy and his gang 😉
Ehem Crumple horned snorlack!
Kiki A HAHHAHAHAHAH
*Snorkack.
Kiki A omg hahaha
***** yeah 😌
Wow... I was staying out of any spoilers for FBAWTFT and almost made it to the premier without even knowing there's gonna be Johnny Depp playing Grindelwald... And now when I'm almost on my way to the cinema I decide to watch this video, just out of curiousity about something that I missed on pottermore or that I forgot from the books :D
Well anyway, it's just me to blame.
he didn't really graduate from hogwarts more of kicked out. also this is just a theory but I think Newt was a hufflepuff due to the actor being a hufflepuff but hey that's just a theory
babo_gamja11 not a theory he really did get kicked out
A *movie* theory!
He got kicked out but people are speculating that he got to finish his last year at hogwarts later in life
The fantastic beasts book says that he graduated from hogwarts
JK Rowling admitted he was a hufflepuff.
I am a Pukwudgie, and I feel very alone lol. I also don't understand why Pukwudgies were chosen alongside things like Thunderbirds, Horned serpents, and Wampus' (which if I understand correctly are fire panthers). I feel like a glorified House elf.
So and I and I feel that way too.
Guess we'll have to wait and see. They are making at least 4 more Beasts movies so maybe one will be in there and explain everything.
Connor Hughes there is a story about it on pottermore, it's about the creation of illvermorny
Be proud of Pukwudgie. We're very important :3
One question since I've seen Fantastic Beasts has been SERIOUSLY bugging me...
SPOILER ALERT!
In the movie we see Newt using a wand. Presumably, his own. And yet, we know from the movie that he was expelled from Hogwarts. Wouldn't they have broken his wand? Or was that strictly for Hagrid? (Possible racism against half giants?) More importantly, if he was expelled, just how did he end up essentially working for the Ministry of Magic? Was it kind of a military draft? (The movie also reveals that Newt spent "the war" ie WWI fighting Ukrainian Iron Belly Dragons) Would love to hear your theories.
I was going to post to ask +SuperCarlinBrothers to do a review of the movie, but I saw this post and I'm curious about that as well. I didn't really catch it as I was watching the movie.
SPOILERS!!
Speaking of giants, there was a giant (or at least a half-giant maybe?) in the speak easy. I had thought giants were pretty universally discriminated against, so are American wizards a little more accepting? Also, I don't recall seeing anybody wearing any robes even within the wizarding workplace. Are robes more of a European thing (or maybe more specifically an English thing since when Durmstrang and Bouxbatons visited for the tri-wizard tournament the other schools wore uniforms but not robes)?
jamesalthaus1229 1:38 - I'm also confused about Ben's claim that he actually graduated considering that we know he was expelled; any idea where he sourced this claim from?
jamesalthaus1229 I don't think he was expelled. He was supposed almost expelled I guess. Dumbledore fought for him to not be expelled? At least that was what I thought. And he couldn't have worked for the ministry if he didn't complete the NEWT.
What I believe is that Hagrid was accused of an almost hate crime, the petrification of mudbloods leading up to the death of Myrtle. The wizarding community never caught the person/beast that actually did nor did they have an inkling of it being a basilisks in the first place. The only reason Hagrid didn't go to Azkaban was because of Dumbledore vouching for him. Hagrid became a scapegoat and many people were upset over these happenings so it led up to the expulsion of Hagrid and I'm pretty sure that the Ministry had to blame someone and bring peace back to the people by taking away Hagrid's wand. In the other hand Newt my have just been unruly or what many people say that he let a giant squid into the lake which isn't really causing a murder (I dont believe) but might have been against school rules which led to his expulsion. Do correct me if I am wrong
maybe it wasn't in the norm during Newt's time....and came into being during Hagrid's time? but I doubt that...the ministry doesn't change rules all that often...except in the last couple of books where all laws changed dramatically.
Btw didn't it say in the trailer 'expeld from Hogwarts '
Mr Cakeman 'kicked out of Hogwarts for endangering a human life with a beast.'
Mr Cakeman Just like Hagrid...
Amber Shoffren Hagrid and Newt should talk to each other
Exactly. It said *expelled* from Hogwarts.
I want a short manuscript of the two of them topping each others stories over tea. Talking about Norbert and nifflers. I would die!
I LOVED the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them book! It was super fun to learn about all the magical creatures.
the film was so epic. I felt like a kid again. lol. I didn't like the casting for grindelwald. the world looked so magical and great. jk rowling did it again. hope we see the Dumbledores in the future. as we all know he will confront grindewald in a battle that will kill ariana Dumbledore. oh my ilvermorny house is also Thunderbirds.
ariana died years before the final battle
Pumpkin Grantaire yes I know. During this time era was the time ariana die in a duel between the two Dumbledore brothers and grindewald. I hope jk rowling goes depth into that story. She wasn't loyal to the books in the deathly hallows part 2 film.
luke morrison oh yea right sorry i misread your comment. i thought you said ariana dies at the end,.
you're totally right! it would be so cool if rowling explored that part of the story more, and that way also tied in the new movies with the books a bit more!
why didnt you like the casting for grindelwald though? so many people are hating on it, i don really see what the problem is.
Pumpkin Grantaire bc that's doesn't describe him in the book. He's a Scottish native I think. Johnny deep is not the grindewald I picture. Alexander skagard is a better choice for the role.
luke morrison hmm yea ok i agree. but i guess now we just have to live with it
At the point of me clicking on the video, the majority of comments are people claiming they're first.
Ok having just watched this I need some supercarlin opinion on whether Ariana dumbledore was an obscurious?!
Emily Jackson I was thinking the same thing!
Emily Jackson also she had outbursts so she must be... Right?
Dumbledore said that she never used her magic after the muggle boys did god knows what to her, but that she was unstable and her magic would
Burst out of her when she was upset! I feel like years of confusion over Ariana have finally been settled!
What is up my fellow no-ma...I MEAN HUMANS
so doing this
***** omfg i got hogwarts

Remember that the best place to find fantastic beasts is... BEHIND THE DOOR
if text books are that big in the wizard world that just makes me want to be a part of that world even more
wait.
SO NEVILLE DOESN'T MARRY LUNA?!??!?!?!?!?!?!
Lily Locke no... sadly not 😔
Lily Locke :( ikr I was sooooooooo sad
He's probably happy with his wife, Hannah Abbott , though
BSide who is Hannah abbot though???
Nope
"First is the Erumpent, basically a rhino but with a super explosive horn - although, if you ask me, it looks a lot more like a Crumple-Horned Snorkack.'
I appreciate this reference.
I saw it
It's awesome!
And it was completely different from what you said
But still really good
I have also saw it😜
I saw it as well but I still think Harry Potter is better
Violetta Lover I prefer Fantastic Beasts, bc it was not adapted from a book
Compared to the HP movies I'd say Fantastic Beasts is better buuut compared to the HP books... I enjoyed the original series of books more (it's kind of hard to say which is better since they're in two relatively different mediums and FBaWtFT isn't based off of any books story-wise... but I liked the original Harry Potter books more)
no, there's at least 394 pages.
in a wizarding textbook.
ALWAYS!
Ravenpuff Phandacorn Turn to page three hundred...and ninety...four
Your profile pic and username combined are the most wonderful things I have seen all day.

I died when you made the connection between Newt being a Hufflepuff and Fantastic Beasts and Where to "FIND" Them. Funniest thing I've heard all year...
Yo, any other horned serpents out there? I'm also GRYFFINDOR

HishraPersephone I'm a hufflepuff but a horned serpent
yay another Hufflepuff
+CJ Dangerfield Same
my step dad's daughter said that newt would be hufflepuff because people in that house have a certain personality
Chrstian & Kai Hawley also @ the end of the movie he's wearing a hufflepuff scarf
Chrstian & Kai Hawley you could just say step sister
As to your question about watching the HP movies without reading the book, yes you are absolutely right you have no idea what was going on. When I read the books after the movies I was literally surprised that “moody” was Barty crouch. Also I totally didn’t get all the backstory stuff from order of the Phoenix onwards, and I didn’t know who Tonks or really peter peregriw were.
Where my Thunderbird housemates at!? :D
Alexander Timothy HERE!
Sup!
Alexander Timothy HERE!!!!!!
Alexander Timothy i am one and hufflupuff ravenclaw and a griffindor I took it several times as I aged

Mariana Mauricio DON'T SPOIL ANYTHING
3:45 great shot of Jacob, props to you
6:10 pfffffffffffffff yeah right
😂😂😂
I knew Johnny Depp was in the movies, but I didn't know he was playing Grindelwald...
I'm in Thunderbird too!!!
So happy for Luna! She was always my favourite
He didnt graduate he got kicked out!!!
i watched it two days ago and it was amazing
WellWhatANiceLittleUsernameWeGotHere I'm seeing it tomorrow XD
He was expelled from Hogwarts
Nope. In the movie Newt Scamander TELLS his peeps (xD) that he was expelled for "Endangering other students". You're welcome.
Clxud no spoilers!
Brooke Anderson it was in the trailer.
everything written before the new movie had him graduating
Fun guesses to watch after seeing. I would have assumed it was going to be more overtly about Grindelwald too if I had known he was in it.
I have a cat and and a dog and I'm a Hufflepuff!
But great video!
And Pukwudgies FTW. But, the other Ilvermorny houses are AWESOME!
FanFusion omg same
am I the only one who thinks it sounds like he is saying towel section istead of comment section?
also #slytherinforlife
it's what they call the comment section
why do they do that?
John River
anonymous DJ he is, and it makes sense if you watch their '48 (I think) uses for a towel'
KiraTheKat 42 ;-)
I just saw the movie before this so he is on point for some things and way off for a lot of things lol
I'm a thunderbird too
Okay I just seen the preview of an epic comeback of cars, and I NEEEEEED you to talk about a theory of what will happen! I see a new-B who is zooming in and out of cars and McQeen looks beat up as well before he crashes. Makes me wonder! I would love it if you made a video about it. Please!
I have a question for you guys!! So if Harry got stabbed with the basilisk fang in book two, then why didn't that destroy the horcrux part of him? Thanks guys!
No, e wouldn't've had to die to destroy the horcrux. For example in SCB's video on Albus Dumbledore's possible horcrux being Fawkes. Dumbledore summoned Fawkes to swallow a killing curse from Voldemort in book five. The curse didn't kill Fawkes, just the horcrux in him.
Interesting theory. Liking your comment in the hope that Carlin or Ben sees it
JK. Rowling said on Twitter that the Horcrux (Harry) must be completely destroyed.
Because Harry didn't die from it.
First, you're using a theory as a defense of your own question... You can't do that, it's still just a theory, after all.
Second, Fawkes did die. The trick is that he is immortal and pretty much invincible, being a phoenix. He died and was reborn, just like Harry.
But anyway, Fawkes never was a Horcrux, and Harry didn't get destroyed when he got biten. The poison didn't have time to spread in the body, he got cured almost right awy, that's why the Horcrux didn't get destroyed.
PUCKWUDGIE POWER!
Angie Wagner Same!!!!
Me too!!
WOOP A DOOP 😛
Angie Wagner puckwudgie for the win
yass
Is that the American version of the book?😂 omg the English one is at least 10x as big😂
But half the animals he mentioned aren't in the English one😫 ugh so confuuuuuuused
Alex Bennett it's the Comic relief version, published in 2001
I believe the one you are talking about is the screenplay edition where they, instead of talking about all the beasts talks about what happened in the movie.
Hufflepuff and proud!! Also loved the 'find' line. I am a huge fan of A Very Potter Musical!
I allways thought Slytherin would be more cat people...
Ikr. Dogs are loyal, they're technically Hufflepuff animals. While Slytherins are more independent, individualistic, cunning, so... cats.
By loving dogs Ben is just indirectly admitting how much he loves Hufflepuff ;) He's a Slytherin, but he needs hufflepuffness in his life !
I'm watching this movie on Sunday!!!!!!
Zaynab Hafeez i have already seen it 😒
Þórdís Guðmundsdóttir lucky!!! Did you like it?
Friday!
Great movie. have fun and never tickle sleeping dragons
#TeamRavenclawBird
YAS
Aye, mate.
I was at Barnes and Nobles the other day, and yes, they were selling a book for this movie. The official screenplay.
he never graduated from hogwarts as he was expelled for endangering students
actually he was expelled when he took responsibility for something leda lestrange did
i think
Please do a video on the new beauty and the beast PLEASE
Amelia Dillon you have the best possible profile picture of all time😎😎😎😎😎
Margaret Oliphant, I seriously agree with you. That is an awesome profile pic.
And yes, Amelia Dillon, that is one of the best ideas I've ever heard. Thank you. You have made my day. 😄

Mild spoilers below, so don't read the next bit if you haven't seen Beasts yet. But I've purposefully kept it relatively 'obscure', he he he.

Ariana Dumbledore was an Obscurus. This is how (ahem) *HE* knew about the power of the Obscurus, and was looking for one.
Discuss.
joe4490 good theory. would that be an explanation why Dumbledore was so 'fond' of Newt? because he managed to separate one from that girl in Sudan with no harm? so it was kind of personal for Dumbledore:)
Maybe? But I'd guess Dumbledore's fondness of Newt (from Newt's school days) would have started before the separation in Sudan (which I think he said happened not long before the start of the story, but I might have mis-remembered).
Justyna Cybak the Sudan girl actually died Newt only tried to save her
YES!! #TEAMSLYTHERINDOG
oh and I'm also a Horned Serpent 🐍🐍🐍
I'm a Gryffindor and Thunderbird! Oh, and Newt got expelled because he 'endangered' the students lives. Also, as there are like 5 movies in the FBAWTFT collection, everyone suspects that we will see or get a hint about Tom Riddle, who was born when the first movie took place.
Second Salomers? Questionable abbreviation if you ask me.

Kirsten Kaminski I think we're on to something here..
I swear if you spoil anything😶
Ah good, no spoilers. Sweet relief. Great video! I can't wait to see the movie!!!
No spoilers apart form maybe be the most important character for this movie. Fking Depp.
+Laura Ward same I can't wait it's all I think about
+Tirtlok wait u didn't know this yet?
I really loved it
I'm a Gryffindor, and all my friends claim I chose to be because it was "popular" 😒
You don't really chose. You are who you are, and as long as Pottermore says you're Gryffindor, you probably are.
Proud Hufflepuff ikr!
Jessica Alice I'm a hufflepuff
Jessica Alice Actually, the most popular would be Slytherin. People want to be Slytherin because they want to be... different... but are completely oblivious to the fact that almost everyone else wants to be Slytherin for the same reason. Instead of being original, they take the "I'm original" cliché route. It's a confusing system.
SalaCommander26 I'm a slytherin and proud because of the quiz on pottermore not because it is different!!
5:19 just throwin this out there.... grindelwald could kick voldemorts butt

;-; i know but its the hard truth such a shame
right wtf they would've been great together, rowling is trippin
Nevvile married Hannah abbot
SHOULD'VE COULD'VE BUT DIDN'T
Way Cray yeah Nevile told Harry he loves Luna.
He didn't graduate from hogwarts, he was kicked out
Yes, you would understand what is going on! I myself actually saw all the movies at least a few years before I went ahead and read the whole series. :)

GREEN PANDA Same! Brothers from another mother. This is getting weird. Ok I'll stop now.
I didn't read the Harry Potter books until recently. I saw the movies first. They were very entertaining, but Half Blood Prince and Deathly Hallows were a little harder to enjoy. I felt like the books would have clarified some things. It was good to watch Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and not worry about what I may have missed from the book.
Any pukwudgies out here?
YeetSqaud 588 me!
Right here!
hey-o 😛
YeetSqaud 588 yup
heyyyyy
How wrong these were
How wrong you were when u said Hufflepuff was bad in the first book malfoy
Malfoy can you tell Scorpius I said hi? Thank you
tell harry i said hi
Xander mayfield me too
what......... I thought Luna and Neville were forever =(
Elis Regina Beltram yeah
Elis Regina Beltram :-(
The movie was fantastic. Out of the six of us that took the Pottermore tests, I'm Ravenclaw/Thunderbird, my brothers are both Gryffindor/Pukwudgie, my mom is a Gryffindor/Wampus, and my cousins are Gryffindor/Thunderbird and Hufflepuff/Thunderbird. So sad I had to retake my test. I miss you Slytherin house. :(
I'm a Hufflepuff and I'm a dog person
Same!
I took the quiz on pottermore and I got Slytherin and then I took another quiz on another website and got Hufflepuff so I'm not sure what I am
Pottermore's official so i'd go with that. I think Rowling helped work on it
you're a Slytherhuff
Slytherpuff
pottermore quiz is official so ur a slytherin
I like how you said the Erumpet looked like the Crumpled Horned Snorkack, because in the Deathly Hallows Luna and her father are convinced that an Erumpet horn is a Crumpled Horned Snorkack.
