FBAWTFT Movie Discussion #14: “I ask all of you, who does this protect? Us or them?”
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is a 2001 book written by British author J. K. Rowling about the magical creatures in the Harry Potter universe. It purports to be Harry Potter's copy of the textbook of the same name mentioned in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, the first novel of the Harry Potter series. CAST: Eddie Redmayne as Newt Scramander, An eccentric globe-hopping English “magizoologist” wizard who’s far more comfortable around beasts and creatures than he is around other people. Comes to New York on a quest with his case full of magical habitats containing rare and endangered species. "Eccentric magizoologist Newt Scamander (Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne) comes to New York (for a reason we won’t disclose) with his trusty weathered case. This case is one of those way-way-way-bigger-on-the-inside magical devices, and within are expansive habitats for a collection of rare and endangered magical creatures from Newt’s travels around globe. He discovers the American wizarding community is fearfully hiding from Muggles (who are called “No-Maj” in the States ... ) and the threat of public exposure is an even graver concern than in the UK (remember the Salem witch trials?). Fantastic Beasts is the story of what happens when this uniquely skilled English wizard travels to wiz-phobic America and a variety of his creatures, some quite dangerous … get out of their case."

At least the first movie was enjoyable. It was all new and it was nice to delve into the wizarding world again after the HP movies have ended.

Also from the first movie I really enjoyed Newt & Jacob a lot. Their friendship is everything.

HAHA! And when you're a muggle, you'd think it was probably an ostrich egg until you actually see what's inside.

Also ostrich eggs are usually that big so our first instinct would be to think it's an ostrich inside. Little do we know it's not an ostrich...
