Go to pirate bay and find a torrent with the audiobooks - Jim Dale or Stephen Fry - and you're off to the races.

It'll be like Vikings S3 when they were like "Oh shit, Ragnar's gotta die eventually..." and suddenly the time jumps are smaller and smaller and the story became too cluttered.

She was easily my least favorite part of the film. But I don't think she's all that interesting as a performer in general and the script doesn't give her a ton to do. She took a big backseat in this compared to part 1.

As a huge fan, I can say it's already good and I'm pumped for a 5 film series. But I'm only one person. I'm sure there are many more in your and Bune's camp.

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I really enjoyed the first FB movie and look forward to rewatching it before I see this new one (I will be waiting for the 4K release before I do that, of course). I thought the romance subplot was particularly affecting and memorable.

One of the things I missed the most from this movie was the chemistry/romance between Newt and Tina. It's there, obviously, but it's a tertiary plot-line. They do have one scene though that... :heartbeat:

TCOG just takes this in such crazy new directions. Just like Chamber of Secrets, this movie feels like a soft reboot/launching off point for a much bigger story. I'm so excited to see where the final three movies take us.

Oh, I didn't mean Newt. I meant the other guy. With the mustache.

OH! Yeah, that is the more interesting romance to me as well. And that's a much bigger subplot in this. A lot of reviews I've seen are upset with it, but I was fascinated by where that goes in this movie.

She took the one baby and replaced it with her brother. Her brother drowned but they never (or at least I didn't see) what happened to the other baby.

I read an article today with fan theories in it. I used to hate those (and I still do too) but it's a way that the ending makes sense.

I thought the implication was that the other baby was Credence, no?

And I mean that in both what she did to him at the beginning and the choice she made at the end. Wow. I really liked the subtext how beliefs can make you do things that are so counter to what people think you would do.

And the last "you're crazy" and he said it out loud...that hurt, man. I felt that.
