This is a very serious time in the universe’s timeline, which makes it all the more frustrating that Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald was split between Grindelwald’s movement gaining traction and a grown man fumbling to tell a woman he has romantic feelings for her.
It’s especially bothersome when the latter event of the two is supposed to be the main character’s storyline.
Make no mistake, things are going to get worse in the Wizarding World before they get better.
