I know I said Fantastic Beasts 3 should explore the Scamanders, but if that isn’t working, then give it the boot.
There’s just too many moving parts distracting Crimes of Grindelwald from developing the things that matter, so Fantastic Beasts 3 needs a renewed and simplified focus.
Fantastic Beasts 3 can work to fix this by cutting down all the superfluous material.
The Crimes of Grindelwald is a very busy movie that is heavy on plot and exposition but never really feels like anything is happening.
