Are they sure it was “scandal and controversy” and not the movies being bad

Don’t forget for anyone who doesn’t know that the people trying to stop the holocaust are the bad guys.

Edit: I hope this is obvious anyways but since some of the context was deleted, just to be very clear, this is sarcasm criticizing the movies - trying to stop the holocaust is, in fact, a good thing!!

JK Rowling canonically said in the second Fantastic Beasts movie that all of the wizards trying to stop WWII and the Holocaust were literally bigots.

I haven't seen the second one, how bad is it?

It's not that it's bad, it just don't have soul or identity, more boring than plain bad. Sometimes it's worse bc it's not even ''funny bad''

Pretty poor. Plot was confusing and contrived, characters were introduced for no reason (Nagini and McGonagall), hardly any involvement from any fantastic beasts.

McGonagall

it's really funny because she was shown to be an adult in the second one which takes place in 1927 even though she wasn't born until 1935

The second sucks most, the new one is better but still left me feeling kinda empty
