The Doctor!

"From the Wizarding World of J.K. Rowling"

huh thought they would gone with "From the World of Harry Potter" I guess Rowling is pushing her name cause she scripted this one

I think this will help flesh out the idea of how the Wizarding world has been a society that hasn't moved forward technologically in the last 75 years.

It's nice Ron Perlman has a chance to be in a decent franchise for once.

Not bad.

As long as it is completely it's own thing and doesn't rely on the Harry Potter-characters history etc then I'm happy.
Harry Potter was perfectly wrapped up and we don't need lots of backstory on it.

So yeah, bring it on!
A really great cast too

Crap, now im excited. Holy sheepsack 2016 marks the first year in my life i'm excited for 3 movie's at once!

1. Civil War
2. Doc Strange
3. Fantastic Beasts

Gotta confess, i may be a little interested in Zootopia as well xD

Who cares about her milking and cashing in on the franchise, if the content is good that is all I care. I'm really excited for this movie.

So, say what you want about his cash grab but...

-It has a clean slate, no books with strict cannon to stick to
-It had a good premise. Magic + NY + Magical Beasts + 1920's
-It can feel like nostalgic of Potter and sort of original at the same time
-They have an amazing production and budget. So, hopefully, good effects
-Good cast
-The possibility to expand to other movies (yes, this character is on a journey for NY in this movie, but I think I saw somewhere that he becomes HOgwarts headmaster at some point)... different movies of the same trilogy, with different stories and settings.
-THe possibility of Hugh Laurie to play the British MInister of Magic... or Daniel Craig to play a Head Auror... or tons of british actors in cool badass roles.

Summary: Yes, totally a cash grab, but it is likely that I will go see it and enjoy it.

To all those Dr Strange fans: I got nothing against strange and if it has good word of mouth I'll go see it, but... there is no chance Strange will be in the big hitters of next year when it is not even going to be the WIzard/Magic movie that more attention is going to get in November alone.

@NeoBaggins

I still haven't watched one Harry Potter film from start to finish, haha

Eddie Redmayne for Riddler!

lemme guess..................it will be a 2-parter, with the 2nd part split into 2 parts.

He was in Sons of Anarchy which was a giant success
