      Not to say that you're wrong, because you're not, but she also flat out needs someone who can tell her no, that's a bad idea don't do that.
      Also, there's a real simple way you have Queenie and Jacob fall in with Grindewald. You have him be the opposite of Voldemort. Instead of being about pure blood Grindewald is all about bringing in the various disenfranchised elements of the wizarding world and elevating muggleborns and mixed marriage and exposing themselves to the muggle world and all of that. Then we find out he's using people on the fringes of wizard society to gain followers against the ministry of magic, which as we saw in the books isn't always the best government and is at the best of times borderline incompetent and at the worst of times tyrannical and power hungry. Then, at the end of that fight you see some of the old families, like the Malfoys, Blacks, Lestranges and maybe even the Weasleys or Longbottoms or even Potters or whatever start to push for stricter standards and greater influence by the pure blood wizarding aristocracy. This means that Voldemort didn't come out of a vacuum, he was able to tap into antimuggle, antimuggleborn sentiment in the aftermath of Grindewalds attempted coup (This plays off the WWI and WWII analogies that Rowling sort of flirts with with the relationship between Fantastic Beasts and the main Harry Potter series, Grindewalds coup was the Wizards version of the First World War, and in their eagerness to not repeat that mistake they leave the door open for something far worse in Voldemeort which is what happened with Hitler). That adds a layer of depth to everything and even means that despite how it turned out, there was a time when the Death Eaters maybe didn't mean well, but they actually had a point. Maybe we even find out that the term Death Eater actually predates Voldemort, or there were similar societies that fell out of favor with the larger wizarding society or something (again like the Nazis there were a lot of similar small "workers" parties in the years immediately after WWI).

    I never got any inclination of Harry and Hermione having a "will they or won't they?" relationship in the books. It always seemed like their relationship was purely platonic and they relied on each other more as siblings. Ron always had at least one sibling in school with him and comes from a large magical family while Harry and Hermione didn't have any siblings and have Muggle families so it seemed natural for them to depend on each other more as siblings. Harry never pondered on his feelings toward Hermione and Hermione never indicated that she was ever attracted to Harry so I never understood why people felt that Harry, Ron and Hermione were in some kind of love triangle.

They didn't have to show them kissing or anything that blatant even...just really all they had to do was NOT insert that stupid line at the end where they basically say that Dumbledore's most desired was to end his stupid blood pact with Grindelwald. The mirror scene as it was was PERFECT in establishing Dumbledore and Grindelwald's relationship. But they just destroyed that dynamic completely at the end of the movie.

    Grindlewald is more of a wizard Stalin than Hitler. Voldemort's got the Hitler thing covered.
    The Swooping Evil potion (extract) that Newt uses to wipe the memories of everyone in the first movie is not the same as the Obliviate spell. Newt states it can be used for erasing bad memories when he's extracting it early in the movie. (Not done watching the video yet but it bugs me that you'd get that wrong)

      It's still silly writing because he needed to erase/obliviate the memories of all the people in New York who witnessed the magic at the end of the film. But while many people might have been scared or confused, it's likely at least a few of them would have been filled with wonder or happiness that such magic/beauty exists in the world so their memories would have been intact (and it's stupid for Newt to assume that all the muggles would only have bad memories of the event in the first place). So that means there are plenty of muggles walking around who are now fully aware that magic/wizards exist.

      @@razzle2429 agreed. The people they showed all seemed to be a scared but there could be some Jacobs running around with partial memories. Even he forgot and only remembered subconsciously until Queenie showed up. I'd blame MACUSA for being uncharacteristically lazy to let Newt do what he did but the movie can only cover so much. It's semi-irrelevant to the plot to know if they are just keeping tabs on muggle chatter about events that were supposed to be forgotten in case the need to fully Obliviate them.

    Just a small note, but what was used in the first movie to erase everyone's memories was not the spell obliviate from the books. Newt used venom from one of his creatures which he talked about earlier in the movie. He actually explained then that it was for removing bad memories.
    That being said, it's still terrible, because it is inconsistent: not erasing memories of wizards out in the rain, erasing memories of people not out in the rain, how does the venom discriminate between which bad memories it erases, and what about the people who saw the magic and thought it was cool (not frightening)?

    Queenie's character pissed me off so much. Film one portrays her to be empathetic, resourceful, and level-headed. Film 2 overhauls that and makes her irrational, selfish, and inconsiderate with no context. She knows how bad Grindelwald is, why join him? She knows that Jacob loves her, why enchant and kidnap him to England? When Tina is in danger she quickly saves them with as much calm as possible, so why after leaving Jacob and failing to find Tina cause her to break down in the middle of the street?! She's been a Legilimens her whole life and now all of a sudden she can't seem to hold back anyone's emotions/thoughts?! WHAT!?!

And wouldn't she be able to read Grindelwald's mind and realize he's full of crap and will most likely kill Jacob/other muggles.
