| | 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them' first movie plot finally revealed!
The plot of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them's first movie has finally been revealed! Do note that this is more of how the film starts and isn't the entire plot, but at least finally gives an idea of what's to come. Quote:
Eccentric magizoologist Newt Scamander (Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne) comes to New York (for a reason we won’t disclose) with his trusty weathered case. This case is one of those way-way-way-bigger-on-the-inside magical devices, and within are expansive habitats for a collection of rare and endangered magical creatures from Newt’s travels around globe.
He discovers the American wizarding community is fearfully hiding from Muggles (who are called “No-Maj” in the States, more on that) and the threat of public exposure is an even graver concern than in the UK (remember the Salem witch trials?). Fantastic Beasts is the story of what happens when this uniquely skilled English wizard travels to wiz-phobic America and a variety of his creatures, some quite dangerous … get out of their case.
Warner Bros. original idea was this, but Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling shut it down by writing her own script, which is now the current production. Quote:
Well, you make a faux documentary about the book’s “author” Newt Scamander tracking all sort of magical beasties.

Thank God they didn't go the documentary route. This sounds so much more whimsical and exciting perfect Wizarding World. I'm excited to adopt that phrase into my HP language, we can have the Harry Potter series and JK Rowling's Wizarding World Series.

Very curious how it will become a trilogy, but not unhappy about it. Looking forward to more Wizarding stories!

so basically its.... Noah's Ark meets Jumanji??
well theres one thing im pleasantly surprised about-- is that the Salem Witch Trials have some pretty tangible effects on the American Wizarding community. that makes a lot of sense, and should be one of those key elements to how and why American Wizards would develop differently from those across the pond, well at least during the early part of the 20th century.
im extremely curious about what spell theyre gonna use to make Newt's briefcase the size of a sanctuary. Is it gonna be the Undetectable Extension Charm? or is there another more sophisticated spell or procedure to get a briefcase to contain something that big?

LOL I love the faux documentary genre but that would have been all sorts of wrong for a full-length Harry Potter film! And of course his suitcase is bigger on the inside... bit like a TARDIS, innit?
