I’m completely cured.
The mystery of Dumbledore, the third in the series of Fantastic Animals, has been released in China. Obviously, its reputation is lower than expected, even worse than the first two works.
There are still many people who react and don’t understand.
As a prequel to Harry Potter, the two series have the same magical worldview, but this time they do have a deeper connection. If they are not HP ten scholars, they are likely to be confused.
Time Jun summed up 13 noteworthy points, so that everyone can "make up lessons" together.
01
Magical animal
The series "Fantastic Animals" originally came from a Hogwarts textbook "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" written by Rowling in his early years. The author of this book is the protagonist of the movie series "Fantastic Animals" (maybe he has become a supporting actor now? ) Newt Scarmand.
This book is neither a novel (like the original Harry Potter) nor a script (like the script book of Fantastic Animals). It can be said to be an index of "Fantastic Animals", which includes all kinds of knowledge about them. Therefore, the film series "Fantastic Animals" must have the amazing appearances of various magical animals such as sniffing, tree-protecting Luo Guo, Li Wu, Thunderbird, horse-shaped monster and poisonous horn beast.
Every time I sniff, I try to contribute a famous scene.
In the original Harry Potter series, animals such as phoenix, thestral, fire dragon and Buckbeak also played important roles in different stages of Harry’s life.
In "Fantastic Animals 3", there are new entrants such as Kirin, Scorpion bijuu and Winged Birds who have made new contributions.
02
Polyjuice potion’s clever "Gryffindor know-it-all" (this phrase is not derogatory unless it is used by Professor Snape) hermione granger can make polyjuice potion in the second grade! This magic potion can make you look like a different person in a short time, and it has a great effect in the Harry Potter series-Harry and Ron sneak into the Slytherin lounge, Bartemius Crouch, Jr. becomes Professor Moody, and the Iron Triangle breaks into the Ministry of Magic, even in the Privet Drive transfer plan of "Seven Harry", polyjuice potion has contributed a lot. In Fantastic Animals: The Crime of Grindelwald, when Grindelwald disguised himself as the security secretary of the American Magic Congress, it was also thanks to polyjuice potion. In addition, Grindelwald can change three faces in this series, does it make sense? The Secret of Dumbledore’s Family In the Harry Potter series, thanks to the famous gossip reporter rita skeeter’s Life and Lies of Dumbledore, Harry and his family learned about the love and hate between the headmaster and Grindelwald in his early years and the tragedy that happened to Dumbledore’s sister Ariane. Fantastic Animals 3 is subtitled "The Mystery of Dumbledore", which is actually a pun. On the one hand, it should intuitively show the secret relationship between Dumbledore and his old lover Grindelwald, and bring up the family tragedy between Dumbledore’s brother and sister. On the other hand, we should also reveal the true identity of the silent Claydens, Aurili Uus Dumbledore. Although for fans, this reversal is quite speechless.
04
Ministry of international magic
According to the setting, many countries have their own ministries of magic, and their organizational structures are different. Corresponding to the Ministry of Magic in Britain, the institution that performs the function of "government" in the United States is called the Magic Congress (MACUSA).
The top leader of the American Magic Congress is the chairman, while the top leader of the British Ministry of Magic is the minister. There are similar differences-in Harry Potter, British people call people who can’t do magic "Muggle", while Americans call such people "No-Maj".
A very important plot of Fantastic Animals 3 is that Dumbledore wants to prevent Grindelwald from running for the new president of the International Wizarding Alliance.
This has also opened up a magical world with a more grand world view for us. The story happened not in Britain and the United States, but also in China, the magical leader Liu, and the election place was also in the mysterious ancient country of Bhutan.
Although this scene can also be ignored.
05
Magic world entrance
Just as there is diagon alley in London, England, other big cities where magicians gather also have special places like "diagon alley" to connect the Muggle world with the magical world.
There is a similar circus in Paris, and there is a bar run by goblins in this place in new york, USA-similar to leaky cauldron in London.
In Fantastic Animals 3, we will also see such a "special place" in Berlin, Germany.
In addition to the entrance to the magical world, the entrance to the Ministry of Magic is also located in the bustling Muggle city center, which is hidden by magic and has a special entrance or password. Only wizards can enter and leave freely.
Unlike the telephone booth in London (password is 62442——magic), the entrance of the Ministry of Magic in Paris is a fountain with a statue behind it.
06
Rita lestrange
Real HP fans will be shocked when they hear the name "lestrange".
Bellatrix lestrange, Voldemort’s number one deputy in the Harry Potter series, took the husband’s surname after marriage-she was a member of the Black family and married rodolphus lestrange.
In the Fantastic Animals series, Rita was originally the fiancee of her brother Theseus and the ex-girlfriend of her younger brother Newt.
The film spent a whole episode exploring the blood relationship between Rita and Claydens, and the final conclusion was: it didn’t matter, but Rita finally died.
In the third film, the relationship between the Scarmand brothers looks good. Although it was a bit awkward when they first met again, it was not blocked by Rita’s death.
07
Silent books
In the world of Harry Potter, the wizard book publishing house that publishes Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is called Silent Book Company.
"Silent" in Fantastic Animals refers to a dark magical force in the magical world.
In order to escape bad luck, young wizards will suppress their magic power, but because of lack of guidance, they have not learned to control and control their own power, so they have derived a parasite-dark magic power silently.
The silent host is called "Silent Person", including Claydens and Lao Deng’s sister Ariane, and the powerful power of Claydens has always been coveted by Grindelwald.
However, Claydens also proved on his own that those who are silent can still be saved.
08
Return to Hogwarts
Every time a Hogwarts scene appears in Fantastic Animals, BGM is the most famous "Hedway Variations" in Harry Potter movies, which was created by john williams.
In Fantastic Animals 3, Newt and his party not only took the pig’s head bar in Hogsmeade village as the meeting place, but Dumbledore also let Jacob, the chosen melon, enter Hogwarts as never before.
Just say which muggle doesn’t envy, envy and hate?
09
Other HP eggs
"Fantastic Animals 3" invited Steve Kloves, an old screenwriter of Harry Potter series, to return and write the script with Rowling, so the concentration of emotional killing was also maximized.
In addition to returning to Hogwarts, you can also see the Snitch, Quidditch Competition, funny candy with a strange taste, a cruel monster book that bites people, and Lao Deng’s classic "XXXX College Plus Three Points" and so on.
Have you noticed all this?
10
Professor McGonagall
Professor McGonagall’s appearance is also a big surprise!
During the Harry Potter period, Professor McGonagall was born in 1935 and began to teach at Hogwarts in 1956.
However, in the 1920s when the series of "Fantastic Animals" movies took place, minerva mcgonagall appeared as a young woman, and the birth year of Professor McGonagall on Pottermore was also deleted, so I felt the efforts of the crew.
11
room of requirement
Of course, we can’t miss the room of requirement.
The room of requirement in the Harry Potter series is a magical place, and one can only go in when one really needs it.
This is the secret stronghold where Harry leads D.A. to carry out magic training. His first kiss with cho chang is here. He hides the potions textbook of the half-blood prince on this side. Malfoy introduced the Death Eaters to Hogwarts through the room of requirement, and killed President Dumbledore. Ravenclaw’s crown, as one of Voldemort’s horcruxes, is also hidden here …
In the Fantastic Animals series, as an important part of Hogwarts, the room of requirement is also playing a role.
twelve
Mirror of Eris
In the Harry Potter series, little Harry once stood in front of Eris sunglasses and eagerly looked at his parents and other deceased family members in the mirror-a mirror that shows your deepest desire.
Principal Dumbledore once lied to Harry that he saw himself in the mirror with a pair of wool socks in his hand.
We saw in the series "Fantastic Animals" that the young Dumbledore actually saw in the mirror the former best friend and ex-boyfriend Grindelwald (Depp’s face at that time …).
13
Blood alliance
Although he didn’t tell Harry, Dumbledore actually "came out" in front of Newt and his party.
He told everyone that he and Grindelwald had formed a "blood alliance" because of their love, and they could not hurt each other, so they had to turn to them to deal with him.
However, at the end of "Fantastic Animals 3", the two still waved their magic wand to start a confrontation, and Dumbledore’s blood alliance bottle was also broken at this time.
As for Grindelwald’s bottle of blood alliance, he wore it all his life.
Finally, after watching the movie, did you get high?
