In 1862, daredevil balloon pilot Amelia Wren (Felicity Jones) teams up with pioneering meteorologist James Glaisher (Eddie Redmayne) to advance human knowledge of the weather and fly higher than anyone in history. While breaking records and advancing scientific discovery, their voyage to the very edge of existence helps the unlikely pair find their place in the world they have left far below them. But they face physical and emotional challenges in the thin air, as the ascent becomes a fight for survival.

Starring: Felicity Jones, Eddie Redmayne, Himesh Patel, Anne Reid, Tim McInnerny, Phoebe Fox, Tom Courtenay, Vincent Perez
Are you ready for the new movie of Fantastic Beasts?
I can’t wait to see it! Through i will feel lonely not having Johnny Depp as Grindelwald. Plus we will be seeing a younger version of Newt Schamander… i hope we get to see Eddie Redmayne, cause i love his performance on all of his movies! Specially on Fantastic Beasts!
And of course i need some niffler and bowtruckle scenes cause they are sooo cute!
Listen, acting is not surgery, it’s entertainment. You’re doing something to hopefully move people, to make them laugh, to transport them. But actors are vulnerable, and the reason we’re vulnerable is that we’re always trying to recreate human behaviour.
Although I do like the Newtina ship, but as a black female fan of the Harry Potter franchise, I was rooting for Leta and Newt more. Taking away the race dynamics, Leta and Newt simply have more chemistry than Newt and Tina. The way that Newt starred at the photo of her in the first film was beautiful. Leta Lestrange’s storyline is incredibly hurtful and offensive. If you’re going to write more diversie characters, specifically black female characters, don’t write her as the product of the rape of a black woman, a “tragic mulatto,” and then only to have her sacrifice herself for her white suitors. Regardless of which Scamander she ended up with, I wanted Leta to be more than a mere footnote in the love story of Newt Scamander and Tina Goldstein’s relationship. I wanted to see more black women be sought after and loved as full human beings and love interest in sci-fi/fantasy. I know that Tina and Newt’s marriage and Bellatrix Lestrange exist in the HP books. So, does that mean JK Rowling planned this awful storyline from the beginning? However, At the very least, a fun friendship between Leta, Newt, Tina, Queenie, and Jacob. I honestly wish JK Rowling hadn’t even created Leta Lestrange to disrespect her in this way.
*Thinks men are trash because women and femmes are systematically oppressed through patriarchy*
*Thinks maybe men aren’t trash because Newt Scamander, T'Challa, Jack Pearson, and Randall Pearson all exist*
*Remembers these men are all fictional characters and I rarely meet men in real life as extraordinary as ones on film, and rarely see women on film as extraordinary as ones I know in real life.*
A new photo of me in my Newt Scamander cosplay!! AHH I love it, so pleased with how it came together!! I’m definitely going to modify the trousers a bit more but I’ve got a while until the film actually comes out luckily :D I’m also still searching for the perfect suitcase! I hope you guys like it :)
A bebe, cradling a bebe, being watched over by a bebe. Newt is precious and must be protected at all costs and I will absolutely fight you if need be. That’s it. That’s the post.
