Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

I found a featurette with comments from JK Rowling and some of the cast members earlier today.

WWII did happen in the Potter-verse. And Grindelwald, I think, wouldn't have had a problem using Muggles if it got him what he wanted.

Johnny Depp has been cast in the Fantastic Beasts sequel in an unspecified role.

Rumor is he'll be making a cameo in the first movie.

Oh, man! That means FB2 is going to bomb at the box office now!

Has the marketing for Fantastic Beasts been really light, or what? Grated, I don't have cable (where the majority of advertising hits me) but I do watch local channels nightly, and compared to, say, Doctor Strange, I've seen nothing--zip!--for Fantastic Beasts, whereas I can't escape Doc Strange promos.

Just an observation.

True. We want more Fantastic Beasts but they don't show us Where to Find Them.

 

[Skywalker]

I kinda feel like Warner Bros. is sitting back and just banking on the movie to succeed because "it's Harry Potter." Since I want to see what Rowling has in store for this five-part story arc, I hope this approach doesn't backfire.

Why would they spend money advertising heavily the week that Dr Strange comes out? Why face the heavy competition? Better to let that movie come out and then hit us in the final two weeks.
