Rowling has still got it.

By Brian Wilson /

One of the greatest things about Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them is that its script was written by J.K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter series.

When the film was first announced fans were concerned the movie may not stay true to Rowling's vision, so when it turned out she had penned the story - and planned on writing all four sequels - it was immensely comforting.

The strength of Rowling's writing shows. Fantastic Beasts is bursting with likeable, memorable characters, from bumbling Newt Scamander to the frequently wide-eyed Jacob Kowalski. Brilliant too is their dialogue, witty, touching and often hilarious. It's clear that Rowling hasn't lost her spark.

Let's relive the most memorable moments, then, through the film's twenty best lines.

20. On Suffering

"My philosophy is, if you worry, you suffer twice." - Newt Scamander

Wise words, Newt. Bob Marley said something similar in his hit song Don't Worry Be Happy. Maybe he stole the sentiment from you?
