Why It's Doomed: Though it'll be fun to see Jude Law playing a young Dumbledore, it's just hard to get especially invested in a franchise that's already carved out a five-movie arc for itself, meaning we most likely get a few more movies of the villainous Gellert Grindelwald evading capture ahead of a climactic showdown in part five.

More to the point, audiences collectively rolled their eyes when Colin Farrell turned into Johnny Depp at the end of the first film, and his hammy presence here could ultimately be more detrimental to the film, given how many viewers are long fed-up of his OTT shtick.

Yes, it's going to be a box office smash no matter what, but after the first film itself was a pretty workmanlike outing, it's hard to expect much but disappointment.
