Harry Potter: 5 Things We Want From Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them

1. Explain The Confusion Of Creature Classification

Harry Potter 5 According to Newt's Fantastic Beasts book, creatures are categorised as either beasts or beings based on their ability to speak and their level of intelligence. Centaurs, for example, are intelligent enough to be classified as beings, but prefer to be recognized as beasts. Werewolves are handled as both beings and beasts depending on the particular department within the Ministry of Magic, and leprechauns could easily be considered beings if they'd request the change, though they haven't. We want to see this process in action, we want to see centaur pride as they choose to remain beasts. Labels are compelling things; we obsess over them whether children or adults, so let's see some labelling in action, and the potential consequences of it. What have we missed? What do you want to see in a Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them movie? Let us know in the comments section below.

I'm currently a stay-at-home wife in Wyoming, though I grew up in Michigan and lived in Alaska for six years while I attended school. My husband is epic, my two cats are ridiculous (and may well succeed in turning me into a crazy cat lady yet), and I proudly identify as a geek. I have a TARDIS tattoo, and a TARDIS engagement ring, so it's fairly safe to say that I adore "Doctor Who." I also happen to enjoy video games, music, and arts. I am the former Arts and Entertainment Editor at The Northern Light (my university's campus paper), and I also contributed a few articles to the Anchorage Press.
