Review: (#1-#19) It’s nice to see the fantastic beasts get their own character posters and while the colors are well balanced throughout and the individual characters are given unique poses and locales, they don’t entirely work. (#20) A hamfisted inclusion of a handful of characters you might find interesting, but who are given almost nothing to do with a rather dull background and an out of place phoenix to add a pop of color.

(#21) Lots of characters, but nothing in the way of compelling details. (#22) A nice balance of images with a pleasing color scheme. The filigree accents add just a touch of interest. (#23) It’s an earlier design without the same level of detail and that’s not an improvement since that design also lacked enough details. (#24-#28) This series isn’t character designs per se, but expressions of the different viewing and sound formats audiences will see the film in. It’s nice that they are distinctive from each other, but they aren’t an improvement over the past actual character designs. (#29) This is a better attempt to draw in the audience. Characters we’re familiar with, characters we aren’t and a balance of action that’s at least somewhat interesting. (#30-#31) This pair of competing designs would look lovely together and that makes them a lot more interesting than they actually are combined.

Trailer Rating: B+ / B / B-

SEE ALL TRAILERS BELOW
Review: (#1) The forced humor and excessive cutting that flows through this trailer almost upends whatever good it’s trying to accomplish, that of showing a lot of fabulous visuals and and handful of interesting scenes.

(#2) The first trailer was exciting to a modest extent and there’s lots of action in this second trailer, but it never gives the audience a rooting interest in the narrative. Plus, putting forth the Rowling name, in spite of her rampant toxicity, seems like a poor choice for an experienced studio to make.

(#3) With each new, the film looks more impressive, but less compelling and when you’re based on a worldwide phenomenon, you have to nail both aspects in your trailer to truly guide people to the theater.

Oscar Prospects:

This series has done quite well in terms of creative citations, but as the prior series did, this one may be fading in popularity.
