So, can they pull off five films? Is the overarching plot coherent and deep enough to justify that?
Don't see why not. "Pirates of the Caribbean" is doing as much with less.

True, but PotC doesn't have quite the rabid following of the Potterverse.

QED.

My implication was there are a poo-poo load more critics out there for the Potterverse.

Ah, so.
 
I saw it, I liked it. I'd watch more, I certainly appreciated that the main characters were all socially awkward without any sort of "coming out of their shell" subplot. It also felt more adult than the Harry Potter films, or at least the first 5 of them.

I was a little irked by Scamander's body language. It makes me nervous when someone won't look me in the eye.
