Wait - it's just a reboot? That's odd; if Rowling is involved, there's a TON of universe they could mine still.
That said, the movies kinda sucked. They were just weird and often unnecessarily so. And I will continue to insist that the actors were largely shite, especially Daniel Radcliffe.
HBO could actually do this pretty well, though I'm still a little puzzled as to why they're re-booting a property that's only like 15 years old instead of going with a sequel or spinoff. Hell, even prequels could be interesting given the amount of time that takes place between the Fantastic Beasts series and the energy they put into describing the previous rise/fall of Voldemort in the books.
Just a strange decision; seems entirely risk averse.
