The Secrets Of Dumbledore trailer has just been released and wow did they pack it with some jaw
dropping moments. Theres so many questions, so many theories, so many brain busting puzzling
parts, all from 2 and a half minutes, it is crazy guys! How are we all doing, its Christmas season,
which means its Harry Potter season, which means its Secrets of Dumbledore official
trailer release, now I posted the trailer on the channel for you all to get a good look at while I
was making this follow up video, I also have Covid 19 at the time of this videos construction so I
apologise if I don’t sound super enthusiastic, I assure you I’m very hyped about this movie!
Ok we’re not waiting any longer lets just get straight
in and dissect this trailer, piece by piece and see whats going on! So
it opens with a stunning scene of hogwarts, which is quite a common theme for these
trailers, most likely to give the viewer a nostalgic feeling and to be honest it works.
I also love the haunting yet beautiful score playing in the background, it makes me feel like
things are really getting serious. We then see the golden snitch come on screen so that
indicates to me that we’ll see a full quidditch match, it’s just not clear if
the match is gonna be the actual first scene of the movie, you know how they like to rearrange
scene order for trailers to throw us off. Next we see a scene of an aged dumbledore which
blends into the dumbledore of the past or current dumbledore if we go by the movies timeline. He
says ‘the past whispers to you’ which could be a hint towards the trauma of his own past that still
haunts him, like theres more to what happened all those years ago. Then we see Aberforth Dumbledore
speak to Newt, immediately revealing himself as his brother, no suspense there. I knew Aberforth
was going to be in this movie, do you ever just have that gut feeling? Is he going to have some
relation to Aurelius? Who knows. A very sad looking Dumbledore comes on screen and says
the world is coming undone followed by a shot of what seems like 2 sides of support for a vote.
Now the left side here is written in Chinese symbols and I cant translate that but the right
side, the yellow banner say the supreme chief of the international confederation of wizards. Now it
says bruxos on the end of the banner, the plural of which means wizards so it obviously confirms
that it’s set in Brazil. Then we see the first look of Mads Mikkelson as Gellert Grindelwald.
I have to be honest I thought they were gonna keep with the Depp grindelwald look, the bleach blonde
hair and kind of militia look but its completely different take on him. He doesn’t really look
badass, just kinda more like dumbledore in the 3 piece suits. I’m not too much of a fan of the look
but each to their own. Maybe Mads wanted to make the character his own and I’m sure his acting
skills will take grindelwald in a very commanding direction, I’ll hold my judgement until I see the
movie. Dumbledore then asks Thesius Scamander to trust him if they’re to be successful in defeating
grindelwald. We also see shot of the what I can only assume to be the amazon rainforest
that Newt looks incredibly excited be travelling through with his bow truckle. We then see a cool
shot of Newt entering the grounds of Castelobruxo followed by Thesius listing the team of people
who are trying to defeat Grindelwald, we’ve got bunty who is newts assistant, eulalie hicks,
whose an author, Yusef Kama who started some shit over an unbreakable vow, and mockingly asks who
wouldn’t like their chances. We also see Jacob be given a wand while having a massively surprised
look on his face, indicating he was a wizard all along which actually explains a lot, like how he
got his memories back. We also see a shot of what seems to be nurmengard from a different angle,
I’m assuming it’s nurmengard because of the snowy mountainous terrain. That is then followed
by a flash of a couple of eye catching quick scenes involving one or 2 creatures. Is anyone
of the belief that the fantastic beasts name really hasn’t held very well in terms of the
movies being about magical creatures? This movie alone could be called the Secrets of Dumbledore
and nobody would ask a question on where the fantastic beasts title was. Anyway the hogwarts
quidditch player once again indicates we’ll see a quidditch match which is gonna be really cool.
We also see Dumbledore waving his wand around some sort of giant rock. Now if I was to guess I’d say
that this is somewhat a physical realistic map of the mountainous area that surrounds Castelobruxo.
Just a guess, it could be something completely different. We then see Aberforth ask his brother
if he’s off to save the world again. He doesn’t ask it in the most genuine of ways and you can
sense the animosity between the 2 brothers just from those 3 seconds alone which excites me.
Behind Aberforth on the mirror lies an inscription. I cant really make it out but I
think it reads ‘Run No Risk’ now what that means can only be left to be revealed when the movie
is released. Then we see a phoenix fly down to Creedence, once again highlighting the fact he is
a dumbledore, this is highly likely to be fawkes, who now belongs to him, which makes me think that
after credence dies before the series ends, fawkes will then go to dumbledore himself and thats the
beginning of their relationship. It then cuts to queen and Jacob reconciling after her departure
in the COG but we then here the words ’Things are not always as they appear” indicating that queenie
is only there with Jacob under false pretences and more than likely something will happen to him too,
my alternative take on that, is that it could just be a flashback to when they
first met. Followed by Dumbledore holding the blood pact phial while looking frustrated so
that indicates that he’s nowhere near closer to breaking the pact. Obviously its entitled
fantastic beasts so we’ve gotta see some don’t we? We do in the very next clip, a second or 2 longer
than the other short cut clips, newt using his expertise with magical beasts to ensure that he
and thesis pass unnoticed by the scorpion like craaaaab people craaaaab people lol until they
get chased by this giant monster scorpion crab, like Hagrid but as a crab, lets call him Crabrid,
so crabrid isn’t too happy about newt and his bro and legit tries to squash
them. We then see newt and and Eulalie, duel some aurors or what appears to be aurors.
Quite a remarkable scene, which shows Jacob withstand a massive spell from a queenie who
looks absolutely emotionless while also looking very pissed off which makes me think she’s under
the imperious curse. Credence then slices through a spell that seems to be protego,
like the spell that was used in the battle of hogwarts. Any he slices through it like its
not even there. Vinda Rosier is behind him to his left and some unknown woman on his right.
We then see Grindelwald announcing that the war with the muggles begins today, now this is a long
way from the grindelwald who didn’t really want to harm muggles but more so control them so it’s
going to be interesting to see the development of the character from the previous movie.
Grindelwald is in some bath which I believe to be some kind of giant pensive for him to view
the memories of Yusef Kama and maybe it also functions for his prediction abilities too,
don’t forget he’s also a seer. Probably the moment of the trailer for me comes next with credence,
now Aurelius, charging towards dumbledore with the intent it seems to kill him, only for the
latter to disparate and I can only assume reappear somewhere else to continue to fight
We then see the room of requirement open with a spinning cylinder that takes Dumbledore and
Jacob inside it. Once again I’m assuming but I think it’s some sort of transportation device,
its something they need that helps to get them where they wanna go which is obviously
what the room is for. Why Jacob? Thats the question, I think Jacob is gonna play a
key role in the whole movie, it’s hard to actually work out what it is, I know he’s important but
I’m not surprised they’re giving us these little flashes of Jacob’s importance, the wand, queenie,
the room of requirement. Couple of flashes of some magical creatures and then it shows Aurelius
unleashing the full force of his obscurus towards dumbledore, who calmly just raises
his hand before it cuts to hogwarts and we see dumbledore make the famous “house points” joke.
The final scene is Jacob advising the students not to touch his wand because it can do some
serious damage before revealing he got it as an xmas present. Anyway guys,
thats my take on the trailer, let me know your opinions down below, thanks again for watching!
