The Potter Discussion: Harry Potter, Fantastic Beasts and the Wizarding World Fandom

2. The Thestral Chase
3. Spread the Word
4. The Room We Require
5. A Close Friend
6. Wands Into the Earth

Topics:

• The Fantastic Beasts opening titles can't be ignored. This is the very first scene in the very first film, so everything needs to be perfect. And it is! In this piece, we hear the Fantastic Beasts theme for the first time, and we're introduced to the characters. It is an excellent all around piece of music.
• A Close Friend in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is another well done piece. It isn't full of action and spells, rather a conversation between friends. It is quiet and peaceful, choir replacing brass. This piece inspires melancholy, yet hope, and is a fantastic edition to the film.
• Wands Into the Earth is my all-time favorite piece in the entire Fantastic Beasts franchise! It plays when Grindelwald has adjourned the meeting at Cimetière du Père-Lachaise and casts dragons of fire. Newt works with the rest of the heroes to save the day, plunging their wands into the Earth and creating a barrier that prevents the dragons from escaping. It is a marvelous piece well deserving of the top spot.
• Much More!
