This blog is going to talk about various objects and characters that are in the movie, and how they compose the movie.
1. The suitcase
The movie wouldn't be Fantastic Beasts without it in fact, there wouldn't be Newt (the main character), or Jacob Kowalski, who was brought in because Newt was chasing his Niffler who escaped the suitcase, so Newt crossed paths with Jacob because he was looking for his Niffler (more on the Niffler later). And then if that happened he would have never met Porpentina, and then she wouldn't have taken him to the police of magic, and then etc. etc. in other words the movie wouldn't have happened without the suitcase.
We are first introduced to the suitcase when Newt gets off the boat and he is at customs. At first we know there in a creature in it because there is thumping, and we even get a peek at some claws. But then the customs officer asks him to open the case, but as Newt is doing this Newt flicks a switch that says "Muggle Worthy" at first we don't know what this means, personally I thought he was letting the creature know to hide. So when it is opened there is nothing to be seen.
Of course later we find out that it is magical, and it holds many creatures.
2. The Niffler
Here are some funny scenes with the niffler and more. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kk2ONbaOSYM#t=436.814998113)
Same thing as the suitcase, if the Niffler hadn't been there many things wouldn't have happened. The main thing being that Newt wouldn't have met Jacob, also many funny things wouldn't happen, for when the Niffler escapes some other creatures do to, but the Niffler is definitely the one they spend the most time on. There are very many laughs in the chase, one where Newt is looking around for the Niffler and ends up seeing him trying to be a statue.
Also before I forget, as you can see the Niffler looks quite a lot like a platypus, but it has craving for anything shiny. That is why all the photos you can find of him will be with some type of shinies. Through the entire chase to get him back into the suitcase the Niffler is after jewels. In the book we are told that Nifflers are mainly used by goblins to find gold.
There are more funny scenes, but I won't tell you them, because then why would you go to the movie?
3. Pickette the Bowtruckle
A Bowtruckle is a stick like creature that resembles a human and is rather small, because of its thin legs and arms it is very good at picking locks.
The Bowtruckle is the most loyal animal, or you could say the one that wreaks the least amount of havoc, or even maybe the most tamed. Whatever it is the Bowtruckle is the one that stays with him the entire movie, you could also say the Swooping Evil is with him too, but the swooping evil mostly stays in his pocket, except for a couple battles.
When they first enter the suitcase Newt tries to put Pickette back with Pickette's family, but Pickette refuses to go, so he ends up staying with hime the entire time.
Pickette ends up getting Newt out of jail by picking the locks.
4. The Demiguise
The Demiguise is a monkey/Yoda figure. In body it resembles a monkey, but the face is quite wise, and the eyes have that look of all knowing. They might not be all knowing, but they know the near future.
In the movie the Demiguise keeps care of a loose creature that escaped the suitcase.
5. The ThunderBird
A magnificent beast the is native to Arizona and can control the weather. But usually it is really chill and is really nice and loves pets.
The ThunderBird is the main reason Newt goes to America, because he found the ThunderBird tied up and abused, so he brought it back to America.
Thank you for reading my blog, and I hope you enjoy this short highlight of my favourite creatures.
