There is simply a lot that was different and way bigger than Civil War.

I guess laser lights aren’t her thing 😕
Solo was beating Black Panther in presales, yet it never even opened above $90M on OW. I’m very curious to see how this fares overseas, Europe and Australia might eat this film up but elsewhere such as Latin America, I’m not so sure.
I just feel like while the first film was fine, it should’ve just been left just at that, no sequels. A similar tactic to Rogue One; a one off story in a large universe. Dumbledore/Grindelwald should’ve been it’s own story with maybe Newt thrown in there to connect the films.
So is this a prequel reboot?
Honestly if it’s good and barely has connections to the rest of the franchise, I wouldn’t mind if this becomes the first installment in a rebooted series
