Okay lemme start from why Newt Scamander is the chosen one by Dumbledore... Because Dumbledore choses people who always do what they're asked to without questioning him, Snape Harry Hagrid so many more people .

.. Dumbledore asks for trust and choose people who'll do the right things always.... Newt Scamander was sent to New York by Dumbledore because Newt knows how to extract an obscures.. plus he doesn't hate his brother or he isn't insensitive to all the girls because he just can't feel empathy to his fellow Humans like he does to the beasts.

He is tries being more expressive with Tina but fails to.... And talking about Queine ... She puts Jacob under confundus charm so he could love her... She makes him her beast of burden.... Even though he loves her back.

.. The direct comparison can be made to Voldemort's mother Merope who jinxed Tom riddle Sr. With love potion and married him and then when he was finally sober he refused to be with her and that's why Voldemort was born without love.

.. Another example is what Severus Snape did for Lilly Potter... He wanted dark lord to kill James and Harry so he could love her...... JK's message is pretty clear... Good people make bad choices in love.

.. Newt Scamander is the best character in the movie because he knows who he is and has a very strong character and a back story to back his actions.. Even in Hogwarts he refuses to go home in Christmas just to nurse the beasts.

... He wants to do the same with credence.... Dumbledore cares about credence and hence wants newt to take care of him...... Whereas Leita Lestrange choice of swapping that baby makes sense because she is a Lestrange.

.... They feel people are deplorables... That runs in the black family too... Even Corvious Lestrange would treat women as deplorable.... So it's makes perfect sense why Leita Lestrange would swap and kill the baby.

... Finally Nicholas flamel is the only one who knows how to protect the entire city because he is one of the most powerful wizards in wizarding world... Plus ofcourse to show no one is as Powerful in this universe as Dumbledore or Grindelwald except if you're 650 years old!!! Hope you do a bit of homework because the movie is on point with JK's universe.

.. Just we don't have the next book to understand why something's are important like we had with HP movies....
