    I agree with your last point, but is seems to me that people are enchanted with this setting and would really like to revisit Hogwarts. So I would say I disagree with you on that it is not soon enough.

      A spinoff would be fine. It seems to be working pretty well for the Star Wars universe.

      A “reboot” however, would be a bit silly, given how that usually means restarting the whole story from scratch, most often with a new cast and sometimes sizeable changes to the writing.

      The article may have used the term a bit loosely and meant that just the writing was being restarted from a stop/hiatus, while retaining the original continuity.

        Yeah, I think a spin off would be best.

        But the fantastic beasts are rather dissapointing. I feel like Rowling will ruin any film she will write, and I doubt she will let someone else do it, so my hopes aren’t high. The main story is at least decent and interesting enough.
