Does that hate towards Mads Mikkelsen represent us as a fandom? Absolutely not! We better than anyone know how does it feel when our idol is hated.

No Mads has nothing to do with Warners... he is a good actor, my fav danish, but he is not my Grindelwald and to keep trying to prove that he is not Johnny is all wrong! Johnny do not need us to prove him! Johnny do not owe any explanation to anyone, so all the talk is just dumb
