Please wake up to the art of remakes and adaptations.
Open up your eyes. There is such a thing as “a good adaptation” and “a bad adaptation” and the word that separates one from the other is “faithfulness.”
Stop going to movie adaptations of your favorite book, cartoon, or comic, when they are not faithful. Because guess what? Amazing fanfiction writers are out here sacrificing what they subjectively like because they’re committed to staying true to the original story they love.
You guys know what a good fan-work is, because it stays faithful. It stays faithful to the character’s motivations (and therefore, who the characters are) and it stays faithful to what the theme of the story is. So stop going to Hollywood’s bad fanfiction, and giving people who don’t care about the source material your time, attention, and money.
Stop going to a movie that has nothing to do with the content of your favorite story just because you want to see what it looks like on the big screen. Yeah, seeing Percy Jackson’s sword pop out in CGI was neat but that’s not Percy Jackson, so no, it wasn’t that neat.
Just read fanfiction that’s faithful. That’s what you really want. More of what you love, not cheap imitations that stole your favorite franchise’s face.

You ever watch a movie adaptation so bad it makes you revisit the entirety of it's origonal franchise?
Anyways I'm on the Arctic Incident now and I think you can expect fanart.

You know I (completely reasonably) bad mouth the movie called Artemis Fowl as an adaptation. But to try to balance the cosmic scales, the Series of Unfortunate Events movie(I haven't watched the show enough to judge it). Does it follow the events perfectly, oh heavens no, but it still keeps the vibe, the characters all feel like the characters, there wasn't a single moment of "they wouldn't do that!" or "that's not how that works", heck they even modified the way the author would step in mid book to work with the change of medium. And to put my biases on the table, Unfortunate Events was the first books I ever read, they by that fact hold a higher place of honor in my mind than Artemis Fowl (not saying which is better than the other just that sentimentally Events is more important to me[even if it's name is massive enough that I keep shortening it]) so if Paramount butchered Events like Disney butchered Artemis Fowl, I'd probably still be holding a grudge against Paramount

I feel like seeing the Lockwood and Co trailer has given me so much more expectation for the show because I’m still recovering from the dissapointment of the Artemis Fowl movie and I cannot express how little I was allowing myself to be excited for this show until the trailer showed itself to be so good!!

Holy shit the Artemis Fowl movie is somehow even worse than my lowest expectations.
I don’t know what the hell I just watched but it was not Artemis Fowl, WHY IS THE NAME OF OUR BELOVED BOOKS ATTACHED TO THIS PILE OF CRAP!?!?
I need to take a shower to purge myself of the absolute filth I just watched.

Oh, I forgot to mention, when I saw Eoin at the Dalkey Book Festival the other day, the woman he was speaking with said something like "We haven't even mentioned the movie," and Eoin replied with something like "I try not to."
It's the first time I've heard him say anything with a potential negative interpretation about the movie, previously he's said that he liked it and was being very positive about it. I wonder if it's just the reception from fans and critics he doesn't like, or - as I've always suspected - the movie itself.

just found a compilation of holly short scenes from the artemis fowl movie
youtube
(not by me!)
if you:
-ignore the painful fact that the casting is inaccurate to the books' description and think of lara mcdonnell's holly as an alternate universe holly
-look past all the mentions of the 'aculos' egg acorn thing
-and all the other stuff that doesn't make any sense
these scenes are good! and the acting is great! (especially when she punches artemis heh)
just wish the full movie stayed true to everyone's character, but oh well.

Yeah. The ‘Artemis Fowl’ movie is GONE. No longer exists.
We are living in an age where media can just be erased from existence and that scares me. Still glad I never watched it

Once again a book adaptation has betrayed me.
What if we invented a streaming service for bookworms that was just the book, scene by scene, no changes, exactly as it was written?

Every now and then I remember that the man who directed a movie I have loved since I was a child and seen countless times (Much Ado About Nothing) also directed a movie I hate so much I have not seen it even once (Artemis Fowl), and I think, Kenneth, why did you have to do me like that? All I wanted was to watch Much Ado in peace and bless you for having given me the eternal gift of Emma Thompson running around being an absolute god among men in a tantalising white dress. Why did you have to ruin it, Kenneth? Why did you have to contain so many multitudes? You didn’t need them, nobody wanted them. Nobody asked for this, Kenneth!
