    It appears to crib from Artemis Fowl (a book series for babies) and Netflix original film "Bright", but it really doesn't, again it's just the lowest possible hanging fruit that everybody is going to pick up if they're phoning it in. Woah, what if little pixies were *mean*?

    I hated the fact that the movie steered away from the fact that Artemis Fowl was a frigging criminal mastermind and instead made him a mid rebel with a relatable motivation... Have the same grouse about Ender's Game too

    The only "you could get a ten hour series per book out of this" thing I can think of is the Bartimaeus trilogy, and even then I think you'd be thinning the soup out a bit. Maybe you'd get a good "one book per season" mini-series out of Artemis Fowl, I guess? Can't do worse than the film, at least.

    In principle I agree>!!<, but in practice it's not clear cut. The main one is some historic accuracy, I say some because the color of the skin doesn't really matter for most things set in some time period or era where a race wasn't particularly present. The second one is just how it looks, we'll see how well casting Snape for the new Harry Potter goes as it seems to be Harry's father is bullying the weird black kid. Another one is the Artemis Fowl movie which cases a woman as leader for the…

    Hot take: Of these 2 hated book-to-film adaptations from 2020 (both based on books I’ve never read), Artemis Fowl isn’t the worst one, at least it has a good soundtrack & is shorter. TLDoAC has no redeeming qualities, is almost 3 hours long & physically hurts to watch. [ #Filmsky, #Booksky ]

    Stitch misses the mark with making Jumba the villain about as hard as the Artemis Fowl movie making Julius Root a woman (In the books it's kind of the point that Holly is the first female L.E.P. agent and she feels like she needs to prove herself to make her colleagues take her seriously)
