      @@mist4255 The Oculus and Opal and his dad's kidnapping and so forth? Nope. He simply wanted his already-rich family to be UBER-billionaires once more after his dad disappeared, so he kidnapped Holly in order to demand a ransom of fairy gold. That's his motivation, in full. No "I'm only doing this because a bad person forces me to!" excuses. Just wanting money. Which is kind of refreshing in a child character, because normally people can't bring themselves to write children as villains.

    One thing that I find just completely, horribly hilarious is that they made the Butlers black and Root a woman (which just completely threw his whole character arc out the window, as well as the real adversity Holly faced as the only female LEPrecon officer) for diversity points, and then they whitewashed Holly, who is *canonically* dark-skinned. If I didn't know any better, I'd have thought Disney made this movie just to troll AF fans.

    I was already cautious when they showed the trailer. Butler was of wrong ethnicity, and he had a good reason behind his race in the book, and Commander Root's gender was swapped as well. His gender ALSO had a good reason in the book. Switching them up actually ruins their entire character arc throughout the Artemis Fowl books.
    I read the books when I was in sixth grade. Don't let this horrible movie discourage you from reading the series. It gets deep into different Mythologies, especially in the UK. A beautiful worldbuilding that anyone can vividly imagine. A system where magic is not unlimited and has a time to refill said magic, and much much more.
    As an Artemis Fowl book fan, let me say that this movie just got Shyamalan'd.

    It’s actually kinda funny, the josh gad mouth scene is one of the more accurate parts, they just absolutely ruined it by completely ignoring any of the other context. Mulch is supposed to be a nasty gross little creature and you’re told about how dwarves “dig” early on. In a better version of this movie you’d actually learn how dwarves work, Mulch would be a gross CGI fantasy creature the whole time, and this scene wouldn’t be remotely as jarring because it wouldn’t be all uncanny valley and it would be perfectly in line with the foreshadowed information about dwarves and the inherent grossness of the character

      Also, only first first book is good. And he is a huge jackass in it, but he was actually a villian in that book, unlike the rest. From the second book and onward he became a good guy, which went completely against his character. Then by the fourth or fifth book (Honestly any book, after book 1 is hard to remember) the writer forgets that he was a villain entirely, and gets rid of what little 'bad boy' vibe they were trying to attempt (and failing every time they attempted, after book 1)

    For everyone wondering: the real plot of the film
    Artemis fowl is a criminal mastermind working around the underworld to make up for the absence of his father, who was captured by the mafia when he tried to intrude on their market. His mother slowly went mad when his father disappeared, but Artemis didn’t want anyone to know In case they took him away. His family used to have a fortune but his dad had invested it all. Artemis had heard rumors of fairies- and that they were rich.
    He found one that gave him their sacred text. He managed to translate it, and it told him that they had a fund to pay back for any human captured. It told him they could erase memories, and that they could stop time. It also told him that they had magic that they needed to be recharged by planting an acorn in the ground in a specific place. It also told him fairies couldn’t enter a house uninvited without losing their magic (stealing is a no no.).
    He managed to capture a fairy when she was trying to restore her powers (holly), and took her back to the mansion with Butler. The fairy police contacted him and negotiated. He said he wanted x amount of gold. They refused, and out the whole place under a time shield. Then, mulch, a dwarf (Josh gad in this movie) is shown in prison. He was with his species mortal enemy and managed to outsmart them. The police force recruited him, as he could break and enter. He managed to get in, and found out that Artemis had a copy of their sacred text. He told the police force, and then faked his own death so he could escape.
    Holly had managed to take an acorn with her, and managed to plant it. Now she had her powers back.Artemis was still her captor and they hated each other, The police force was tired of negotiating, so they sent in a troll. The troll almost killed Butler but Butler managed to be saved by Holly the fairy. Holly may have hated Artemis, but was neutral with Butler. Now back to full health, Butler incapacitated the troll.
    The police threaten to basically release a nuclear bomb on the place, but Artemis says that if they do they will kill Holly. Essentially he says- send in the gold and I’ll release her. Then nuke the place but I’ll still survive haha. They say “ok sure! Let’s do that!”. They send in the gold. Then Artemis, for the first time acting like a normal boy asks Holly to heal his mother in exchange for half the gold. She accepts. Then she goes out with half the gold, and they nuke the place (the nuke wouldn’t actually destroy anything except life).
    I forgot to mention that the time field won’t let anyone go to sleep if they were awake. It won’t let anyone wake up if they were asleep. So Artemis drugs all of them, so they escape the limits of the time field and go to the future when the nuke already happened. They all escaped unscathed with half the gold. Mulch runs off with the other half by stealing it. That’s the end of the first book.
    The second book is where they rescue his father, and start working together.

    Holly's character is made less interesting by changing Commander Root to a female character. It basically shatters the fact that she worked hard to get into Lep-Recon, despite the apparent sexist nature of the underground society, and is trying to prove that she can handle the tasks at hand.

    The worst thing about this movie, in my opinion, is the fact that it completely strays from the plot line of the books. They also go against everything that was setup in the book. One example is that in this movie, the time stop is apparently just portable, but in the books, it was high-tech, advanced technology. It seems like the writers read an online summary of the book, and then did the rest themselves.

      As someone who read the entire series, I seriously didn't think Disney could fuck a movie up for it this bad. There is an unbelievable amount of things wrong with movie. The plot and sub-plots, all of the main characters personality and traits, the dialogue.....almost everything they fucked up. The books on the other hand are so well written and the stories are interesting. Complex and yet still simple to understand. Multiple unexpected twists in a couple books. A great book series, highly recommend at least reading the first one.

    For those who haven’t read the first book I’ll do a quick summary of it. The movie is actually somewhat like the book. Ok so the book starts with Artemis meeting a information dealer with butler. The man tells Artemis where he can find a real drunken fairy. Artemis has been studying fairy’s for a while now (you find out why at the end of the 6th book) and has decided to meet up with someone who has information. Artemis meets the drunken fairy and bribes the fairy into giving him her fairy book (the fairy book is basically the fairy bible that explains everything about fairy’s) Artemis takes the fairy book home but it’s in the fairy language so Artemis literally spends hours on his computer cracking the fairy alphabet. After Artemis does this, Artemis somehow memorizes the fairy language and becomes the first human to understand gnomish. Artemis has been after money ever since his father disappeared and he reads that if he captures a fairy there is a high return reward. Artemis also reads about the ritual that fairies go through every so often to replenish their magic. Fairies do these rituals at certain trees so Artemis goes and camps out at certain tree sites for months waiting for a fairy. One day holly short shows up and starts to perform her ritual. Artemis captures her and keeps her in his house since fairies can’t use magic unless invited into the house. Much like in the movie the fairies try multiple methods to free holly but Artemis plans for everything. Eventually the fairies plan to give Artemis the gold, but after they give him the gold they would bomb fowl manner and take the gold back but even Artemis prepares for this. Before Artemis returns holly to the fairy people however he gives half his gold to holly and asks her for a wish. Artemis wishes for his mother to be cured of her illness which has been driving her insane ever since his father disappeared. Holly agrees and takes half the gold. Artemis then evades the bomb and the first story ends there since as written in the books, once fairies give someone gold, they cannot take back the gold while that person is alive.
