I just want to say as the OG Artemis Fowl poster(that somehow got 4 maxed out AF generals on /v/ in one night) from years back that nobody remembers; that I couldn't be more happy or proud of this new movement. Here's hoping they wisen up and make the movie animated and only the first book now that there's some small traction on that front.

Apparently she was being considered for Holly a while back. How do you think she'd do? It triggered tumblr on account of Holly having 'nut brown' skin and the only acceptable fancasting for her are black women

>>85059915
Man, I would have loved to be there for that. Did it get archive anywhere?

>>85059993
They can always use make-up/CGI to give her some exotic skin color. I'm more concerned by Holly's canonical height.

>>85060121
they'll probably do the same thing they did for the dwarves in the hobbit and LOTR movies, but I hope they don't use CGI for a proper skin colour cause fuck heads on tumblr would chuck a wobbly even though shes a goddamn magical elf

I now just want a Airman comic. I kind of preferred it to anything past book 5 of Artemis Fowl.

>>85055040
That's where you re introduce Minerva and have her team up with Opal, as her much less evil human benefactor.

>>85060708
Same, but I hope they get a different artist. This artist is okay for the weird fairy stuff, but I would prefer a more grounded art style for Airman.

>>85060876
Pls no. Minerva was boring and Opal coming back yet again would be Naraku tier bullshit.

>>85061056
I think he meant directly after book 5.

Having Minerva would have been a decent way to anchor the series and stop it from ridiculously escalating the way it did.
Though given her arc in 5 was how she learned the hard way why you don't go in over your head just because you're smart, I'd agree that having her as a sidekick to Opal would be a bit daft

despite the books saying otherwise, I always assumed Butler was black, and his sister was Latina. The comic threw me for a loop.

>>85061341

The Opal Deception's graphic novel didn't really do the book justice since it deals with emotions more and the comic just didn't get enough in depth to do it justice, but the rest of the series would be perfect for graphic novels.
I doubt we'll ever see them.

>>85061488
...yes.

>>85055186
Wonder how they are going to handle Holly/Artemis. A sizable part of the fanbase/consumers were buoyed by their like of the pairing. You can't put shota in a big Hollywod production. Even in the books it was pretty weird, but at least it was more easily excused. In another thread someone wrote of their dislike for the ship and why Artemis was hard to cast, in short: 'realistically Artemis is a creep that kidnaps a woman and keeps her locked up for ransom and yet later on they're sweet on each other'. Its much easier to excuse/suspend your disbelief if he's just a tot but if you age him up to make the pairing less weird the scenario of the first book is creepier and the pairing is still weird, albeit with more emphasis on Stockholm syndrome instead of shota.

>>85061924
Unless they let us into Artemis' head to show that he does feel guilt about doing that, there will probably be issues. Of course, doing that is harder in a movie than it is in a book without narration.

>>85058607
>>85058664
I'd prefer an animated film over an animated series or live-action movie.

Regardless: Can anyone link the past storytimes? I'll draw some Holly in return.

>>85061924
Even in the books, Artemis and Butler are slightly disturbed by the kidnapping.
All they really need to do is have a concrete scene over it and combine it with the final scene where they swear not to do anything like it again

Thank you so much kind anons, what kind of Holly would you like to see? Holly from the Graphic novels or closer to the description in the book?

Is it ever said what her uniforms look like?

>>85062102
I think that can be solved with liberal applications of butler as the father figure.

Firstly they'd have to show audience Artemis is doing all this to find his father and then have sprinkles of dialogue with butler to show their apprehensions and occasional guilt of what they're committing.

>>85061924
But it's the entire point of Artemis' character development. Tween or teen, he starts off as a loner and a creep, gradually gains friends and becomes a better person, which eventually wins him Holly's affection. There's no Stockholm syndrome involved. I don't see why this can't work with a competent writer and director.

>In another thread someone wrote of their dislike for the ship and why Artemis was hard to cast, in short: 'realistically Artemis is a creep that kidnaps a woman and keeps her locked up for ransom and yet later on they're sweet on each other'.

It was more about how hard it would be to make the series a movie for kids.

>I'd be suprised if the film adaptation ever goes through. Even if everyone ignores the stockholm syndrome and straight shota subtext, it's still a children's book that does a lot of things children's movies aren't allowed to do.

>Artemis Fowl is a story about a bad guy, and the story ends with him winning. He's not some cuddly Wreck-It-Ralph villain either. He's a guy who kidnaps a woman, chains her in his basement, and has no qualms about lying to her to fuck with her head. He's pitiable, has some standards, and has occasional bouts of humanity, but any actor who plays the character right would be Alex DeLarge levels of creepy. Even in the third book he's more of an antiheroic enemy mine than a good guy.

>The pacing could translate into a movie, even if some of the internal/external character contrasts couldn't be portrayed. The big problem is that filmmakers don't have the same freedom as authors.

>>85063098
Didn't the Harry Potter book adaptations at some point go pg-13?

>>85063241
Starting from the Goblet of Fire, yes. Half-Blood Prince and the first three were rated PG though.

>>85061135
This is more what I meant, tho I guess you are right, for this to work you'd have to fudge Minerva character development, which I honestly find ok since this way the series can last longer and we can have the best of both worlds, with Minerva taking the place of old Artemis, and good Artemis now having a foil he can play off.

Add some understated love triangle between Minerva, Holly, and Artemis, and you have yourself a much better story than what we got, that can go on longer and have a satisfying ending.

>>85061924
I think I was the one who wrote the post your talking about. >>84941096

It disregarded the Stockholm/ss issues and focused on how Artemis Fowl (the book) does a lot of things a children's movie wouldn't allow.

The protagonist is genuinely creepy, and his actions are even more alienating coming from a child than an adult. He's not a noble thief or a heroic rebel--he commits only one good deed in the book and even Holly questions if he was really being selfless there.

You could make a movie where you round off the harsh edges and make him into a Robin Hood, but they you'd have just another by-the-numbers boy genius story.

>>85063914
>where you round off the harsh edges and make him into a Robin Hood
How do you do that with the kidnapping/hostage/ransom though?
Skip it and go straight to the Father rescue?

>>85064019
But then the question is how do the fairies get involved.

>>85064745
Artemis discovers fairies and blackmails them into helping him save his father. Amoral but better than before, I guess.

>>85064918
And somehow they end up going against Opal and Cudgeon still, right?

>>85057766
what did this actually say?

>>85065281

>>85065308
Artemis asks Butler to turn off the set of tvs playing the news in his office. Butler is shocked because the tvs haven't been off for over a yaer because that's where Artemis was expecting to hear news about his missing father.

The core problem is motivation. Artemis justifies his actions by saying that he needs the money to find his father, but there are many less involved methods for someone with Artemis' skills to acquire 40-50 million dollars.

In the book, he gambles the lives of his friends and commits the crime of the millennium because it's the only thing left for him to do to feel thrill or feed his ego. A movie would need to change this to a generic "save the world", and that's a much less interesting motivation.

Sounds neat.

>>85066995
The kidnapping only got social services off his back because he healed his mother, and that wasn't part of the original ransom plan.

It's also probably easier to fool a few social services bureaucrats for a few months than an elite police squad fielded by an elder race capable of flying, turning invisible, stopping time, and hacking any human device.

Why would a movie NEED to make Artemis a good-intentioned character to work? There are other ways of making a character likeable and entertaining than making them heroic.

>>85068064
Oh. That was you? Sweet. Thanks for the recommendation, Anon. I have been checking out their other stuff. And yeah, they are pretty good.

>>85068265
Just from the images Google is giving me, he looks like he could be a good Artemis. But he's getting older fast...

>>85068300
too sexy imo

>>85068709
>>85068300
The armor / clothing is way too heavy on fan service, but I wouldn't mind her having that face or hairstyles in the movie. Maybe some darker skin...

The wardrobe spread on the left is pretty damn good though. Wish the artist had gone with #4 in the top row for a final design. It's a form-fitting uniform for Frond's sake.

Exposing so much skin to make it sexy isn't just unnecessary. It's BLASPHEMY.

>>85068573
>But he's getting older fast
True. Gotham Season 1 David could have done well, but by now, he's already sprouted up.

>>85068300
If anything it makes me realize how much I like the jumpsuit from the comic. The jumpsuit is utilitarian while still being titillating while this is a weird combination of boob window, space marine paulderons, shorts, and thigh boots.

>>85068554
Yes, but not in a children/young adults's movie. You'd either need to sell the idea of a children's movie with a reprehensible character or an adult's movie with a fairies and a 12 year old protagonist.

>>85069705

>>85067719
You know, if you did a movie and wanted it to be slightly more heroic, all you'd have to do was imply at the end that the whole point of the plan was to pay for a healing.

Artemis is easy to sympathize with anyone for the simple reason that he's punching up instead of down.

>>85070018
Or have Holly be the protagonist.

That's what the fairies did in the book's version of the movies that Haven made.

>>85048794

There's a difference between "punching above your weight" and "punching up". Artemis is a child born into massive wealth who could be using his plothax intellect to cure cancer but is instead using it to fuck with LEOs putting their lives on the line for the sake of others.

>>85070520

Well, she's Irish for a start, and Colfer loves Ireland.

>>85070523
Even the second film would go a long way towards humanizing him, which was always the point of the first 3 novels.

The rub lies in getting audiences to come back for that redemption arc. The 'A Series of Unfortunate Events' merged a bunch of the books together, but that probably wouldn't work in this case...

The only solution I can really think of is throwing in a ton of original content. Sell him as a young Snape with hidden depths. Maybe even format it as something of a Haven 'documentary', with the film itself being a fancy super-CGI reenactment. That would open the door for all kinds of fun shit.

That's the mistake most writers make i think. A character can change but too drastic a change ruins the initial appeal. Now imagining an Artemis that stays 'villain' and uses his vast empire to begin plotting to bring the fairy world to light and manipulating governments for that shit. Go big or go home.

>>85071384

Be honest, were the Eco-terrorists storyline any better?

>>85071849
It just takes finesse to not be an asshole. I believe Sherlock Holmes made being an asshole popular.

>>85071384
Good storytelling doesn't involve constant escalation. It's better to write based on motivations than on whether a character is a hero or villain.

Artemis is a character who likes taking challenges and making people admit he's smarter than them, even when those challenges are to amoral ends and involve putting his friends in danger. Books 1 and 3 feel really natural because of this.

>>85072021
>Be honest, were the Eco-terrorists storyline any better?

At least they were more consistent with Artemis having standards thing, stuff that was established in the first book. Like the not selling his camouflage patents to military companies thing. He doesn't have a desire to aid in wars and stuff.

i'm really sorry this took so long, did not realize how much trouble i would have getting the tablet to work with my drawing programs. it is so much easier to draw but the programs are not designed with consumer grade tablets in mind, the schizophrenic palm rejection was infuriating. here is a small holly/artemis in consolation as i keep tweaking my settings.

>>85074152
That's pretty cute, Anon.

>>85074289
Thanks, I was getting super frustrated so I decided I'd go with some cute shipping stuff that people asked for.

If you're curios I'm using a Surface Pro 3 and tried to use Artrage (which I love for sketching), Sai and Sketchbook Pro. Artrage kept crashing and Sai plain does not work with the tablet (it keeps randomly selecting tools and functions I don't want), which sucks because I get the best brush strokes from it. Sketchbook has the best UI but unfortunately doesn't support variable line-width or brush density with pen pressure (seriously why the fuck not?). I finished it with Sketchbook because the program is ridiculously stable, if very limited.

>>85074152
cute!

Attention Artemis Fowl shippers:

>>85075989
Sorry the settings are giving you such a rough time, Drawfriend. But nice to see you're doing pretty well despite that.

>>85076129
Thanks, it might just be easier to draw with gloves and try to set up a dual monitor scenario. My main issue thus far is that Sai (of which I like best for sketching after Artrage) is ridiculously sensitive. If I waggle the pen too much it thinks I'm clicking on other things so suddenly it's opening up menus and submenus and shit.

Would be neat to get a couple other drawbros in here. Maybe I'll do more tomorrow, if in pencil.

These threads have been entertaining as fuck. Inspired me to draw Holly.

>>85076819
Yay, more drawfriends, that's a very cute Holly.

Too bad there aren't any more GNs, this may be our last AF thread in a while

>>85075989
Isn't her hair like, auburn? Or I've been using that word wrong the whole time...

>>85076862
auburn is reddish brown

These threads retriggered my latent Shortstack fetish again.

>>85076862
auburn is orange-brown

>>85076946
Does Holly even count for that?

>>85076955
She is short, but I can't imagine her being stacked. Probably petite, that'd be more aerodynamic.

>>85076819
Good work, Drawbro.

>>85076819
I like the nose. Everyone forgets that Holly has a sort of button nose in the books.

>>85063098
Y'know, I just reread the first book and I honesly don't see the straight shota stuff.

>>85077662
People forget that it was mostly the later books that got that particular ball rolling.
They tend to make hindsight based inferences

God damn this is the book series that got my into shipping

>>85047615

The later books were fanfic-y enough, so no thanks.

>>85076990
Yes, that would make the most sense.

Do you know what I would like to see? An Artemis Cartoon Show. A high budget show which had a similar style to the comics.

I mean, as much as I enjoy the old books, I think that ultimately, the character of Artemis was helped greatly by his internal struggles. Something that the comics could ultimately not do.

Hell, it would give a chance to reintroduce the characters in a way which is true to the original but at the same time, not completely stale. I actually think in some cases, it might help characters like Opal gain more depth while at the same time, retaining the original idea behind her. You could have her interacting with her companions, hell, the rivalry that she had with Artemis could become even better than it originally was. Because ultimately animation is a visual medium and because of that, you could have scenes which show how similar they were to those clever enough to pick up on it.

Seriously, a show like this could be great. Get someone like Greg Weissman in charge of directing and hiring the writers of the show (Hopefully managing to get someone like Neil Gaiman), ensure that it can continue beyond two seasons, get Colfer as consultant writer and I think you'd be set.

>>85077930
It shouldn't be called shipping if the books themselves are setting the two up.

Also, even though fairies watch our TV and movies, they're still incredibly long-lived and mature (mentally and sexually) at earlier ages than us. It's partly why it was so easy for Julius, Holly and Foaly to treat Arty as the criminal adult he wanted to act like. Foaly actually had to underscore just how unique he was to Root during the first book.
>Foaly: "He's twelve, sir. That's YOUNG, even for a mud man."

>>Foaly: "He's twelve, sir. That's YOUNG, even for a mud man."
Huh.That actually explains a lot. Like how Holly is like a fifth towards barely middle aged but is fully employed and indepedent.

>>85082907
a fifth of the way towards barely middle age*

>>85082907
>>85083951

Also says a lot about how Holly is by far and away the youngest named fairy in the series. Aside from Number One, at least.

>>85080449
I think the best angle would be a series that starts off as a preque and then segues into the first book halfway through

It would be nice seeing Artemis in his true, unfettered, dickass, underaged genius role when he's amassing his resources and recouping his father's losses, and seeing more of the underground world would be nice.

>>85063098
this is why AF is unfilmable essentially

its an adult story told through the lens of YA Fiction

>>85086375
Is it really that adult when it's a story about a bad guy who becomes a better person through the power of friendship?

>>85086603
More like through the power of elf booty.

>>85086653
They were friends before he noticed the booty, to be fair.

>>85086375
No, it's still a children's story about a 12yo making friends. A novel just allows more freedom than a live-action movie. In terms of author liberty, prose > comics > cartoons > live action. Each level must be safer because it has a larger production staff, larger audience, and anything depicted becomes more graphic.

It's true for normal adaptations as well. American Psycho cut a number of the more graphic scenes from the book.

>>85086653
It's probably worth noting that his growth into being less of an asshole took a sharp rise when he hit puberty.

There used to be, it was a very popular book series

>>85098214
You make a strong argument.

>>85098420
Seems to have fallen to the wayside in comparison to others though. Wonder why.

>>85098978
Age

>>85098978
Because it never got a movie.

>>85098978
The author slowed down writing, didn't capitalize and score movie deals for production. So while it was popular, it didn't sprout roots like Harry Potter or Eragon did.

>>85100178
Hilariously Eragon was so bad they didn't even bother, then they saw what a mess the second book became and how the third turned out and were probably relieved that they didn't have to make movies for those shitfests.

>>85100178
The only best part of the Eragon movie was the Avril Lavigne theme song. So, yeah...

>>85100239
>>85100368

I agree, the movie was trash but even GETTING a movie increases exposure and popularity. At the very least I'd take a bet you'd find more people who knew about Eragon then Artemis Fowl.

>>85100413
True. But Eragon had the whole written by a teenager and being hilariously bad gimmicks going for it. Those certainly didn't hurt.

>>85098978
Our childhood was after the Harry Potter books started a boom in YA novels but before the Harry Potter movies started a gold rush for the next big YA movie. Now we live in a time where YA novels are written solely to be optioned as films as the next Harry Potter/Hunger Games.

>>85100368
I thought the red-head was hot as fuck. But Eragon's elves are retarded Tolkien ripoffs so everything else was garbage. The only interesting characters were the dwarves and they only got focus on their fucking heritage, not as actual characters.

>Goblins
>Appreciating anything not green or scaly

>>85082360
That really changes things.

>>85103355
Yeah, it makes it seem like she's not much older at all...

>>85103529
Now why would the author go and do a thing like that, I wonder?

>>85103529
Colfer you magnificent bastard, if only he had kept this type of quality throughout.

>>85103655
Because Holly is in the elven equivalent of her early 20s, while artemis around the time in the series where the shipping picks up, is around 13-16. Which is not as bad as one would initially think, except that while for a human the difference between 16 and 20 is big, for an elf because of their lifespan there really isn't much. Henceforth the only thing actually stopping Holly from jumping on Artemis bones is not his age, but her self control and the fact that he is human, which kinda flies out of the window at the end.

>>85103529
What? Holly is definitely supposed to be a young adult, however it does better explain why she can respect Artemis on a less childish level since fairies are already adult by the age of 12.

>>85100239
>Eragon
The first book is one of my most beloved pieces of media ever. Yes, it wasn't anything crazy, yes, it was basically a mashing together rip-off of Star Wars and Lord of the Rings, but looking back I think it was a near perfect execution of 'The Hero's Journey'. The relationship between the boy and the dragon was perfect too.

Then the second book hit. I think it was one of the first things I realized as being 'shit'. I could ramble on about everything that went wrong, but this is an Artemis Fowl thread.

>>85104389
Hey, remember the time Elf Bitch told Eragon her pussy wasn't wet even though he turned himself into an elf mutant to appear more attractive and cried like a little bitch?

>>85061502
Yeah, I can see that. I just finished it, and there were a lot of emotional points I really think would have been better in words.

>>85077821
As someone who stopped after the 3rd book, I never even imagined that Holly and Artemis would be shipped. If anything, I would have pegged Artemis and Butler's sister. Or Holly and Butler's sister if you're on /u.

>>85105361
That got teased for about ten seconds, and He and Minerva got teased for about twenty seconds, but Opal Deception is where it really starts.

>>85097817

>>85104559
>Get nasty scar at the end of the first book
>"Oh man, the adventures only going to get harder from here on out. I can't wait to see him overcoming this and growing as a character"

Fuck you Palawano. It was even worse when he get to Not-Rivendale and all the elves fucking hated him for being a human, then loved him when he became a half-elf. I wanted him to train super hard and kick their fucking asses and wipe that smugness from their entire race.

>>85105421
>but Opal Deception is where it really starts.
Just finished the comic and yeah, I can kind of see that.

>>85105421
Yeah, and Minerva gets overshadowed hard to the shipping department in the last act of the only book she's even in.

>>85105421
In the book Minerva gets introduced in, Holly and Artemis

1. Travel through a wormhole and merge their physical beings for a moment, switching eyes in the process.
2.Holly dies and a distraught Artemis tells time to fuck off in order to save her from a demon-cursed sword.

I wish Minerva got her series

>>85115017
Centaurs are pretty big, being a human torso on a horse. The comic is pretty bad about sizes.

>>85115152
I always got the impression that they were a deal smaller, given that (if I remember right) they were never described as towering over the fairies.

>>85115894
Yeah, I always thought they were bigger than pretty much all the other fairies, but not like a full horse size. Then again, there are a lot of different horse breeds.

No, THIS is Butler's face when
He's a big guy

>>85121323
>Butler trying to read a book and guard the door and ignoring every outburst coming from behind it.

>>85121600
Given his taste in literature, that would be probably be doubly awkward.

>Artemis ends up setting up a schedule for these things
>Still feels embarrassed giving it to Butler because he's basically his father
>Still considers it a better option than being walked in on

Give me more reaction images Edit anon-kun! I'll suck yo dick, mayne

>It's a full moon, Holly and Artemis are in full swing.
>Butler is trying to block out said swing with the latest work of Violet Tsirblu, while still guarding the couple from the family/manic pixies/trolls
>His growing horror when the lines he reading began to suspiciously match up to the dialogue happening behind the ancient oak door to Artemis's bedroom.

well maybe that would stop Opal from being crazy

>>85121600
Which one is worse? "Criminal scum is handcuffed and physically punished by stern authority figure for being a bad boy" or "Delicate fairy is kidnapped by filthy mud man evil genius and gradually mindbroken to love hot monkey dick"?

>>85121918
When they are older do they reenact Holly's kidnapping

>>85121876
Did anyone else get the impression from the second comic that Opal's main beef with Foley was not getting the D?

I fucking love this place.

>>85121970
Oh yeah, it was obvious she was thirsty for that horse cock. There was too much fury in her to have just been slighted by him.

>>85121918

They re-enact the kidnapping every night. Except with a little bit of detail change each time.

Butler wishes they would get new material, but they NEVER get bored of it.

Wouldn't Artemis still be guilty about that?

>>85122095

Oh he is.

But Holly is very persistent.

>>85121876
She rounded her ears in an attempt to become human, you can't stop that kind of crazy with simply Artemis fucking her

>>85122095
Considering his last will and testament has him leaving Holly the amount of gold equivalent to her ransom and him saying how he can never make up for the crime but hoping she can still think of him as a friend when she thinks of him, yes. Probably why they have the cop punishing the bad boy roleplays like that one Anon said. >>85121918

>>85122095
Yes, which makes being handcuffed to a chair and "interrogated" that much more cathartic.

>>85122179
Oh I thought Artemis wanted the latter and Holly the former but now I realize it is reversed

He's a busy man, and that would be the perfect guilt trip to get him distracted.

>>85076487
Opal is doubly dead

>>85121970
I honestly don't think she's emotionally mature enough to grasp those concepts.

Maybe subconsciously.

Sick quints. And yeah, it's kind of a running joke that Artemis likes it when fairies, especially Holly. smack him around.

>>85122389
That too.

So is the last book the weakest

>>85122577
That is the face is just perfect

>>85122605
The last three are generally all a step down from each other, overall.

The previous five can be argued about

Well I just read a fanfic that ended with human holly and Artemis committing double suicide so that was nice
