#also what’s the point of making Juliet younger and butler niece instead of sister? just to give him a friend? arty dosent get friends yet

A bit of a rant:

I avoided watching Artemis Fowl after seeing the trailer cause it looked silly which really wasn’t the vibe of the books.

I’m cooking and thought why not…..my original decision was correct.

Talk about in name only. They changed the whole story. And worst of all they changed the main character(s) so much they may as well have just given everything other names and made something new.

Where’s my insufferable evil genius?

Rant done but I needed to shout into the wind to get it out (only 30 minutes in and so many feelings)

(This probably only matters to me right now but still!)
