Regardless of quality, I find it fascinating that they apparently made Artemis Fowl an unambigiously good guy.

I mean, the main thing that makes Artemis Fowl unique among YA literature is that even though he's the protagonist, he's a criminal mastermind who spends a lot of time doing clearly bad, criminal things for selfish reasons.

It's kind of like making a Harry Potter movie but Harry is not a wizard, or a Hunger Games movies but Katniss isn't one of the district champions.
