Great book with an AWSOME sense of humor, expecially the third one. Its one of the only books that made me laugh out loud!

Anywho, I belive there is a new book out. I think its called Artimis Fowl, the Collector's Guide. I think its a bunch of short afterward stories and interviews.

It's coming in May 2005 according to Barnes & Nobles.com.

I think I might see about getting book 4 later today.

EDIT: Say, wasn't there going to be a movie of book one? I seem to remember them running a contest for that. Something about translating the fairy words printed throughout book one.

omg, the artemis fowl series has been one of my absolute favorites. its funny, imaginative, and just overall an absolutely awsome series!! i really cannot wait until the next book comes out.. it sounds really awsome opal, artimis, and everyone else! yay!

ps: yeah they were going to make a movie on the first book, in fact i decoded the fairy code as soon as i got the book (im good a puzzles) anyway when i went to the website it had some troll game instead! how irratating. i heard that the budget wasnt big enough to cover the movie...dunno if its true or not though. ^_^

*Dances* Yes! I knew there was too much to the ending to end there! Now, to wait until the Library gets it... (500 years later) Still waiting... :P

They are doing a movie? They better do it well, this will be one of the harder ones to do, I think.

The only thing wrong with these book is they are too dang short. I picked up The Artemis Fowl Files yesterday and I finished it in under a day.

The big screen adaptation of the Harry Potter rivalling Artemis Fowl has been postponed. The movie was being developed with a summer filming schedule of this summer having already been inked in. The reason? Exchange Rates. The movie was going to be filmed in Ireland this summer, but because the Euro to the Dollar has changed by nearly 20% in value it's caused production costs to soar. No word yet if Miramax are planning on taking the production to another country. But this must be a hammer blow to the Irish film community. This is not the only production thought to have pulled out of filming in Ireland this summer with several other major productions either contemplating pulling out or have pulled out already.


There ya go. Durn. I was really looking forward to the movie... I wonder who'll play Artemis.

They'll probably just do the same thing they did with the hobbits in LotR with the tricksy cameras and crud...

Yes... with all the stuff they can do nowadays, they can have a 6 and a half foot person look like their an inch tall... Its amazing.

And Tom Felton? Wait a sec while I think what movies hes been in. Then I'll probably agree with you. ;)

Tom felton plays draco malfoy in harry potter, i must agree with everyone else, he would be perfect, he would need to dye his hair tho, artimis's hair is black.
and if they do make a movie, i hope they do not leave too many things out like in harry potter
harry potter has green eyes...GREEN!!!
