  • could not stop laughing at his expression at 1:49!

  • Comment removed

  • "Interesting" interpretations of Artemis aside, the book itself was good.

    I felt that it was a little darker than what we usually see from Colfer. But maybe that was just me?

    I do wish we could have seen Orion a bit more, and it would have been extremely interesting to see some of Artemis' recovery...

  • i want the song after 0:57!!! plzzzzzzz <3

  • Moonlight Sonata, unauthorized access? One; I feel safe in the asumption that Artemis would have some snide remark to make about Mozart period, and two; nothing goes on near Fowl manor that he doesn't know about. This is the kid who had an interpol file by the time he was 12. Cut the cutsie act Colfer!

  • This is NOT Artemis Fowl. He doesn't even have an Irish accent!

    Why have you lied to me?! WHY?!

  • artemis is sexy and irish with mismatched eyes... IT'S ALL WRONG!!!

  • Hes eye colours should be brown and blue :F

  • I thought Artemis was Irish

  • NO NO NO!! This is NOT MY ARTY!

  • When I read the book, I didn't get the feeling that the 'heroes' had any epic choice to make as such, as Eoin claims in this. More just accidents. And he hasn't really been a criminal mastermind since, like, the third book or whatever anyway.

  • @LolietaDoll sorry for my english :P

  • wheres the irish accent?

  • He kind of looks like a young Quentin Tarantino.....

  • so funny when orion(other artemis)call s foaly a noble steed

  • He looks too old, His hair isn't right, He's smiling (what's up with that? I thought he was supposed to have a permanent scowl when he isn't grinning like an evil mastermind with a devious plan), His eyes aren't blue, The accent is too thick, His face isn't right and I didn't think he always wore such plain suits (atleast have him wear a different color tie and maybe add some lines to the suit suit, you know what i mean by "lines").

  • @EssenseOfHorses thats not artemis. thats orion.

  • @Pwningtheowned omg it is ur so right

  • I think it's the Irish accent that ruins it.

    I know he is Irish, but you just can't sound evil in an Irish accent.

  • Well... That was, um, horrifying? Who was that wannabe Artemis?

  • "hi im orion"

    "im the nut im the nut im the nut"

    "U R NOT REAL"

    "4...4 means death"

    luv the artemis fowl series eva thumbs up if u agree

  • Excuse me, but while I find your critiques of Artemis's appearance to be extremely amusing, I'd like to say that IS the Mudboy in person so if you don't like it you can stick it in your wingrig and fly with it. Except you Mudmen don't have wingrigs, do you? - A Loyal Fan

    P.S. Yes, he is creepy. And hot. I can say this because a certain centaur does not know I know about Youtube, much less that I created an account.

  • why this novel not appear in my country...to long waiting..hate it.

  • @TheDanieldante its much better to read it in english, i had problems finding it in my country too, bought it online from amazon, came in like a month but it worths it :P

  • Find the perfect match 2 play Artemis jooo.. This doesn't fit at all. Pls find our Arty..

  • artemis is awesome

    artemis is super smart

    artemis doesnt like loolipops (:

    lol

  • BUT TAT'S NOT OUR LITTLE ARTY! ARTY IS WAY OTTER TAN TIS IMPOSTER!

  • When his hair is all messed up and he's smiling, it matches what I think Orion would look like(a more childish/less stoic version of Arty). But other than that, I don't really think the guy is the best representation of Artemis(the thinning hair is a recurring complaint xP).

  • BUT THAT'S NOT OUR ARTY

  • oh my god Eoin you little creep WE SEE YOU

  • What, is no one going to comment on Eoin Colfer's weird hijinks in the television screen behind Artemis when he is introducing the video?

  • @Glamglitzglitterlove I totally agree

  • I'm pretty sure if I were to find an actor for Artemis, I would do a better job. He's not pale, his hair isn't thick enough, or black enough, and I'm pretty sure he's not Artemis enough

  • Um, no. No, that's not Artemis. He's not that happy.

  • I dont think hes 12......

  • that is not Artemis Fowl Artemis Fowl is much cooler looking than this guy they need a new guy to be ARTEMIS FOWL!!!

  • whatsthe awnser?

  • Silly... silly... silly girls... always romanticizing characters. Orion is physically identical to Artemis. I actually think this kid is perfect for the part. I like him. I don't see the problem... and this is Artemis. Artemis Fowl II. Deal with it. If you really liked Artemis, then why wouldn't you like this version? He's just as attractive/sinister as we would want Arty to be.

  • @MrNonagone I meant, this is Orion/Artemis. Artemis' face, but Orion's personality methinks. Although, maybe Artemis would let us see in his manor now. I'm not sure.

  • Arty is much hotter than that guy

  • Does anyone know where this is? it looks a bit like kylemore abbey in ireland, but it isn't...

    besides, this guy can't be the REAL artemis, the real one will never show us into his house...

  • I wish they didn't change the covers of the books, now my bookshelf is mismatched, starting from the time paradox. The Atlantis Complex was a very disappointing book in itself.

  • I don't understand why they didn't cast the actual Artemis. I mean, sure he's fictional. Sure he doesn't actually exist. Sure it's easier to cast a real, living human being instead of a fictional character, but c'mon. That's no reason not to cast the REAL Artemis Fowl. :P

  • he's not even irish, thats pretty lazy casting....who'se orion?

  • @phorecite in the Atlantis Complex, Artemis gets some sort of multiple personality disorder. Orion is that other personality.

  • common thats not arty thats just some creepy ugly dude acting to be artemis which he looks more like orion instead i mean the artemis fowl i thought of was actually hot and for the first time after damon salvatore i liked a fictional character and thought maybe he would be hot

  • DX

    That young man is NOT Artemis Fowl!

    He's just creepy-looking (especially when he's trying to look "happy")

    Although I will admit that the manor is beautiful!

  • Is this eoin? Well i wanted to say that when i read the first book i was really hoping he would stay a criminal, and the villain of the book, but that didnt happen, did it? The first book was really misleading. I would like to read about artemis fowl when he was younger, like 7,8,9,10,11. You know, when he was STILL A CRIMINAL!!!!

  • Does anybody know what location they used as Fowl Manor?

  • that dude creeps me out

  • This is real!Atlantis Complex is real!its already out!

  • It looks only a TINY bit like Artemis,but the manor is just like i like it

  • that is so not artemis. for me, and by colfer's description...and the book covers and the graphic novels... this is so not him!!!

    he's.... not..... artemis!!!!

    i don't like that guy. he is not my artemis!!!! my cute criminal mastermind... my genius... artemis *screams* *tanrtrums* *fuming*

  • Artemis has a prominent widow peak....That dude doesn't have it..

  • that is the worst looking artemis fowl I have ever seen!

  • @EricaHofer  yes,BUt THIS IS A Real!,infact its alreday out!

  • oh colfer... you are way too underrated....

  • wow.... I think I just died inside.

    dude, this isn't right... this guys an impostor!

    Arty is meant to be hot man...

  • @TintinAdventurer

    Also he doesn't have mismatched eyes

  • i think artemis should be some young, and "better" looking guy, this guy is too.....well how do i put this........simple and different than i expected

  • American, English, Irish, his accent seems to jump between all three.

  • Hey, Arty :D! *pinches cheek* sorry my version of a fangirl moment :D.

  • Arty is much hotter than that dude..

  • @jnforever013 true dat

  • They need a different acter, or this dude needs to develop Atlantis Complex.

  • This can not be Artemis Fowl.

  • Looks nothing like what I expected

  • whats all this stuff about artemis not having the right eyes etc. ? Look at 2:00. The eye on the right is blue. The eye on the left is brown. Stop whining.

    And he's 15 by this stage right? So he's allowed to have zits. Sheesh.

    I just cant wait to see Butler :)

  • @mychemicalrelapse

    the reason why he has 2 different eyes is because he is part fairy part human

  • @megajimmystewart i know. but ppl were complaining that the actor in this video didnt have that. when he does if you look.

  • I kinda like this guy although i dont think he will be the actor for the real movie as he is too old, i think it would be very hard to find somebody to play Artemis Fowl though because we all have our own clear image of him and no one can really match that in real life

  • No accent, he should be shorter, and his voice should have NO emotion. He sounded hospitable, and in the first book Artemis couldn't care less about other people. This better not be the real actor.

  • I thought artemis would look more how you say. MATURE. For one this dude looks like he's posing for a icecream poster. SECOND he has a pimple. Third ,i pictured artemis with the eyes going to be red or maroon.

  • Who is this git?

  • Is good...just the movie will be made by disney :(

  • also.. this... guy.. says that eoin is right.. yet in the books it says "DISCLAIMER: Artemis belive eoin colfer is a mere fantasizing about his adventures" yet these people failed when this... "artemis" says it is real T_T

  • wooow if he is even thought to play artemis in a movie.. wow.. just wow.. he is NOT artemis fowl nor does he look like him T_T the only resemblance is the hair and the suit :/

  • Yeah I don't like this guy as Artemis. I hope he's never considered to play Artemis again. In my mind just looking at Artemis you could see wisdom in his eyes and mystery from his composure. It's like looking at him you wouldn't be able to figure him out seeing as he is a genius criminal mastermind.

    SN: AMAZING books! As always I enjoy reading Eoin's books :)

  • and furthermore QUIT COMPLAINING THAT HE'S NOT GOOD LOOKING. in the books it NEVER says anything about Artemis being attractive we all just imagined it because he has an attractive personality.

  • honestly im tired of people saying that this doesn't look like Arty. first, yes, u can see his mismatched eyes. second, i admit he looks a little old but it says in the 7th book that he looks older than he actually is because of stress and stuff. okay, ill admit taht he's not my exact version of Artemis, but he's pretty close. maybe he could be a little more criminal mastermindish.

  • @Vailjnovelist

    his eyes are mismatched because he is part fairy part human!

  • I think this guy is a little to tall, and his hair is too short. He's a little to old, too.

    But i dont think anybody in this wide world could be exactly the Artemis Fowl we all want (;

  • I think he could make an ok Artemis, but Artemis deep and intellegent look in the eyes is missing

  • Hello from Czech republic (between Germany and Poland - so I'm sorry for my english)! I'm a big big fan of this series! Love Artemis. This is absolutly amazing video (but I must say I'm little confused, in my mind seems Artemis a little bit diferent...) and the Fowl Manor is very nice ;) I'm waiting for film, I MUST see it ;) I have read this series a lot of time (maybe 10 or more?) and I look foward to Atlantis Complex in Czech :) Good job! GO ON!!!

  • umm, where's his amazing irish accent ?!

  • what is the piano tune playing in the background called?? My mother used to play that when I was a child

  • @mashallah31 Moonlight Sonta By Ludwig Beethoven. One of the most beautiful pieces of music.

  • ....heh.. eoin's playing with artemis at the beginning of the vid

  • @digigirl411 ooooo where did u see there's one more!!! i mean i figured there is since they didnt end the story in the 7th but im excited if it says when the 8th will come out!

  • You can see his mismatched eyes at 2:01

  • please tom kaulitz in the role of artemis fowl

  • DUDE it better not be that guy! He looks like a doofus!

  • UHm...DAAAAAAMMMOOONNNNNNNN

  • ...first this book was awesome and another thing...artemis fowl has bangs! Bangs! Because in the sixth book they mentioned him flipping his bangs numerous times...so he must have them...he doesnt have jelled back hair...so ha!..sorry out of hand..

  • @xxBleachTAPSxx but they went forward in time and his hair grew out because he aged a little bit in the time stream and then when they wentback he wentback to slicked back hair.

  • @AuroxAvox In all the other books it stated that he had hair in his eyes..if his hair was slicked back then it wouldnt become loose easliy..knowing Arty im sure he doesnt use small amounts

  • @xxBleachTAPSxx fine then short hair. either way Artemis with bangs wold be one weird picture. *shudders*

  • @AuroxAvox Well I do perfer him with bangs but its my opinion so I cant change another persons..

  • @xxBleachTAPSxx He always had his hair slicked back, he hated having his hair in front of his eyes because he would look like every other kid the only time he had his hair all over the place was when he went back in time with Holly.

  • @Crystil17 ...well thats true but I like my males with bangs...its a wierd thing

  • @xxBleachTAPSxx Meh it is your own preferable choice

  • omg they actually gave arty a colored contact lense! ROFL!

    i don't like this guy he is NOT arty-like at all.

  •  That guy is just not Artemis enough. I believe they can do better than that!

  • I think that this guy is alright... He could be better... But I would be happy with him lol...

    It took me FOREVER to notice his eyes!! I can't believe that!!!!!! XD

    And btw, this book, was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! MY FAVORITE OUT OF THE SERIES!!!

  • @TheCodman111 it's true. he may be a genius, but he's short, pale, and whimpy. no girl would want him that has a life. and if he's NOT pale, short, and whimpy, then why does he need butler all the dang time?

  • THAT'S NOT ARTY! IT'S ORION!

  • hmmmm Artemis looks like...Orion sorta

  • Actually the world isn't in danger it's just one section of the fairy country magig and why does the book lie he hasn't become nice his switched personality why do authors get far fetched towards the final books just like dan browns lost symbol far fetched to the end god we need another Tolkien

  • not enoph attitude

  • HEY! ARTEMIS FOWL IS SUPPOSED TO BE IRISH! AND THIS GUY IS FAKE AND FAKE AND FAKE AND FAIL!

    *sob sob sob* you people think you can imitate him...

  • id give a limb to be artemis in the movie

  • good guy to be Artemis, but only for this book, cause he gets soft

  • @afhplover he's a pale, nerdy, short wimpy freak! just cus he's a genius doesn't mean he's supossed to be smart.

  • Not much of Irish accent there, arty.

  • What is that THING on his right cheek?

  • I love how Eoin Colfer is supposedly Fowl's 'biographer'. God this series is awesome.

  • No offense to the guy, but they have to find someone better.

  • that isnt Artemis?!

    O.o

    Too old, too wierd, to wierd looking... not irish LOL

  • darnt it! when hesays will they leave him in his happy state "Artemis" has a happy face when he say turn him back in2 a criminal mastermind hes all thinkyy. at the end it shows him happy. i already guessed the answer but now...it seems determind.

  • Guys, look with more attention at the video and stop it at 0.47: he actually HAS one eye light blue and one hazel.

  • @IreneKirsh he does!!! thats crazy. I don't know how many times I've watched this and hadn't noticed that. Wow... I feel dumb :D and unobservant. Further proof that if Artemis ever met me (please read: real) he wouldn't like me. *sigh*

  • @Lunireal buahahaha, maybe he would like me XD

    I imagine the scene:

    -Hy, mr Fowl, my name is.... OMG, WHAT DID IT HAPPEN TO YOUR EYES?!-

    XD

  • @IreneKirsh But isn't his blue eye suppose to be darker?

  • @ZedcoProductions

    Ask Eoin, he choosed this guy, not me XD

  • He-ey! Orion here!!! Please don't tell Artemis I was here. Although, I suppose he can see what I'm doing anyway... Oh well! What can he do to stop me?

  • Orion!!!!!!! xD

  • not what i think he should sound like... or look like for that matter.

  • not what i imagined him looking like AT ALL

  • The guy is kinda cute, but honestly he looks like someone from the matrix.....not kidding....

  • "Fowl Manor" could be pronounced like "Foul Manure." 

  • Ludwig Van Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata-an interesting choice of song for this preview.

  • Comment removed

  • he called his manor a house? he apologized? he said love? he let strangers in and greeted them personally? no cold hearted genius? no butler? + his hair is longer and his eyes are meant to be one blue and one hazel not both brown they got it all wrong

  • Comment removed

  • i dont care what u guyz think. THIS DUDE IS TOTALLY HOT! HE IS LIKE MY EDWARD CULLEN!

    I <3 ARTY

  • Don't remind me of the sappy romantic. I hated Orion.

  • it took me 5 days to finish the book NNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! I DONT WANT IT TO END!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Who is that, impersonating Artemis Fowl?

  • I think that Artemis must look more noble and refined, this guy is too simple(

    I hope that he won`t take part in the real movie about Fowls adventures, if someone decide to create this (movie) =)

    Mr Colfer is magnificent as always! Thank you for new book!=)

  • @Clevturess: i totally agree.

  • this guy is so old...

    Artemis is suppose to be super pale with one hazel, one blue eye, and jet black hair....not dark brown. This guy doesn't look remotely evil or witty. He looks and acts more like a comedian if anything. =[

    And what's up with that tacky song at the end? O_o

    If Disney really has the books, they could and must do a lot better than that.

  • Cool video :)

    if you are going to write an 8th book... i wish, that mulch and julliet come together :)

    that would be soo cool :)

    and butler should have a girlfriend, too...

    aaww little butlers would be so...sweet...dangerous...sweet ^^

  • Artemis is so cute. :)

  • oh my God ok if you are a dedicated reader of Artemis Fowl then GET THIS BOOK.

    it will not dissapoint!!!!!!!

    its probably my second favorite book of the series, next to The Time Paradox

    i hope he makes an 8th soon!!!!!! (i didnt even know he was planning on a 7th lol)

  • hee hee he has a mole....

  • just read this book and very dissapointed

  • @1Flubbster You just made me very worried. I've been looking forward to this book for so long and is just about to order it off the Internet since I can't find it in any bookstore or library, but if it's gonna make me disappointed I might just not read it at all. Honestly, I'd rather live thinking Eoin can't fail.

  • @overalloverkill honestly read the reviews like on amazon and other sources! I love him aswell but he really has dissapointed me this time!

  • @overalloverkill

    Don't read it. I wish I hadn't....just finished it half an hour ago.

  • @loneronline i think the book was meant as more of a way to show how he's been affected by the disease so that the last book would have more of an impact on the readers and anyway- it was still a good book .

  • @loneronline

    Don't say that, I'm dying over here! I have to read it even if it ruins my life. But I'll keep in mind that it might not be that great.

  • they r so gonna take him back. they really should make a movie outta this! one series after another

  • NO BLUE EYES! BUT CLOSE! AND CUTE! AND AWSOM!!

  • lol, i love how eoin is peeking over artemis's shoulder on the screen behind him.

  • WHERE ARE THOSE GORGEOUS, HYPNOTIC MISMATCHED EYES???

    AND IS THAT A PIMPLE ON HIS CHEEK!!!!???

  • @TotallyTwilightFreak u can actually see that he has mix match eyes in the Complex Atlantis song video!! :D Orion is hot!!!

  • @TotallyTwilightFreak at least his shirt is magic.. it's glowing 0--o

  • @afhplover so true :L

  • He sound Irish to me and I live in Ireland.

  • @maroxiadeepdive well then theres something wrong with you

  • Disney actually could do a good job on the movie. Pirates of the Carribean was good. The thing is, the movie-department of Disney didn't make this, the book-department did. They obviously have less money than the movie-department, look at the actors (cheap!) If they'd let the movie-department do this it would've probably been a lot better! But i think Artemis Fowl is not big enough for that.. sadly! :(

  • I didn't get farther than :29. Why would Artemis show you his full house? ._.

  • @eggsistoast Disney doesn't destroy all books. They didn't ruin Rick riordan, who wrote the kane chronicles and a few of the Percy Jackson books after Disney took over Hyperion.

  • ARTEMIS FOWL HAS BACK HAIR GELL!

  • @TheCharlieTime who knows about the movie, but Artemis is supposed to be 19 in the latest book I believe.

  • This guy looks to old to be Artemis... also, i dislike the way they did the accent...

    Artemis Fowl seems like one of those things where you see it perfectly in your mind, but it doesn't translate smoothly to real life.

    Oh no, Hyperion and Disney got a hold of these books? But i liked Artemis Fowl the way it was before!

  • OMG, Arty looks like Dylan Moran. O.o

  • He... didn't sound very Irish. And why is this Disney T_T

  • Do they think english people are intelligent sounding?
