Going Rogue

Show Notes

Artemis Fowl is many things: a character, a book, a best-selling children's series, a long resident of development hell and a massive investment in a potential franchise. But as a film, it basically doesn’t exist.

If you want to support the show, we have a Patreon! You can subscribe for bonus episodes, plug-free versions of the show and the ongoing production of the show in general! Don't do it through the iOS app! Cannot stress that enough!

If you have any questions about this insane film please ask them! I will do my best to answer since I had to cut of lot of very minor details because they "sounded unhinged", "were visual nitpicks on an audio medium" and "made the episode longer than the movie".

You can follow the show on Bluesky or tumblr @goingroguepod, or for slightly less hinged content, follow @tansyg.bsky.social on Bluesky. If you want to get in touch, you can email [email protected] but please don't do that if you don't like the show just keep that to yourself!

Endings are tough. But they tell us a lot about what a storyteller, or a company, values.

Without the edit, there is no film. Without Marcia Lucas, there is no Star Wars.

Star Wars Episode IX is often dismissed as a film made by committee, but with its constant on-set rewrites, loose improvisational style and hyperactive camera movement, it’s very much a J.J. Abrams film.

It is a truth, universally acknowledged, that any criticism of J.J. Abrams’ work must discuss the Mystery Box. Check out Jon McCoy’s Episode IX Visual Sketchbook - it’s really fuckin cool! Also while you’re at it, Phil Saunders has also shared a heap of his work on the film with explanations of the process AND exact dates that really helped me piece together the timeline on this one.
