This is also what I was warning about. The show is good enough that'll fly by most audiences (because let's be honest, it's not bad compared to Halo or Resident Evil shows), even Critikal did the same.
If you want to gain traction, you need to focus on the lore erasure part that a LOT of the Fallout youtubers focus on of the New Vegas and parts of Fallout 1 + 2. Basically just show how the NCR was more badass, the Brotherhood where better but in a weaker position West Coast due to the NCR and how Vault-Tec didn't drop the bombs because..capitalism.
Show them there's a better story which is New Vegas and that's why you're mad, talking about casting decisions will get you nowhere on this one.

"Adaptation" arguments are the most easily dismissed and will get you just a little. You might get them to say "yeah that sucks" at the best, but no actual outrage.
The MCU has already poisoned that entire well with people ready to completely mock you for caring about source material, in fact. If Drinker is anything like the other EFAP people, of which he is am alumni that owes much growth to, then they actively reject the very notion of an adaptation owing anything to what its adapting from.
This nigga never watched Eragon. Try making an adaptation that successfully ruins nearly every single possible plotline the book has setup for the sequels entirely for brevity. And still ending with the expectation of those sequels.
Also the Artemis Fowl movie never got a physical release and was deleted from streaming years ago. So there exists no actual legal copies of it. Just for your knowledge.
This isn't adaptation though, it's meant to be an entry in an existing continuity and there's nothing that it is adapting beyond the setting itself. It was even sold as sequel in a different medium
The show was already discussed here, days ago. Honestly what u/SoctaticMethod1 wrote wasn't much different from what Drinker said.

This still isn't the WORST adaptation I've ever seen, I owe that to Disney and Artemis Foul.
I refuse to watch that film and want to erase every copy of it..

There's one scene that stuck with me from that, and it's haunted me ever since.
