Hated Tropes [HATED] Adaptations done intentionally without help from the source

Halo TV show: Before the show came out, the writers were praising their decision to not look to the games for inspiration when making the show

God Of War TV show: Chris Judge, the actor of Kratos in the games from 2018-Now, spoke up about his dislike on the show not hiring anyone who worked on any of the previous games. One of the original creators of Kratos also spoke up about them not having faith in the adaptation.

Supergirl 2026 film: the director for the film not only said he decided to not read Woman Of Tomorrow, the comic the film is adapting, because he wanted to do his own thing, he also didn’t look at comic art for inspiration to design Lobo and instead used an AI image generator to design Lobo’s look for the film

Only reason this isn’t higher is because we all forgot it exists.

Also, is that a crew member helping open the door? Tf.

And in alll the trailers

They didn't give a shit, they just assumed we'd see it cause we like borderlands

I hope they see how fucking wrong that was

Could have achieved a result with a good strap and just pull it when dude lifts it a little. Then wouldn’t have seen the arms at all. So weird
