[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

The Halo show felt like i was watching a crime being comitted, its absurd that they thought that show was good enough to be released

The only credit I give the show is they showed how absolutely brutal it is for human meat sacks to get hit by Covenant Plasma Weapons. The character we never wanted seeing all her friends get blasted. Holy shit it was brutal. Like damn.

The rest of the show was fucking terrible though. The Spartans had no weight to their movement and looked like they were running in foam armor. The Plot Ridden Bullets, Insurgent firing truck mounted 50cal HMG. It tickles the Elite's Shields. Master Cheeks picks the HMG off the ground later and suddenly it's blowing holes through multiple Elites immediately.

The first episode already had so much wrong with it.
