[HATED] Adaptations done intentionally without help from the source

[u/Chill0000]

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 art team honestly nailed almost every part of the design of Halo, the weapons, armour and covenant aliens are all super well done. The prophets CGI in particular was quite impressive and very accurate. It's a shame they were attached to such a shit project though.

i don't know about the Elites CGI tbh.
Halo: Forward until Dawn had way better CGI

It actually turned into a slasher movie for a moment when the invisible Elites were making their way through the Barracks. It gave a real sense of just how dangerous those Elites were.
